You feel drained and pushed beyond your limits. Know when to say
"enough." Be careful in a confusing situation, as you take a very
strong stand. You might not be comfortable with what comes up. Tonight:
Let others make declarations. You listen.
Taurus
Changes appear to be surfacing, whether you are ready or not. Consider
various scenarios that you might want to see in your domestic life. You
might be in a position to make an adjustment soon. Evaluate a recent
misunderstanding using a longer-range perspective. Tonight: Order in.
Gemini
You might want to choose different words, especially as a new
perspective will become available. A misunderstanding stems from
nowhere, if you are not careful. Eye a purchase with cynicism. You
might want to close the door to a relationship. Tonight: In the thick
of life and living.
Cancer
Use extreme care with your finances. What looks good today could be bad
news in a month. Avoid putting your John Hancock on anything right now.
You might not want to deal with the implications. Do not react or push
others. Tonight: Avoid attitude.
Leo
You might want to do something very different, as what is initiated
right now could end before it begins. Keep communication clear with an
openness to evaluating ideas that are very different from yours.
Tonight: Don't react to high energy. Use it.
Virgo
The time to keep your own counsel has arrived. The smart person does
not share too much just now. Use wisdom for your highest good. More
information will be told "confidentially" to you. Tonight: Relax;
sleep. Do what you want.
Libra
Zero in on what you want. A meeting could prove to be beneficial.
Knowing when to put a halt to a situation could mean the difference
between being a winner or a loser. You understand much more than you
know. Just listen to your inner voice. Tonight: In the thick of life.
Scorpio
Take a stand or handle a boss or authority figure. You will be much
happier without questioning someone. This person wants what he or she
wants, and you cannot change the direction of his or her will. Tonight:
In the action.
Sagittarius
Take an overview. You might want to rethink a situation when you get
news. In fact, you could be up for quite the reversal. Be willing to
take a risk. Tonight: Read between the lines.
Capricorn
Work with an important partner or financial source. You also might feel
as if you have no other choice. Be willing to take a stand and handle a
loved one or partner directly. Your ability to move a project forward
is not surprising. Tonight: Some people do drain you. Still, stop and
take time with a needy friend.
Aquarius
Others dominate. The smart Water Bearer will pull back and rethink his
or her decisions, perhaps, but will not make any final statements or
issue any ultimatums. Know when enough is enough. Tonight: Say "yes" to
living.
Pisces
Listen to feedback carefully. Understand what is happening with a child
or loved one, but also expect to behave in a nurturing manner. Words
might be nice, but actions have greater impact. Tonight: Take it easy.
