Daily horoscopes for 27th August, 2008

[AstrologyBot]

Aries:

Feeling a bit stressed out? Then try to give away as much of your responsibilities as you can today -- that includes errands, chores, and other such tasks. You have plenty of family members, coworkers and friends who would be happy to take something off your plate and help you get a breather in your day. All they expect in return for helping you out is a sincere 'thank you,' because they know that you would do the same for them in the roles were reversed.

Taurus:

It is getting easier and easier for you to let people know what's on your mind. You're no longer hung up about what conclusions they may draw -- your self confidence is strong and you understand that you have every right to feel whatever you feel. Communicating your feelings to others also feels really appreciated today -- your feedback is always insightful, so you can expect coworkers to be asking for your input and criticism. You're so good at balancing tact with honesty!

Gemini:

If you're looking to buy a gift for someone who is very special to you, don't be too tight with money! That's not to say that you should spend outside of what is sensible or feasible, but it does mean that you should go a little farther to show them how much they mean to you. It's time to be generous and remind yourself that money is only worth something when you use it. Cut back with some of your personal luxuries to make up for the extra expense, if need be.

Cancer:

You're getting better and better at handling your emotions, which is helping you to connect much more effectively with the people you're working with right now. Trust this control you have when someone says something that ticks you off today -- you will be able to set them straight without blowing up at them, there is no doubt of that. This is the start of a very healthy phase for you, in terms of your relationships. This is the perfect day to extend an olive branch.

Leo:

Your recent accomplishment was really something to be proud of, so why are you being so modest about it? If you are afraid of making other people jealous, forget it. You can't live your life according to how you may or may not make someone else feel. So if you feel like shouting 'I'm a rock star!' from the rooftops, do it! No one is going to argue with you, given the platinum album evidence. And if someone gets green with envy, that's their problem, not yours. Sing your praises -- it's sweet!

Virgo:

You can never get a positive outcome on a project or in a competition if all you do is focus on negative energy. So today, do your best to put a positive spin on everything and everyone. See the bright side of things and stop dwelling on the bad things that are holding you back -- just pretend that they don't exist! There is so much hope in your life, and you need to start recognizing it. Tap into your more idealistic side, today, and you'll do well.

Libra:

Don't be surprised if, just when you are getting the hang of something, today, your routine will be disrupted. The good news is that this unexpected interruption will be a very happy one! Someone from your distant past is popping back into your present, either via email or a knock on the door -- they have some exciting news for you. The two of you have a lot to catch up on, so make them your top priority. Work can wait -- for a little while, at least.

Scorpio:

Try not to control too much, today. Giving some power over to someone else might not be an easy thing for you to do right now, but it will be an awful lot healthier for you. Let go of some responsibilities and give yourself some breathing room. Let other people choose where to go to dinner. Let another team member decide on the strategy for moving forward. Let your partner decide how you'll celebrate an anniversary. Give them a chance to put their spin on things.

Sagittarius:

There is some exciting news coming your way, today, although it could wreak havoc with your carefully-laid plans! That's why it's more important than ever for you to be flexible with your schedule. You also might need to convince other people to be more flexible in their expectations of you. Some deadlines or appointments might have to get shuffled around. Any stress that erupts will be minimal, though -- so don't worry about having a stressful day.

Capricorn:

Don't get too comfortable with the mood you're in when you wake up, because chances are it's going to change several times, as the day progresses! The extremes in energy you'll be experiencing today will help make the day go by quickly, but they could make it difficult to get anything done. If you're prepared for your mind to wander hither and yon you won't be too shaken up about it. Just chalk it up to the phases of the moon, and don't let it shake you.

Aquarius:

All signs point toward today being something of an emotional day for you, so get ready for some ups and down. You'd be doing yourself a huge favor if you were prepared for some bruised feelings. So if a friendly flirter is suddenly all business, don't take it personally. If someone has harsh feedback about something you did, focus on the constructive part of their criticism. Wear your thicker skin today, and nothing that happens will get deep enough to really sting.

Pisces:

It's a good time for you to pay more attention to the areas of your life that you have been neglecting for awhile -- a long forgotten project, a needy neighbor, or a faraway friend. They may be out of sight and out of mind, but they still need your attention. You'll have free time here and there throughout your day to address this forgotten task or person, so there is really no excuse for you not to touch base with the people you need to contact.

All:
