Horoscope for Mon, 05/05/2014

Aries (March 21 - April 19)

Just for today, Aries, ignore your habit of always trying to find an explanation for everything. Something is changing inside you and in the way you react to situations. The desire to incorporate life's more unpredictable aspects into your personality is the basis for these changes. A lot of your theories are only there to reassure you, but you probably know that. Why not try being honest with yourself?

Taurus (April 20 - May 20)

The planets want to make a deal with you today, Taurus. Either you stay in bed fantasizing about life as a CEO or rock star or you get up, get dressed, and do what you have to do to make your dreams come true. Try and convince yourself once and for all that you don't have to lose your childlike wonder when you enter the real world. That never goes away, no matter how old you get!

Gemini (May 21 - June 21)

It's possible you could meet someone today who will act as a kind of Pygmalion for you. You need to be surrounded and encouraged by people who believe in you, Gemini, and it's good for you have people around to support you. If you do meet this kind of person, don't be a showoff. Listen to what he or she has to say to you. It's for your own good.

Cancer (June 22 - July 22)

You are particularly inspired by and sensitive to crisis situations. What that means is that you can't stand to see other people suffer. Sometimes even you suffer because you don't allow yourself to do the things you like best and the things that help you feel fulfilled as a person. Why don't you think about going easier on yourself, just for today? Try it - you might like it!

Leo (July 23 - Aug. 22)

Days like today push you to act in the areas of your life where you may have hesitated before. Does your love life need a breath of fresh air? Have you been dreaming of a nice candlelit dinner with your partner? A weekend in the country? A new home? It's time to stop dreaming of happiness and do what you need to do to get it. It's well within your reach.

Virgo (Aug 23 - Sept. 22)

You might have questions about the satisfaction you feel about your personal life, Virgo. It's possible you have more demands than ever. Things seem so urgent to you now. Why not take advantage of this attitude to talk about your deepest desires with your partner? Things will be much clearer. You may just need to express some of your negative emotions. It's important to do this before you begin to resent your partner.

Libra (Sept. 23 - Oct. 22)

Today is excellent for just letting your intuition guide you, Libra. If you have time, you might want to let your mind go and follow the train of thought wherever it takes you. You could find something out about yourself of which you unaware, something just waiting to be noticed. Remember, your desires are fantasies before they become realties, so dream a little.

Scorpio (Oct. 23 - Nov. 21)

Today is the kind of day when all you want to do is think about a vacation. You're usually such a responsible, conscientious worker that you can afford to escape for just a few minutes. You could visit the world inside of you. You may even find something that's been on your mind for quite some time that requires some action by you now.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22 - Dec. 21)

You are an excellent friend, and you take pride in helping the people around you. Have you ever thought about getting involved in a humanitarian cause or giving a few hours of your time every week to your local community? Today, Sagittarius, these kinds of ideas could become a real part of your life. It's time to use all of your great ideas to help others.

Capricorn (Dec. 22 - Jan. 19)

Your natural compassion may have led you to choose a profession in which healing or helping other people is your primary duty. Even if this isn't the case, Capricorn, the people around you may seem particularly demanding today. But be careful not to go beyond your personal limits or else you could be the one who needs other people's help!

Aquarius (Jan. 20 - Feb. 18)

You have a rather strange day in front of you, Aquarius. The celestial atmosphere could be playing tricks on you. You might get aggravated for no reason at all, that is, unless it's because you've been meeting too many people who don't appreciate the original way you go about doing things. You may feel as if you live in a world full of dinosaurs. Don't give up yet!

Pisces (Feb. 19 - Mar. 20)

You might be upset by certain financial matters today, Pisces. Either you realize just how much you've been spending lately or you see that things will be tight in the months ahead. It's possible you invested a good deal of money in something that could have waited, and now you can't invest in something much more important. These are hard lessons to learn, but everyone learns them some time.
