Have you been losing perspective when it comes to the most important people in your life? Sure, your boss deserves a lot of your respect -- but are you giving them too much? Your family deserves more of your energy right now, so put them first on your priority list. They're the ones who truly love you and have your best interests are heart. Try to take some time off, even if it's just an hour or two. Remind yourself about what is really important and make a necessary correction in your perspective.

If you're put in a situation that involves a clash of delicate egos today, focus on fairness -- not on politics. You have the strength of your ideals to rely on, so rely on them. Equality is too important to be sacrificed to get on someone's good side. If you smell a bad idea, say so. Playing favorites is not advised. Set a good example by being honest and objective. Impressionable people are watching.

Communication with your partner could become somewhat difficult right now, and it is not going to be immediately clear why. This is nothing you should worry too much about, though. As long as you are up front about at least trying to talk things out, then they will try to listen. That's about the best you can hope for. The good news is that sometimes, when you work so hard to talk things through with someone else, new ideas emerge.

If you're not in the mood to hit the town and whoop it up, then you're not going to be much fun doing it, are you? This is the logic you should use when you tell your friends that they should count you out of the latest big social scheme. You're feeling more introspective right now, and the idea of going out and making small talk with strangers is not striking you as the recipe for a good time. You need to do what you want, not what they want you to do.

Your enthusiasm about one aspect of your life is going to start bubbling over to another part of your life, today. Things could get a little messy, but you will love every minute of the fun chaos -- and so will the people who are closest to you. You'll have a smile plastered to your face all day long, and a great attitude about even the most boring-sounding things. Balancing your checkbook? Sounds like a blast! Cleaning out the garage? Couldn't think of a more fun thing to do!

Someone sweet from your past might pop back into your life again soon, either in person or over the Internet. Greet them with open arms or an enthusiastic reply. They were very important to you once, and they could be again. The two of you have a lot to catch up on, and their news might shock you in the most delightful way. You might have thought you had no more room in your life for more friends -- but this person isn't new, so integrate them back into the rotation.

Just like a bad apple can ruin the whole bunch, a bad person can ruin a whole team. So watch out for people who aren't on board with the group goals today. Staying focused on the greater good is not easy for some (selfish) people to do, so you will have to help them along. If you don't, their negative energy could really bring everyone down. Do not let them force everybody's momentum downhill. You're all better than that!

Your willpower is still going strong, so there is absolutely no reason to worry about succumbing to any temptations today. Be confident that you can continue to resist. All of the charm that this vice or that unhealthy person used to hold for you is fading fast -- perhaps not quite as fast as you would like, but it is definitely fading! Just keep abstaining, and soon you will lose your taste for it (or them) altogether. Get ready to begin a very empowered phase of living.

Try to fill your day with as much music and art as you possibly can -- both of these will soothe you and take you out of a crabby, blue mood in minutes. Plus, music and art will help you get back in touch with the more expressive parts of yourself. Listening to your favorite songs, visiting a museum or sculpture garden, or even just going online to learn more about your favorite artists will help you stay content and happy with where you are in life.

You will wake up with a lot of high energy coursing through your body this morning, which will go a long way toward fueling some high productivity! This is a great day to tackle that project you've been putting off for so long -- cleaning the garage, organizing your clutter, balancing your checkbook, cleaning out the refrigerator. The things that you were dreading will suddenly be enjoyable for you, so make the most of it. Dig in. You'll feel a great sense of accomplishment.

If you don't feel extremely self-confident right now, ask yourself what you are doing to test yourself. By facing a difficult challenge, you can prove to yourself how special you are. Even if you don't succeed, the act of facing a fear or trying to climb an especially tall mountain alone will go a long way toward making you see that you are capable of doing just about anything. In fact, you are capable of doing more than most! Dig down deep and wake up some of your slumbering ambitions.

Today, the powerful people will be cheering you on and singing your praises -- these new-found friends will help you go a very long way. It's up to you to go the entire distance, though. So don't take your eye of the ball. You are so close to what you want right now that resting on your laurels or taking a break from the action is simply a mistake. All that planning is finally starting to pay off.
