Daily Horoscope

Today's horoscope says:

Are you being too idealistic about a new person in your life?
If there's someone in your social group everyone dislikes but you, then maybe you should give this person another, more objective review.
Your tendency to see the good side in people is charming and generous, but it's not always useful for keeping yourself protected against those who might not be healthy for your life goals.
Do not accept negative habits.

That I do all ready.
