Daily Horoscope: Virgo

Just because you don't express yourself in broad, flamboyant strokes, doesn't mean you're inhibited. You're just subtle.

Everyone's your best buddy when things are looking up, so don't be surprised to find it's the ones you thought you outgrew who stand by you now.

A ton of work gets dumped on you thanks to Mars's retrograde. Buck up and carry the load. You'll be rewarded for going the distance when Mars changes direction again in Aug.

It's time for an address book purge. Aggressive pruning promotes growth in contacts and relationships worth keeping.

Developments at work won't be to your liking, but they could have been worse. You'll have to live with that pay freeze, "internship", or delayed promotion a while longer.

You wish things could return to the way they were but that situation was living on borrowed time. Own your here and now.

Get contingency plans in order. Hopefully you won't need them, but you'll want them at your fingertips for just in case.

Feelings are near the surface with the first quarter Moon in the last degree of Virgo. Count to ten before responding to anyone. Chances are you're overreacting.

There's more to playing go-between than parroting what people say. You've had a chance to size up their personalities and can now speak your mind.

You don't wound so easily anymore. That's not a cynical thing; it's an emotionally healthy thing.
