| | | | News | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |  | | | Editors Picks  | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Your Daily Horoscope - Aries | | | If someone is asking for your assistance, avoid saying yes if you really don't have the time. It's a nice gesture to want to help, but not if it's only going to put you behind in your own schedule. Try to get them in touch with someone who does have the time and expertise; otherwise, you won't do them or you any favors. | | | | | | | Your Daily Horoscope - Cancer | | | The moon is in your zone of friendships, so it could make you feel more unsettled and impatient than normal. Stay clear of negative people, and focus on your positive plans. So much powerful energy is around you at the moment; don't get caught up in other people's turbulent lives. | | | | | | | Your Daily Horoscope - Libra | | | You love to spoil the people you love. But you may not get back the same level of attention, so be careful of putting expectations on what you give. When choosing a partner, make sure they have the qualities that are most important to you. If your sweetie constantly does not give you what you need, it's time to have a heart-to-heart and make some tough decisions. | | | | | | | Your Daily Horoscope - Capricorn | | | It's possible that your plans could change this weekend, particularly if you have made travel arrangements. Trips could be cut short without notice, public transportation could run late or someone could cancel a getaway. Just go with the flow; it will give you time to do something else. | | | | | | | Your Daily Horoscope - Taurus | | | You are no pushover and can throw a curve ball when you want to, but you can also be charming and eloquent. Use this more attractive side of your personality to manage a tricky situation at work. If you can get people to agree with your viewpoint, you will all be on the winning side. | | | | | | | Your Daily Horoscope - Leo | | | You have a quick mind and know how to present an argument. However, in doing so, make sure you ask more questions than you answer; this will engage others in a discussion. When you let someone else have the stage and do all the talking, it can give you a far greater insight into what type of person they really are. | | | | | | | Your Daily Horoscope - Scorpio | | | Compatibility rates high on the love wish list. There is no point in hooking up with someone who doesn't have some similar interests. If you're into work and making money, and they just like to spend it, you could have a problem. Don't enter into a relationship with someone who doesn't embody the things you want. | | | | | | | Your Daily Horoscope - Aquarius | | | As always, you may need to make compromises, but be careful of making adjustments that are suitable for everyone else but you. Instead, try to reach a middle ground and aim for a win-win outcome. Don't settle for something that isn't ideal; it will only come up for review later and you will have to go through the whole conversation and procedure again. | | | | | | | Your Daily Horoscope - Gemini | | | When it comes to solving a puzzle, you're the person others call on; that's been proven to the honchos at work time and time again. Since everyone at the office already knows how brilliant you are, there's no need to do everything yourself. Other people can help; all you have to do is delegate. Many hands make light work, and teamwork is a winning formula. | | | | | | | Your Daily Horoscope - Virgo | | | You might be wondering about love and life in general, but over these next few weeks, you can gain insights that might not have occurred to you. It's not likely to be something a person says; it's more what they do that can spark a change. This might allow you to see something or someone through different eyes. | | | | | | | Your Daily Horoscope - Sagittarius | | | If you're regularly arguing with a lover or best friend, try to be as tolerant as possible. They may do something that's infuriating, but stop and think: Is it them, or is it your expectation of what they should be doing? They may not be perfect, but then again, who is? | | | | | | | Your Daily Horoscope - Pisces | | | If someone needs good advice, they will likely tap on your shoulder. Expect to be in the right place at the right time to lend a hand. If you're at the office, don't stand back when a co-worker or superior asks for assistance; if you can help, go ahead and reach out. | | | | |
