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.

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

Aries: Balancing our lives can become a challenge. This is a good time to think about balance where your health is concerned. Is there balance in what you feed your body? Do you expose your system to harmful substances, or are you depriving it of its vital rest? Think along these lines when you plan your days: are you amply providing for your body, thinking about the years you have ahead on this earth? This can be a serious task, but remember it can also be fun. Exercising with a friend is good for the spirit!

Taurus: You used to love physical activity - the more intense the better. What has become of this urge? Picture a big pot filled with soup - the biggest pot you can imagine. Stirring that pot, so that soup from the very bottom mixes with the soup on top, is what exercise does for you. A good balance between aerobic and anaerobic exercise is ideal. This process is not only satisfying physically, but is also necessary for a healthy mind. With so much energy brewing inside of you, regular physical release keeps your mental processes in check. Think about it.

Gemini: Today's energies ignite your spirit. You have the feeling that you can do anything you set your mind to, and this is true! If you could "bottle" all that energy, wouldn't it be great? In fact, regular exercise does take that energy directly into your bloodstream, which in turn puts it into your strong muscles. Focus your positive energy on your body and you will see the glowing results. Remember to always drink water after you exercise, to replenish your body's vital fluids.

Cancer: Do you like going on a Stairmaster when you work out! The motion of the Stairmaster mimics the climbing motion that we miss in our lives when using elevators, escalators and other such devices. During your fitness activities, try to visualize what you are getting out of the exercise both physically and mentally. The time you spend working on your body is precious to the development of your self-esteem. Give yourself a double workout by releasing and strengthening within your mind and heart as well.

Leo: Today's transit encourages you to shower those you love with affection. This is something you may do inwardly all the time, but actually people need physical and verbal appreciation more than you sometimes realize. Use this energy to give yourself the best of everything, too. Have a breakfast with fresh fruit and whole grains, keep the fresh fruits and vegetables coming all day, and have a little protein with one meal. Oh, and, water, water, water! Your energy will glow with this kind of treatment.

Virgo: You love to explore new ideas, your very own adventures of the mind, and you are greatly assisted by today's astral energy. Your idealistic nature tempts you to focus on utopic dreams. You feel this energy as the essence of "possibility," and it will be a period of emotional optimism for you. Whatever you have doubted to be possible in your health or dietary regimen, now is the time to give it a try. It doesn't have to be a marathon. Start small, and you can make your dreams a reality!

Libra: Speaking your truth is the beauty of life and relationships, otherwise all beauty is hollow, and life becomes merely a charade. If you feel the tug of certain buried truths, it is wise to welcome them forth with the dedication to making yourself whole. If you feel you need more sleep in order to gear up for the changes you sense afoot, have the courage to say no to an evening out, and get to bed as early as you see fit. No excuses necessary!

Scorpio: Today's energy has a great personal impact. The deeper you go to find your truth, the brighter you will shine. There is a tendency for you to be somewhat afraid of risk, to appear selfish and stubborn to others because of a fear of the unknown. Give yourself the permission to explore yourself without fear. Treat yourself to a deep tissue massage - the journey of relaxation and free association could be a gentle way to unlock what's inside, just waiting to get out and enrich your life.

Sagittarius: You are impressionable and easily stimulated. With today's planetary energy, you are apt to succumb to sensual impulses that aren't always in your best interests: staying up late eating ice cream is one way to conjure up what I'm talking about! The cosmic climate adds to the dreamy lack of boundaries that is at once seductive and also trouble inducing. Enjoy yourself, but don't give up on your commitments - if you can still make it to the gym three times a week you're not a total goner!

Capricorn: The tendency to nurture others can be a liability for you. Unless you are a paid professional during office hours, taking care of yourself first is your foremost responsibility. Even parents need to focus on themselves if they are going to be proper role models for their children. If you need someone to nurture, look in the mirror! You are a wonderful listener: ask your reflection what it needs, and hop to it! It may take a little practice, but you can do it.

Aquarius: Today's atmosphere helps you express your emotional side. With so much attention being paid to your energetic personality, it can sometimes be a challenge to make yourself vulnerable and really know what you are feeling. Movement that challenges you to be physically vulnerable is a recommended practice for emotional release. Yoga, of course, and stretching out the chest cavity in particular. Applying a hot water bottle to your chest at night is another way to bring gentle attention to your emotional core.

Pisces: Today, give yourself more than enough time to do the most mundane things. Being rushed by others is also not something you will react well to. One of the best ways to escape the expectations of others is to set your limits and stick to them like crazy. Give yourself an extra hour at the gym, try some new form of a workout in addition to your regular routine. I do not mean that you should push yourself too far, but you have the extra energy today, and it's best that you use it for your own purposes, not someone else's.
