Today's horoscope:

All signs

You will have a small victory today. You will remember something at the last minute, you will figure something out that has been eating at the back of your brain for days, you will call a shot during some sporting event you're watching on TV, you will get the puzzle on Wheel Of Fortune before anyone else. Most of the time no one will notice because the small victory will take place when you're alone, or inside your own head, and if you tried to explain it to someone else they'll probably never understand. That's okay. It doesn't diminish your moment. It's yours and yours alone, so enjoy it, and file it away so if you have a bad run you can remember that time you dropped a glass but caught it before it hit the ground and broke or you avoided that pothole and smile and realize that you have some wins mixed in with the losses.

All signs:

You will hear a dumb song or see a silly TV show or movie that makes you happy and you will think of it as a guilty pleasure. Fuck that. If it brings you pleasure, screw the guilt. It's a tiny thing, but if you think about it, there are probably other things in your life that make you happy that come along with a bit of guilt or self loathing. As long as it doesn't hurt you or anyone else, ditch the negative and enjoy that shit. Life is full of enough garbage that screws your day up, don't look for more. You're free and entitled to enjoy shit guilt free, so do it and don't look back. And don't let other people shit on your parade with their petty garbage and comments. Just smile and turn up that Spin Doctor's song.

All signs

At several points today you will have a chance to look up from whatever you're doing and just marvel at all the tiny wonders and overwhelming beauty in the world. It can be a big open sky made up of colors you never noticed before, it can be something a child does or say that only they can do, or your pet dog, or a bird or a flower or a duck. It can be a song that floods your brain with emotions, or just looking at the person you love and wondering how the hell you ever got that lucky. It can be grassy fields or a forest full of trees, or a river rolling past, or the ocean, stretching across the entire horizon. It can be a building, or a painting, or a photograph, or something else mankind has achieved, because even though humans can ruin a lot of things, they can also create on a level with any god you can think of. The world and the people in it are capable of amazing, wonderful things, and they are happening at every second of every day all around if you just take a moment to look.

One last thing:

The stars sometimes seem to predict bad news more than good, but that doesn't mean that there aren't good things out there everywhere. The stars want you to know that. They love you, for after all, you are their children, and they have given their lives to make you and everything that ever was or ever will be. Yes, that means they made the stuff that hurts sometimes, but they always give you something to make up for it if you want it bad enough. If you don't think so, just go outside on a clear night and look up at them, always there, always watching, always shining their light down on you from from an eternity away. Some of them are long gone, burned out or gone supernova millions of years ago, and you're looking at ghosts. Still they send their light to you now so you know they love you and want you to be happy and go on.

Virgo:

The stars have nothing specific planned for you. Go get yourself some ice cream and enjoy the lull.
