Daily horoscopes for 8th July, 2008

[AstrologyBot]

Aries:

You might get a bit bored with your routine today, but be careful about creating conflict just for the sake of entertainment. Any spats that get going today will definitely not be fun, so be grateful for the fact that while no great excitement is going on in your life, no hairy dramas are spinning out of control, either. Roll with the punches and try to be satisfied with what you have in your life. It's so much better than what it could be. Appreciation is a wonderful skill to cultivate.

Taurus:

One of your best qualities is that you know how to say 'thank you' to people who have done good things for you, and your role in a work group is about to grow bigger because of it. The higher ups know that you always give credit where credit it due, which is key in a good leader. So if you are ready for your career to blossom, then you need to take on the challenging opportunity that is about you be given to you. And don't forget to thank them for it!

Gemini:

Get ready to get involved in some in-depth conversations today, because people will be much chattier with you than usual. It's just something about the vibe you're giving off right now. People want to know you better, and they're curious about what you think regarding some plans they have brewing. Be diplomatic with your feedback, because you're probably not going to be too impressed by what they have to say. Your opinion means a lot to them, so be gentle.

Cancer:

Right now you will get a real rush out of taking chaos and turning it into order, which makes it a great time for you to clean up around the house -- you'll actually really enjoy it! Pop in your favorite CDs or turn on your favorite radio station and let the music keep you company while you dust, vacuum, and clear out all of the clutter. Mellower sounds will help you focus, while dance beats will push you to keep going. Boogie your way to a cleaner and calmer environment!

Leo:

You should adhere to more conservative ideas today. Play things safe, and don't be too generous with too many people, even the ones you think deserve your generosity. You might think you have a lot of time and resources right now, but give things a second glance this afternoon -- you'll notice that you really can't afford to spread things around too much. Forget about your idea to take someone out to lunch, and trim back your budget for that friend's birthday present.

Virgo:

Be careful not to push yourself too hard, today. Why pressure yourself into taking on a bigger workload when you don't really need to? Sure, you may crave the challenge, but at what cost? There are too many small details in the stuff you've currently got on your plate, and you simply cannot afford adding more to them. Before you accept any new assignments, focus on one single project and finish it up. Make room for more by completing what you have.

Libra:

Are your friends getting too involved in your plans for the day? If you let everyone put in their two cents about everything, you'll never get anywhere! It's time to stop being such a good listener and start being more independent in how you go about things. Instead of getting everyone's input on what the right plan is, just go off and do what you think will work best. If you're wrong, who cares? You'll learn something, and show folks that you can think for yourself.

Scorpio:

Today the operative word is silence. If your top secret information is too hot for public disclosure, then keep it to yourself instead of telling it to anyone. If you can't think of something nice to say about someone, then say nothing instead of being critical. And if your last nerve is shot and someone works it again, give them the silent treatment instead of blowing up at them. It will be tough for you to verbalize -- it's not a good day to speak your mind.

Sagittarius:

Like a baby that can stare at jingling keys for hours, you might be easily distracted by shiny things today -- which could cause you some difficulty with authority. But as long as you make sure you get everything done in a timely manner, you'll be fine. Give yourself little deadlines all day and you'll not only make your boss happy, you'll give yourself a great sense of accomplishment. Don't scold yourself for having scattered thoughts -- it's only to be expected right now.

Capricorn:

Today might not be an easy day for communication. There will be a lot of unpredictability in terms of people's motives and energy levels, and people might not realize what they are saying. Just be ready to change things on the fly. This is a day to utilize all your flexibility and patience. When someone in power says they want something done a certain way, you can expect them to change their mind before long. If you are expecting it, it won't bother you so much.

Aquarius:

Your ability to see the bright side of things has always helped you, and today it can help someone you care about. Your fresh outlook could give a blue friend hope that things can (and will) get better for them. Make some time for this discussion. Go off together on a walk, take them out to dinner, or just ask them if they'd like to grab a cup of coffee somewhere. Ask them to tell you everything so you can cover the details point by point and help them relax.

Pisces:

Today, there is a lot of unpredictability in the air. Something you assumed was going to happen looks like it's off the agenda. You don't have to try to hide your disappointment, but it probably won't last long anyway. As the afternoon approaches, a new person will arrive on the scene, and their antics will put a smile on your face. This isn't a day to count on having your normal routine. This is a day to enjoy whatever comes your way. It's going to be fun.
