Daily Horoscope: Leo

Hopes of parlaying one situation into another dissolve. Don't despair. A clean slate frees you from old baggage.

You may inadvertently be pressuring someone. This won't do you any good in the long run. Let this person come to you when s/he is ready.

You're an easy mark when it comes to flattery. There's a good chance you're being played so run things past a friend before you give away the store.

Home is where the heart is - even if it doesn't feel that way these days. Loved ones want to turn over a new leaf, but old foliage has to be cleared away first.

You and a loved one may not see eye-to-eye today but at least you know that his/her heart is in the right place.

Some inconvenient truths can't be explained away. Just tell it like it is and people will appreciate you for your honesty.

Heated Mars close to Mercury makes you antsy and ornery. Vigorous exercise is the remedy. It keeps you busy and too breathless to speak.

You think you know everything that there is to know about a rival, but you don't. You'll soon be revising your opinion of him/her.

You don't like it when people you're depending on to be there turn out to be no-shows. Perhaps you presume too much? It's time to refresh ties.

Maybe you passed the test. Or maybe you just didn't give up. In any case life is finally on an upswing. Now rise to the top!
