Capricorn, Aquarius, Pisces
{Daily horoscope for Thursday, July 23, 2009}
(Capricorn, December 22 to January 19: You'll witness an ugly exchange between two people you respect today. One of them feels more deserving of the praise the other one received. You know what it's like to feel overlooked, so you could be useful in helping heal the bruised ego in this situation. Make a subtle overture of support, but don't step right in and start telling people what's what. Offering your help is all you can do -- you can't make people accept it.)
(Aquarius, January 20 to February 18: If you spend too much time performing too many experiments, you aren't going to end up learning very much. Too many contradictory conclusions will be formed, and you'll be farther behind than when you started. Today, spend your time thoroughly exploring just one idea -- test your theory out, and then go over all the findings a few times. You'll enjoy the single-mindedness of such focused work and -- more importantly -- you'll quickly see what the next steps should be.)
(Pisces, February 19 to March 20: It might feel as though you're not quite living in reality today -- the universe is sending you lots of fantastic energy, which will definitely be a welcome (and very entertaining) notion. However, whenever your daily routine is put on its ear, you have to expect a period of mild discomfort. Luckily, by the middle of the day, you should be well into the groove of the whimsical nature of the day and at ease with the unusual (if not downright odd) activities going on all around you.

{Daily horoscope for Wednesday, July 22, 2009.}
(Libra, September 23 to October 22: You'll be so tuned in to the bigger picture today that the little details might slip right by. So today you need to work a little bit harder to catch the minutiae of whatever you're doing. For example, if you're going to get behind the wheel today, pay close attention to signs and directions -- if you're too busy grooving to the radio, you might miss an important detour or exit. And listen closely when your favorite person updates you on their life -- they're going to drop a bomb.)
(Scorpio, October 23 to November 21: In a work or school situation, if the folks around you are missing something that you think is obvious, speak up. Chances are, you will alert them to something that will improve the situation for everyone. Let their positive reactions boost your ego and give you the confidence to share your thoughts more often. You have a fresh way of thinking -- in certain situations you are downright innovative. Don't let the fear of their reaction hold you back.)
(Sagittarius, November 22 to December 21: Your luck continues to be very good today, and you are getting used to having things go your way. This feeling of confidence is a huge boon to your creativity, so make sure you find some time to work out all your brilliant ideas. Put your thoughts down on paper, record your latest song, finish knitting that scarf, or just whip up that fantastic cake recipe you've been saving for so long. Once you start exercising your creativity, your happiness will skyrocket even more. Horoscope via Marie Claire.com. Photograph source, Stylist Emily McGregor.

{Daily horoscope for Tuesday, July 21, 2009.}
(Cancer, June 22 to July 22: Someone's opportunistic tendencies have served you well in the past, but it's time that you stood on your own two feet and made the bold moves you've been letting other people make for so long. It's a good day to be assertive! This is the time when the rubber really meets the road, and you have to be consistent in what you think. If making the most of a given situation doesn't sit well with you, then you have to be willing to get along with a little bit less.)
(Leo, July 23 to August 23: When you enter into a new situation today, watch for people who aren't interested in making you feel at home. They could see you as the competition (even if you are not) and give you less than a naturally warm welcome. They're going through the motions just enough to seem polite, but not enough to feel genuine. Don't take this treatment personally. And do not bend over backward to ingratiate yourself to this person -- there is no sense in wasting energy trying to charm someone like this.)
(Virgo, August 24 to September 22: Today, you need to get it in your head that asking for help is not a sign of weakness. In fact, it's a sign that you are smart enough to know your limits -- and when you are about to go past them. So before things get to the panic phase, seek the assistance you know you need. Friends who have been there before are waiting for you to ask -- they have some great suggestions especially for your ears. You'll be glad you reached out. Horoscope via Marie.Claire.
