Horoscope: December 10, 2008

Posted by ichatmedia on Dec-10-2008

Aries
You might feel as if your heart is playing tricks on you today, dear Aries. Perhaps you are coming up against a strong force that is causing you to doubt yourself in some way. Don’t be conned by loud, obnoxious talk. Seek the true meaning behind the words. You will find that the majority of your strength is internal though quite strong. Be prepared for stubborn wills to make a powerful presence in your world today.

Taurus
Today, dear Taurus, you may find yourself feeling more aggressive than normal. This can serve you well when it comes to getting what you want, provided no one suffers in the process. It’s not generally your nature to step on anyone on the way up the ladder, and you’re not likely to feel good if this occurs. Look at all the possible ways to attain your goals. You’re sure to find something that suits you, and is not harmful to others.

Gemini
It would be wise to spend some time thinking about your finances today, dear Gemini. Do you have a realistic budget? A budget that doesn’t include such things as entertainment, gifts, and occasional splurges won’t suffice, as these are expenses that everyone has. Take a good look at your spending habits, and see where you could cut back without too much pain.

Cancer
You may feel as if people have turned against you today, dear Cancer, and that they have suddenly lost interest in what you have to say. Maybe this is a reflection of your own inability to listen to someone else talking. Look at the collective picture, and open your eyes to the world around you. Get involved on a community level instead of only focusing on yourself all the time.

Leo
It’s the perfect day to do some planning, dear Leo. Taking the time on a regular basis to think about the things you want to do and accomplish is essential for feeling you have control in your life. Without a concrete plan, reaching your goals can be almost impossible. Just as you wouldn’t build a house without a set of plans, it isn’t wise to build a life without one either.

Virgo
Today is a good day to think about your ambitions, dear Virgo. Considering what you really want out of life can be instrumental in setting goals and making dreams come true. Often, reaching them can be as simple as making a decision and taking that first step. For example, if your dream is to have a partner who is ideal for you, and you’re with someone who isn’t, the practical choice is to end the current relationship. Fear, worry, and lack of confidence are the things that can keep you from moving.

Libra
Emotionally, you may find yourself challenged today by a strong force that is demanding your attention, dear Libra. Your hyperawareness to every situation might be driving you a bit crazy. Perhaps you just need to tone things down and relax. Enjoy the fun loving energy of the day instead of questioning it. The more you simply let loose and explore, the better off you will be.

Scorpio
You have the opportunity to do some intense self-healing today, dear Scorpio, in such a way that you communicate much more directly with your core self without the distractions of the people around you. Do what you can to hone in on exactly the internal issue that requires your attention. It is key that you learn how to address these issues yourself instead of relying on other people to take care of these kinds of needs for you today.

Sagittarius
Today you could make some new friends in your neighborhood, Sagittarius. It’s the sort of day where you could find yourself sharing your life story. You could end up talking about personal matters and giving your opinions freely. You might find that a new acquaintance shares many of your views. There could be a nice feeling of camaraderie between you. It’s always feels good when you connect with a soul mate!

Capricorn
Feel free to match your plaid slacks with your polka-dot blouse today, dear Capricorn. Accessorize with a pink feather boa and a striped jacket. Let the oddball within you shine brightly! This is a terrific day for you, and you should feel free to express yourself openly and loudly to the world around you. You should experience a great deal of self-confidence that you should take full advantage of at this time.

Aquarius
Focus on yourself today, dear Aquarius. Yours is often an extremely giving nature. You can be compassionate to a fault, in that too much of your energy goes out to helping others solve problems. Then you’re left without enough focus for yourself and the things that are troubling you in life. See about spending some time alone, and concentrate on any issues you have. Reach out to a trusted friend for guidance and support. Allow someone to nurture you for a change.

Pisces
The energy of the day is quite electric, and you may find yourself bouncing all over the place from task to task and person to person, dear Pisces. Things are apt to jump out at you when you least expect them, so be prepared for surprises. There is an element of genius to the day that might inspire you to be someone much greater than you ever thought you could be. Join with people who share your lively zest for living.

Horoscope: December 9, 2008

Aries
Chances are good that you’ll be keeping yourself busy today, dear Aries. The energetic aspects that are occurring can really have you raring to take on chores that need to be done. Can you think of anything you’d rather do? Well, OK - but still, once you’ve finished these things, there should be plenty of time to do something recreational, too. Make the most of this great day to get into both work and play.

Taurus
If you’ve been thinking about trying some new investments or starting a new savings plan, this is the day to get started, dear Taurus. Mentally you’re a lot more focused than usual, and people around you might have ideas that you should consider. You might experience some intuitive insights yourself, so go with your gut; don’t let your mind get in the way. Tonight, keep a notebook and pen by your bed. You’ll want to record your dreams!

Gemini
Partnerships, possibly business-related, are on the agenda, and you might find yourself involved in discussions with others centered around these. Contracts and other paperwork could be discussed. You might also set aside some time when you can concentrate on a romantic relationship - perhaps a new one, perhaps a current one that is changing and growing. As your mind is particularly focused at this time, dear Gemini, this is a good time to make decisions.

Cancer
Today you might want to talk over any plans you have or would like to make with those you live with, dear Cancer. If you live alone, there isn’t much chance that your plans will affect anyone, but if you cohabit, take time to extend this courtesy. It might be that someone else in the house had some intentions that you aren’t aware of, or there may be someone in need of something from you. Talk things over, and everything will work out just fine.

Leo

A creative project, perhaps one that could earn you some money, could well be today’s primary focus for attention. Perhaps you’ve been doing some writing or are planning to teach a class. If you haven’t already made such plans, dear Leo, you might want to give the idea a little thought. Your physical and mental energies are both high, and you should make the most of them. Success in such fields is strongly indicated if you start the ball rolling today.

Virgo
Don’t fall into the “poor me” trap today, dear Virgo. When things repeatedly don’t go the way you want, or bad things happen to you, it can be very easy to fall into a victim mentality. Yet, while we cannot always control what happens around and to us, we always have the choice as to how we’re going to handle it. Grieving can be a critical element to healing, but there’s a fine line. Choose to keep going, and to insist on better for yourself.

Libra
A lot of paperwork involving new plans for your business interests could be needing immediate attention. Getting it done properly is probably going to require a lot of ingenuity on your part, dear Libra, but you’ll manage to do it. Your mind is particularly quick, sharp, and focused today, so you’ll be able to accomplish a lot at whatever you try. In the evening, attend a concert, lecture, or other event in your community.

Scorpio
Today, dear Scorpio, may be a good day for you to spend some time creating. The joy of creating something is immeasurable, and the process of producing a finished product can be very enjoyable and therapeutic. Crafts, baking, cooking, and gardening are all activities conducive to this. Take time to express yourself through your favorite hobbies today.

Sagittarius
Today you might want to exercise some tact and charm, Sagittarius. You could find yourself in a politically charged situation. An authority figure could be concerned about something. Don’t add more negative energy to the mix. Adopt a positive attitude and think in a constructive way. What can be done to make the situation better? Offer suggestions that show your optimistic side. You’ll be impressive with your “can do” attitude.

Capricorn
It’s a good day for you, dear Capricorn, to put some of those creative ideas to work. Pull out your favorite craft supplies and have some fun exploring color and design. If you have children, consider including them in on the activities. It may amaze you to listen to the incredible ideas and innovative thoughts your own kids have that you never thought of. If you don’t have an “idea box” where old bottles, egg cartons, odd buttons, ribbons, and scraps of colored paper can collect for times like this, start one today!

Aquarius
The completion of a long-term goal might have you flying high, feeling enthusiastic, energetic, and happy. You’re also likely to be looking toward the future, dear Aquarius, formulating ideas for other projects, and discussing them with friends. Group activities could also be beneficial for you at this time, putting you in touch with new people who could possibly become close to you. In the evening, go to an exciting movie! A thriller would probably suit you just fine!

Pisces
Career matters are on the forefront of your concerns today. Opportunities for advancement that you might not have been aware of yesterday may suddenly appear, and you’ll need to make snap decisions and go for what you want right away. Dear Pisces, don’t be surprised if someone whom you’d nearly forgotten is of great help to you today. The presence of people close to you during the course of the day’s events is going to be significant.

Horoscope: December 8, 2008

Aries
You may find that your heart is bouncing back and forth today like a tennis ball, dear Aries. One minute you may be drawn one way while the next minute you are finding yourself drawn in a completely different direction. Instead of trying to fight this feeling, take advantage of it. Consciously or unconsciously, what you are really doing is exploring. Try new things until you are sure that you have found exactly what you need.

Taurus
Your energy level is flying high today, dear Taurus, but don’t let this turn into a head-in-the-clouds attitude. Instead, keep one foot firmly planted on the ground as you may need to keep a level head in a situation either at work or in your personal life. Keep in mind that the best way to deal with this is to take your positive energy and use it to heal the difficult situation instead of letting this difficult situation get you down.

Gemini
You may be thinking that much of your life is simply too boring for anyone else to really care about, dear Gemini. Don’t fall into a well of self-pity where you convince yourself that there is simply not enough excitement in your life and that there never will be. Believe that you have the power to cure any sort of downtrodden feeling that you might have at this time. Consider joining up with a spiritual support group where you can share your feelings honestly.

Cancer
In an effort to be the brightest and the best star on the stage, dear Cancer, you might actually be driving away the most important members of your audience. Make sure that you aren’t putting on different masks with different people just so you can appease them. Others will be able to see right through any disguise you try to put on. Trying to deceive others is simply a sign of disrespect.

Leo
When the last time you used a pen and paper, dear Leo? In this day and age of computers, the keyboard has all but replaced these wonderful tools. In the same way that walking provides much more than fresh air, the kinesthetic value of the rhythmic motion that occurs in writing with a pen is far more soothing and even healing than most realize. Moving your hand across the page can feel good and unlock places within you that aren’t always accessed by typing. Try some of this today.

Virgo
If you look carefully today, dear Virgo, you will notice aspects of people that you had never noticed before. There is apt to be a frenzy of activity today that might catch you in its net and take you away. Look to other people for guidance along the way. When you ask for help, you will get it. At the same time, you will learn a great deal about those people who end up helping you.

Libra
Be careful about becoming too stubborn today, dear Libra. This is one of those days when you are asked to build a structure in a very windy area. If you insist on using the most rigid materials to do so, you will find that the structure you build ends up snapping in two. If, however, you construct your building with flexible materials, it will bend in the wind and last far longer.

Scorpio
It is a good thing that you have a flexible state of mind, dear Scorpio, especially on a day like today. You may find that your powers of adaptation may be put to the test as you discover yourself surrounded by fickle emotions and stubborn attitudes. Don’t get too hung up on getting straight answers from people today; they are apt to be just as confused about certain issues as you are. Play it cool for now, and ride the waves easily to shore.

Sagittarius
This is a good day for finalizing agreements of all kinds, Sagittarius. If you have been thinking about going into a formal partnership with someone, this is the perfect time to do so. As long as you have done your research, you can commit to this path. Or you could be ready to become more committed to your romantic partner now.

Capricorn
Emotionally you should be feeling strong today, dear Capricorn, although you may find that there is an idea running through your head that is asking you to slow down and take things one step at a time. The internal dialog could drive you crazy if you are not careful. The most important thing for you to do at this time is simply to follow your heart. Do what you love to do, and associate yourself with the people you love and respect the most.

Aquarius
Make the effort to get yourself to some sort of body of water today, dear Aquarius. Whether it be the ocean, a river, or even a frozen lake, the sense of expansion and comfort that you will find there will be extremely healing. Know that you are the greatest healer you have for yourself and that you have incredible power to share this gift with others as well. Augment this healing energy with a return to nature.

Pisces
You may find that it is hard to connect with your emotions today, dear Pisces. It could be that you are finding it difficult to get a bit of quiet time when you can really sit down with yourself and listen to your inner voice. There are distractions all around pulling you in many different directions. Keep in mind that these forces aren’t necessarily acting in your best interest.

Horoscope: December 7, 2008

Aries
Although it looks as if the next few months should be shaping up to be a great time for you business-wise, dear Aries, today it might appear hopeless. Mundane, routine, unrewarding tasks may take up a lot of your time on the job today. Nevertheless, don’t see this as being engraved in stone; don’t let the frustration interfere with your outlook for the future. You are due for advancement in some way!

Taurus
Today, dear Taurus, you may notice that you’re feeling very creative and ambitious. You may want to use these strengths to work directly on an artistic project. Or you may choose to channel that energy into activities such as organizing your home or workspace. If you plan it, there should be plenty of time to get to both if you have a mind to. Make the most of the day!

Gemini
Conflicts between your responsibilities at home and your career obligations, particularly those involving partners, could pose problems for you today, dear Gemini. The problem is not insurmountable but does call for honest and open communication with all parties involved. You won’t be happy at having to make a choice and may feel that the two duties are difficult to balance right now. Give it your best, however. By tomorrow things should be back to normal.

Cancer
Communication problems might arise on the job. Perhaps a co-worker is in a bad mood and not very receptive to anything you might have to say. Or perhaps the phones are out or the computers are down. This could prove frustrating, dear Cancer, and might interfere with relations among co-workers. A phone call from a close friend or lover could go astray but reach you at the last minute. Don’t tear your hair out! You’ll still have a great evening!

Leo
A project you have worked on for a long time could be bringing some money your way. However, don’t be too disappointed if you don’t have it in your hand to spend today. There might be a short delay of some kind, perhaps due to a snafu in the mail service. You might be turning your thoughts now to new projects, and although you have a lot of ideas, dear Leo, you aren’t likely to make firm decisions or definite plans today.

Virgo
Relationships with others are always important to you, dear Virgo, and as a result you’ve learned to be charming, polite, and congenial. Today, social engagements might give you a chance to make use of your people skills, and you could make not only some new friends but some valuable contacts as well. You’ll finish the day with a strong sense of accomplishment. These activities, however, could keep you away from home and family longer than you would care to be.

Libra
A powerful sense of inspiration could come from within today, dear Libra, and you might want to sit down and write down your thoughts or draw the pictures that are popping into your head. However, social obligations, possibly parties or visits, could interfere with putting your ideas down on paper. You could also feel especially attuned to the thoughts and feelings of others, but you might not like what you’re picking up!

Scorpio
Group activities may take up a lot of your time and energy today - perhaps too much. Your own career concerns are very much on your mind, and you don’t like being distracted from them. Nonetheless, these activities, not to mention your family, are very important to you, dear Scorpio, and you’ll find a way to squeeze out the time, even though it might be frustrating. Remember, however: this is not a good day to push yourself too hard!

Sagittarius
Today you could be quite the spitfire, Sagittarius. You could have a sassy remark or a quick comeback to anything that is said to you. Your mind will be sharp, and you’ll be able to make witty remarks easily. Your sense of humor is also likely to be incisive and powerful. If you make a clever observation about something, you might want to record your ideas. Keep a tape recorder or a notebook handy, because you could come up with good material!

Aquarius
Strain within a group with which you’re associated could be traced to problems with money. Perhaps people are disagreeing over what needs to be done with regard to fundraising or budget limitations. It’s best to divorce yourself from this sort of thing if possible, dear Aquarius. It can only be draining. Strange and vivid dreams might haunt your sleep tonight, but don’t read too much into them. They aren’t the kind with any special significance.

Pisces

You may get a chance to make some extra money today, perhaps by working overtime. This might, however, interfere with a social event to which you have committed and could cause disappointment among your friends and family members. It could also give rise to a little trouble with your romantic partner! However, remind yourself that this disappointment will pass and the money will be more than welcome. Hang in there!

Horoscope: December 5, 2008

Aries
Vivid and wonderful dreams might have haunted your sleep last night, dear Aries, leaving you feeling disappointed that they weren’t real. They had a message to give you, so write them down, set them aside, and then analyze them later. Your psychic abilities are very sharp today as are your imaginative faculties. This is a great day to get going on an artistic project of some kind that has been at the background of your mind for some time. Enjoy your day.

Taurus
Are you suddenly falling for an old friend, dear Taurus? This may have you confused and a little frightened, as you’ve never viewed this person in this way before. However, this person probably does reciprocate the attraction, so don’t completely write it off. Consider this: could this person be a strong part of your future? How well really do you know each other? Do you respect this person the way you should? If the answers to these questions are positive, give it a try!

Gemini
Are you in love, dear Gemini? You might find that thoughts of your beloved haunt you today, even while you’re apart. Desire and passion could be practically obsessive - but they’ll interfere with your other projects if you aren’t careful. Try to stay focused on the tasks at hand, and make a date to get together with your partner later. You’ll want to keep all departments of your life in their proper perspective, after all!

Cancer
You should be feeling especially strong, healthy, and charismatic, and you are likely to receive some invitations to some exciting parties. You might be surprised at what appears to be a sudden increase in your level of popularity. Expanded opportunities on the career scene could also come your way from new acquaintances, and you could find doors for a whole new life will open - new friends, new position, and possibly even a new home.

Leo
Optimism and enthusiasm for the months ahead have you feeling confident and strong. The sky’s the limit! A male visitor to your home could have some surprising news for you. This is a great day to make investments or purchase property. If you’ve been expecting money through legal papers or contracts, it could come in the mail today. The night could bring vivid and interesting dreams. All in all, look forward to a thoroughly satisfying day.

Virgo
Some interesting information could come to you from a distant state or foreign country, dear Virgo. This could induce some pretty deep thinking, leading to decisions that could actually alter the course of your life in some way. You might be considering returning to school and advancing your education. Your mood today should be optimistic and positive, and you could be full of utopian schemes for the future. Wait a few days, and then start to make definite plans.

Libra
You should wake up feeling strong and confident, dear Libra. Expect to receive some good news today, which will only heighten your mood. In the afternoon, you could attend a party or neighborhood get-together. You’ll have a good time talking to friends and meeting new people. In the evening, relax!

Scorpio
Your outgoing and jovial nature is intensified today, dear Scorpio, and thus you’re probably going to be much sought-after for any parties or celebrations. Your generosity is also at an all-time high, which will be highly appreciated by that special someone in your life. Think of taking your partner with you as you make the social rounds tonight, generously making them the star of the evening. Your generosity today is taking many forms.

Sagittarius
This day might present an opportunity for you to see situations and people as they really are, Sagittarius. We usually have a tendency to see things how we’d like them to be and it is so easy to fool oneself when things aren’t the way as one would wish. So today you could start with trusting your ability to look behind the curtain and face the truth. This is the first step towards being realistic about yourself and valuing the qualities you possess.

Capricorn
A group with which you are associated could bring information to your attention that puts you in a very positive frame of mind and almost has you skipping all the way home. You should enjoy socializing today, dear Capricorn, as you are even more gregarious than usual and both old and new friends could seek out your company. A victory of some kind has come your way, which contributes to your great mood. Enjoy your day.

Aquarius
A close friend or your love partner may present you with a gift, dear Aquarius. You’ll be touched, but you’ll also feel uncomfortable. Maybe the present is costly, or isn’t something you really like. You might also feel that your friend is too eager. What you do in this situation is of course up to you. Tip: don’t refuse the gift unless you genuinely feel it is totally inappropriate. And definitely don’t give it back just because that’s what your mother would do!

Pisces
Congratulations, dear Pisces! A goal you have been working toward for a long time has finally been reached. Success and advancement are on their way, and you should be feeling extremely enthusiastic and optimistic about your future. Some vast changes may take place in your life, but they all promise to be positive ones. Expect some travel and expansion of knowledge. Make the most of these energies.

Horoscope: December 4, 2008

Posted by ichatmedia on Dec-4-2008

Aries
Be careful of getting into fights with other people today, dear Aries. If, however, a squabble or an altercation of some sort seems inevitable, don’t shrink away and hide. It is most important that you face the source of attack and stand up to whomever or whatever is getting in your path. Conjure up the warrior inside of you, and you might just surprise yourself with the incredible power you have inside.

Taurus
There is a powerful force that seems to be working against you today, dear Taurus, but realize that you indeed have the power to produce a positive outcome. Use this conflict to find balance in an unstable situation and try not to rock the boat too much with your superiors. You have a great deal of fire under your belt today and your actions are especially powerful. Consider enrolling in a class or seeking out a path of spirituality.

Gemini
People may seem especially insensitive to your feelings today, dear Gemini, but try not to get down on them for it. You may feel a sudden urge to act out in a physical manner, which is fine, provided you do it in a constructive way. Get out of the house and take a walk or a jog by a lake or river. Open your mind up from the cage it has been sitting in and get some perspective on your life.

Cancer
Your energy will light up any room as soon as you walk in today, dear Cancer. Feel free to take advantage of this incredible magnetism by initiating and encouraging others to join you in creative activities and bold adventures. Be careful, however, that your head doesn’t get so big that it ends up breaking your neck. Be proud without becoming too egotistical; otherwise, you will end up losing your followers before you even get started.

Leo
Put an extra spring in your step, dear Leo. The slow and steady pace may be something that you are comfortable with, but note that the situations of the day call for something much more dynamic and brave. Pull out your leadership robes, and put them on proudly. Today is the day for you to call the shots instead of compromising in order to get along with others.

Virgo
Be prepared for all-out combat with people, dear Virgo, even though this is pretty much the opposite of your normal style. In fact, “opposite” is pretty much the name of the game for you today. Don’t be surprised if you walk into an ice cream shop wanting vanilla and all they have is chocolate. Remember to not get upset by these types of situations that you simply can’t control.

Libra
Control could be a big theme for you and the people who surround you today, dear Libra. You will likely find that there is such a brutal dispute over who is holding the reins that once someone finally gets a firm hold of them, he or she is apt to take the situation to the extreme. There is an aggressive tone to things that will not be easily ignored. Be careful of whom you associate with on a day like this.

Scorpio
Things should be going extremely well for you in general today, dear Scorpio, so don’t miss this opportunity to pursue your dreams in every sense of the word. Do things with passion, and don’t hold back. Remember that your own mind and will are the only things stopping you from getting to where you want to be. There is a great deal of magnetic power at your disposal today, so enlist others to help you along the way.

Sagittarius
Social activities will probably be your focus today, Sagittarius. As a Sagittarius, you tend to be gregarious so finding a friend to hang out with won’t be hard to do. If you have a partner, this would be a great day to take them out to dinner. Your company and conversation will be interesting and your energy will last well into the evening. Just remember that there’s work to be done, too.

Capricorn
Other people are the most important aspect of your day today, dear Capricorn. You will find that alone, things might get a bit difficult and unruly, but as long as you connect with others, you will find that even the most challenging task is almost effortless. One toothpick is easily broken in half, but 20 toothpicks put together are strong as steel. Conjure up this power created by a force of people who all share a common goal.

Aquarius
Your fluid, emotional nature may seem revved up for action today, dear Aquarius, although it could be that you don’t know what direction to drive in. The engine is running but for some reason, the windshield looks a bit cloudy. Try to key into the areas in your life that need major overhaul. Look to transform those areas for the better. Once your windshield is clear, kick your motor into gear and go for it. Initiate the action, or else you may find yourself being acted upon.

Pisces
You have a great deal of power at your disposal today, dear Pisces, and you should keep in mind that just about anything you wish for will come true. Don’t be wasteful with your words or actions. Concentrate your energy, and focus it toward one or two things instead of letting it disperse, thereby diluting your overall power. There is nothing to be afraid of on a day like this.

Horoscope: December 3, 2008

Posted by ichatmedia on Dec-3-2008

Aries
Romance is in the air, dear Aries, and all of a sudden you notice that all around you couples are walking hand-in-hand, exchanging liquid gazes. This could get you thinking about your own situation. If you want to make a move toward someone in the department of love and romance, feel free to go ahead, but don’t get too hung up on positive results. If you get your hopes up too high, you might end up falling hard. Just take it easy.

Taurus
You may find yourself gravitating toward solid, grounded things, dear Taurus, in hopes that these things will provide you with the stability you lack. A keyword for you today is “patience.” Learn how to wait without becoming restless or grumpy. What you will discover after a while is that the stability you seek is actually sitting right there inside of you.

Gemini
Try to come to a place of serenity today, dear Gemini, where you free yourself from desire and jealousy. It is important that you take time to recognize the incredible growth that can spring forth from this position of calm and pure satisfaction. Rid yourself of excess baggage to which you cling as some sort of support or means of comfort. The less you carry, the more your arms are free to create.

Cancer
The keyword for you today is “boundaries,” dear Cancer, so think for a minute about what this means to you. It is time to sit down with yourself and have a serious talk. Set some limits for yourself, and be honest about where you should go about drawing the line. Your health, your state of mind, and your relationships with others all depend on your taking the initiative to know when to say no in certain situations.

Leo
Make sure that you are living your life consciously at this time, dear Leo. It could be that you are going through a great deal of denial and you simply refuse to see the truth of the situation. Open your eyes up to the world around you so that you may invite joy and compassion into your life. Don’t let yourself be satisfied with superficial interactions that don’t really fill you up.

Virgo
In some ways, today may seem like a day of reckoning for you, dear Virgo, when you look in the mirror and see parts of you that you are really not very happy with. Perhaps there is a sense of shame that is present within you based on events of the past that still linger close behind you. Don’t let this shadow of insecurity continue to dwell in your life. Work through these feelings, and identify the root of the problem.

Libra
Your extremely overpowering emotions are apt to scare people off today, dear Libra, especially when it comes to matters involving intimate relationships. Unless your desired result is to convince everyone around you that you are completely insane, it may be best for you to back off. Let someone else take the lead today, and you may be quite pleasantly surprised at where you and this special person end up.

Scorpio
It could be that you are feeling a strong sense of guilt at this time, dear Scorpio, because of something you did in an effort to feed your own ego. Be aware of how your actions have affected others, and apologize for what you have done. Guilt is basically a useless emotion that you should rid yourself of as quickly as possible. Don’t let this feeling keep you from opening up your heart the way you need to in order to restore it to its original innocence.

Sagittarius
Today you could be surprised to find that someone has a crush on you, Sagittarius! You get along well with everybody, and you have many friends. But one of these friends might be developing a stronger affection for you. Pay attention to signals today that might indicate a more romantic interest. Once you figure out who has been drawn within your web, you’ll have to decide what you’re going to do about it!

Capricorn
Why keep fighting a fight that you know you aren’t going to win, dear Capricorn? Why keep trying to fool yourself and others into thinking that you have all the answers when really you are just aware of the tip of the iceberg? The mass of knowledge lies well beneath the surface at this time. Instead of fighting, offer your surrender. At this point, others will be much more willing to quench your thirst for the truth of the situation. The key is for you to listen.

Aquarius
Be careful of getting caught up with people who are careless or fickle, dear Aquarius, especially when it comes to matters of the heart. Your tender emotions are too sensitive to endure the thoughtlessness, bluntness, and ultimately the rejection from someone who was simply not a good person for you to hang around with in the first place. Try not to invest yourself too emotionally in situations or people today.

Pisces
Show a bit of gratitude to the people around you today, dear Pisces. The seat of your personality is very strong at this time, and you’re confident through to your inner core. Take this opportunity to mix this feeling with the service-oriented sensitivity of the day that is asking you to do things for others. Keep in mind that a gesture as simple as a smile and word of appreciation can be extremely healing for another person - and yourself.

Horoscope: December 2, 2008

Aries
Your energy is likely to operate in extreme bursts, dear Aries. One minute you may be lethargic and immobile while the next minute you are ready to run a marathon. Engage in activities that nurture your fluctuating moods. There is no need to figure out why you feel the way you do. The key is to identify these feelings and act accordingly. Plan out how you want to expend your energy when it does come. Misdirected action may prove to be quite harmful.

Taurus
Some fascinating new information, possibly about spiritual or metaphysical matters, could come your way today via books, magazines, TV, or the Internet, dear Taurus. This could set you off on a new course of study. Your own insights and revelations could prove invaluable in increasing your understanding of what you read. In the evening: Expect a surprising letter or phone call from someone you haven’t heard from in a long time. Enjoy your day.

Gemini
Dreams and meditations could lead to insights regarding how best to handle your finances and make your money grow, dear Gemini. You could receive some surprising ideas from newspapers, TV, or the Internet. Your level of intuition is very high. No matter how outrageous an idea may seem, consider it well before making a decision. A written plan of action for anything you do would be helpful. Too many ideas are popping into your head and you’ll want to keep track of them.

Cancer
There is a tremendous amount of physical energy building up within you, dear Cancer. Be careful that you don’t let this incredible force come out in the form of a heated argument against someone you really care about. Perhaps you suddenly feel as if everything is caving in on you, and you desperately need some means of escape. Go outside. Put on a pair of sneakers, and go for a good, long run. Find a way to release this tension.

Leo
You are speeding along in your vehicle, and suddenly there is a huge ramp in front of you, dear Leo. You have the choice of avoiding the ramp, staying on the ground where you know that it is safe and clear, and being content with a very limited view of the world. Another choice, however, is to hit that ramp head-on and let it send you soaring up over the trees and beyond. Who knows where you might land? There is an incredible adventure waiting for you when you take that leap into the unknown.

Virgo
Your actions are likely to be driven by a great sense of duty toward your fellow man, dear Virgo. Think about yourself as being an important role model for young people who may be looking up to you without you even knowing it. Make sure you hold yourself straight and proud, regardless of how menial your current task. The example you set is likely to have a trickle-down effect that will end up touching many people.

Libra
There is a negative intensity about the day that is only going to get worse if you continue to maintain a stubborn attitude about every issue that comes to your attention, dear Libra. Much of today’s activity is going to be focused on ways people can break out of their boxes and see things in an entirely different perspective. If you insist on going against the grain and remaining fixed and immovable in your ways, you will only be met with extreme resistance.

Scorpio
Whether you willingly partake or not, you will most certainly play a key role in the action that is taking place, dear Scorpio. There will be times when you feel like the pivotal player whose decision or physical movement will decide the fate of the entire game. This is a time when you must close your eyes, take a deep breath, and find the answer from your heart. Don’t look to others for support because they will have their own agendas and biases about what you should do. Only you know what is best.

Sagittarius
Clarity is the word of the day for you, Sagittarius. Today’s aspects bring with them an opportunity for you to see things as they really are, not as you’d like them to be. While this can sometimes be disheartening, it can also give you a sense of empowerment to take a good look at someone or something, and see what you’ve never seen before. Learning about the people and things in your life can be a valuable experience.

Capricorn
A large assembly of forces is gathering at this time to make a bold statement and an important pledge, dear Capricorn. This is the kind of movement that brings together entire generations and unites people to form a revolution of some sort. Put away the petty issues, and think on a global scale. Educate yourself about what is going on in the world, and take a more aggressive stand in fighting for what you believe. A small group of intelligent individuals can make a tremendous impact.

Aquarius
Today you could decide to attend a class, workshop, or social event involving people in the spiritual, metaphysical or intellectual fields. Fascinating discussions could lead to insights and revelations of your own, dear Aquarius. You could explore ways to harness your natural healing ability, perhaps through Reiki, massage or other hands-on disciplines. Expect to spend the next few days preoccupied with ideas you’ve learned today. They should have a profound impact.

Pisces
There is a strong wave of power coming your way, so be careful of how you handle it, dear Pisces. You are extra-prone to injuries and accidents of an explosive nature, so try not to make any hasty moves while driving, and extinguish all cigarettes when operating near a gas pump or propane tanks. Used properly, however, today’s planetary energy can help you tackle just about any obstacle that is put in front of you. The choice of how you deal with the energy is yours.

Aries
Today is a very high-energy day for you, dear Aries, when you have the physical stamina to accomplish quite a bit. Take care, however, that you have all the facts needed before you venture out on your day’s activities. It could be that there is a hidden force working, perhaps within your own mind, that is seeking to blur the lines of reality about a certain issue. Check your sources, and proceed with caution.

Taurus
Plan your moves carefully today, dear Taurus, and have patience with the people around you. If you are working with others, be sure that they are on the same page with your goals and aims and that they are not somehow working counter to your purposes. It could be that someone is acting or reacting on misinformation that is creating conflict with your thoughts and feelings. Do a reality check before walking out the door.

Gemini
Your actions may be touched by a very fanciful frame of mind today, dear Gemini. Be careful about indulging in recreational substances that take you out of reality for a while. Your tendency will be to want to escape into the cosmos, but sooner or later, you will have to come down. Deal with your issues now before you become even more clouded than you were before. Take action with a clear and sober mind.

Cancer
You are being called on to take action in many realms today, dear Cancer. People may be tugging at you on all angles to be with them and participate in their world of fun and excitement. It could also be that there are many projects that are catching your attention today and you are experiencing conflict over into which ones to put your energy. Friction may arise as you find yourself tearing away from one situation to participate in another.

Leo
Take action on creating a fanciful dream world today, dear Leo. Indeed, much of the activities of the day will be touched with an air of otherworldliness. Although you generally like to keep your feet on the ground, realize that once in a while it is essential to let go and experience other realms of thought in order to gain new perspectives on things. Let your hair down, and go wild tonight.

Virgo
Your actions are spurred on today by a strong desire to bring more of the fantasy realm into your own reality, dear Virgo. You may discover that there is an intense nagging for you to bring a sense of the obscure to the normal, everyday realm in order to illustrate to people that life is really just one big comedy act. Encourage others not to take it so seriously, and be creative in your approach to helping people lighten up.

Libra
This is an intense day for you, dear Libra, in which the disharmony in different realms of your life is cropping up and spurring you to action. Others may be ridiculously stubborn today, causing tension and frustration wherever you turn. The key to balancing out the equation is fun. A jovial frame of mind and playful attitude will help remedy any situation that comes your way. Have a good time today.

Scorpio
You may find it difficult to take action on any sort of practical matter today, dear Scorpio. If you find that this is the situation, don’t even bother pressuring yourself into making it happen. Today you are more concerned with the fanciful side of life. Daydreams - both physical and mental - can be a wonderful escape for you today. Do something that will take you out of your current frame of mind. Go see a movie or a play this evening.

Sagittarius
You could be a real spitfire today, Sagittarius. You might decide to let your true emotions out. Maybe you will finally get the courage to speak with someone about a stressful situation. Don’t hold things inside, because this will only make your blood boil. Release some of that pressure by speaking the truth. Perhaps it is time to have an honest conversation with your boss. Or perhaps you should directly confront a challenge in a personal relationship. Improvement will happen if you speak from the heart.

Capricorn
“Action” is the keyword of the day for you, dear Capricorn, so put on some comfortable shoes this morning, and have a good time. Infuse a bit of non-sequitur playfulness in your dealings with others, and find ways you can escape reality for a little while. Take the original scenario, and add a twist of the bizarre. Opinions will be especially strong today, and conflict may arise, but realize that a breath of playfulness and lightheartedness will remedy any situation.

Aquarius
Live your creative fantasies today, dear Aquarius, but watch out for the reality police at the border. You may be experiencing a bit of conflict with a stubborn person or area of your life that is not very well-planned. Think things through before taking action, or else you may find yourself lost in this world of daydreams without any escape hatch through which to come back. Keep your mind set on the positive aspects of the situation, and you will succeed.

Pisces
Today is one of those days when you might be kicking yourself for not telling the truth at a previous occasion, dear Pisces. The words which seemed so harmless when you spoke them may now be coming back to haunt you. Today is a very action-oriented day when conflict may arise because what was thought to be true is now turning out to be false and counter to the action being taken at this time.
