DAILY HOROSCOPE

Today's Horoscope for Capricorn

You might find yourself extremely busy today, so make sure you take a moment to regain equilibrium. Don't let your mind wear your body down. Balance out your chaotic thoughts and feelings internally and make sure not to expel them on an unwitting suspect. A grouch is no one's friend.

Make plans for future home improvements. Think about what you will garden this spring. Pick out new paint if the need be. If your house requires larger repairs, start a savings plan now.

You could feel like you're being pulled in a million different directions today. Try not to let the stress and demands of your work, school or home environment get you down. If you're not careful, the anxiety from today could manifest into an illness that could keep you at home all weekend.

Take a moment to sit back and relax this afternoon. You're most likely moving at a frantic pace and so remember to breath. If you're putting in extra hours at work, make sure you're getting enough sleep at night. Remember to eat well so your mind and body can keep up this pace.

You'll surely have a spring in your step today. Everyone and everything you come into contact with this afternoon will beguile and mystify you. Your curiosity is even peaked by what you normally find boring and routine. Enjoy the many mysteries of your familiar world.

You could feel like a breath of fresh air has blown into your life. Your surroundings will appear fresh and you'll view people and places in a new light. Your curiosity will be high as you inspect even the most familiar and ordinary facets of your world.

Don't mettle in work related issues. Getting involved in office gossip now will likely have disastrous results. It would be better for you to keep your head down and your mouth closed. Co-workers will respect your silence, and you'll save yourself the grief of being dragged into a messy situation.

You could be the beneficiary of some money or a gift today. Whatever it is, make sure you use it wisely. Also, don't forget to thank whomever the present is from. If possible, pay the kind gesture forward.

You could be up for a promotion. To make your superiors really take notice of the sincere efforts you've put forth, volunteer to work late or collaborate with co-workers on a project. Having a good attitude and being receptive to additional work asked of you will secure your success.

Reminisce about how you got to where you are today. Look at the lessons you've learned along the way. Share any insight with a struggling friend or family member. Let them catch a glimpse of the stepping stones you used. They will welcome and appreciate your opinions and advice.

This is a time for growth and change. Evaluate the lessons you've learned recently. Apply these insights toward any path you choose to follow now. Most likely you'll see things very clearly and you'll know for certain what direction you wish your life to take.

Promote equality today. Don't turn a blind eye to prejudices or injustices. You can set a good example for others by modeling kindness and integrity. People will respond to you now because of your compassion, and they will respect you for it.

Do something nice for your family. After all, they were the ones to show you how great love and relationships could be. Show them that you're grateful for their guidance and what you've learned from them.

Extend your charisma to the world and you'll have many suitors eager to enjoy your charms. While you normally operate at a much more discreet level, that will just hold you back now. Live out loud.

A chance meeting turns into one hot romantic opportunity, but you have to be ready, willing and able to take advantage of it. Leave the house wearing your snazziest outfit. Be alert and open-minded.

This person has rejected you in the past, but suddenly he or she comes back into your life. Should you extend the olive branch? Sure -- but you don't have to risk your heart again, especially if your gut says not to.

That romantic date you've been planning? All astral signs point to go. The more extravagant and whimsical the plans, the better. You truly outdo yourself when you're thinking of how to make someone else happy.

Speaking up is encouraged by the current celestial energies. Deliver your message and don't worry about what the response might be from your potential beloved. After all, the truth is more important.

After a series of missed opportunities and romantic trials, you're beginning to see the light. You're giddy, effervescent -- floating on air. This is almost like being in love. Let yourself enjoy every moment of it.

All that glitters may be mighty attractive at first, but someone who really resonates with you will strike a deeper, more profound note. Go ahead and have fun, but dare to hold out for the real thing.

Your playful energy gets you lots of attention from several delightful parties, but the stars recommend that you concentrate that flirtatious spirit on one prospect. One-on-one dates are highly favored.

Expand your loving heart. It's time to focus on yourself rather than the search for a new love interest. You're so quick to accept the best and worst in others. Why not do the same for yourself?

Dating has gotten to your self-confidence lately. When you look in the mirror, all you see are a million supposed flaws. However, the reality is very, very different. Acknowledge how beautiful you are.

This individual might be too high-maintenance for any kind of relationship, even a casual one. Their initial charm wears off after one too many episodes of high drama. Keep it simple and you'll be happier.

You're feeling that surge of fiery energy that strikes every now and then -- and pushes you to act on impulse. It's the perfect time for you to show someone how you feel in a fresh new way!

You and a friend are working well together today, and you might be able to overcome surprisingly burdensome obstacles. It's one of those times when you feel like a part of something bigger.

It's a day filled with trivia -- which can be great fun for you! Expect little of major importance in your life, though of course other folks might be dealing with pressing issues and not have time for you.

You're in the mood for something much bigger -- and much better -- than you have been used to lately, and you should try to indulge that impulse. It's a good time to splurge, so think big!

You are feeling the urge to revel in today's big business -- and you should! Your great energy is just right for pushing ahead and making the most of every opportunity, and you should have plenty of help.

You feel pretty overwhelmed by today's mix of activities. You may need to try something a little different in order to cope -- maybe dropping an appointment, maybe asking for assistance.

Expect plenty of questions and interruptions today -- but they aren't exactly unwelcome! You may find that you've got more answers than questions, but that's all part of the fun for you.

Expect a weird message related to work today -- and it may not come from your current employer. Things are getting a bit more challenging, but if you can rise to meet your circumstances, you're sure to excel!

You and your people are still in the throes of something exciting -- and your great energy should help you make the most of it! See if you can maneuver yourself into something even better.

Watch out for surface appearances, as they can be quite deceptive today. Your energies are better spent on dealing with certainties and your own personal projects than trying to figure others out.

It's important for you to reach out and compromise with a colleague or family member who seems unwilling to bend. If you get things started, you're much more likely to get them to see things your way.

Reality comes knocking today, and if you're fast enough to switch gears, you can make a real difference in your life. If not, it's not that big a deal -- you're used to dealing with different levels of reality.

Though the weather is on the chilly side, don't let things get too hot on the inside. Make sure to set the dryer to medium heat, and don't let the iron rest on any shirts for too long. Things within the house will have a tendency to be scorching today.

The sofa has been in your family for years, first as the main living room couch, then off to the den for more informal lounging sessions. But after years of service, it may be time to put aside sentimentality and retire Old Blue.

In addition to having spectacular ideas today, you'll also have the motivation to put these ideas to action. Carry around a tape measure and a notepad -- in just a couple of hours you'll be coming back from the hardware store with your materials.

This is not a day for you to get anything from the bargain basement. Unless you buy top of the line, appliance shopping won't be worth your while. But don't worry -- the extended warranty will help you sleep better at night.

Maybe it's the sunlight, or maybe it's your new floor wax, but something is making your kitchen floor radiant. Take pride in your lovely hardwood flooring, and don't feel silly asking your housemates to walk around in their socks today!

You didn't realize that it was the absolute wrong season to re-pot your beloved violet, and now it's over-watered and barely clinging to life. Put the plant by the heater to prevent mold from forming, and let Sun through the window work its magic.

A house dispute may gurgle to the surface today, perhaps revolving around who forgot to fertilize which part of the garden. Defuse the argument with your charm and begin to delegate tasks like the leader that you are.

Though you're not quite ready to add on to your cozy home, you could enlarge the feel of it with a few well-placed mirrors. Be careful not to obsess over your own appearance, though, each time you stroll down the hallway.

The piece of art that you bought last week is so precious, you don't want to risk having it shipped. Take a journey to pick up the treasure. You'll enjoy looking in the backseat and seeing something beautiful en route to your home!

For a while you thought that you were not keeping up your end of the deal, but you've come to discover that your housemate may be too demanding. Communicate that a little dust on the shelf or a dish in the sink is what makes your home feel lived in.

Due to a barrage of interruptions, your focus is shot. Whether you've lost your place in the knitting pattern or can't remember where you left off in the recipe, take your time and backtrack, and be sure you're not making big mistakes.

Some light drama in the household will have you turning up the volume all afternoon. Crank up the music, get out the blender or turn on the vacuum. This is your day to relax and you don't need to hear any bickering.

A lot of last year's difficulties, if you think about it, boiled down to a lot of fiddly little details getting in the way of you realizing your dreams. Let's be honest about it, Aries: struggling with the small stuff just isn't your style. In the next year, you'll find that a lot of these pressures... want more?

Taurus always gets tagged with things like 'pleasure-seeking' and 'materialistic.' That's probably unfair, in most cases. You're just as good at dishing out the pleasure as you are at seeking it, and who doesn't like a few nice things around? Sadly, there's been just too much struggle in your life... want more?

Isn't it great being a Gemini? All that charm, that mental flexibility, that ability to see both sides of the issue ... you're the wonder of the zodiac. Take a bow. The problem with that is that both sides of the issue have been kind of a drag. Good news: that's all going to change in the next... want more?

One thing that all Crabs (astrological Cancers or the seafood type of crab) know deep in their hearts is that someone, somewhere out there knows how great it would be to bust them wide open and eat them with melted butter. The big news for you this year, Cancer, is that Pluto has moved into your... want more?

Oh, big playful Leo -- how the last couple of years have been dramatic (and often less than kind) for you! There's little doubt that whatever you've gone through in the last year, the uppers have fueled your inherent charm and lovability, and the downers have gotten a little ignored. That's one of... want more?

The symbol for Libra is Balance. In the next year, you'll find yourself doing even more balancing than usual; you're going to be pressed to decide if your internal sense of happiness should be the focus of life more than the outward signs of success. This may have been weighing heavily on your mind... want more?

Scorpios have a certain reputation for taking things a little too seriously, and to some extent you've earned that. The next year is going to give you new opportunities to really express yourself in new ways, and to get results from all that Scorpionic intensity you've been carrying around all your... want more?

Did you just hear that gigantic cry of 'hooray'? That was the sound of millions of Sagittarian lives getting better in 2010. Pluto has moved out of your sign, and Saturn has left Virgo (which wasn't doing you any favors either, as you may have noticed from the unusual pressures in your home life,... want more?

One of the things that never seems to come across in those generic descriptions of Capricorns is their inherent sweetness. You're every bit as kind and caring as anyone else (if not more so), but have a tendency to hide it behind a mask that downplays your vulnerability. Now that Pluto (the planet... want more?

Aquarius often gets pegged as being a little too cerebral for its own good. But the truth is, that's where you do your best work. The next year is going to give you the opportunity to use those sharp mental powers to focus on what it is you really want out of life. Two eclipses fall in your Twelfth... want more?

Okay, pause for a moment and check your pulse. Still there? Good. That means you survived the last couple of years with both Saturn and Pluto in less-than-perfect places for you. And by 'less than perfect,' I mean 'lousy.' Good news! Both of astrology's heavyweights have moved on to more... want more?

Whew! Feel that enormous burden sliding off of your shoulders, like you've been carrying around an overstuffed backpack for the last couple of years? That would be Saturn, planet of structures and limitation, moving out of your sign. Congratulations, first of all, on having simply made it through... want more?

Happy 2010, everyone! Regardless of what Sun sign you are, the one thing you can always count on is change ... the planets are always moving. New action and new players will be entering your life throughout the year. Like a weather forecast, your Yearly Horoscope can help you plan ahead, from... want more?

It's a great day to put the past behind you and start fresh. You've been forward-looking for a long time and today is no exception. You have enough energy and excitement to last you for quite a while if you use it right. Apply it to exclusively profitable endeavors.

You have no qualms about being pompous, but with the way your last year went, there's really not much to be arrogant about. Just looking at your bank account is a humbling experience. That attitude adjustment alone could be worth a small fortune, so cheer up.

It's a good day to think about the year ahead. You don't need to come up with any new ideas, you need to think of ways to make the ones you already have come to life. A real plan is in order. That alone will help both you and others take your ideas seriously, and that's the first real step.

You're very focused on prospects for the new year, but don't forget about the more distant future, too. Decisions you make now could affect things way down the line. Even the activities you choose for today can have a serious financial ripple effect. Choose wisely.

Your willpower of the last year shows. You've made a dent in your debt or increased your savings or both. It's premature to rest on your laurels, but an inexpensive pat on the back is in order. Find a good way to recognize your own achievement.

Don't brag about how well you weathered the last year, now that you know yourself. It's better to let others continue thinking of you as the underdog. No one will be asking you for a loan any time soon, that much you can count on. If you really want to help others, do it discretely.

You're still not back to your normal schedule, far from it. Your concerns still revolve around which people you'll be actively in touch with. Your friends look to you to organize any events that may happen. As long as you don't spend the lion's share, be their leader.

Don't look over your shoulder if it only makes you stressed. It's not as if you're walking down a dark alley -- exactly. Your wallet could get snatched, but not by thugs. Look forward to the light, instead. Did you hear prophet or profit?

The random is your friend. You'll get bumped up to first class by sheer luck. Don't think this is a skill you can count on to keep yourself afloat. Enjoy the fun of good fortune dropped in your lap, and then move on to more ordinary things.

It's not an easy day, but not because you're having business problems. They're still on the back burner. Today you're dealing with bullies or hogs who demand more than their fair share of whatever's yours. Don't let them bring out the worst in you.

You're compromised, but only because you haven't begun your new year yet. You're still sort of stuck in between last year and the new one. It feels to you like you're still in 2009, though, which is even worse. Be patient. Financial changes begin in a few short days.

There's not much of a distinction between fantasy and reality right now. With things still in limbo, you're not sure if you should be elated about your prospects or gulping with anxiety. Since you can at least pretend to choose, choose elation.
