Daily horoscopes for 17th June, 2008

[AstrologyBot]

Aries:

Grab a hold of your pioneering spirit today, because you will be asked to do a little exploring today. You will have the opportunity to try something no one has ever done before, which should go a long way toward spicing up your life and making things interesting once again! Let other people travel the well-worn highways of life, never doing anything that scares them. For you, today, it's all about making your own way and facing unfamiliar challenges. You can do it!

Taurus:

The less you have financial dealings with others today, the better. It's not that you necessarily need to save any money, it's just that your emotions are uncertain, and you could be associating buying something with solving something. Paying a problem to go away isn't the right idea -- it will only help you waste your money. You need to focus on any challenges you encounter the right way. They will take hard work, but hard work is the only way to solve things, once and for all.

Gemini:

Observe the environment around you closely today -- especially when you are in a crowded location. Not only will the people-watching be great, it will also be educational -- and even maybe a little inspiring. Expect to collect some new fashion ideas and a juicy tidbit of overheard gossip. Maybe you'll even make lingering eye contact with a cute stranger! Today it will be way more fun sitting on the sidelines watching the world go by than it would be living in the center of the action.

Cancer:

You probably don't want to go public with your latest private life problem, and the good news is that you don't really have to -- just share the news about your current predicament with the one or two people in your life who really know you, inside and out. Divulge only as much as you want, they will probably be able to guess the rest. If you share too much too soon, the conversation could dissolve into a mutual whine-fest, and no one will get much done.

Leo:

The people around you today don't seem like they are saying what they truly mean -- could they be holding their tongue because they are afraid of hurting your feelings or ticking you off? When they ask you for your opinions, you don't mince words -- so why should they? Speak up and let them know that when you ask them a question, you expect the truth. Ask for this kind of honesty today -- and be prepared for what it may bring you. Dancing around the truth is a waste of time.

Virgo:

Not in a social mood right now? Force yourself. It might sound counterintuitive, but if you are dreading that upcoming party or night out, the last thing you should do is cancel your reservation and stay home on the couch like you want to. Your gut may be telling you to stay home, but the universe is telling you to go out -- and the universe always trumps your gut. Once you get out there and see the people and feel the energy around you, you'll get swept up into the action and enjoy yourself.

Libra:

Soon, someone you care about is celebrating a birthday or anniversary of some sort -- and you should make sure they know that you remembered! Belated wishes are fine, but it's much more meaningful if you can be prepared and greet them the right way at the right time. Try to be more expressive about how you feel by writing a poem, making them a little gift, or creating a card that it more genuine than anything from a store. You will be so happy and proud of yourself for treating them right.

Scorpio:

Today, that bad, nagging feeling you've been having about something or someone will start to fade away. All of your worries were unfounded, which will become evident by the end of today. You trusted your instincts, but they turned out to be wrong -- it is extremely rare, but it does happen. Don't focus on the fact that you were wrong -- focus on the fact that your stress is ending! And in the future, you don't have to doubt yourself. Things happen for a reason.

Sagittarius:

Today, all of your choices and ideas will have everyone buzzing with admiration -- and maybe even just a wee bit of jealousy. But you can't let other people's envy get you down. Keep on busting out with your smart style, and stop caring who's getting all worked up about it. It's their problem if they can't give you support without giving you attitude. You can (and should) serve as a good example for them to follow. Show them that being an independent thinker is key.

Capricorn:

It wouldn't hurt you to have a little more discipline in your life, so why are you so annoyed by the prospect of following the rules? Knowing what is right and what is wrong doesn't have to feel stifling -- if you just switch your perspective, rules will actually help to simplify your life and give you a clear idea of the path you should be on. Playing around and goofing off is fun, but is it really getting you anywhere? This behavior is just keeping you going in circles.

Aquarius:

The advice you give to friends today might not be warmly received, but it will sink in nevertheless. So don't think that just because they don't thank you for what you said that they didn't listen to it. Passing on what you have learned from your past mistakes is something undeniably valuable -- and they know that. They are glad you care enough to open up about what you know -- but not necessarily eager to do as you say. They have their own life to lead, and their own mistakes to learn from.

Pisces:

It is always wise to question authority, but you should not go so far as disrespecting the people who are in power right now. You need to believe that they are doing the right thing unless and until you see proof of anything different. Do not listen to the people who are trash-talking the powers that be right now. They have ulterior motives, and are trying to get you to see things their way. Instead, you should look at the facts, so that you can see things your way.
