{Daily horoscope for Wednesday, October 7, 2009}
(Libra, September 23 to October 23: Your communication will be very rewarding and effective today -- all of your phone conversations, text messages, and emails will be full of good wishes and a new level of cooperation. People are more interested in what you have to say right now, and they are ready to help you bring your ideas to fruition. Do not let this day go by without moving forward with at least one project or goal. If you've been waiting to ask someone out, this is the day to do it!)
(Scorpio, October 24 to November 21: Stepping outside of your comfort zone is by definition uncomfortable. But isn't it usually incredibly rewarding, too? You're in a strong phase of risk-taking and you are a brave person, so this combination means that right now you are in a prime position to make a huge leap in your life. Whether it's changing your job, moving to a new city, or starting a new relationship, you are ready to explore living your life in a new way. Talk to those who have done it before and get some tips.)
(Sagittarius, November 24 to December 21: Everyone is singing your praises right now, and boy it's a sweet sound! This extra level of attention you're receiving might not last too long, so you had better take advantage of it while you can. Gobble up the limelight, and be sure to savor all the adulation you're getting. You know you rock, and it's awfully nice to have someone else notice it too! It's a great day for a celebration, so call up one of your fun friends and do something sweet. Horoscope source, Marie Claire.com.

{Daily horoscope for Tuesday, October 6, 2009}
(Cancer, June 24 to July 22: Help yourself today by helping others! Not only will the gratitude you receive from the people you aid lift your spirits, but it will inspire you to do bigger and even better things for the world at large! Now is the right time to move forward with big plans. People who have power will be receptive to your ideas, and they will be willing to give you the resources and encouragement you need. Consider a long-term volunteer opportunity: It might finally be time to take that step.)
(Leo, July 23 to August 23: People will be projecting their own issues onto you, today -- so don't listen to those 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 get caught up in feeding the egos of other people.)
(Virgo, August 24 to September 22: As exciting or tantalizing as 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. Horoscope via Marie Claire.com.

{Daily horoscope for Monday, October 5, 2009}
(Aries, March 21 to April 20: Today is all about the communities you live and work in. Your place in the world will be something you'll be questioning today, and that is totally normal and wonderfully healthy. Do you take the same role in every situation? Are you always the leader, always the follower, or do you take turns in this role? These are the questions you should address; you need to make sure you're being true to yourself and not compromising for the sake of popularity or politics.)
(Taurus, April 21 to May 21: Today you will be the beacon that all others follow. Your leadership potential has slowly (but surely) been maturing, and now you will be able to step confidently into the role as leader. This is a new beginning -- something you can really sink your teeth into. So go ahead and get excited! Your responsibilities might not rival those of world leaders, but they will be important to you -- and that is all that matters. It is okay to admit you don't know it all.)
(Gemini, May 22 to June 23: Quiet moments throughout this day will give you many opportunities to think about issues surrounding your immediate future. If you can, take a more passive role today -- you might not be in the right frame of mind to make tough leadership decisions. Compromise, not dogma, is what will feel most comfortable. Everything is a shade of grey to you now, and that's causing a small amount of confusion in your personal life. Direct your thoughts to this confusion today. Horoscope via Marie Claire.com.

(I am so looking forward to the weekend... the week has been grueling and emotional with most of my energy spent fighting off a flu... On a more positive note, the weekend will bring a candle lit dinner, a mother-daughter day filled with pedicures and shopping for an upcoming birthday and lastly, special time spent with my two most favourite men in the world"! I hope you have a wonderful, wonderful weekend. Would love to hear about your plans? Photograph source, Sugar Pop Tarts.)
