What kind of day will you have today? Read our horoscope...

ARIES

(March 21-April 19)

You've heard all your life that hard work pays off, but it might feel as though you haven't seen proof of this in quite a while. Watching people get things that they don't deserve—or worse, things that you deserve more—is becoming increasingly difficult to do. Today, follow your sense of fairness, and you can affect the rewards that people (including yourself) will be getting. Treat others with the respect they deserve, and the imbalance you've been feeling will slowly start to fade away.

TAURUS

(April 20-May 20)

Today, when you suddenly feel an overwhelming affection for a person you've never really liked all that much, you will be awakened to the powerful force that is your compassion. Existing in a world with people who disagree with you is slowly but surely becoming something you can be comfortable with. The 'live and let live' philosophy rings true to you, and it can be liberating. Conflict can be a choice—and it's a choice you don't have to make if you don't want to.

GEMINI

(May 21-June 20)

Today you may feel like a track star—because you are very quickly approaching an important hurdle. And just like an Olympic athlete, you knew this hurdle was coming—the good news is that you are completely prepared for it (and preparation counts for a lot). Of course, you won't be able to go around this obstacle—so take a deep breath and make that leap right over it. You are in a good position to win this race.

CANCER

(June 21-July 22)

The world holds many mysteries and fascinating journeys, but right now you are going to be much more focused on your home environment. Let other people explore the globe's latest trendy hot spots. Right now, it's okay to luxuriate in the comfort of the familiar. Your family offers you immense joy, and they are very receptive to listening to whatever you want to discuss. It's time to go over some details that have been confusing you.

LEO

(July 23-Aug. 22)

Life may be a smorgasbord, but that does not mean you should take a heapin' helpin' of every dish being offered! Pick and choose the experiences you take part in, especially those that involve people you don't know very well. Wanting to try new things is admirable, but right now you need to focus on some projects that you're already working on. This is the only way to achieve some long-dreamed-of goals.

VIRGO

(Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Unusual socializing is what you need right now—so skip the typical dinner locales with the typical people, and try a new place with new people! Joining a dining club or sprinkling complete strangers into your mix of friends will be a wonderful way to boost your confidence and give some of that rusty charm of yours some much-needed exercise! Say whatever is on your mind today—there is little if any need to self-edit. If you put your foot in your mouth, so what? You'll survive.

LIBRA

(Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

As illogical as it sounds, your heavy mood can be lightened by heavy thoughts. If you face whatever is troubling you and process it with as much honesty as you can, your worries will eventually fade away to nothing. But if you ignore the fact that something is wrong in your life, the problem will never be resolved! It will stick around, waiting to get some of your attention—and it can wait forever if need be. Think things through today, and you'll feel better tomorrow.

SCORPIO

(Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Today you'll be dealing with a very sensitive person who has a lot of influence over your future. So in order to keep this person calm and receptive to your ideas, you'll have to be a bit obsequious. You may not like being so attentive to someone else, but the special efforts you make today will definitely pay off. If you don't behave as selflessly as possible, you could wreak havoc without even realizing it.

SAGITTARIUS

(Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Help is always available if you need it, but try to go it alone for as long as you can before asking for aid. You can deal with this! Why do you think your confidence is waning right now? For a quick ego boost, take a tiny risk today and see what happens. Start a conversation with an intimidating person, or even just try your hand at a challenging crossword puzzle. Remind yourself that you are a capable person who can take care of things.

CAPRICORN

(Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

In movies, the good guy always wins. But you learned long ago (through personal experience) that real life is a lot different -- all too often, the good guy ends up losing out. But today an underdog will triumph—and it'll be just like a scene from a Hollywood blockbuster. Get ready to be inspired by the true story of someone who battled the odds and came out victorious. And know that you can win your battle, too.

AQUARIUS

(Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

You are an independent individual, and you're rightly proud of that. But it's important to remember that you are connected both to people who came before you and to future generations. You should try to get in touch with some older relatives today. Instead of sending an email, make a phone call. Or better yet, meet up for a meal—the more intimate, the better. Remind yourself where you came from.

PISCES

(Feb. 19-Mar 20)

If you surround yourself with beauty today, you will give your heart a lovely boost—and encourage romance in the process. Natural beauty is the most appropriate because it is something that just is—it hasn't been manipulated to meet certain expectations. Pick up some flowers to brighten your home, take a walk in a garden or better yet, go for a long hike and breathe the fresh air in deeply. Something is awakening in you now, and it will lead you toward a new goal.
