5R’s – Incredible to 1R – Awful

Aries – Try to finish the most important tasks that you have to accomplish early during the morning hours. Others will want your attention and participation in whatever they have going on later in the day. Join in if you’re available. You might be thinking and communicating in deeper terms during the next few weeks. It’s alright to consider profound matters at times, but try not to obsess on these issues. Bounce your thoughts and ideas off a trusted partner. Tonight: Let someone else decide. RRRRR

Taurus – You’ll likely wake up in the same playful mood that you’ve been in the last few days. However, that will soon change and you’ll notice all the work that you need to get accomplished. Just get busy and get it done and then you’ll feel a lot better about these issues. A partner could be quite talkative in the coming weeks. Some of the matters that s/he discusses could be important, so you might want to pay attention. You could find that your opportunities for partners increases this next year - whether they are romantic, business or otherwise. Tonight: Relax and unwind. RRRR

Gemini – You might want to sleep in late this morning. Or, perhaps you could have an extended breakfast. At any rate, your mood will change later today, and your good mood could lead to a bit of playfulness and creativity. Others will likely be pleasantly surprised by this change. You could be a bit indulgent today, but it’s unlikely to be a problem. If you are a twin looking for a new job - even if it’s because you don’t have a job now - this next year could bring you some good opportunities. Keep your eyes open. Tonight: Having a ball. RRRRR

Cancer – You may still have a message or two to deliver today. Take care of that early in the morning. Perhaps, you can handle it via email or a quick phone call. You’ll want to stay close to home for much of the day today. You’ll feel more comfortable in familiar surroundings and with family member and close friends. Perhaps, you can work from home if it’s necessary. If you can take the day off, even better. You tend to be a bit self-indulgent now, so it would not be a good day to go shopping if you’re on a budget. Tonight: Your home is your castle. RRRR

Leo – You might need to pay a bill or two first thing in the morning today. If not, make sure you’ve gotten your finances in order. Later in the day, you’ll have messages to communicate to others and errands to run. Start out by returning phone calls and answering email messages. You may need to check out your Facebook timeline as well. Let others know what you think about various issues of importance to you and also to them. This is a day when surprising incidents can occur. It seems that energy seems to burst out all over the place and in surprising forms. Tonight: Hanging out. RRRR

Virgo – Go for more of what you want the first thing in the morning today. If you wait long, it could be too late. While you’ve had a great time the last couple of days, you may need to slow down a bit today and review your money situation. Have you spent more than you had intended? If so, you can make a financial adjustment now. It’s possible that you may need to pay bills. Make sure the bank statement is balanced as well. Today is a good day to collect information that you can use to make an important decision at a later date. Tonight: Count your change. RRRR

Libra – You could be slow to get going this morning. However, once you do get up and going, you could be close to unstoppable. You’re in the spotlight for much of the day as the Moon slides into your sign by mid morning. It’s time to go for what you want. The influences support your efforts today, and your chances of success are improved significantly. The evening hours are particularly pleasant, and possibly romantic. You’ll be able to talk to people about matters that are important to you. And, your detachment and objectivity will help you to make good decisions. Tonight: All smiles. RRRRR

Scorpio – Reach out to a trusted friend first thing in the morning today. You’ll have a valuable discussion and the warm feelings shared between the two of you will be helpful. Later in the day, you may want to maintain a low profile. It could be that you’re not up to snuff, or perhaps the timing is just not right for pushing your personal projects and goals. That will change soon and in a big way as expansive Jupiter has entered your sign. This could turn out to be a year that you remember quite fondly indeed. Tonight: Not to be found. RRR

Sagittarius – Put the finishing touches on a work project, entertainment event, or a situation that you’ve been dealing with recently. Later in the day, group endeavors are favored for you. If you need to hold a meeting about something important or critical to your success, this is a good day to do so. You’ll want to save some time to spend with good friends as well. A get together with friends early in the evening would be quite pleasant. You tend to be quite perceptive of the needs of your neighbors and friends now, and you’re willing to help if you can. Tonight: Find your friends. RRRRR

Capricorn – You could be having some very pleasant dreams this morning, so why not stay in bed and sleep in late today. You’ll have your share of responsibilities to handle the remainder of the day. You’ll need to take charge of a work project, entertainment event, or a situation that must be handled (and, you’re the one to handle it). Others may be looking to you for direction. Your critical faculties are sharp now, however your words might come off as bit more negative than you mean. Tonight: A force to be reckoned with. RRRR

Aquarius – The early morning hours could be quite pleasant if you’re spending them with someone you deem special. Or, it could be that you need to handle a financial issue first thing in the morning. However, you’ll be looking for adventure later in the day. If you haven’t taken a vacation in a while, this would be a great time to head out to someplace new and different. You’d have fun and get a chance to learn new things. At any rate, you’re likely to be restless and need new air. On another level, however, you feel at peace with the world and could be in a benevolent mood toward your friends. Tonight: Let your mind wander. RRRRR

Pisces -- Others seek you out during the early morning hours today. Defer if you can. Later in the day, you’ll likely want to spend some quality time with someone very important in your life. If you’re attached, that could be your sweetie. If you’re single, this is a great time to get to know someone attractive, glamorous, and interesting. The early evening hours look particularly pleasant and possibly romantic.You can think and express yourself with great subtlety now. However, you might want to subject some of your more imaginative ideas to the test of time. Tonight: Togetherness works. RRRR
