Daily horoscopes for 4th August, 2008

[AstrologyBot]

Aries:

Your routine is about to be tossed on its ear by a new person. Suddenly you either desperately want to impress the heck out of them, or shadow them everywhere they go to find out what their secret is. They are so different from you that you find them more fascinating than the latest celebrity gossip, political news or anything else. Finding out what makes them tick will be one of those challenges that inspire you to get creative and clever. This person is good for you -- in one way or another.

Taurus:

Share some of that good energy you've got coursing through your veins right now! Crack a joke, flirt a little, and toss out a few compliments. Doing so will not only help you get favorable attention from some powerful people, it will help you turn a potentially ho-hum day into one that's full of adventure and excitement. Unleash all your charm and you will get promising results -- especially with someone with whom you're in a fairly new relationship.

Gemini:

It can be tough to get your feelings across to someone, but it's totally impossible to do so when you won't spill the beans! Do you really think they can read your mind? And even if you give them tons of clues to figure out how you feel, they could easily misread them. The only way this thing is going to move forward is for you to use words! Tell them what's been on your mind. They're ready to hear it, and eager to tell you what's been on their mind!

Cancer:

Today you're going to encounter a lot of people who appeal to your more logical and analytical side, which will be perfect for the mental mood you're in. It's not that the people who always tug at your heartstrings won't get your sympathy -- it's just that you won't really be as willing to bend over backwards for the sake of their feelings. But if someone has a good fact-based argument as to why you need to come to their aid, you'll be all over it!

Leo:

Someone you always thought was very introverted is going to prove you wrong today, when they explode out of their shell and cook up an exciting party plan. Find out how you can hop on board this party express! Things are changing in their life in exciting ways, and you couldn't be happier for them. Don't be surprised if they reveal to you in a quiet moment that you were the inspiration for much of their growth. Try to pretend that you never suspected it.

Virgo:

Having a messy car or bedroom sure isn't the end of the world, but isn't it nice to see order and cleanliness around you? Always being surrounded by clutter or a mess might not consciously bother you, but you will think more clearly if you have less disorganization to distract you. Spend a little time cleaning up your world. Tidy up here and there. You don't have to scrub and scour every surface -- just create more open spaces and clean visuals. You'll feel a lot more relaxed when you do.

Libra:

Complicated tasks will be given to you today, and you might be a bit intimidated, at first. When you are faced with too many details, you tend to shut down, but that's not a sign of weakness. Feel free to take your time, sort through things, and figure out your plan before you get started. Most importantly, do not let anyone rush you! Rushing creates mistakes, and you don't want to be making any of those right now. After putting your plan together, you'll be able to get through things quickly.

Scorpio:

A friend is acting like they are doing you a favor by inviting you along somewhere -- they seem intent on making you feel unwelcome, and it's working. There is some mean game playing going on here, and the only way you can get out of it is to say 'no.' Even if you really want to go, it's just not worth it if you have to feel in debt to them the entire time. When a friend starts making you feel bad about yourself, it's time to rethink whether or not they should be your friend.

Sagittarius:

The exciting plans you have coming up are luring your focus away from the task at hand, and you've got to be careful that you keep your head in the game, today. You can't rush ahead, right now -- there are details that need to be covered, and they need to be covered completely. This is not the time for taking shortcuts or leaving loose ends for someone else to tie up later. You need to follow through on the commitments you made to get the responsibilities you have worked so hard to earn.

Capricorn:

You're well-suited to being a solo act right now, so don't worry if you're not asked to join a team or collaborate with a coworker -- it's for the best, anyway. You'll be better able to control where you are going and what you are doing. Plus, being by yourself today will help you stay grounded and focused. Even if you're feeling a bit lonely in the morning, by mid-afternoon you will hit your stride and be grateful there's no one holding you back.

Aquarius:

Getting a little taste of power can be a curse more than a blessing today -- as soon as you see for yourself how wonderful it feels, you're going to want to get more and more control over the day's activities. And this might not be possible unless you push some people so hard that they turn away from you. Getting power is not worth getting people angry, so when you hit a wall or hear someone tell you 'no', you need to be ready to obey. Your time is coming soon, just wait.

Pisces:

Your financial situation is looking good, right now, but is it too good to be true? Today, you need to find all the facts -- review recent transactions, double check your math, and look ahead a month or two and see what major bills or purchases might be coming up. Making bold investment moves might be exciting right now, but you still need to take your time. Read things through, and be very careful. You worked hard for your money, so you have to work hard to make sure it will grow.
