Aries

March 21 - April 19

You'll be dizzy today with the sensation that something isn't quite what it seems on the surface. Is a friend hiding some wonderful news for just the right moment? Look peppy and curious, and it will all be revealed to you.

Taurus

April 20 - May 20

It's not that you don't want to empty the cats' litter boxes or help exercise your sibling's ferret, it's just that you're busy! Make a deal with yourself. One hour of your project, one hour of helping with someone else's.

Gemini

May 21 - June 20

This afternoon you'll have a disagreement with a friend. It's a serious matter, and you shouldn't shy away from discussing it. It will help you figure out where you stand, but don't expect to come to an immediate consensus.

Cancer

June 21 - July 22

Your energy level will fluctuate wildly today. One minute you'll be bouncing out of your chair, the next you'll be dropping off to sleep. It'll be unpredictable, so don't worry about timing your activities to match your mood.

Leo

July 23 - Aug 22

Today you may find great pleasure in something someone else wants to throw away. If your parents are sick of something at home, offer to clean it up, and you'll probably get to keep the treasure in the end.

Virgo

Aug 23 - Sept 22

This is not the kind of day to keep to yourself. Strike up a conversation with a stranger your age or post a comment to your friend's blog. You'll be surprised at the smart things another person has to say.

Libra

Sept 23 - Oct 22

You're not interested in making a lot of noise today. You'll wear soft shoes and hop over the cracks in the sidewalk like you did when you were a little kid. Don't let this reticence make you shrink from interacting with others.

Scorpio

Oct 23 - Nov 21

It's a perfect day to crack open that book you've been staring at, cross-eyed and bored, for the past month or so. You'll have exactly the right kind of energy for reading: You're organized, focused and highly ambitious.

Sagitarius

Nov 22 - Dec 21

Your group of friends is anxious and divided this afternoon. Stay above the fray, if you can. The disagreement will blow over faster than a bit of cloud cover on a sunny day. Then you can move on to the good stuff.

Capricorn

Dec 22 - Jan 19

You may feel extra-sensitive today -- the littlest thing will send you spinning into the highest ecstasy or the lowest despair. It's nothing to worry about, but be sure to warn others if you're about to blow up.

Aquarius

Jan 20 - Feb 18

It's a good day to hide in your room and scribble pages and pages of little thoughts that have been floating through your head. When you finish, wrap your notes in brown paper and hide them in the back corner of a drawer.

Pisces

Feb 19 - March 20

You're itching to get started on your weekend project like you'd planned, but it turns out the prep work is more intensive than you thought. Don't rush. Being careful at the beginning will make everything so much easier later on.
