Today’s Horoscopes:Feb 2, 2009
Aries You may be a bit less optimistic about what’s ahead now, but this doesn’t give you cause for worry. You have a sense of resignation that will allow you to deal with whatever happens. Although the upcoming changes seem to be unavoidable, they might require a fair amount of adjustment on your part. If you take your time as you move through the shift, it will be easier than if you attempt to do it all at once.
Taurus The Moon’s return to your sign is like a breath of fresh air, for it settles your feelings and enables you to rediscover your core. Who you are inside may not always be so apparent to your friends and co-workers, but now it’s easy for you to say what you feel. Pick your confidants carefully, for you could reveal more than you originally intended.
Gemini You aren’t willing to give out too much information today, which may seem out of character for you. But don’t let anyone talk you into doing anything that rubs you the wrong way. It’s OK to keep your fantasies to yourself for as long as you wish. You don’t have to explain anything to anyone right now unless you really want to share your innermost feelings with someone you trust.
Cancer Your friends mean a lot to you, but today they might get on your nerves a bit. You have a number of things you want to do and your needs won’t necessarily align with the needs of others. You may be better off telling your companions to go their way without you, even if their agenda looks like more fun than yours. Do what you must and then try to catch up with them later on if you have time.
Leo It’s all about appearances today and you may need to put on a professional front in order to make the most of a current opportunity. But your little performance isn’t about trying to mislead anyone; rather, you should seek a venue to demonstrate your good taste and competence so that everyone else knows exactly what you can do.
Virgo Although you have a lot on your plate these days, you excel at prioritizing your tasks and doing things one step at a time. Now, however, the devil is truly in the details, yet you could be obstinate about staying focused on the big picture. Today you would prefer someone else to clean up all the small stuff for a change so you can keep your attention on the global perspective.
Libra Someone may go head-to-head with you over an important issue today, but it won’t likely turn into an open conflict. Fortunately, your willingness to see both sides of the story can be a great help as you attempt to find common ground. Paradoxically it’s your uncharacteristic decisiveness now that enables the negotiation process to run smoothly because each person knows where the other one stands, making it easier to resolve the differences diplomatically.
Scorpio Dealing with someone who is as stubborn as you are can be problematic today. Your feelings are intense and if you know that you’re right, they can get in the way of an amicable discussion. Don’t let a petty disagreement explode into an outright fight for survival. It’s not necessary to force a resolution. Just acknowledge your emotions and listen carefully to what the other person has to say. You will have another chance to seek common ground after everyone has time to cool off.
Sagittarius You know what you need to do today and can become quite testy when anyone or anything appears to get in your way. It’s not that you can’t overcome almost any obstacle that pops up; it’s just that you aren’t interested in wasting your time or energy on something that doesn’t get you any closer to completing your work. But don’t react so quickly that you discourage someone who is simply offering to help you in your progress.
Capricorn This may be a relatively easy day for you as long as you don’t lose perspective. You are confident now about a recent decision, yet you could take your enthusiasm too far. Don’t be stubborn about your needs; allowing room for others to express what they want can make all the difference in the world. If you are willing to listen to your friends, they can also teach you something crucial for your own journey.
Aquarius You might be feeling uneasy today if your current reality doesn’t match your feelings. You are often able to detach from your emotions just enough to allow you to avoid discomfort. Today, however, your unfulfilled desires are very close to the surface and cannot be swept under a rug. Don’t hide the truth from yourself, even if it’s not what you want to hear.
Pisces It’s difficult to get any traction now, even if you know exactly what needs to be accomplished. It may feel as if there isn’t enough time to do everything that must be done and this may be true if you adhere to the current deadlines. But there could be more flexibility than you realize. Do as much as you can, but don’t be surprised if you have more time tomorrow than you did today.
