Aries
If you aren't careful, your cautious nature could hamper your progress today. Taking too long to ponder all your options, worrying that something could go wrong, and dithering about when to make your move are all sure ways to miss out on a very exciting opportunity. Today is a day for action! Whether it's an invitation to a coffee date or a new work project, say yes!
Taurus
Some say that the international language is love; others say that it's music. Well, whatever the international language is, you speak it fluently today! With your charm, you could walk into a room where no one speaks your language and still make a fantastic impression. So don't fear that you will be a fish out of water today. Your smile and your wit will help you fit in everywhere you go.
Gemini
It's just not enough for you to connect in a lighthearted way with a new person right now—you need deeper connections, and you must fulfill this need. Get as close as you can to this person, but also be very conscious of the fact that sometimes your exuberance and charm can overwhelm shy people. Watch this person for signs of weariness, and you'll get a sense about when you need to take a step back.
Cancer
Be extremely wary of people who broadcast their private problems to the world. Ignore them as much as you can—even negative attention will be a reward for them. This airing of dirty laundry might titillate some gossipmongers, but you don't have time for it. Steer clear of the ugly melodrama that some distastefully indiscreet people are stirring up, and just stay focused on your own life.
Leo
Someone else's boundless energy will inspire you today—you aren't usually a follower, but today you might want to make an exception. If you model yourself after this dynamo, you'll be surprised by how much you can get done—and how much fun you'll have doing it. People like to be around productive people, so don't be surprised if quickly checking things off your to-do list earns you attention from some not-so-secret admirers.
Virgo
The big burst of energy you get in the middle of the day will be a mixed blessing. You'll want to rush ahead because you'll feel as though you have everything you need to get everything done, but you really can't just yet. Someone is standing in your way today, and although this person isn't holding you up on purpose, he or she will be an obstacle you can't work around—no matter how hard you try. The good news is that this pause in the action will make the result that much better.
Libra
Try to be as expressive as you can today—physically and verbally. Being able to convey your feelings in many different ways will help you connect with people in a more significant way. So when something great happens to you, smile broadly and proclaim how happy you are. And if something stinks, wear your displeasure on your face and make it known that you are not satisfied (with all your customary tact, of course). Luckily, you will be very satisfied today.
Scorpio
Take a look inside your closet today, and count the items you never wear. Then see how many of those unwearable pieces of clothing were impulse purchases. And then keep all those closet-bound outfits in mind when you see something that you just have to have. Think about all the money you'd have now if you had resisted spending it on trendy items that went out of style way too soon.
Sagittarius
Express your admiration for someone in an unexpected way today. Anyone can write a glowing email or send a thank-you card—you should try to go above and beyond, and try to really make an impression. Send a gift; it doesn't have to be extravagant or expensive. Just give this person something he or she needs because he or she gives you something you need on a daily basis: inspiration.
Capricorn
It's time for you to see the world as a big, beautiful ball covered in happy people who want only the best for one another. Sure, the morning news might poke a few holes in your idealism, but there's no law that says you have to admit that the world isn't as wonderful as you want it to be. Pretending that things are unwaveringly rosy gets easier the more often you try it—and although it's not good to live in denial, it's okay to visit it every once in a while.
Aquarius
Check in with your closest friends today, because one of them might have some rather interesting information that has something to do with paperwork, money or a major purchase. Sometimes the people who love you have a tendency to get a bit too involved in your private life—but you know when to listen to them, and when to pretend to listen to them. This time, what a loved one has to tell you is something you should consider.
Pisces
There's a fine line between being charmingly talkative and being a blabbermouth—you know how to balance on that line, but not all people do. Keep an eye out for a friend who is speaking in an indiscreet way today. Step in and either prevent this person from making a big gaffe or (if you're too late) help him or her dig out of an awkward hole. Your quick thinking and quirky wit can help everyone move on to better topics and better ideas.
