TODAY'S DAILY HOROSCOPE:
Aries:
Hopefully, you didn't tax yourself too much yesterday, because here's an energetic day especially designed to bring out the spontaneous, enthusiastic side of your personality. Even more than usual, that is.


Taurus:
A secret isn't going to stay secret much longer -- and yes, it certainly could involve a relationship. Prepare yourself. It's time to take your show on the road. Don't be shy, now.

Gemini:
This is perfect astrological weather for your fleet-footed, keen-witted sign. Make the most of it. Dash about, chat your happy little face off and mingle. Definitely lots of mingling. Go!

Cancer:
The heavens have arranged a perfect day for you, complete with easy, lighthearted encounters -- and maybe even the chance to deliver or accept a long-overdue apology. Oh, go ahead. It's time.


Leo:
A new friend will be along shortly with a life-changing statement. You need to be inspired, and you need the strength of a good example. Now open up your mind, and listen to your muse.


Virgo:
You're usually as discreet as a sign could possibly be. Now, however -- well, let's just say you'll be unusually assertive, especially when it comes to romance. Tread lightly. Why scare anyone unnecessarily?

Libra:
Stop pretending you don't know what's going on. Someone quite fiery and impulsive is interested in you, and you're fascinated. What do you have to gain by holding back? Let them know the feeling is mutual.


Scorpio:
You'll be very, very busy for the next couple of days -- but for once, that won't translate into stressed, hectic or frenzied. Think of this as your opportunity to get a lot done with a great big smile on your face.


Sagittarius:
'Boring' has never been on your list of qualities, but you'll be absolutely unchained now and ready to risk whatever it takes to have some fun. Try something you've always wanted to do.


Capricorn:
A family member who's gotten themselves into a bit of a situation may need some advice, and they'll certainly want it from you. But how far out on that ledge are you willing to go?


Aquarius:
As if you ever needed any help being impulsive and spontaneous, keep in mind that there will be no two-second delay now between what you think and what you say.

Pisces:
If you're out shopping for a gift, you won't be the soul of frugality. Just don't get too crazy -- today's plastic quickly turns into tomorrow's finance charges. Stay within your budget. It really is the thought that counts.



DAILY ZEN THOUGHT:

Consider the world light,
And the spirit is not burdened;
Consider the myriad things slight,
And the mind is not confused.
Consider life and death equal,
And the intellect is not afraid;
Consider change as sameness,
And clarity is not obscured.
