Your Daily Horoscopes for Thursday, February 13th

We’re not satisfied with doing everything the same old way today as doors open, revealing exciting new pathways through familiar territory. Luckily, we aren’t restrained by tradition now as the rebellious Aquarius Sun agitates unconventional Uranus. Although the lively Leo Moon harmonizes with Uranus, further enticing us into the future, unrestrained enthusiasm can lead to trouble. Like it or not, there are lessons to be learned from the past.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You naturally assume you’re ready for nearly anything but you might have some lingering doubts today, even after you say yes to an intriguing offer. Perhaps your uncertainty stems from being acutely aware of the consequences of your actions. Or maybe you are reminded of a past event when your immediate reaction created more trouble than it was worth. A touch of self-restraint now could be enough to prevent your world from turning upside down.

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

You might have to shift your attention to an unfolding domestic drama now that the Moon is visiting your 4th House of Home and Family. You may be so busy at work lately that you’re not spending sufficient quality time with your loved ones. Let those who are special to you know how you feel or they could end up wondering if you care anymore. A little bit of authentic affection goes a long way to make everyone happy.

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

Your unrealistic expectations about your schedule encourage you to think that you can take time for your own pleasure today. But it’s easy to set yourself up for failure now by wanting too much. Big ideas must be pared back over the days ahead or you might hit a wall of resistance. It’s better to constrain yourself voluntarily than to wait for unpleasant circumstances to suddenly stop you in your tracks. Choosing a more responsible approach improves your chances for success.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

Demonstrating your love with tenderness is usually easier than making grandiose gestures. But you could do things differently today, snagging someone’s attention by overplaying your part in a drama. After all is said and done, you may feel embarrassed, wishing you hadn’t made a scene. Although there’s no need to overstate your feelings now, you don’t have to apologize if you do. There’s nothing wrong with sharing your heart.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

Avoid the temptation to express yourself in a melodramatic way today because you could shock others if you go too far. Although everything feels urgent now, it’s wise to turn down the volume on your intensity. Thankfully, the drama will begin to subside after tomorrow’s Leo Full Moon, yet you may end up wishing you kept some of your secrets to yourself. Remember, you don’t have to share all of your fantasies; some things are better left to the imagination, instead.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You might experience an exciting epiphany today that empowers you to break free from an old pattern at work. Unfortunately, endless logical analysis isn’t a viable substitute for direct action. Even if you know what to do now, you’re still limited by how you see yourself in relationship to others. Experiment, be outrageous and imagine possibilities you haven’t yet considered. Believing in magic can make amazing things happen.

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Making the most of your time today is the most meaningful gift you can give to yourself and others. Be courageous; stepping into your leadership role and setting a good example are the smartest ways to give your coworkers an inkling of what they can do. If you settle for less now, then that’s what you’ll inadvertently pass along to everyone else, diluting the shared experience. Seize the moment and your allies will happily follow along.

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Your need for peace and quiet comes and goes in waves today, but you can’t justify an escape until you meet your previous obligations. Of course, you are naturally inclined to honor the promises you made to help others, instead of just taking care of your own needs. Although it may seem impossible at first, you can have it both ways now if you’re willing to take a risk. A radical approach might be the key to finishing up your work early, leaving time for your well-deserved rest and relaxation.

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Although you technically agree that rules are necessary to maintain order, it’s still fun to dream far beyond the accepted norm. Unfortunately, you don’t like to feel restrained by the same laws that govern everyone else. You are so enthused by the potential of the moment now that you may not even consider what’s right and what’s wrong. Luckily, cosmic energy is on your side, so taking a calculated risk is a good idea today; you can always philosophize about it after the fact.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You want to demonstrate how intuitive you are now and might go out of your way just to let others see you in action. Sharing your inner process with those closest to you can be exhilarating, but the interpersonal dynamics may grow complicated if you are insecure about your current approach. It’s not time to worry about anyone’s reaction to your quirky behavior. Just trust your hunches today; they won’t likely steer you wrong.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You are short on patience now, especially with those who want your attention so badly today that they do a song and dance to get it. You just can’t understand why anyone would need to put on such a performance since you are usually so good at recognizing people’s contributions. Although you prefer to ignore someone’s selfish behavior, you may be better off today indulging others for the sake of group harmony.

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You have a lot on your plate today, but your coworkers might not be aware of your strong commitment to get things done. Your hard work may go unnoticed at first but don’t let your need for recognition be your only motivation. Still, receiving praise is satisfying, as long as you don’t quit before your tasks are completely finished. Satisfaction from a job well done can be surprisingly sweet.

Daily Horoscopes for February 12th

We may not be very forthcoming with our feelings this morning. Ironically, it’s tempting to get angry with someone else for being emotionally distant. However, the timid Cancer Moon shifts into expressive Leo at 2:15 pm EST, prompting us to say what’s been on our minds. Unfortunately, a tricky lunar alignment with retrograde Mercury can muddle messages and manifest misunderstandings. Thankfully, clarity begins to return as soon as tomorrow.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You can work yourself into a state of high anxiety this morning, but luckily, your moodiness dissipates later in the day. Paradoxically, you might even feel strangely optimistic without anything actually happening to support your belief that things are improving. Nevertheless, a sudden adjustment in attitude is exactly the catalyst you need to shift your life into the next gear. Don’t be afraid to plan for the future; it will be here sooner than you think.

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

You could spend much of your day revisiting problems that developed over the last few weeks. Thankfully, your frustration is fading, but the desired results are still beyond your grasp. Oddly enough, your confidence remains unshaken and you’re sure things will turn around without a lot of extra work on your part. Taking the easy way out is tempting, but a proactive approach to change can make the difference between failure and success.

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

Your current plans may not be progressing as quickly as you wish. You might even be slightly annoyed with someone who has been standing in your way, but now they appear to change their behavior and help, rather than block, your efforts. Holding a grudge is ill-advised; accept the energetic shift as a positive sign that you’re on the right track today, even if your goals still seem far out of reach. A grateful outlook serves you well.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

Although you may feel mired in an emotional conflict, circumstances begin to change this afternoon, prompting you to realize that you have less time than you thought. Don’t be lazy; if you have something to say, go ahead and speak your piece, even if your declaration might spark an uncomfortable discussion. Getting your feelings out into the open today helps to get the ball rolling and sets the stage for resolution. Now is better than never.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

The waiting game is over; it’s time to make your move. Perhaps you have recently tried a variety of tactics to push a pressing relationship issue along, but to no avail. Now that the Moon is returning to your dramatic sign, the winds of change are blowing up a storm. There’s no reason to resist the movement, even if you aren’t sure which direction you’re heading. Be bold and ride this cosmic wave for all it’s worth.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Even if you have something important to say to a coworker today, you may end up keeping your thoughts to yourself. Although you might imagine shouting your message from the top of a mountain, the Moon’s shift into your 12th House of Privacy tells a different story. Sharing the news with grandiose declarations isn’t your style, and could leave you with pangs of regret. Focusing on the details is still the most effective way to make your case. Your silence says volumes to those who bother to listen

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

You can see potential in things that other folks miss today, and it’s up to you to use this special vision to your advantage. Ultimately, it’s your innate creativity that enables you to discover these magical possibilities. Now it’s time to jump in and play an active role in manifesting results. However, don’t try to do everything all at once or you might burn out too quickly. Follow your intuition and turn your dreams into tangible reality.

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

It’s about time that you receive the credit you deserve for all the work that you do. However, the current recognition might not be about your regular duties at home or on the job. More likely, you’re being acknowledged for what you bring to the world by who you are when you show up. It may be nearly impossible for others to put this special quality into words, yet you will know you are appreciated now by how people act in your presence. Don’t push away the love; receive it with a gracious heart and a touch of humility.

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Your future is beginning to open up and your dreams appear a bit closer than before. Nevertheless, you are still aware of how much planning there is yet to be done. Thankfully, you are feeling more energetic day by day. Additionally, it seems as if the mental fog is lifting and your thinking is growing sharper. It’s a good idea now to map out your schedule for the next few weeks. Make the necessary commitment, figure out the logistics and get to work today.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Today’s dilemma might stem from not knowing how much to tell others regarding your latest news. You may be really excited about a new project, plan or relationship, but aren’t ready to say anything until you are more certain that everything is moving along as you wish. Nevertheless, it might be smarter to share your enthusiasm now, along with your concerns. The feedback and support you receive can help you more than you think.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Although you may start your day in a quiet frame of mind, an enthusiastic friend could coax you out of your seclusion. Perhaps you thought that you would simply go about your day, doing your work and minding your own business, only to discover a much different path in store for you now. Don’t resist an enticing invitation just because you have too much work to do. You can always come back and tie up loose ends later on. Surrendering to a surprise might just be your best option today.

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You’re standing at the edge of a clearing, yet you can’t tell which way to go. Fortunately, you will step through this window of opportunity as your direction becomes apparent over the next few days. In the meantime, make the most of where you are now by paying attention to every little detail. Observe how others respond to you, but don’t forget to also tune into your own creative process. Remember, if something occurs in your imagination, there’s a good chance it can also happen in your real life.

Enhanced by Zemanta

Your Daily Horoscopes for Monday, February 10th

We may have less on our minds today and the reduced mental noise means we can get in touch with deeper feelings. In fact, we’re not as tempted to waste words by engaging in idle chatter once the Moon enters emotional Cancer at 1:32 am EST. Instead, our tendency is to clam up and withhold controversial ideas. It might take a few days to overcome our resistance because the Sun squares constrictive Saturn tomorrow, pulling in the reins of control.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Your head and your heart are in the middle of their favorite argument about which one has the best advice to give. You are torn between following your rational logic and surrendering to your irrational feelings. But even after you have analyzed the situation and determined what’s best, you are still intrigued by yet another direction. Ironically, there may not be a single correct answer today, regardless of which approach you favor. Explore all the possibilities while keeping your options open as long as you can.

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

Try not to be overly dramatic when you tell someone what you think today, for you can quickly lose credibility if you overstate your position. Stick to the facts and you should be able to sway others to agree with your point of view. Often your greatest obstacle is your own stubbornness. Luckily, your willingness to compromise now is a relief for everyone involved. Establishing common ground right from the start is the fastest route to success.

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

If you run into a wall today, your unexpressed emotions might actually prevent you from having your way. However, don’t give up; there’s no need to stop yet. You can still reach your goals, but you first have to process your repressed feelings that aren’t yet integrated into your daily life. Acting from your heart now can increase your chances of getting what you want as long as you’re honest with yourself.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

Your feelings grow too big to hide as the reflective Moon returns to your sign very early this morning. You may be convinced to disclose something you haven’t yet shared, even if revealing your desires makes things temporarily awkward. If you are keeping any secrets, use this time to clear the air. Think about the potential of the weeks ahead and then set the record straight while you can. There’s no time like the present to be your authentic self.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

Although avoiding the chores on your list today isn’t a great idea, some quiet time for reflection can also be rejuvenating. You will be happier and more productive if you balance your responsibilities with a bit of relaxation. But don’t attempt to escape your obligations completely or you could regret it sooner than you think when you’re required to go back and finish up your work.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Balancing your desire to spend time with your friends against your need to be alone can be quite a tricky dance today. However, you could choose to sit back and be the quiet one in the group, since you really don’t need to be talkative to enjoy yourself. However, no matter what you do, integrity is crucial because you are setting a long-term trajectory these days. Even if you don’t want to reveal too much, speak your truth by saying what’s in your heart.

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Although you’re usually not the one to be the mothering type, you’re inclined to take care of anyone that comes into your sphere of influence today. However, you can be generous to a fault, so be careful that you don’t suppress your anger just for the sake of approval. Everyone around you will feel more comfortable if you are honest in your relationships, even if there needs to be some intense discussions along the way. True intimacy is possible if you’re willing to keep it real.

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You may be drawn to a romantic notion of getting away from it all, yet this kind of escape might sound better than it really is. Nevertheless, a well-planned trip makes sense now. There’s no need to be impulsive about it, but the sooner you get out of town for some rest and relaxation, the better. If possible, invite someone else along on your adventure, since the energy you receive from others on your upcoming excursion can fuel your enthusiasm.

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

A touch of tension hangs in the air this afternoon and discussing your discomfort may just add to the uneasy atmosphere. In fact, even working closely with others now could agitate your frustration. Ironically, you don’t really want to be alone today, but it still might be better to withdraw for a little while. If you begin to lose patience, taking a practical approach will help you keep everything in a healthy perspective.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Although you might feel as if this is a great day to try an innovative approach to a project at work, don’t lose sight of the more mundane aspects of your creative skills. It could be a real challenge to get others to support your ideas if they don’t fit into the current plan. Thankfully, you have the amazing ability to transform your thoughts into actions now. If you don’t waste energy doubting yourself, you can accomplish a lot more than you expect.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Your secret agent lifestyle has outlived its usefulness at work and keeping something hidden might only make you feel uncomfortable now. It’s time to open up and spill the beans. There’s no need to hang on to the past any longer. Push yourself out of your comfort zone by setting new ideas into motion today. Others could appreciate your honesty so much that they follow your example, giving you the perfect chance to lend a sympathetic ear.

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

An emotionally charged atmosphere presents problems today. You may even become so involved in a heated discussion now that you have a hard time separating your feelings from those of everyone else. Your sensitivity is valuable, but only if you are willing to see things realistically. Rely only on the facts that you can check. But don’t close down your imagination for too long; it will serve you well again in just a few days.

Daily Horoscopes for Wednesday, February 5th

Life seems a bit tamer after the past few high-energy days, but we quickly relax into the new emotional terrain once the Moon enters laid-back Taurus at 4:46 am EST. We may even be more peaceful with pleasure stemming from simple activities like walking in nature, reading a book or just spending time with friends and family. However, talking about our feelings might lead nowhere as messenger Mercury grinds to a halt and turns retrograde tomorrow.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Although you wish your life was less complicated today, you might have more work to do before you can separate yourself from the noise you have created. Your path may seem clear now, but it still could take quite a bit of determination on your part to reach your destination. Be careful not to slip into denial and fall back into complacency. There are changes that need to be made, so don’t give up the good fight. Your passionate persistence is your secret weapon.

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

No matter how much you might want to focus on your feelings, it’s challenging to stop your mind from spinning around in circles today. You are thinking about so many different things and the thoughts continue to fly by, just out of your grasp. Frustration arises if you attempt to make use of your fantastic ideas, but there’s no reason to be overly concerned about productivity for now. Instead, just sit back and enjoy the show.

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

You don’t want to wait quietly on the sidelines and let something important happen without adding your two cents. In fact, you may be so sure of your convictions today that you are driven to speak your mind whether or not others want to hear your opinion. Keep in mind that you will be better off in the long run if you limit your comments to only the most critical issues. Your words will have more impact if you choose your battles wisely.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

Your flexible attitude allows you to temporarily minimize an unresolved issue today. You can easily let go of emotions that were bothering you in return for a bit of spiritual refreshment and social enjoyment. However, you might not be ready to relinquish all your feelings, but at least set them aside for a while without judging anyone too harshly. Spending some quality time with your friends or family is more restorative if your heart is fully open to the experience.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You may be lost in contemplation today, as you Lions drift off into a rather complex dreamscape. However, ignoring the interpersonal dynamics at work is not a wise move since the current situation could be complicated by someone’s unexpressed feelings. As much as you want to escape into your inner world now, you must meet your professional obligations before slipping away to explore your imagination.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You might have already scheduled some fun for yourself today, only to discover that nothing is going to happen quite as you thought. You can still enjoy yourself, but it won’t be without a bit of confusion creeping into your life. Bring yourself back to your center and shrug off the minor inconveniences or you could inadvertently make things worse. Remember the best way to minimize stress and impress others is to keep your sense of humor intact.

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

You can get all wrapped up in mental gymnastics now, even though your stoicism may prevent you from talking about your worries with others. You feel like you should be more lighthearted today, but there are serious issues that just won’t go away until you deal with them. Even with singular focus, resolution probably won’t come quickly. In the meantime, do something creative with your irritation instead of spreading it to others.

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Ironically, you are aware of life’s simplicity and its many complications at the very same time. With the evocative Moon moving through sensible Taurus today, your primary drive is toward experiencing pleasure. Yet, as a Scorpio, you always enjoy delving into a good mystery. Be careful if it appears that someone else can ameliorate your need for complexity, for this is just an illusion. Like it or not, your fate is completely in your own hands.

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Returning to the basics isn’t what normally motivates you, but simplification just may be the most critical theme in your life now. You are at a significant intersection today, and taking the on-ramp to the busy freeway might not be your best choice. You could have a very positive influence on your environment, but you must step out of the fast lane and onto the road less traveled so you can create the type of connections you want.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Rethinking your core assumptions or reinventing your image offers the best chances for success today. Since this transformational process may continue for a while yet, it’s wise to review and reevaluate last year’s accomplishments while they are still fresh in your mind. Strive to put closure on as many loose ends as possible over the next few weeks to make plenty of room for your future exciting endeavors.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Inner conflict may stress you out as you begin to reconsider a logical decision you recently made. Unfortunately, your feelings might not fall in line with your rational analysis today as you expected. Thankfully, your dilemma isn’t all that obvious to anyone else; nevertheless, a special person could come to your rescue now. Remain open to receiving good news from a friend or family member, for it can provide just enough hope to settle your angst and nudge you in the right direction.

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

Your current indecision gets in the way of finalizing your plans. Naturally, you want to do what is best, but your good intentions may go awry today, especially if your expectations are unrealistic. It’s difficult to say no to anything that sounds like fun, even if it isn’t very practical. Instead of needlessly complicating matters even more, rely on a second opinion from someone you trust before making any commitments now that you will later regret.

Enhanced by Zemanta

Daily Horoscopes for Tuesday, February 4th

We are eager to start something today, but getting a project off the ground may be more challenging than we expect. Although the enthusiastic Aries Moon strikes a background note of enterprising spirit coupled with impulsive behavior, we could run into complications from stressful lunar alignments with naysaying Saturn and go-for-it Mars. Additionally, confusion is in the air as cerebral Mercury prepares to turn retrograde on Thursday.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You are driven by your irrepressible emotions today, yet you can easily get in your own way if you push too hard. Reality is trying to tell you something now, but it may be nearly impossible to decipher the message. Observe the dynamics of this ongoing dance; if your efforts meet resistance, don’t waste too much energy trying to overpower the obstacles. Instead, go to the source of your feelings; you should start to make progress again once you take the time to figure out what you really want.

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

A recent change of plans might be a bit unnerving since you often prefer the comfort of the status quo over the uncertainty of the unknown. Circumstances have quieted down enough now for you to look at where you are going and to decide whether or not you really want to head off in this direction. Reassess your long-term goals, but allow current events to pull you back into present time where you are needed. Acting in a responsible manner doesn’t need to prevent you from dreaming about the future.

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

You’re ready to take a major step forward in your current effort to catch up on backlogged communication. However, you could run into trouble immediately if reality has a different idea about how you should spend your day. The tricky part is that you may not have enough time to avoid what’s coming your way, for the incoming curve balls are so unexpected. Thankfully, letting go of control at just the right moment makes life more enjoyable now. You can always return to your previous plans later in the week.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

You want to believe that it’s sufficient to just change your attitude and circumstances will respond accordingly, especially if you need some recovery time from a recent clash with reality. Going home, getting cozy and curling up with a good book and a cup of tea sounds like a perfect solution to all that ails you today. Nevertheless, you must take care of business first if others are depending on you. Balancing inner and outer needs makes the most sense in the long run.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You are all fired up and it’s challenging to talk yourself down from the ledge of enthusiasm today. Unfortunately, everything could grow more complicated than you wish, especially if you overlook a minor detail that comes back to haunt you. Or maybe someone is resisting your plans now, even if they won’t tell you directly. Address any issues that surface since they will only get harder to resolve as the days go by. Slow down and get things right so you don’t have to redo them later on.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Your sense of enthusiasm is often powered by your highly functioning analytical mind, which can see every little flaw, no matter how tiny it may be now. Others might be overwhelmed by so many details, but your brain is built for this type of situation. This is your chance to shine; let your associates lean on you for your expertise. Tell yourself that you are up for any challenge today. You can always rest in a day or two after your work is done.

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

No matter how hard you try, it still may be tricky to find a point of balance today. Intellectually, you know what you must do and you’re eager to head off in that direction. But others might believe that you should be embarking on a completely different path. Although you would like to take every point of view into account, it’s simply impossible to do so. Instead, be as considerate as possible to all involved. Nevertheless, if you cannot please everyone, at least be true to yourself.

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Life might be easier sometimes if only you could turn off your intense emotions and your incisive powers of perception. But, of course, you can’t. Anyway, it wouldn’t be like you to just gloss over the hidden reality of a situation, even if people around you find it difficult to face the gory details. Thankfully, you don’t have to pretend to live up to anyone else’s expectations if you set clear boundaries today. It’s easier to honor your emotions if you create enough room to contain them when they become too extreme for others to handle.

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Staying on the sunny side of the street is difficult today if your plans run into resistance from others. Unfortunately, no matter how much you focus on your own intentions now, other people may still rain on your parade. Nevertheless, don’t waste energy trying to outrun an emotional storm or to push away the clouds of doubt. The current turmoil won’t last, but, thankfully, your faith will.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You are truly amazing to watch once you make up your mind to overcome a particular obstacle. When others feel the pressure of circumstances building, they might collapse under the weight of responsibility. However, you Goats love to strategize how to use the current events as opportunities to improve your situation. Even if there are some minor speed bumps in the road now, this is an advantageous time to apply yourself diligently toward reaching your goals.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

There is an uneven progression to your accomplishments today. You might even get yourself all worked up now, only to initiate action and then discover that you wasted precious time running off in the wrong direction. Luckily, you can be very productive if you delay your response in order to avoid making too many false starts. Take a deep breath and visualize crossing the finish line; slow and steady wins the race.

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You may intuitively sense that big changes are moving slowly toward you. In the meantime, you have plenty to do to fend off more immediate opposition. The problem is that it’s difficult to find the real source of the blockages you now face. Even if the resistance is a direct manifestation of your own imagination, it can still be discouraging. Don’t give up until you accomplish what you set out to do. Your success depends upon your unwavering belief in yourself.

Daily Horoscopes for Monday, February 3

We are conflicted today between our attachments to the past and wanting to experiment with new ways to do the same old things. The pioneering Aries Moon joins independent Uranus to give us courage and prompt us to take risks. However, the Moon’s squares to Jupiter, Pluto and Venus throw a series of minor crises in our path as reality tests our willingness to work for what we want. Clinging to the familiar only makes life more complicated.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Your energy runs hot and cold today, making it tricky to choose your direction. One minute the adrenaline is flowing and you are full of excitement, ready to take on the world. But the next minute you feel like curling up and taking a nap. Carefully monitor your vitality so you don’t run out of gas before the day is over. Be sensible and don’t push too hard without considering your limitations. After all, you’re still human like everyone else.

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

You may be responsible for a task that makes you feel uncomfortable today. Keeping an open mind is required to overcome your current resistance to change; there is much to be gained by thinking outside of the box. The craziest ideas are the ones that might be the most effective now. Whatever worked in the past won’t necessarily work in the present, so find ways to let go of old habits and move yourself into the future. Embrace the unknown.

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

Slow down, take a long deep breath and let your body catch up with your mind. Your brain is buzzing with brilliance now; however, maintaining balance in the midst of all this excitement is essential today. However, without a stable foundation, the insights you have could fly away with the breeze. Luckily, staying calm enables you to put your intelligence to good use.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

Open your heart and expand your mind to accept the inspirational messages that are now available to you. Granted, you may find some of these new ideas to be rather unconventional. However, your current experiences could help you reach your destination, even if they don’t lead you to the answers you’re seeking. A little flexibility goes a long way when it comes to planning your future.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

Partnership matters may be confusing today because your feelings are all over the place. People appear and disappear suddenly now, and plans must be altered without notice. Opportunities arise one minute only to crumble in the chaos moments later. Thankfully, this can be a wildly exciting day if you appreciate the element of surprise. Go with the flow instead of attempting to run the show.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You might want to experiment with a new approach when working with others, since sticking to an old formula is not necessarily the most successful strategy. There are alternative methods which would allow you to accomplish more in less time with less effort. Treat this experience as a learning challenge which can stimulate your thinking and increase your productivity. Making the transition may slow you down at first, but the changes will pay off in the long run.

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Relationships may seem unstable today, especially if someone isn’t playing by your rules. However, upon closer examination, another person’s erratic behavior might actually be acting out emotions that you are suppressing within yourself. Instead of questioning what others want, explore your unexpressed desires for a while. Let your fantasies flow freely now before deciding how to follow up on the most meaningful ones. Remember, no one can take your feelings away from you, whether you verbalize them or not.

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Your passions can rise and fall with unexpected suddenness today, stirring up rough waters. Although you might be tempted to fight against the changing tides, don’t try so hard that you wind up frustrated. Unfortunately, you cannot manage the process; it’s a wild ride that requires a light touch and unwavering courage. Take advantage of these turbulent times by surfing the wave of change to see where the currents carry you. Letting go of control could be more fun than you expect.

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You don’t have to travel too far to discover the answers to big life questions today. The best advice you receive are the most down-to-earth responses. Simple solutions arise to what you perceive as complex problems. Sometimes you seek out more information than you need, but the most direct route is likely to be the best one now. Funny enough, the knowledge you seek may be found within.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Taking a financial risk isn’t your regular style, since you’re generally very practical about spending your hard-earned resources. Typically, you do copious research before shelling out large amounts of money for anything, but you might sidestep this safe strategy today. Of course, reckless behavior can get you into trouble, yet giving yourself permission to be a little more spontaneous now and again could work in your favor. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You are here to shake up the world today and even if that’s not your original intent, people may respond as if you’ve shocked them with a live wire. However, it’s in your best interest to act cautiously and carefully when involving others in your process if you really want to manifest lasting change. Paradoxically, a more methodical approach brings faster results. Rome wasn’t built in a day.

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

Someone can catch you off guard by surprising you with an unexpected gesture today. Although he or she might act as if it’s just a game, their intentions may be less friendly than you think. Taking advantage of you is certainly not a great way to build trust. Remember, you are not obligated to play with anyone who isn’t playing nicely. Don’t be afraid to set clear boundaries; a little privacy could be exactly what you need right now.

Your Daily Horoscopes for Thursday, January 30th

We’re standing on the threshold of change as today’s innovative Aquarius New Moon marks a shift in the cosmic energies. The next emotional cycle begins with the global Aquarius New Moon at 4:38 pm EST, inspiring concern with the future of the Earth and its inhabitants. The current intensity is reinforced by propitious Jupiter’s opposition to transformational Pluto. We have a chance to plant the seeds of intention, water them and watch them grow.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Your future is looking up as the spark of excitement returns today, but your current enthusiasm may carry you too far. Anyone who comes to you with schemes for world domination should wear yellow warning flags because the Aquarius New Moon can overstimulate your 11th House of Hopes and Dreams. Remember things appear bigger and better than they seem. Keep the optimism flowing, but proceed with caution.

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

You may be experiencing stress as different parts of your life present you with conflicting agendas today. It’s important that you do the best you can to honor the complexity. Don’t over-commit in your personal world just because you feel guilty about your time away from your home and family. The good news is that the Aquarius New Moon activates your 10th House of Career Objectives; projects started at work now might bring nearly immediate rewards in the days ahead.

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

It may be tough to finish everything on your plate because your intentions are aimed at a distant horizon. You feel as if you can change things which are usually beyond your grasp now that the Aquarius New Moon buzzes your 9th House of Adventure. It’s okay if your reach extends past your usual boundaries today, but be careful about grasping for the stars. Your positive attitude doesn’t guarantee your success but it’s still worth the effort. Ultimately, accomplishing your goal is less important than the lessons you learn every step along the way.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

You could have highly unusual ideas about how to best work with others today. It seems that you need assistance in your current project, but it isn’t merely about physical labor or analytical research. Instead, consider all the skills, tools or resources your allies have to bring to the table. The Aquarius New Moon falling in your 8th House of Deep Sharing reminds you to be open to whatever comes your way. Success may be closer than you think if everyone has the same goal in mind.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You can’t help but attract unusual people with today’s unpredictable Aquarius New Moon occurring in your 7th House of Relationships. Your romantic feelings can make the situation more complicated, but ultimately this may not be about lasting love. Be spontaneous and let the feelings flow without restraint or expectations. Be bold and creative in order to get the most joy from your current partnerships.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

It is time to set your ducks in a row, sort your recipe cards into alphabetical order and carefully match all your socks. Basically, you get to be as weird as you wish now when indulging in your organizational kinkiness. This is not for public consumption. It’s for your benefit only. Whatever little idiosyncrasy helps you to be more productive in the long run is worth the effort today. Honor what makes you unique as it is an integral part of what makes you shine.

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Find something totally different to do now — an intriguing activity that sets the tone for the days ahead. For example, if you’ve been thinking about enrolling in an art class or attending a live concert, invite a friend to join you and make it happen. It’s time to broadcast your creative, fun-loving side whether by phone, email or in person. Partaking in a spontaneous adventure today will inspire you to explore even further later on

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You might prefer to stay at home and attend to your own needs today but your social obligations won’t allow it. You dream of taking shelter from the noise of the outer world now that the Aquarius New Moon emphasizes your 4th House of Security. Don’t worry if you feel shortchanged in the department of rest and relaxation; you will have time for a full retreat soon enough. In the meantime sneak away and steal a few moments for yourself as circumstances permit.

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

The pace of your day grows more hectic as your calendar fills up and the overall complexity of life increases. However, the Aquarius New Moon in your 3rd House of Information reminds you that the details will come back to haunt you later on if you ignore them today. Your inclination may be to let the little things slide in favor of the larger picture, but there is much to gain now by bouncing back and forth between the big and the little.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Your personal finances are suddenly moved to the front burner and will continue to simmer for the next couple of weeks. Perhaps today’s Aquarius New Moon falling in your 2nd House of Money adds uncertainty to your cash flow, or maybe you are simply reconsidering a realignment of some of your material resources. Don’t try to fix everything all in one day. Make a plan to use the days ahead wisely in order to bring you closer to your fiscal goals.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

The intuitive flashes now coming your way might put you in touch with non-physical dimensions of the spiritual world. This isn’t all fun and games, for integrating your visions with your intellect may require some complicated work. Meanwhile, this New Moon in your unconventional sign could have you chanting spells like a wizard. Don’t be overly concerned if others think you are losing it. You will return to reality wiser for your journey after your magical mystery tour is over.

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

Your colorful dreams may seem quite vivid and real now — so real, in fact, they spill over into your waking life. Today’s Aquarius New Moon hums in your 12th House of Spirituality, amplifying your fantasies, even if they are not clearly defined. Make the time to settle into your imagination and explore the possibilities. Within the quietness of contemplation is a deep power that helps you to realize your full potential.

Enhanced by Zemanta

Your Daily Horoscopes for Tuesday, January 27th

There are consequences to sharing our feelings and the Moon’s entry into cautious Capricorn at 12:04 am EST warns us to weigh the benefits and risks before raising an emotionally charged subject. But the Moon runs into resistance from six planets, forcing us to address complex dynamics at home and at work. Planning ahead seems like a smart strategy, but we must be ready for the unexpected since we can’t control the flow of every conversation.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Expressing your best intentions might lead you down a dead-end street today. Unfortunately, you are not free to do as you please just because you mean well. Reprioritize your responsibilities and plan your day accordingly. You can still find time to enjoy yourself, but you’ll feel better about squeezing in some fun if you don’t have to worry about what you should have done earlier.

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

Even your boss might not be able to change your mind today, no matter how much he or she tries. Unfortunately, neither cool logic nor an emotional appeal seems to work. Ultimately, the choice is yours; nevertheless, it’s wiser to remain open to fresh input from someone who is an authority on the subject. Remember, you may have a great strategy in place, but there are still those who know more than you. Keep an open mind and a receptive heart.

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

Although you probably want to do your own thing today, you still wish you could meet other people’s expectations, too. However, your natural tendency to remain uncommitted gives way to a more immediate need to be practical now. Don’t waste precious energy fighting about the wrong issues. Think about the amount of effort you want to devote to a potential conflict and then do what makes the most sense in the immediate moment.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

All types of relationships are emphasized today as the Moon shifts into your 7th House of Partners, reflecting the feelings of those closest to you. Instead of responding to the current situation based upon your own needs, you must also consider what others want. Unfortunately, it can be a struggle to integrate someone else’s point of view into your perspective now. Nevertheless, compromise is still a smarter alternative to acting on your own.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You know exactly what must be accomplished today, even if it seems overwhelming at first. Your original plans may be quite different from what actually needs to happen, but avoiding your responsibilities isn’t a smart idea. Keep in mind that you still have to meet your commitments sooner or later. You can enjoy yourself more if you get them out of the way earlier in the day. Work now, play later.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Your approach to your job isn’t based only on effectiveness and efficiency today. Instead, you’re also likely to consider what brings you joy. Ironically, taking yourself too seriously now can actually be counterproductive. Although you’re often willing to narrow your focus and complete the tasks at hand, you might actually be more productive now if you are having fun.

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Taking care of your personal needs might require a lot of your time today and could interfere with your previous commitments. Unfortunately, you may not be able to get out of fulfilling your obligations, and it isn’t worth turning your current resistance into a major conflict. Instead of burying your desire to have a good time, just postpone the fun and games until you have demonstrated your willingness to be responsible.

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Your hectic schedule might not leave a lot of room for idle daydreaming today. Although you prefer having unstructured time by yourself for contemplation, you’re more likely to be pulled into a series of intense interactions that ultimately define your day. It may feel like you have a difficult path ahead, but there’s also a lot of good that could come out of processing your emotions through constructive dialogue. The give and take of conversation sets the stage for positive transformation.

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You may choose to stand up to a bully at work today because you are sure of your plan, even if it’s contrary to the general consensus. Your associates might be satisfied with finding the easiest way out, but you could be quite obstinate now in your intention to value truth over convenience. Although your idealism is admirable, you can easily take it too far. There’s no need to be so self-righteous that you can’t see the acceptable common ground you’re already standing upon.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You could get so carried away with your own ambitions now that you lose track of the most practical path and end up making a wrong turn. The Moon’s current visit to your hardworking sign can turn a simple task into a major project today before you even realize what happened. Don’t set goals that are so lofty they’re unreachable. Maintaining a sensible approach to your job is possible if you focus on the task at hand instead of the final destination.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Sometimes your fantasies are like scenes out of a science fiction movie and seem to have little basis in reality. Now, however, your dreams can hold the key to your immediate future because your imagination is being fed directly by your everyday experiences. Don’t try to rein in your thoughts; patiently let them wander as they will. Paying attention to the messages from your subconscious just might lead you to a wonderfully useful treasure.

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You might be so positive about what comes next that you find yourself defending your plans against someone at work today. It may feel as if others are being overly aggressive, but it’s more likely that you don’t want to face any negativity at all. Don’t avoid the facts just because it makes sticking to your strategy easier to justify. It’s crucial to acknowledge any errors in judgment as soon as possible any apologize if necessary. If you have missed something important, modify your strategy and get back to work.

Weekend Love Horoscope

January 24-26: Verbal Agreements

Maria DeSimone  Maria DeSimone on the topics of love, horoscopes, astrology

 

The Moon will pass through intense Scorpio on Friday and into Saturday night, making love a serious, all-consuming matter. If there’s someone you’re crushing on, it’s possible that you’ll courageously initiate a conversation on Friday thanks to a direct trine between Mercury and Mars. Actions speak louder than words but on this day you’ll be willing to speak up about your feelings and take action to help determine whether or not they are mutual.

On Saturday however, Mercury will square off with Saturn and you might suddenly lose your nerve so be sure to act on Friday. The Moon will move into Sagittarius late Saturday and remain there all day Sunday lighting the mood considerably.

Consider a date that involves something adventurous with your sweetheart. Whether it’ll be bungee jumping or dinner at an exotic restaurant is your call.

Your Daily Horoscopes for Wednesday, Jan. 22nd

How we handle our emotions today directly influences our current circumstances and helps to shed new light on them. The social Libra Moon reflects this message, reminding us that our feelings are interconnected with those around us. Meanwhile, an inventive Mercury-Uranus alignment inspires us to imagine radical solutions to old problems. Although we’re motivated to explore the possibilities, it may take longer to reach satisfaction than we wish.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You feel so tightly wound today that it’s a smart idea to find ways to blow off some excess energy. You might believe that you can remain cool in a simple interaction with a friend but if previously defined roles break down, engaging in a heated discussion is inevitable now. Unfortunately, losing your temper won’t make anyone happy. To avoid an unnecessary battle, consciously back down without trying to justify your position. Take the high road and give peace a chance.

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

You know that you have a job to do now, but you might not be able to figure out exactly what it is. Even if you lose focus on the logistics, don’t worry about regaining it yet. Instead of attempting to make sense of your dreams, give them time to reveal their purpose so their meaning will become more obvious. It doesn’t matter if your newly discovered aspirations are practical or not. Just let them grow and develop a life of their own.

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

You might allow a philosophy or a belief override your common sense now without even knowing it. This obsession can be a major source of trouble with those around you. Most often your ideas are useful, but today they tend to alienate you, reinforcing your differences and not your similarities. Thankfully, your good intentions and quick wit can save the day and lift others out of their doldrums. Hopefully, this energy positively reflects back on you, giving you an instant boost of confidence.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

You may assume you can change an old habit instantly today, especially if you spend time visualizing the desired outcome in your mind’s eye. Unfortunately, you might become overly possessive, attempting to hold onto your past if someone appears to be taking something away from you. Paradoxically, your resistance could create the opposite effect of what you want. Instead of struggling, give yourself permission to enjoy the present moment, no matter how the situation unfolds.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You can’t understand the motives of others very clearly because you are looking at the world through rose-colored glasses today. Your eagerness to defend yourself or someone you love is admirable, but your current intensity can complicate things even more. Don’t be so quick to fight for your beliefs now. Wait a few days to see if your position changes before escalating a mere difference of opinion into an open conflict. Expressing yourself creatively is a much better use of your time now, anyway.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Crossing items off your to-do-list is a piece of cake today with the Sun and Mercury both visiting your 6th House of Details. However, it’s nearly impossible to know why you are traveling along your current path, even if your intentions are clear. But this isn’t the time to question your choices or doubt your skills. Simple action is all that’s required now to make tangible progress toward your goals. A brilliant breakthrough is closer than you think.

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Connecting with the sources of inspiration in your life requires your undivided attention today. Fortunately, the Moon’s current visit to your sign continues to remind you that the matrix of support flows through family and those you love. However, if you’re overly idealistic about relationships now, you might experience disappointment. Remember, maintaining your integrity is ultimately more important than anything else.

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You’re living under a magical spell now that could date all the way back to your childhood days. Unfortunately, it’s difficult to tell which memories are based upon truth and which ones are fabricated in the depths of your subconscious mind. It can be helpful to be a detective when it comes to your heart because once you get to the bottom of the situation, your feelings are a lot easier to sort out. Today’s self-exploration might just lead to tomorrow’s treasure.

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Slowing down and establishing a sustainable pace today enables you to accomplish a lot more than you expect. In fact, it’s imperative to have your thoughts in order prior to beginning a new project. Take time to think your strategy all the way through to completion before you initiate any action. You can save yourself from a future headache by doing your homework first. Creating a winning plan on paper is a great place to start.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You want additional clarity before making an important financial decision today, and thankfully your current window of opportunity will remain open for a few more days. It’s challenging to respond to a professional dilemma now because a temporary loss of self-confidence can muddle your thinking. There’s no need to stress; your optimism will surely return soon. In the meantime, don’t make any sudden moves until you take the time to reevaluate your priorities.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You may feel a strong rebellious streak within and wonder if you’ll be able to keep your emotions in check today. You don’t want to lose your cool or do anything you might regret but your impulsive desires continue to intensify throughout the day. Meanwhile, the even-keeled Libra Moon enables you to pull off an amazing balancing act. Nevertheless, doing a bit of physical labor or engaging in a high-intensity workout now could be enough to calm your restless spirit.

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

It’s easy to get in touch with the magic of your imagination now that the radiant Sun and clever Mercury are traveling through your 12th House of Spiritual Mystery. Luckily, you also receive an energetic boost from go-getter Mars, operating behind the scenes from your 8th House of Intimacy. It doesn’t matter that other people may not even know that something special is brewing within your mind. Go ahead and let your fantasies run wild; your creativity will break through the surface soon enough.

Your Daily Horoscopes for Tuesday, Jan. 21

Everything may appear to fall into place now, but it’s not wise to raise our hopes up too high. The Moon’s shift into fair-minded Libra at 7:43 am EST enables us to view life more objectively. However, the Moon’s harsh aspects to communicator Mercury and stern Saturn reveal that we can fall short of our goals today. Fortunately, the Moon’s harmonious trine to the radiant Sun aligns our feelings with our actions and boosts our confidence.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You are quite eager to go along with your friends today because you can imagine the potential for new experiences wherever you look. Luckily, it’s natural to set aside your own agenda while doing what makes the most sense for everyone involved. But you must take time and figure out how to meet your needs, too. Unfortunately, trusting someone with your fate grows more difficult each hour that you hesitate. Find the magical balance between waiting for the right moment and missing your chance.

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

Establishing a brand new schedule for your diet and exercise routine might be tricky, especially if you’re secretly comfortable with your current state of affairs. Although you may be more certain about what you want, you still could find it hard to motivate yourself to change. Gathering more data is not necessary, for you probably have already done enough research. Anything healthy you do now can lead to an improvement in your physical well-being, so the sooner you take action, the better.

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

You might think that everything is rolling your way today; unfortunately, the logistics become more complicated as time goes on. Even if it seems as if there’s a lot of potential enjoyment just around the next corner, you can’t think about playtime until you’ve handled your responsibilities. Fortunately, once you’re finished with all your obligations, you’re game for just about anything. Work extra hard so you have time to pursue something more pleasurable later on.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

It’s a good thing if you’re feeling flexible today because you might have to change your plans more than once. Domestic tension may be heating up and you could be required to step in and mediate a family disagreement. However, the current problem isn’t about someone being right and someone else being wrong. Concentrate your attention on helping everyone involved reach common ground, even if their perspectives still differ on a fundamental issue.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You’re able to deftly navigate your way through a complex interaction with conflicting groups of people today. Although everyone is stubbornly holding on to a different set of interests, your intervention may be sufficient to energetically shift the entire dynamic. On another day, you might have just given up and let it all play out on its own. Fortunately, you can maintain control now while still appearing as if you don’t have your hands on the steering wheel.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Instead of doubting your recent decision any longer, accept your previous judgment as being logically sound. It’s already well past the time to consider whether or not to proceed. You have moved beyond the point of no return, even if you’re still experiencing uncertainty. There’s no need to question your choices again; consciously shift your awareness now from the subjective inner realms toward taking the next steps on your journey.

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Don’t waste time worrying about making a final choice today; instead use your current ambiguity to express yourself in a creative manner. Sometimes it’s critical to demonstrate your leadership style by behaving with clear authority, but now you are appreciated even more when you’re honest about your crisis of confidence. Be open and take whatever time is necessary to share your concerns rather than just leaving everyone in the dark.

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You are often tempted to sink into the recesses of your own subconscious mind. On occasion these inner journeys might be overwhelming and could even pull you into deep emotional turmoil. However, today you can dance around the edges of the shadows with ease as the Moon travels through your 12th House of Imagination. Let your feelings go and follow your dreams.

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You may unexpectedly find yourself in an intense power struggle when dealing with friends today. However, your relationships can be positively impacted by the social Libra Moon’s visit to your 11th House of Groups, where it alleviates some of the pressure you are experiencing. It doesn’t matter in the long run how you feel right now; just keep meeting your professional commitments with integrity and don’t worry about coming out on top. You currently have a better chance of succeeding if you remember not to take things so personally.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Leading by example may be especially challenging today as long as you continue to change your mind from minute to minute. It’s difficult to trust your decisions now, even if you have the intuitive data that you want to justify your choices. But don’t get hung up looking for a final answer to any one particular question. Just respond in the moment to the best of your current ability and be ready to move on.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You appear quite intense now that the willful Sun is traveling along in your sign. Luckily, today the Sun is receiving support from the Moon in fellow air sign, Libra. However, you could also feel dreamier than usual, as if your wishes have a life of their own. Be bold and take action as needed; just remember that karmic Saturn will judge you harshly if you believe that escape through fantasy is a viable option.

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You have a bit of magic up your sleeve, and luckily it is there today when you need it most. Even if you are required to deal with powerful people who might be investing in your success, there’s no reason to be intimidated. Just stay fully present with your truth because maintaining your integrity sets the stage for successfully managing issues that will demand resolution in the near future.

2014 Chinese Horoscopes

2014 Chinese Horoscopes

Take action and demand more in the Year of the Wood Horse

Stephanie Dempsey   Stephanie Dempsey on the topics of horoscopes, chinese, astrology, 2014

January 31, 2014, begins the Chinese Year of the Wood Horse. Horse years place great emphasis on hard work and tenacity. 2014 could present fantastic opportunities for business, travel and adventure, but these things will require decisive action.

In general, “you snooze, you lose” could be the action-oriented Horse’s motto. Furthermore, dishonesty and injustice may backfire spectacularly this Chinese New Year. The forthright Horse does not reward those who achieve their goals through underhanded methods.

The Wood element is ambitious, assertive and heroic. By aiming high this Chinese New Year, you can achieve much more than you ever dreamed. Settling for second best and sitting on the sidelines may result in terrible disappointment.

In a Wood year, you’ll fare better by working to improve your life, rather than trying to maintain the status quo. Apply for jobs that pay more, afford greater satisfaction and offer more leisure time. Demand more from your romantic partner, and don’t tolerate shoddy behavior.

Horse years are wonderful times to expand horizons, explore unfamiliar territory and get plenty of mental stimulation. If you’ve been thinking about taking or teaching a class, this would be a wonderful time to do so. Learning a foreign language and mastering a musical instrument are also favored activities in 2014. Beware of biting off more than you can chew, however, because Horse years can prompt people to overestimate their abilities. 

Money in the Year of the Wood Horse

Wood years favor businesses that encourage education, exploration and hip trends. Day cares, schools and universities should fare well in 2014. Publishing houses and media enterprises could also turn handsome profits. Ventures related to travel may experience an uptick in business. Airlines, car rental firms and train lines could do very well in the Year of the Wood Horse, as well as travel agencies. After a prolonged slump, fashion lines may see a dramatic improvement.

Institutions that require thoughtful planning and patience, such as banking, accounting, architecture firms, government agencies and technical research, could have difficulty in this spontaneous Horse Year.

If you want to increase your chances of getting a good job during a Wood Horse year, adopt an optimistic outlook. Those who are decisive, imaginative, compassionate and idealistic will fare very well in 2014. Learning to turn anger into kindness can attract better job offers. A positive attitude is more important than impressive skill sets during The Year of the Horse.

Love in the Year of the Wood Horse

The Wood Horse Year favors romance and adventure. Committed relationships that are showing signs of strain need careful attention. Impromptu outings, exciting vacations and spontaneous gifts can keep love alive throughout 2014.

Dull routines and predictable behavior could be the kiss of death for couples who refuse to mix things up! If you have children, hire a sitter so you can spend more quality time with your partner.

If you’re single, you could enjoy the dating scene this year. Playing the field could be really stimulating. Instead of going after a certain type, try dating as many different people as possible. This will help you narrow your choice for a life partner.

Ultimately, you may decide you’re having so much fun that you won’t settle down. Wood Years can make people a bit restless. In the event you do fall in love, it could be with someone who is introspective, imaginative and cautious. Neat freaks and critics could get on your nerves.

It’s safety first during 2014’s first Full Moon

Jeff Jawer   Jeff Jawer on the topics of horoscopes, full moon, cancer, astrology
 
 
 

The sensitive Cancer Moon opposing the pragmatic Capricorn Sun on January 15, 2014, is a dance between soft and hard. Inner needs dominate from the lunar side but external demands tell the solar half of the story. Both signs, though, share an interest in security. Finding ways to protect feelings while taking on the tough tasks of the world is the gift and challenge of this Full Moon. Stabilizing Saturn in Scorpio’s favorable connections with the Sun and Moon reward those who dig deeply to reveal untapped resources and unmet needs.

Aries (March 21 – April 19)

This Full Moon in subjective Cancer and your 4th House of Roots turns your attention inward. It helps you to recognize what you need to stay on the road to success. Emotional support is essential but getting it may require you to open up and expose your inner self. You usually try to avoid feeling vulnerable, but allowing this can lead to the kind of tenderness that supplies the drive required to reach your professional goals.

Taurus (April 20 – May 20)

Tender words and imaginative ideas flow freely with this sensitive Cancer Full Moon in your 3rd House of Communication. There is a risk of taking everything too personally, but if insecurities don’t get out of hand, greater intimacy and trust will follow. A more caring way of connecting helps to overcome differences of philosophies and long-range goals. Adapting to immediate circumstances reduces stress about the future.

Gemini (May 21 – June 20)

This security-conscious Cancer Full Moon lands in your 2nd House of Resources to shine a light on how you handle your assets. If a financial crisis flares up, slowing down your reaction to it will help you to make a wise decision. Stabilizing Saturn’s favorable aspects to this Sun-Moon opposition helps you to resist pressure from others with patience and maturity that earns you trust and, perhaps, more money as well.

Cancer (June 21 – July 22)

The Full Moon in your sign lights up your 1st House of Personality. Feelings come to the surface and your reactions to people grow stronger. Putting yourself first, though, is the message of this lunation. Reliable Saturn’s favorable angle to the Sun and Moon encourages self-trust and offers the confidence needed to pursue your desires with the focus, commitment, and persistent needed to get what you want.

Leo (July 23 – Aug. 22)

Imagination, intuition, and enlightenment are potential gifts of this Cancer Full Moon. It occurs in your 12th House of Spirituality where you benefit from having more private time. Communing with nature and engaging in prayer, meditation, or yoga are excellent ways to gain inner strength and support. Awakening to a higher sense of purpose can give new meaning to your life and clarify a big decision about work.

Virgo (Aug. 23 – Sept. 22)

This emotionally charged Cancer Full Moon lands in your 11th House of Groups where it can spur a crisis among colleagues or friends. While over-reacting isn’t recommended, it’s still healthier to express strong feelings than to keep them to yourself. You’re likely to find that others are having similar responses and that your honesty can be a motivating force that brings more passion and motivation to the team.

Libra (Sept. 23 – Oct. 22)

Professional matters are likely to take priority with this Cancer Full Moon in your 10th House of Career. While gaining attention and getting additional duties are possible, it seems that you need to be emotionally invested in your job to appreciate it now. If challenges arise at work, avoid making a big scene about them. Instead, take a long, hard look at the path you’re on and think about changing course if you’re not happy.

Scorpio (Oct. 23 – Nov. 21)

Visions of faraway places can make it difficult to feel settled and comfortable where you are. This emotionally charged Cancer Full Moon occurs in your 9th House of Travel. Restlessness is likely, which can be helpful if it motivates you to broaden your horizons. Connecting with people in distant locations and a sudden desire to advance your education are favorable potential outcomes of this soul stirring transit.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22 – Dec. 21)

Relationships could grow in intensity with this emotional Cancer Full Moon in your 8th House of Deep Sharing. Demanding partners — personal and professional — challenge you to meet their needs. Deciding which, if any, are worth responding to is part of this event is about. Another side of it, though, is for you to open up and expose your vulnerability. Doing so can earn trust and greater intimacy with others.

Capricorn (Dec. 22 – Jan. 19)

The cuddly and self-protective Cancer Moon opposes the Sun in your pragmatic sign. This occurs in your 7th House of Partners where it tests your ability to respond to emotional people. Being tender with others is essential to maintaining productive alliances. Their strong feelings might upset your plans, but if you’re willing to show some flexibility, current connections are deepened and new ones likely to occur.

Aquarius (Jan. 20 – Feb. 18)

Powerful feelings can have an effect on your work with this Cancer Full Moon in your 6th House of Employment. You could be feeling moody or insecure about your job, but the higher purpose of this lunation is to engage you more deeply in your daily tasks. You’re being pushed beyond your intellect to tap into emotions that don’t make immediate sense, but which might show you the way to happiness.

Pisces (Feb. 19 – March 20)

This could be a delicious Cancer Full Moon because it falls in your 5th House of Play, Creativity and Romance. Opening your heart can, of course, lead to some emotional excess, but it’s smarter and safer than suppressing your feelings. Finding an outlet to express yourself through love, art, and imagination is not only exciting, but can build your confidence and make you a more powerful presenter of your ideas.

Daily Horoscopes for Tuesday, January 14th

We’re tempted to withdraw emotionally today, but that won’t necessarily prevent us from being hurt. Self-protective tactics are more likely to reinforce artificial walls and increase our isolation. Although the sensitive Cancer Moon encourages caution when expressing our feelings, her stressful aspects with wild Uranus and potent Pluto can amplify nearly any drama. Thankfully, the turmoil begins to settle down after tomorrow’s Full Moon.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Your irrepressible frustration may create additional problems today. However, you could discover that the obstacles you’re facing aren’t about your external world. Instead, an old fear or a memory that suddenly resurfaces dampens your confidence. But don’t try too hard to resolve the issue immediately; even if you’re able to let go of the past, it will still take a couple of days to figure out what to do in the present

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

Your thoughts might wander around your imagination as your fantasies grow out of control. Even if you attempt to communicate a simple idea, it becomes apparent that the actual process is not as straightforward as you wish. Don’t worry; just ride the mental waves as if you were an eagle and then tell the stories about your journey when you return

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

You are eager to explain your new plan today, but the reflective Cancer Moon offers you enough wisdom to rethink a recent idea before taking it to the next level. Don’t worry if you get lost within your own mental maze now because your perceptions may be a bit fuzzy. Fortunately, your dreams are closer than they appear. Ironically, you can reach your destination faster if you slow down and take your time enjoying the scenery.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

You may be considering taking a personal holiday sometime very soon but still might want to do something by yourself today. However, even if you choose to retreat socially, you won’t likely become reclusive. You’re too enamored with others now to fully appreciate your solitude. Even if you’re unclear about how much activity to schedule into your life, be certain to leave room for the ones you love the most.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

It’s time to catch up on old business while you have the chance today. Whether you work on a project at home or take care of miscellaneous errands, you can get a lot accomplished if you concentrate on the tasks at hand. However, it’s not necessary to make a big deal about what you’re doing now; sometimes working behind the curtain is more effective than performing under the spotlight. Don’t try to please others with grand gestures; just set your priorities and get busy.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You might have to forget about gaining clarity now that mischievous Mercury is playing its trickster role. Emotions place a layer of subjectivity over your logical thinking, making critical analysis out of the question. Let your intuition guide you today, even if you don’t have all the facts yet. Contrary to what you might believe, there’s no need to struggle in your quest for the truth.

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Your message isn’t as important today as you might think. It’s the ideas you don’t share that determine the course of the day as domestic interactions are complicated by unspoken feelings. Ultimately, it’s much easier if everyone is emotionally transparent because having secrets only adds to the tension now. Keep your chin up even if you believe that there is no immediate solution to your current dilemma; your satisfaction is likely being delayed and not denied.

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You could be stewing in your own emotional juices today, without any obvious way to communicate what you’re feeling. Thankfully, you’re not isolated from others; it’s just that language doesn’t seem able to convey the necessary nuances of your inner experience. Try playing a song or reading a poem to express what’s in your heart, rather than attempting to explain yourself in awkward detail. Give your inner poet an opportunity to speak and clear the air of any lingering tension.

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You might like to escape from the hectic pace of today’s activities. Luckily, there’s a bit of magic in the air that enables you to cast a spell, suspending belief just long enough to slip into a parallel universe for a quick visit. If you keep up external appearances, no one will miss you while your mind is traveling to faraway places. Don’t lose your connection to the real world; luckily, you can be in two places at once.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You’re not amused today if your tight grip on reality seems to loosen. Nevertheless, it may be nearly impossible to maintain control in the outer world while letting go on the mental plane. Although this process might not be fun for you now, it’s valuable to learn that you can’t always run the show. Fortunately, your fears begin to subside when others assume more responsibilities and you can relax.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You may feel disoriented today from your deepening emotions, but there isn’t much you can do to avoid them. Rather than tumbling down the rabbit hole without a plan, harness your passions by engaging them, instead of denying them. Thankfully, you have sufficient brainpower to do almost whatever you choose. Just don’t forget to listen to your heart.

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

Your creativity is on the upswing today, but there are a few roadblocks along the way if you want to make something tangible. Your imagination is activated by Mercury’s presence in your 12th House of Fantasy, but it’s still difficult to mix your artistic nature with the logical approach that’s required to get your ideas across. Relying on rational thinking could be a sensible strategy for another time, but now it’s healthier to forget about productivity and just give yourself permission to dream.

Jeff Jawer  Jeff Jawer on the topics of horoscopes, full moon, cancer, astrology

The sensitive Cancer Moon opposing the pragmatic Capricorn Sun on January 15, 2014, is a dance between soft and hard. Inner needs dominate from the lunar side but external demands tell the solar half of the story. Both signs, though, share an interest in security. Finding ways to protect feelings while taking on the tough tasks of the world is the gift and challenge of this Full Moon. Stabilizing Saturn in Scorpio’s favorable connections with the Sun and Moon reward those who dig deeply to reveal untapped resources and unmet needs.

Maria DeSimone  Maria DeSimone on the topics of love, horoscopes, astrology

The Moon passing through stable Taurus on Friday, followed by an early morning sextile between Venus and Saturn, will create an atmosphere of realism and security in matters of the heart.

If you’re in a relationship then you’ll hold on tight to your lover, appreciating him or her for warming your body and soul. If single, it’ll be a good time to carefully consider what you want and deserve in love. After Saturday when the Moon glides into Gemini, you’ll be able to intellectualize your emotions easily.

Cerebral thinking certainly takes over by late Saturday afternoon when Mercury enters innovative Aquarius. Since Aquarius rules technology and the Internet, you might maximize the Gemini Moon and Mercury in Aquarius energy by setting up a profile on an Internet dating website or by initiating a conversation with someone you’re attracted to via a social media account. You have nothing to lose!

Your Daily Horoscopes for January 9th

We seek the simple life today but we may feel as if we’re anchored to the status quo. Although the steadfast Taurus Moon prevents us from racing into the future, we could grow frustrated with our inability to embrace change. Four planets in earthy Capricorn bless us with a sense of practicality, even as we resist what’s coming our way. Nevertheless, an innovative Mercury-Uranus alignment might suddenly free us from whatever holds us back.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

If you are ready to move a project ahead, don’t miss your chance to take advantage of the determination of today’s Taurus Moon. Although you might not zip along toward your goal, this cosmic energy is great for making methodical progress toward reaching your objectives. But don’t plan on crossing the finish line anytime soon. Simply fix a position on the distant horizon, carefully aim your intentions and inch closer to your destination. Slow and steady wins the race.

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

There isn’t anything wrong with having a vivid imagination, but your fantasies may fade just enough today to allow you to see the subtle differences between fact and fancy. The Moon’s visit to your sign enables you to reestablish your center of gravity, especially if you are feeling uncertain about the future. Don’t run away from your dreams, even if a more pragmatic approach might be comforting. There’s no need for your fear of the unknown to stand in the way of following your bliss.

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

You see opportunities for advancement through a very practical lens today, but you still might not be able to make much headway if you remain stuck in the past. You could be reluctant to share your concerns with anyone else because you believe that self-doubt grows if you give it voice. There’s no reason to push too hard now; slow your pace so you can put your clever ingenuity to work. Stay calm and trust the creative process.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

Everything feels a bit lighter today as an ongoing inner dialogue between two sides of your nature begins to subside. However, being released from one set of worries can quickly make room for a new list of concerns if you start to question your ability to carry out your plan. Don’t waste your mind-power judging yourself harshly before you even begin. Your journey may take longer than you think, so stay on track even if you’re not seeing the progress you expect right away.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

This isn’t the best time to visualize too far into the future or you could miss something critical in the present moment. The reflective Moon’s visit to your 10th House of Career prompts you to wonder what business opportunities will come your way this year. Making plans is a constructive activity as long as you also pay close attention to your current reality. If you’re looking too far ahead now, you might not notice a teacher or helper who is standing right next to you. What you seek may not be that far away at all.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Unchecked optimism is a significant part of your personal story these days and you are quite hopeful that things will only improve. Luckily, you can imagine a clear path that leads you to your preferred destination while the Moon moves through sensible Taurus. Take time to realign your priorities; the less energy you waste today, the better your chances of reaching your goal.

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

You may wonder why someone might not trust you now, but your focus shifts as the day progresses. You become less eager to play detective and increasingly interested in demonstrating your creative side. More than anything, you want to be seen in a positive light. Fortunately, you can find the happiness you seek without too much extra effort. Let go of old fears and trust your intuition. Be ready to gratefully accept the admiration heading your way.

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You might have a unique approach to dealing with someone who has a very different perspective than you. However, initiating a serious conversation today could alter the way you view the current situation. What anyone else thinks about you is less important than how you feel about yourself. But don’t try to avoid an intense interaction since honest dialogue is the best teacher now when it comes to acceptance and forgiveness, for yourself as well as for others.

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Your life is about to get busier again, and although you might try to resist at first, this should ultimately be a positive change. Your new schedule isn’t only about introducing more activities into your routine; you are also anticipating all that you can learn with so much going on. The overall intensity continues to accelerate, so conserve your energy. A steady work pace enables you to accomplish more with greater ease.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You have a strong sense of purpose now, even though you might feel a bit let down if you haven’t achieved your financial goals. Your stress level could escalate if you believe that you’re running out of time. You are driven to push hard today for you fear that you won’t have sufficient energy later on. Luckily, your fortitude is in better shape than you realize. Forge ahead with confidence; you may be happily surprised when you see how much progress you can make.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You are naturally adept at keeping your desires and needs to yourself. Even if others don’t realize your real intentions now, they’re about to find out as chatty Mercury leaves your 12th House of Secrets in a couple of days and pushes into your 1st House of Personality. In the meantime, visualize your new direction to prepare for action. You won’t reach your goals immediately, but you should notice a positive energetic shift within a few days.

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You can label your process however you wish, but the fact remains that you’re growing spiritually in ways that will continue enriching your life for years to come. However, your more pragmatic side encourages you to question the value of any impractical endeavors today. Don’t panic; the answers you need will appear just in time for you to start your next magical journey.

Your Daily Horoscopes for January 2nd

We may be annoyed that the holidays are over, but heading back to work today is not a valid reason to be angry. Nevertheless, the responsible Capricorn Sun forms a harsh square with warrior Mars today, increasing the potential for petty ego skirmishes. Our adrenaline based fight-or-flight response might get the best of us, even if we know what to do. Meanwhile, we grow more hopeful once the Moon shifts into futuristic Aquarius at 12:02 pm EST.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Obtaining what you want today may be elusive if your frustration escapes its container and spills over into your world. Unfortunately, it’s too late to enroll in a stress management class. If you are feeling isolated, don’t blame others. Striking out only pushes them further away. Go running or hit the gym, but whatever you do, make sure to sweat it out. If you discuss your feelings with someone you trust, be sure to approach the topic gently and treat your confidant with the utmost respect.

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

You might want to take off the padded gloves today and express your dissatisfaction. But remember that if you lash out (even if it’s only with words) you will have to deal with the consequences sooner than later. Don’t create conflict unless you are sure that you want to fully engage with the rest of the process. It may be much more beneficial to wage peace in your personal life rather than war.

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

Although you might feel emotional tension all around you today, you can be quite productive if you simply adapt to the changing dynamics. But if your need to share what’s on your mind prompts you to fight the wrong battles, you could end up exhausted and not any closer to your goals. However, engaging in physical activity or doing any type of hard work reduces the stress and increases your chances for success.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

This is no time to be harboring resentments because unexpressed emotions have a way of cycling back around and catching you off guard. You may like the idea of withdrawing socially for a while, though you still might engage in an intense interaction if you feel threatened. If stress triggers a confrontation today, be sensible and do whatever you can to keep the conversation civil. You don’t need to take the bait if someone is egging you on and looking for trouble. Hot tempers won’t lead to a cool solution.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

If you think your positive intentions are being blocked by someone today, remind yourself that the obstacles in your path aren’t necessarily only on the outside. Naturally, you can’t just snap your fingers and change the external circumstances. Nevertheless, you are fully capable of altering how you react to the situation. Instead of confronting anyone, take a few deep breaths and just get on with your own work. The less you push back now, the better.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Free-floating anxiety can be quite bothersome today, especially if you’re trying to overcome feelings of isolation. At first, it might seem as if the solution to your dilemma is to share your thoughts with another person. But he or she may not be as accessible as you wish. Consider participating in a team sport or putting in extra hours on a group project. Either way, don’t withdraw now; keeping your energy moving is the best way to lift your spirits.

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

A business or romantic partner may act too impulsively today, but your feelings don’t diminish in intensity even if you disengage from the situation. In some ways, you’re more frustrated since a lasting solution seems a long way off. There’s no reason to worry about fixing what has already happened. Just don’t make things worse now by losing your temper. Remember, you can still let your emotions flow without drawing others into your drama.

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You might try to hold back a flood of fiery passions today, but your feelings are likely to spill out into the open anyhow. Be aware that others may be overwhelmed by your emotional heat wave if you suddenly release your stored-up tensions. It’s time for you to do what Scorpios do best: transform the negative into positive energy. No matter what the question is now, the answer is love.

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You have an overabundance of physical energy, but you might believe that there’s no easy way to express it today. However, keeping your feelings locked up inside doesn’t work, either. You may mistakenly assume that if others knew what you are really thinking that they wouldn’t like you as much. Unfortunately, the truth is that by keeping secrets now, you’re inadvertently building walls where you don’t really need them. Be courageous; dismantle borders instead of fortifying them.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Hopefully, no one will push you too hard today since you are likely to respond in a way that is quite disruptive. Your internal sense of your own power is growing. Like a capacitor in an electrical circuit, you might hold back now until enough of a charge is built that your release has the desired impact. Just be careful not to act too soon or your recent hard work will be for naught. Patience is your best weapon of self-defense.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You are learning powerful lessons these days about what not to say. If you just express everything, the end result may be opposite of what you actually want. But withholding your feelings isn’t in your best interest, either. Whatever you share now can affect others, so it’s best to speak only after you reconsider your motives. Remember, it’s not just about you today; act for the greatest good for all involved.

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

Although you may feel residual anger from a recent situation, you are entering a new phase when you experience a wider range of emotions. This means that, assuming you pay attention to what’s in your heart, you can be more proactive in a positive manner rather than feeling like you are just at the mercy of the changing currents. Although you might not have control over your initial reaction to the current circumstances, you can choose how to respond. Demonstrate your good intentions by taking the high road whenever possible.

Your Daily Horoscopes for Saturday, December 21st

It’s time to take stock of our lives and set new priorities, especially when it comes to love. The Sun shifts into ambitious Capricorn at 12:11 p.m. EST, marking the Winter Solstice. Pleasure-seeking Venus (also in cautious Capricorn) turns retrograde this afternoon, requiring us to revisit unresolved issues about relationships and money. Meanwhile, the playful Leo Moon encourages us all to make the most of the holiday celebrations.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You are apt to receive more support from your friends now than you ever thought possible. In fact, it might even seem like too much, making you feel uncomfortable about not being able to repay the debt. However, you could let others love you and choose to accept it at face value. Set your fears aside so your friendships can deepen and bring more joy into your life. But your biggest problem today may be your impatience to make something happen. Forget about immediate change and bask in the love while you have the chance.

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

You are one to appreciate the sensible logic of reality, even when it isn’t telling you what you want to hear. However, you’re on a roll and you may not be so practical now. Perhaps you are riding the frenetic energy of the holiday season. Or, maybe it’s just your nerves getting the best of you. Either way, pay attention to the signs and slow down before you run out of gas. Racing around isn’t going to bring you the peace and happiness that you seek. Instead, take a more moderate approach based upon your most important values, rather than trying to impress anyone else.

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

Your enthusiasm may not overcome the obstacles appearing in your life now. You might as well understand that you’re not going to get everything done that you set out to do. Frustration can build, because you’re being much harder on yourself today than is necessary. It’s healthy to be motivated by serious intentions, but don’t go to extremes. Give yourself permission to slack off just a bit. Lighten up and enjoy the spirit of the season.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

Your finances may need some extra attention now or they could get in the way of your holiday fun. If you have put off your fiscal responsibilities, you must refocus your efforts and do whatever it takes to get your money situation back on track. Don’t wait for the new year; consider cutting unnecessary expenses as soon as possible. The good news is the best things in life are free.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

Relationship dynamics play a pivotal role now, especially those with your friends and colleagues. Although it may seem as if others want to help you, you might not be able to find the exact words to motivate them to take action. Instead of frustrating yourself by trying to change someone else’s behavior, focus on your own routine by establishing new habits to increase your efficiency. If you take care of your responsibilities without waiting for assistance, you’ll have more time to enjoy the holidays

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You may be fascinated by the tiniest details of your life, but as a picky Virgo this seems like just another day. However, you might be driving your friends crazy with your slightly obsessive behavior. However, that’s their problem now and not yours. It’s time for them to adjust to your approach rather than you changing what comes naturally. Being true to yourself feels good, and it allows you to maintain your sense of individuality. Nevertheless, there’s no limit to what you can do for others once you have learned to take proper care of yourself.

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Although you like to do nice things for those you love, you may grow resentful of your domestic responsibilities today unless you also take some time for yourself. Your key planet Venus turns retrograde in your 4th House of Home and Family, requiring you to reevaluate what you’re willing to give up in return for emotional security. But don’t bury your desires for the sake of convenience or they will just resurface. Sharing your needs is easier now, and it dissipates the tension before it reaches a critical point.

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You may not feel as playful as those around you these days, but you are still ready to nurture a potential relationship. However, you first need to know that the other person is taking you seriously before you reveal much of anything. After all, you’re not interested in pursuing unrequited love. Unfortunately, your fear of abandonment can prompt you to close your heart even before you take a risk and share your feelings. Thankfully, the choice is yours. Shine your love light irrespective of the consequences.

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You don’t have time to waste energy now, so steer clear of any unnecessary disputes. They are probably just distractions and won’t amount to anything important anyway. You are alternately full of energy and then totally exhausted. Keep in mind that your stamina is intrinsically tied to your emotions, so find ways to manage your anger before it becomes problematic. Vent any unresolved feelings through physical exercise or hard work to manage the mental stress. Taking a moment to remember what matters most puts you back in touch with your heart.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

It’s not too soon to start formulating your wishes now for the new year, because the Winter Solstice marks a turning point as the Sun returns to your calculating sign. Although mental clarity is working in your favor, Venus Retrograde in Capricorn indicates you might have to wait a while longer to get what you want. Don’t try to force anything into place. Loosening your grip on the controls helps you reach your goals in the long run.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Feelings of paranoia may surface today, but the truth is that someone could actually be trying to undermine your efforts. Any hidden agendas have a tendency to complicate matters, so your current goal should be to bring secrets out into the open. Shine the light of your consciousness into the darkness. The more you know now, the better for all involved.

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

The pace of your social life is already picking up — and the activity is more than just a holiday buzz. You have a practical need to be around people who have supported you in the past and who will be there when you need them in the future. Additionally, you are eager to be a real friend to others. Push your feelings outward; being part of a group can add security and stability to your life. Not surprisingly, it’s even more rewarding to give than it is to receive.
