(Capricorn, December 22 to January 19: Saying what you mean -- and meaning what you say -- can feel like a bit of a risk, but then, beating around the bush can get mighty tiring after a while. You can be honest while still maintaining a modicum of diplomacy. The bonus is that honesty begets honesty, and before you know it, you're actually having a meaningful and possibly productive dialogue. Bring your sense of humor and get started.)
(Aquarius, January 20 to February 18: If someone's asking you to do something you're uncomfortable with, you don't have to grin and bear it. Lodge a complaint -- with them, with yourself, even with a third party, if that seems appropriate. Make it official, or at least make a crystal-clear statement about what exactly is bothering you and how you'd like to see it be different. Sometimes saying it is enough to set the process of change in motion.)
(Pisces, February 19 to March 20: An idea about a big change could surface in your life now -- one related to work, or a relationship, or a big trip, or your living situation, or all of the above. So it's a whale of a concept; that doesn't mean you have to panic and start raising alarms on the ship of your life. Watch it calmly and see how you like the looks of it. What you should do will become clear in the fullness of time. Horoscope via Marie Claire. Photograph source, Jenny Packham S/S 09 via Fashion Moment. Until next week!)

(Libra, September 23 to October 22: You consider yourself a responsible person, but even you have your limits, and a certain situation could have you on the verge of telling someone where to go. This may, in fact, be a viable option, but it's not something you should do in the heat of the moment. Take some time for a little stress management -- a long walk, a primal scream or something along those lines. Once you've decompressed, another kinder, gentler solution will likely present itself.)
(Scorpio, October 23 to November 21: Admit it: You have a tendency to hold things in when you should let 'em out and let the chips fall where they may. Spilling the beans now is endorsed by the stars, and the feeling of relief you'll get is a reward in and of itself. As for what happens afterward, you'll need to relinquish your desire to control that too. Whatever will be, will be, and you'll handle it much more gracefully if you let it be.)
(Sagittarius, November 22 to December 21: Your trademark freewheeling approach may have landed you in a little bit of a deficit, and economizing isn't your specialty. Chances are, though, that someone close to you is an expert in this particular field, and chances are that they've been offering to help for quite some time. Don't feel sheepish -- just take them up on it. The first step is the hardest, and once you're with the program it'll be relatively painless.

(Cancer, June 22 to July 22: Your feelings for your loved ones (especially your special someone, if you're attached), and also your oldest and dearest friends, will be quite obvious to one and all now. They'll be written all over your face. Why bother trying not to express them? Be proud of what you're feeling and share it all easily with the ones you love. Sure, it may be sentimental or nostalgic, but who cares? Photograph Source, Flickr.)
(Leo, July 23 to August 23: As usual, your intuition will be absolutely impossible to deny. If a coworker asks for help, advice or even just a sympathetic ear, don't hesitate to offer it. You should probably expect it, in fact. If they don't sound like they're going to follow your counsel, don't be hurt, especially if they're a younger person. Remember how it is to be so young that you think you know it all? Be understanding, and let them live their own life. Photograph source, Flickr.)
(Virgo, August 24 to September 22: Whomever you see on a daily basis will suddenly seem much closer to you than just a casual acquaintance now. In fact, you'll be amazed at the amount of flirting you can fit into a casual conversation -- and how quickly it can happen. So when someone who's really not much more than a stranger starts getting close to you, enjoy it -- but if you're attached, don't let it get too far. Photograph source, Flickr.

(Aries, March 21 to April 19: You're the playful sort -- always have been, always will be. And for the most part, that fact is appreciated by your family, friends and sweetheart, even when you push the envelope past the point of no return. They let you slide because you're you and they love you. At the moment, however, it will be tougher to talk your way in or out of a particular situation. Think about that before you open your mouth.)
(Taurus, April 20 to May 20: It will be far easier for you to spend your time thinking of a long-distance loved one now than it will be to worry about yourself. Now that you know, be careful to keep your checkbook close and only buy what this far-off friend will appreciate, not something extravagant just to make a point. After all, the best gift of all is the fact that you thought enough of them to want to buy them something.)
(Gemini, May 21 to June 21: Your deepest feelings -- and the words you utter-- will be extraordinarily tender and well thought out today. In fact, no matter who you're talking with or what the subject might happen to be, the depth of your feelings will be quite evident in both the words you choose and the way you phrase your opinions. If you're asked to talk about your feelings, don't hesitate. Horoscope via us.glamour.com. Model Caroline Trentini; Photographer, Sebastian Kim. Source, Models.com.
