Aries (March 21 - April 19) If you can't exactly control the plans, at least you can daydream about them. Whatever else the immediate future holds, it definitely involves time with both your humans and your packmates. Hold the image in your mind's eye.
Taurus (April 20 - May 20) Some dogs are just begging for power struggles. Everything they do is intended to get a rise out of you. Don't engage. Whether it's raised fur, growling, or simply a stare down, rise above it instead.
Gemini (May 21 - June 21) There's never a good time for deep thought, but sometimes it just happens. You may wake up from your nap a new dog, with an entirely different point of view. Just what happened between crawling into your basket and leaping out is a mystery.
Cancer (June 22 - July 22) You've mastered being good on the leash, no pun intended. Now it's time to learn other tricks. Being flexible goes a long way toward earning you both the biscuits and the praise you live for.
Leo (July 23 - August 22) Don't hang onto your human for dear life. For one thing, you should know by now they'll be back. And for another, if you take a deep breath, you'll find adapting to the workaday world is easier than you think. Relax.
Virgo (August 23 - September 22) You would love a break in your routine. Unfortunately, that's not on the schedule yet. Work on building up your anticipation and excitement. If that doesn't work, try doing things a bit differently, a day early.
Libra (September 23 - October 22) Having a good day seems to take more and more creativity as the week progresses. You're almost out of ideas. But luckily for you and your owner, you don't have much longer to wait.
Scorpio (October 23 - November 21) You're having the usual minor problems at home but nothing radical. The mailman, the cat, the neighbors -- it's all just the same old, same old. But you'll bring a few unexpected outbursts to the mix, just for fun. Enjoy.
Sagittarius (November 22 - December 21) You love nothing more than barking at dogs out the window. What they don't know is that you would love to meet them. You'll have to come up with a new way of expressing your desire to connect.
Capricorn (December 22 - January 19) It won't be long now. Just knowing that makes time fly and mischievousness unnecessary. Spend the day with visions of the weekend dancing in your head.
Aquarius (January 20 - February 18) Your energy has reached its highest level of the week right about now. Your excitement can no longer be contained. If your human hasn't factored in a long, pre-weekend greeting, they'd better be okay with being caught unprepared.
Pisces (February 19 - March 20) Thoughts of the weekend are crowding out your vision of what's around you today. Don't get too excited. You still have work to do and four more days to go. The mail and your naps are just for starters.
