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 is a lot of stress in the air, and it is the wise person who takes it upon himself to unwind and get back to reality after a lot of social activity. After a party, you need to find the sound of your own voice again. Remember? It's the voice that instructs you gently through your health practices: eat this, don't eat that, wake up now to get to the gym before work so that you don't get into personal conflicts at work.

Taurus: With today's planetary aspect, you will probably begin remembering portions of times past that have stayed in the background for some time. It can be a sentimental time, and you may feel a heavy sense of nostalgia. Let this sort of energy come out through your body. Yoga is a wonderful way to excise old, pent up energy and bring in fresh new energy to help cleanse your spirit. It is a healthy process.

Gemini: You may be feeling pretty worked up right now! The planetary movement concerning your sign this month is a hefty combination of intense energies! This makes you high-strung and on the alert at all times. Water is literally the best solution: drink plenty of water, a minimum of 8 glasses per day! Your liver will thank you for it, and you will be more emotionally balanced. Don't let yourself burn out!

Cancer: Jasmine oil should be on your shopping list this month. Jasmine is spiritually healing and is associated with the Moon in herbal lore. Put a few drops in your bath or in your favourite (unscented) body lotion. Often thought to attract love, the scent also induces a deep, relaxing sleep that can cure symptoms of stress. Historically, Jasmine was used by midwives to help women relax their bodies during childbirth. A drop or two on your pillow will give you a pleasant night's rest.

Leo: The power to nurture others is inherent in your being. You have something to offer that all creatures need. But be aware that you yourself need to centre regularly, and find ways to recharge. In order to protect yourself from unforeseen difficulties, be prudent regarding your diet. Eat the freshest foods possible and do not leave yourself open to illness or injury. It is in your nature to think ahead, so use this gift for yourself.

Virgo: You can benefit tremendously from a physical group activity such as a team that trains together for an athletic event. The group spirit is uplifting for your nature, which has a tendency to be introverted when left alone. And, having a goal can help shape your perspective about life, which can otherwise become obtuse and slightly pessimistic if you aren't careful. Enjoy yourself with friends who are physically active and see what energy comes of it.

Libra: With so much physical energy at your disposal, it's a wonder that you are not a professional athlete or dancer! You must have realised by now that you are one vital individual. Today you might seriously consider the ramifications of this and decide it's time to implement some health habits into your life that will bring that energy to a constructive level. Regular exercise and a balanced diet may not be enough! Meditation could do you good, or maybe the martial arts?

Scorpio: Wanting something has usually led you to getting it, don't you find? You have a tenacious grasp on the earthly realm, and when it comes to goal-setting you are among the most impressive. When it comes to your body, your approach may need to be a little more flexible. Although you tend to strive for perfection, remember that the human condition is very fluctuating, and you need to make room for the days you just won't be able to live up to your stringent expectations. Take it easy on yourself.

Sagittarius: You always like to see both sides of an issue, and like to get along with the group. In other words, you usually don't come across as stubborn. However, there is a tendency to go from one idea to the next too quickly, so that you might not even know your own true opinion! Involve yourself in things that take time to complete. Cooking is a good place to start. Make something a little complicated but delicious, and enjoy the results!

Capricorn: Today it becomes apparent just how dedicated you are to home and family. Family is a cornerstone in your life, or will be at some point. The most critical issue concerning families is health. Whether you are parent or child, your health is bound to mean the world to someone else. Why not have a handle on how to take care of yourself to the best of your abilities. Know your limits, and be active and creative about your health. It will do you and your family much good.

Aquarius: Making yourself beautiful for a party may have brought up some health issues. Are you ready to begin taking your diet more seriously? What you put in your mouth goes a long way toward shaping your life. Eventually, as you recently noticed, it has an effect on how you see yourself (in the mirror). Why not ask yourself up front how you want to see yourself? Examine your eating habits (when you are not hungry) and ask yourself: who do I want to be?

Pisces: The energy emanating from the planets today presents a mental challenge. Emotions and power are growling at one another; maybe they're even engaged in a real fight! The mental challenge is in stepping back and assess the situation. How much is at stake? Will it eventually blow over? Is it about winning and losing? Most of all, the challenge will be to continue to respect your personal health regimen in the face of this distraction. It is neither fair nor prudent to neglect your body and all the energy contained therein.
