Daily horoscopes for 12th November, 2008

[AstrologyBot]

Aries:

Sometimes it feels like patience isn't a virtue as much as it's a method of torture! If you want to retain any sense of balance in your life, you are going to have to find a way to take your internal clock and slow it down! A great way to slow your roll would be to laugh a lot -- so get together with people who always have a funny take on things. Their quips and witty comments will help take your mind off your urge to rush around, and will help you stay hopeful for the future.

Taurus:

Slowing down might not feel comfortable right now, but it is the right thing to do. The intense energy you put out today shouldn't be directed at solving problems or putting out fires. Instead, direct it solely at reducing the level of commitment in your life! Put the brakes on a new business project, cool off an overwhelming new flirtation, or tell that pushy friend that you need some time to yourself -- whatever it takes to get yourself to a brand new level of boredom.

Gemini:

It is a good thing to share your ideas and goals with all the people in your life who can encourage you, but you need to do more than that, right now. After all, is talking about what you want going to get it for you? No! The only way you can get what you want is by working for it. Right now, while your desire is still great, you have to start focusing all of your energy on reaching your goals. You can make things happen in your life. Huge opportunities are right in front of you.

Cancer:

Your friends and family have been an invaluable source of support and inspiration for you over the years, and it is time that you thanked them all for their devotion. So why not mix your gratitude and your hospitality skills -- and throw a dinner party for everyone? Bring your two worlds together and watch all the people you love most make each other laugh and smile. You don't have to make it a big affair -- a potluck, picnic, or pizza party would all serve the same wonderful purpose.

Leo:

People will be projecting their own issues onto you, today -- so don't listen to those people who are pointing out your faults. They're either jealous of you or worried that they themselves are failing. It seems like everyone has issues right now, and their insecurities could start to get on your nerves. Before you lose your temper and tell them off, it's best to go off by yourself and be alone. You can't let yourself get caught up in feeding the egos of other people.

Virgo:

As exciting or tantalizing at they may seem, other people's dramas are going to do nothing but add trouble to your life right now, so steer clear! There is no need to get involved in anyone else's problems, even if you think you have a solution for them. They are different from you, so what worked for you might only make things worse for them. You can express your ideas, but do not offer advice and do not take anyone's side. Stay neutral right now.

Libra:

There is a new person coming into your life today, and their powerful magnetic charisma will be quite captivating! Just but be careful that it doesn't distract you from what you need to get done. Prioritize your responsibilities ahead of building a new connection with this person -- resisting their pull will be easy once you get engrossed in what you've got to get done. You are ready to share your time and your ideas with others, but first you have to fulfill your commitments.

Scorpio:

You will encounter someone today who seems like a text book example of a jerk -- but you have got to try to be open-minded about them! Judging a book by its cover has never been your style, so what start now? There are extenuating circumstances at work here. Maybe they're intimidated by you. Maybe they're acting out because they are nervous or just have a headache! You just don't know enough to know who they are. Give them a chance and give them time.

Sagittarius:

The smallest details of this day will be like blinking neon signs for you -- that's how powerful your observation skills will be. This means it's a great day for negotiations! You'll be able to read the other person's body language like it's an open book. And you'll be able to sense how close their offer is to what they are really capable of giving you. You will have the upper hand today, there is no denying that! You may have to explain what is going on to the confused folks around you.

Capricorn:

The new people you meet today hold a lot of opportunities for you, but keep in mind that there is more to them than meets the eye. People are very different on the inside than their appearances may lead you to believe, especially right now, when they are on their best behavior. If you make any assumptions about their beliefs, you should keep them to yourself, or risk offending someone. For safety's sake, wait until you know them better before sharing your opinions.

Aquarius:

Better than anyone else right now, you understand the energy that a connection between two people can create. It's all about pairs, for you -- group situations can be fun, but right now they're going to feel more strange than stimulating. What you really crave (and what you really need!) is to spend time with just one other person. It can be your sweetie, a sibling, a friend, or even a stranger. But living your life as part of a pair today will be very rewarding and revealing.

Pisces:

You'll be getting a lot of positive reinforcement today, in the form of beautiful words about how wonderful you are, how smart you are, how desirable you are. Naturally, this will leave you feeling pretty good about yourself! Build on that good feeling by taking a few more bold risks and challenges in your life -- you need to start believing that you can excel in the most demanding situations. After all, everyone else believes you can! It's perfectly fine to prove them right.
