Aries
As recently as yesterday, you might have been confident that everything was in order and you were chugging along on the right track. However, obstacles appear in your path now, revealing weak links in your chain of logic and causing you to doubt your previous decisions.
Instead of feeling discouraged today, be thankful your current experiences are helping you to see the truth. Dr. Wayne Dyer wrote, “It’s never too late to change the direction that your life is going in.”
Taurus
You recognize the importance of being practical and your plans reflect your common-sense approach to life. However, you can’t block out the signals you’re receiving from the cosmos today as they tantalize you with enchanting fantasies and unrealistic dreams.
Unfortunately, satisfaction is elusive when you are attracted to the beauty that is just beyond your reach. Rather than setting yourself up for failure, do your best to discern the difference between fact and fiction. Abolitionist Sojourner Truth said, “Truth is powerful and it prevails.”
Gemini
Yesterday’s frustrations turn into today’s determination. Encountering a setback on another day might be enough to send you into a tailspin, but now it only increases your resolve. Fortunately, you can overcome nearly anything reality sends your way, oddly enjoying the challenge in the process.
Keep your eyes on the prize and don’t be distracted by a less ambitious set of goals, even if they would be easier to accomplish. Basketball star Michael Jordan said, “I didn’t come here to be average.”
Cancer
You might have to explain your behavior to someone who appears to be resisting your efforts today. Unfortunately, they seem unable to comprehend your intentions no matter how many times you cover the same material. Your observations and conclusions are so straightforward that you may think others are just playing dumb because they don’t want to understand your position.
Although people can use words to maintain a state of denial, the result of your actions cannot be dismissed as easily. Claim your power and stand your ground.
Leo
Your enthusiasm slams into an invisible barrier today, as if some futuristic force field anticipates your every move. Nevertheless, there are weak spots in the wall and your unrelenting attempts to carry out your plan enable you to break on through to the other side.
Instead of giving up at the first sign of trouble, focus all your energy on the desired outcome, make whatever adjustments seem necessary, and try again. Luckily, persistence pays off when all else fails.
Virgo
Although it’s still too soon to start celebrating, it feels as if you have passed through the eye of the needle. Fortunately, your endless passion for the truth rewards you with the exact information you need at this time. Now that you have a more complete picture of the interpersonal dynamics at play, you can put the finishing touches on your master plan. Still, there is much work to do before you can harvest the fruits of your labor.
Naturalist Hal Borland wrote, “Knowing trees, I understand the meaning of patience. Knowing grass, I can appreciate persistence.”
Libra
You may be inadvertently setting yourself up to have your bubble of illusion burst, creating an emotional meltdown in a relationship. But you might believe in the power of positive thought so strongly that you’re committed to clinging to a fantasy long after you discover it’s not real.
Reexamine your assumptions and realign your expectations based on current facts rather than past hopes. Thankfully, your swift actions can prevent an unpleasant situation from turning into an unnecessary crisis. Cultivating honesty builds trust.
Scorpio
Resurrecting an old idea could be a brilliant move today if it holds up under renewed scrutiny. However, you may be so enamored with your new version of an old plan that you don’t see its obvious shortcomings. Send up a test balloon by asking a trustworthy coworker for a second opinion.
If they give you a nod of approval, run with your proposal. But be prepared to change your tactics if you encounter resistance based on sound thinking. Dr. Debasish Mridha wrote, “The measure of a person’s strength is not his muscular power or strength, but it is his flexibility and adaptability.”
Sagittarius
You find rejection a difficult pill to swallow, especially if someone criticizes your innovative suggestions today. You’re not in the mood to jump through hoops to pitch your solution to a current problem. Naturally, you want others to accept your ideas, even if they are unproven.
Stop defending your plan; assimilate the feedback you receive even if it’s too harsh for your liking. President Bill Clinton said, “The price of doing the same old thing is far higher than the price of change.”
Capricorn
You know your perceptions are uncannily accurate now, and you’re pleased with how you organized a complex array of data. You’re certain your strategy is a smart one and you’re eager to see people jump on board. Although you must present your plan coherently for others to join your cause, it still feels as if you’re fighting an uphill battle to get anyone to listen to your ideas today.
Nevertheless, going silent isn’t helpful when you’re on a mission that comes from your heart. Nicole Kidman said, “Whatever you do in life, don’t give up on your own dreams.”
Aquarius
You feel so stuck in your current routine that you want to turn your entire schedule upside down. Although living in chaos is not sustainable, introducing uncertainty into your world could be quite interesting today. You may appear unconventional and even rebellious but ultimately, you’re more cautious and calculating than anyone realizes now.
Your attempts to stir up the status quo are not the actions of a desperate person, but rather a sensible strategy to creating real change. Ralph Waldo Emerson wrote, “All life is an experiment. The more experiments you make the better.”
Pisces
You may have recently said something unkind or argumentative, and now you wish you could take it back. Unfortunately, there’s no undo key for real-time conversations. You might try to avoid talking about your transgression, but your coworkers could be overly preoccupied with your behavior.
Although an apology is likely in order, it will take time for others to forget your mistake. Nevertheless, your conciliatory message can settle the disrupted energy, enabling everyone to move on. Josh McDowell wrote, “Forgiveness is the oil of relationships.”
