Daily horoscopes for 23rd May, 2008

[AstrologyBot]

Aries:

Today you will finally start to see signs that your latest business or career plans are finally coming together! Once again, your drive for success has not let you down -- it's taken you to a really nice place in your life, and you have many options. Use this day as a sort of rest stop on the road to your goals, and kick back with one of your favorite people. Take a long lunch with them and talk about something other than what you have been working on for so long.

Taurus:

Today is likely to be very fairly quiet, which will enable you to feel a lot more grounded and positive than you've felt in quite a while. Nothing much is going to get to you. Even that annoying person won't be quite so annoying to you today. And so what if traffic's bad? You're not in any hurry, so why choose to be stressed out about things you can't control? You are gaining a healthy perspective on what matters and what does not matter in life.

Gemini:

Today, an unforeseen event could make you feel like you're under the gun. But this dramatic change in your day will actually be quite invigorating -- it will bring out your more competitive side and help you find a lot of excitement in beating the clock. This will be a fun day, full of twists and turns that pump up your energy level and help you make fast work of anything. It's a great day for finishing up big projects -- and an even better day for celebrating once you're done!

Cancer:

The universe is giving you a power surge today, which could cause some problems at work While this isn't necessarily something to be too worried about, you should definitely be careful not to step on anyone's toes. Politics demand that you treat the leader like the leader -- even if you think you could do a better job. Someone could be going through a bit of paranoia, so don't feed into it by being too aggressive with your ideas right away. Suggest them slowly and subtly.

Leo:

Being concise is extremely important today, because the people you'll be dealing with won't have a lot of time to waste. Their impatience doesn't have to push you, though -- if you don't feel like editing your requests or rushing through a juicy story, then don't. Just skip them and move on to the friends and coworkers who can afford to sit and chat for as long as you want. But if you need something from the busy folks, you had better cut to the chase and keep it short and sweet.

Virgo:

Shocking news will serve as a wake up call for you today -- but in a totally positive way. Someone has beaten the odds, which only goes to show you that you can too! This inspiration might arrive too late in the day for you to be able to apply this revelation to today, but the value of the lesson will stay with you forever. You can see what you need to do in the coming weeks to make all the changes in your life that you have been waiting to make. You'll feel empowered.

Libra:

Don't worry if you start off this day feeling a bit depressed -- it won't last very long. To help speed up your good cheer, try to get outside as soon as you can for a brief stroll. The fresh air will help you think more clearly and see things in the proper perspective. Being in a blue funk is nothing to worry about anyway -- you have to work through your feelings, and sometimes it's not a fun experience. The good news is that you will come to answers today that will make you feel very good.

Scorpio:

You have been thinking a lot about a person from your past whose wisdom could come in handy right now -- why not try to track them down? A few minutes online should get you a few leads, and you probably already are in contact with someone who's in contact with them. No matter how things were left between the two of you, they will be happy to hear from you -- and flattered that you want their insight. So play detective and track this useful person down. You will glad you did.

Sagittarius:

If you've got some worries on your mind, distract yourself! Don't listen to people who say you're running away from a problem -- if there is nothing you can do about the situation, you need to find a way to stop thinking about it! Shopping might be the perfect way to while away the hours and keep your mind occupied with silly things that don't really matter. That way, you can stop fretting over big things that really do matter. Wait this out, it will be okay.

Capricorn:

Today is a great day to try something that you have always wanted to try -- but have been too scared to tackle! Your fears are vanishing right now and your bold personality wants to come out to play. If you think about it, there is no point in holding back when it comes to what you really want. Push on! How else are you ever going to do it? You have the energy you need, so put it good use by pushing the envelope and exploring all the boundaries of your world.

Aquarius:

A friend or coworker you especially like is dealing with some heavy stuff right now, and you need to make exceptions for some of their potentially odd behavior. You might not be sure why things are happening the way they are happening with them, but you don't really need to. All you need to do is to let this person know you are concerned, and give them time to work things out on their own. More than anything else, they need your patience and your support right now.

Pisces:

Are you being too easy on yourself right now? It's not wise to set your goals too low -- sure, it makes it easier to attain them, but doesn't the victory feel a bit hollow? You need to start making yourself work harder -- especially today, when a truly great opportunity will practically land right in your lap. Of course, it will be a tough challenge for you -- but your brain and body are ready for it. And once you've reached this new goal, you will feel like a million bucks.
