What your zodiac sign says about your health today

Health is wealth they say. You have to get a heads up on your general well-being.

The daily readings will advise you on how to look good and maintain your personal health.

Here is what horoscope.com has to say about your health today.

Aries: There isn't much that you can't incorporate into your schedule when you are focused on the task. You may not want to be like Rocky and drink raw eggs in the morning before running up the steps of the Philadelphia Art Museum, but you can arrange to get up an hour early and go for a jog before you get to work. This kind of effort will help you manage the influences of the planetary alignments at this time.

Taurus: You have great character and want to make the most of a bad experience - once you are far enough away from it! Nothing will help you get through hard times more than regular exercise that involves deep breathing. It sorts out the body and mind by generating the flow of freshly oxygenated blood and improving your circulation. Yoga is probably something you do already. Try to find the best time of day to practise for you and make it a healthy habit.

Gemini: With the influence from today's planetary alignment, things could get a little hard to manage. Whether positive or negative, there is a lot of energy in your midst right now and you need to stay active to keep things manageable! Any time you can walk instead of ride in a car or bus - do it. When making choices about what you eat, always choose for the benefit of your body - your taste buds won't mind! Eat light, nutritious foods.

Cancer: You sometimes deal with emotional turmoil by keeping it very much under wraps, and not really letting others see what you are feeling. It's like you are afraid things will only get worse if you let other people know how you really are right now. This approach stems from your survival instinct, and can sometimes cause you unnecessary suffering. To circumvent this tendency, go for a workout when you are feeling blue. If you still feel blue afterwards, go ahead and spill your guts to a friend.

Leo: The position of the heavenly bodies supports you with energy to really act on behalf of others. You enjoy the feeling of helping other people succeed against the odds. However, you must also pay attention to yourself, otherwise you will quickly grow resentful of what others have that you lack. This is called affliction. To avoid being afflicted, make your diet and exercise the priority no matter what. When you take care of yourself physically you notice all your other needs more readily.

Virgo: The planetary alignment today makes you feel ever ready to take on the next phase of your personal development. Spiritually, emotionally, physically - whatever development you are focused on right now, today's aspect will help you take the lead. Yoga is a practice that combines all of those areas into one - practised on a daily basis, yoga can help you make the most of this transit. You have about ten days left - don't miss out! Prepare yourself with water intake before you practice.

Libra: You will probably be frustrated by all the "misfiring" that goes on due to the celestial atmosphere prevailing today. This is a perfect opportunity to learn about yourself and how you respond to frustration. One thing to notice is how the food you eat supports you or sabotages you under circumstances of frustration. Try to reduce your sugar intake and increase your intake of raw fruits and vegetables. Meanwhile, drink plenty of water. With a healthy diet, what once frustrated you could become merely amusing.

Scorpio: There is a planetary configuration now that might force you to look at your whole approach to physical health and say "Yuck!" or "C'mon, let's step it up!" Be appreciative of the insights you have when you feel upset with things - there is much to be said for starting over with a new approach. One small step that is important for you to take, is a serious look at posture especially when you are at your desk. This can help you to avoid back and shoulder pain.

Sagittarius: There is a lot to be said for getting some exercise in before you get to work in the morning. Communication difficulties tend to fly by the wayside for those who jog before work, get to the gym when it opens, or even just walk to work. Take your body seriously and you will notice the effects in your personal and professional life. With today's cosmic climate it's a good time to negotiate these kinds of commitments with yourself.

Capricorn: With today's planetary energies, you are feeling at the center of a lot of attention, and this adds a sense of an emotional burden. Stay tuned to your emotions even when you don't feel so great - it only makes it worse if you try to escape negative feelings. Exercise is a great way to keep the heaviness at bay - and certain kinds of exercise help more than others when times are tough. Follow your intuition, but weight-lifting, stretching and quick sprints are recommended.

Aquarius: You can be extremely conscientious regarding your diet when you put your mind to it. Think of the lion out in the wild. Only the freshest "kill" will do for a lion and her cubs. When it comes to feeding her little ones she lets nothing stand in her way. Try using this feline mentality when you visit your local organic grocer. Go up to the clerks and ask which vegetables are freshest, and treat yourself to the best the land has to offer.

Pisces: Making yourself truly comfortable in your body takes a lot of work. Have you ever seen people who look really physically fit, but still something makes them look awkward in their skin? There is more to being "in shape" than meets the eye. It's a whole process that starts with what you eat and how you eat it. (Do you eat on the fly? That doesn't help!) Get yourself eating what and how you would like to eat this week - the rest will follow.
