Thursday
Aries
You're great at cutting to the chase, so head games doesn't usually work for
you -- unless they're the kind that people who are attracted to each other
like to play. Since you can easily spot frauds and those who hold info back
from you, you've got an edge in those kinds of games. If your instincts tell
you that's what's going on today, make your excuses and leave. Nobody says
you have to stay for dessert!
Taurus
You're not usually known for having much of a temper. It takes quite a lot
to get you riled up, for one thing, and by the time you actually get around
to expressing anger, you've realized that it's likely not worth the energy.
You've got tremendous self-control, most of the time. Every once in a while,
though, the dam bursts and someone ends up gored by a raging bull. That
could easily happen today. Someone -- not you -- had better hire a
bodyguard!
Gemini
Secrets aren't really your thing -- you much prefer chatting about anything
that crosses your mind just as soon as it passes through. Right now, one big
secret is becoming almost impossible to keep quiet about, though. It's just
too thrilling to keep to yourself! If you must share it with a friend, go
for it -- but make sure to choose the right one.
Cancer
You love entertaining at home almost more than anything else. You're a
natural caregiver, and when you've got everyone you love under one roof,
eating whatever you've whipped up (with plenty of TLC), it's as close to
heaven as it gets on this world. Now is the time to treat yourself and your
people to just such an event. Gather everyone together for an impromptu
shindig at your place.
Leo
You've never minded working overtime -- much. You do whatever it takes to
get things done right, but when it's time for fun, it's time for fun. In
fact, for a while, you've been thinking about taking time off. You may have
come close to marching up to your boss and telling them (not asking) that
you're wandering off, at least for a week or so. Now is the time -- but you
do need to temper your words if you'd like to return to work eventually.
Virgo
To you, there's nothing quite as dangerous as boredom. It can cause even the
most rational person (that's you) to behave in some crazy ways. Instead of
letting that happen, try to find a new way to amuse that big brain of yours.
If you can't, you may end up getting so riled up that one missing paper
could inspire an all-out, unforgettable tantrum right in the middle of work.
Try ducking out to fly a kite or see a movie instead.
Libra
Anyone who tries to zip through an encounter with you using superficial
chatter had better be ready for a lesson, because it just can't work. You're
often a fan of pleasant small talk, because you love getting along smoothly
with everyone. Today's mood, though, isn't exactly conducive to whimsical
chitchat. You don't want to argue with anyone, but you probably do so rather
than talk about absolutely nothing. You want depth!
Scorpio
Today may be tough for you, but if anyone is up for a bit of a challenge,
it's you. The good news: Once you've done your duty and start to head home,
you find a sweet surprise waiting for you, thanks to your partner or
housemate. Their instincts are just as sharp as yours, and they know what
you need. Things are definitely looking up for tomorrow, too, so hang in
there.
Sagittarius
You're not afraid of hard work, but you've been doing far more than your
fair share lately, and you seriously need some time off. Let yourself go!
You can be extravagant when it comes to down time -- or anything else that
perks you up. All your self-discipline is good for your soul, but not all
that great for your love life. Walk away from it all and get out there.
Capricorn
There's only one thing you can do to get out of this rut: take action. Let
that wild urge for activity lead you somewhere new and pleasant. Have
everyone over for some big-time fun. You've earned the right to goof off so
have they -- and besides, you need their opinion on those big changes you're
thinking about making. While they're all in the house, pass out a sign-up
sheet for the painting or moving party.
Aquarius
You've decided that something just isn't working for you. It's not really in
your nature to accept the unacceptable, and you're famous for having little
patience with those who do. You need to make some changes, and move quickly
on them -- maybe so quickly that your people wonder who you are and what
you've done with the person they thought they knew. Resist the urge to guide
them through it -- things get better soon.
Pisces
You've just broken out of a dark place. It certainly wasn't easy, but now
that you're back out in the sunshine, you don't take kindly to anyone who
tries to drag you back. That's especially true for anyone who tries to make
you feeling guilty over something you didn't do. Talk to them and straighten
it all out as soon as you can. You may be able to compromise with them, or
at least cease hostilities.
