Aries

This will be a day rich in reflection. You’re able to observe what’s going around you while still retaining some distance. Other people’s ambitions will amuse you as they play their parts more like caricatures than real people. Stepping back like this benefits you greatly. You should do it more often.

Taurus

Here’s a day when some long-awaited attention or recognition comes your way. You’re finished with the hassles you experienced during the past month and have entered a calmer period. Those who could recently only criticize can’t find enough words to praise you. Take the compliments at face value. There’s nothing wrong with being happy with yourself.

Gemini

This will be a day of reflection. While you may be tempted to look back and think about how far you’ve come, your time would be better spent thinking about what the future has in store. You’ve entered a period of rethinking both your identity and objectives. These aren’t small matters. You’ll need every ounce of energy at your disposal to make it through this time of transition.

Cancer

This would be an ideal day to take extra care of your body. Don’t kid yourself that those back problems will go away. Ditto that pain in your knee. Make an appointment with a doctor or physical therapist. It won’t hurt you to set aside your responsibilities for one day. This is important.

Leo

You may have recently modified the material aspects of your life. Was it sufficient to stop there? More profound changes might be in order. Take a look at what motivated you to create the life you’re living now. Pay special attention to the choices you’ve made in your profession. Are you sure you’re doing what you were meant to do? Are you using your talents to the fullest?

Virgo

This will be a great day to meditate. You may be dissatisfied because your various projects have yet to take form. You’re impatient, but who wouldn’t be? This waiting period has lasted for about two months but will soon end. The planetary energy asks you to consider only what is essential for you. Don’t start new projects based on anything superfluous.

Libra

Today promises to be excellent, but don’t go overboard. You might be tempted to think that your minor financial difficulties are already behind you. Alas, they are not. What you do today provides the blueprint for your future. Continued efforts to stabilize your behavior will provide the security you desire for the future.

Scorpio

You’re in the home stretch now. Kiss your worries goodbye. Your efforts pay off as people listen to your advice and try to please you. Although certain details in your love life still need to be worked out, it’s safe to coast for a while. You’ve spent months in this process of self-transformation and you deserve a little rest.

Sagittarius

Your life seems to revolve around human contact. You’re an outgoing, cheerful, engaging conversationalist who enjoys bringing people together, but lately you’ve been yearning to be alone. Today don’t ignore any urge you feel for solitude. Even though it’s an unusual need for you, it’s still valid and you should honor it.

Capricorn

Sometimes friends become your real family. Your friendships are deeper and more enduring than you realize. Many people are eager to give their help, so why are you reluctant to receive it? Haven’t you been the one promoting the benefits of warm, sincere friendships? Today makes you aware of your talents and reinforces how important friendships are.

Aquarius

You’ve made it over the hump. You’ve moved beyond the problems of the recent past and you’re entering a more peaceful phase. You’ll soon complete your projects at work. Your domestic life will be the picture of bliss and harmony. Enjoy this period of rest and relaxation because it will be followed by a period of intense longing that requires your total attention.

Pisces

The outlook for today is excellent. The somewhat oppressive atmosphere of the past few days inspires you to change your surroundings and visit new places. Why not plan a little trip? All signs indicate that this is the best time to plan such an adventure. If you delay, you’ll be stuck in the same old routine again.
