Daily Horoscope

Capricorn
Don't be petty if someone attempts to reconcile or make up for a recent argument. If you hold something over a friend, you will weaken the relationship and you may never get it back to the same level you now enjoy. It isn't worth it just to prove that you're right. You now have to concentrate on being the kind of friend you want to have. Someone is counting on you, even though you may be embroiled in an argument. Take the high road and you won't regret it, Capricorn. Capricorns are natural goal setters. They willingly handle many tasks when it helps them get what they want. Many things are accomplished, because Capricorns always strive to reach higher goals. They need definitive guidelines. Rules and regulations provide the structure they need to establish their own behavioral patterns. They must learn, however, that the end never justifies the means.

AQUARIUS
When you go on a diet, you give up high-fat and high-calorie foods. The very nature of dieting is deprivation. But to get something you want, you sometimes have to give something up. Whether this applies to you now in the area of personal health and fitness or in some other area, you need to know that your sacrifice will pay off soon, and you'll be feeling a whole lot better either way. If a friend or neighbor comes to you for advice today, defer that person to someone with relevant experience or you could be blamed if things don't work out.

PISCES
It is easy to be a good friend to someone who is wealthy and popular. That's because there are perks associated with this kind of friendship. You may go better places, meet more interesting people, and become wealthy and popular yourself in a vicarious kind of way. But it's not so easy to be a good friend to someone who is down on his or her luck. In some ways, your own identity is tied in with this person, and if they are feeling down, you wind up feeling down. But being a good friend means being there through it all. Be one, and you will have one.

ARIES
For babies, the teething process can be quite painful. As they cut new teeth, they invariably experience a lot of discomfort and quite a few sleepless nights. But those new teeth open up a whole new world of foods to dine on. This simplistic example is relevant to you today, Aries. Some emotionally painful process you have experienced recently may have been quite challenging. Ultimately, though, the pain you suffered has transformed you into someone who can take on a bigger challenge. You may not realize this yet, but when you easily conquer an upcoming difficulty, you'll realize you've reached a whole new level.

TAURUS
Stand-up comedians learn to see the funny side of not-so-funny situations. When they write jokes, they often make fun of their own personal problems. If the jokes are successful, the comedians turn misery into money. You may soon be able to transform something you learned the hard way recently into money or an opportunity to make more money. Although it may not be something you find funny, you will be laughing all the way to the bank if you can figure out the advantages of a recent setback.

GEMINITime heals all wounds. You may not feel that way right now, Gemini, but pretty soon a recent disappointment, hardship, or cruelty you endured will fade away. That may be hard to believe at this point, but it will happen. When it does, you will find great joy in the same area, and it will take the place of the pain. With a family matter, it shouldn't be too hard to figure out what is best for everyone involved. Perhaps you're not finding the answer to a problem because you are only considering what's right for you.

CANCER
It's time to let go of a problem, Moonchild. There's something that's been nagging at you, and you've become a bit obsessed with the thought of it. This may have to do with the pain caused by an old relationship or a rift between you and a family member. You've done all can do to repair this situation, so there's nothing left but to let it go. Keep the faith that you'll soon understand why the course of events was in your best interest. Tonight, rethink a recent decision about a goal or dream. If you've put something on the back burner, it's time to turn up the heat.

LEO
If you believe in love at first sight, don't venture out today. If you do, you will likely meet someone who will make you feel weak in the knees. Although you may quickly develop feelings for this person, they will mostly be based in physical appearance. However, you may mistake lust for love, and you could wind up setting yourself up for heartache. If you must get out and about, and you do encounter such a person, make sure to get to know each other before you jump into something too quickly.

VIRGO
All that glitters isn't gold... but sometimes it is. You may think that a recent development or opportunity is way too good to be true, but in fact it is probably even better than you think. Don't assume that you can't get so lucky, because great things are in store for you. You may even be afraid to think the best out of fear of being let down, but you will not be let down. With a female relative, don't be too harsh if she asks your opinion, but don't give false praise either. This person needs to hear the truth, but in a kind and compassionate way.

LIBRA
If you are tempted to tell only part of the truth to someone, you can expect the rest of it to come out eventually. If you mislead someone now, though - even if it's out of kindness - you may be perceived as dishonest. If you choose to say anything at all today, then make sure it's the whole truth or you may wind up alienating an important person in your life. Tonight, the focus is on home-related matters. Whether you are searching for a new home or just considering a home renovation project, make sure you're very careful about choosing the perfect contractor.

SCORPIO
If you have experienced crazy dreams recently, you can chalk it up to some nervousness or fear that you aren't ready to face just yet. If you're hoping for a good night's sleep tonight, try meditating just before bedtime. Positive visualization could help you to deal with whatever is on your mind. If you are worried about turning down someone's request for a favor, keep in mind that you can only take on what's comfortable. Helping someone out under duress will only make you feel resentful and you will ultimately be sorry that you agreed.

SAGITARIUS

You need a night to simply escape your worries, Sagittarius. Sneak out of work or school early tonight if you can, and catch a summer movie or stop at the book shop for a trashy novel. Take some time just for yourself if you want to diffuse the stress that's been building up. Even if this kind of pursuit seems like a waste of time to you, keep in mind that being your best, most relaxed self will make you easier to get along with, and will help you make better decisions.
