Today's reading | Tue Dec 08, 2009
Making a good first impression is extremely important right now. Appearances can swing a situation in your favor. Content is important, but first you need to take care of the style. Be sure to wear your best corporate clothing if you want to get that new account or promotion. You'll be doubly impressive when you get around to showing off your brainpower, but you have to get your foot in the door first.
Let your skepticism slide a little today -- sometimes you've got to take leaps of faith in order to make real progress! Your mind is sharp, but it's better to just push forward, rather than plot a deliberate course.
Is your sweetheart trying to get you to do their dirty work? Get some clarity about this area of your relationship. You may need to spell out exactly what jobs you are and aren't willing to do. This saves time in the long run.
Taurus
Today's reading | Tue Dec 08, 2009
You're the master of ceremonies. You're a fountain of cheerfulness. You're slated to have big fun no matter what you end up doing with yourself. Since you probably went over all the possibilities in your last slow moment, you're ready to move as soon as the mood hits you. Maybe you're up for a fresh attack on a project that once defeated you. Maybe you'll paint bright colors all over something that usually bores you to tears. Whatever you do, do it with gusto.
You are the right person for the job -- no mater what job it may be! You can make yourself as attractive as you want to be in almost all circumstances today, so find something you really want.
Something that worries or bothers you about your sweetheart can lead you to understand more about yourself. Examining your feelings with a sense of detachment holds the key to greater insight.

None of the usual strategies seem to work in a family argument. Everyone here knows each other too well. Ultimatums ring hollow when you can never completely turn your back and walk away. It doesn't help that those who love you the most may also be the quickest to find fault. Since everything is personal, your best hope is to communicate clearly without raising your voice. You score big points with your visible effort to be reasonable. Even if you agree to disagree by the time it's all over, at least you'll come away with the feeling that everybody learned something.
Your mind easily grasps new ideas today, so it's the best time to study up and try to get ready for any intense mental challenges that may be coming your way. Help your peers with their own issues.
Eloquence comes naturally to you, especially when you have loving feelings toward your partner. Just remember that not-so-pleasant opinions need an outlet too. If you keep swallowing your words, you'll get indigestion.

Technophobes take heart. Your dark ages are coming to an end in an era of user-friendliness. Meanwhile, technophiles get an open budget or find amazing sale prices. The equipment you coveted for so long can finally be yours. As your arsenal grows, increased computing power connects you to a whole new world. Even if you're not wired up and jacked in by this time tomorrow, you'll gain extra mileage with your sudden ability to make sense of unintelligible manuals. You could write these things yourself.
You have a serious knack for making strong connections with others, and today, it's easier than ever to do just that. Say something to that crush of yours or reconcile with an old family member.
It feels like these relationship obligations are limiting your creativity. Like it or not, you're the designated caretaker for now. Instead, write in your journal about these frustrations. You'll find a way to work through them.

Whatever wild, impulsive thing you were about to do can probably wait. You're feeling a different kind of energy now, and you wouldn't mind simply sitting at your desk and taking care of less exciting business. This is your moment to balance the checkbook and make sure you're not spending more than you have. Maybe you could pay those outstanding bills and take their weight off your mind. If this moment of fiscal sanity is happening within a job or organization, see if you can involve others in an overall budgetary review. Everyone should know what's going on.
Pull back from your wildest schemes -- for now, anyway! You need to keep it quiet and make sure that everything is proceeding according to plan if you want to be able to go crazy in the future!
A grumpy moment threatens to throw your train off track, but take it for what it is -- a minor inconvenience -- and don't let it spoil your good time. You and your sweetie have plenty of joy ahead.
Virgo

Stand up from your hiding place and walk into the heart of the game. Throw away the mask that so often hides your feelings. Even if everyone here isn't an old friend, you can certainly call them your equals. Maybe you'll take this proud moment to work on that project of all projects: yourself. This might make you unavailable for now, but there's always later. Anyone could track you down and ask what you're doing, and you'd respond openly. None of your reasons are secrets.
Your ability to get people working toward a common goal is widely acknowledged, but today you pull something off that leaves even your most vocal supporters shocked. Go for it with gusto!
Help your beloved organize their thoughts, especially if they're getting caught up in needless repetition. Yours, out of all the signs, has the most stellar ability to separate the gold from the dross.

If you're looking for an emotional connection, you could miss it unless you keep your eyes peeled. The more people are gathered in any one place, the more likely signals will cross in this dense, confusing environment. What can you do? Be as present as you possibly can be during this time of great opportunity. The odds are in your favor, especially if you're clear about what you want.
You're feeling overwhelmed, and for good reason -- things are a bit much right now! That doesn't mean that'll be true in the future, though, so try to just hang on for the time being.
You and your sweetie know that beauty's only skin-deep. Fortunately, the both of you are lovely both inside and out. When it comes to others you encounter today, look for qualities beyond the obvious.
Scorpio
Today's reading | Tue Dec 08, 2009
Be open and prompt. Whether you're among friends or in a roomful of strangers, your wishes are relevant. Your hopes might line up perfectly with someone else's possibilities. Emotional candor is part of your cosmic profile, even if you sometimes think of yourself as guarded or evasive. A bold gambit is worth the risk. You might be surprised when you see all the people who appreciate your forthcoming style. It could amaze you even more when they rise to your expectations.
Your devotion to service -- in all its forms -- is sure to help you today. You may just be helping a customer, or you may have to perform some complex set of favors for friends, but it's all worth it.
Justifying your actions to your sweetheart makes you sound slightly defensive. Well -- are you feeling defensive? Before you speak, examine your intentions and see if your actions are in line with them.
Sagittarius
Today's reading | Tue Dec 08, 2009
You have a bit of an attitude these days. Used judiciously, this could help move some old obstacles out of the way. Just make sure you don't step on any toes you might need later. Walk away from anyone who tells you your free spirit is shaking things up too dramatically -- it's not worth arguing about. The world is wide, and your talents are many. Before too much longer, you'll find a place that fits you.
Though you might not be able to see all of them, the details of today's projects are more important than ever. Call in support if you must, but make sure that everything is dealt with quickly and properly.
Are you unconsciously playing judge and jury with your sweetheart's actions? Think how uncomfortable that makes them, and halt any tendency you have toward micromanaging your sweetie's actions.
Capricorn
Today's reading | Tue Dec 08, 2009
You're interested in the ethics of this situation. The question may be obvious at first, but the answer is deep. Even if you're not a scholar or an attorney, you feel equipped to dissect this matter down to the bones. A new decision pushes some familiar old buttons although you might never have been here before. You learn something all over again once you revisit the beliefs instilled in you from early childhood. There's more order to the world than you thought. Clarify your own position by explaining to somebody else how it all fits together.
Your ability to soak up information comes in handy today as you come across a whole new storehouse of facts that are new to you. It's a good time to absorb -- wait until later to reflect on it all!
It's possible to have growing pains, even past adolescence. Your relationship is going through a period of unprecedented growth right now. The nice thing about maturing as an adult is that you can appreciate the process.
Aquarius
Today's reading | Tue Dec 08, 2009
For someone who usually likes to go with the flow or delegate the course of events, it's not like you to be so fixated on the details. Others are confused by your reactions. You might not even be aware that anything is different. Listen to what they're telling you instead of laughing it off. Although you weren't planning for a day of self-examination, this may be the time for looking at the whole picture instead of all its parts. Things are actually different from what you thought they were.
Slow down and let your big ideas percolate for the time being -- you need to focus on the tiny details! If you can handle them with care, you should be able to return to grand strategies soon.
Move through this relationship situation with even more of your usual grace. Not only will you rise to this challenge, you'll rise above it. Your sweetie is in awe of your ability to take the long view when it comes to love.
Pisces

Membership comes with responsibilities. If you're part of a team or half of a relationship, your time may not be entirely your own, at least right now. In fact, the other half of your partnership may be asking for your help at the moment. Dig deep. You really do have the resources -- both inner and outer -- to deal with this. Later on, you can attend to your personal to-do list. There's room for everything if you time it right.
One project in particular has been bothering you for some time, but no you can put it to rest. It's a great time to call on all your allies and those who owe you favors, as it takes a team effort.
A new emotional cycle starts up between the two of you as commitment issues come to the fore. Don't assume that it's up to you to solve everything. You both need to be active participants in this relationship.
