March 2: Your daily horoscope Upsets and upheavals are a part of life but the good days will outnumber the bad by at least ten to one over the coming year. Smile in the face of adversity and you will turn grey skies to blue and convert enemies into friends. There is no point trying to persuade someone who doesn't want to be persuaded. Let them believe what they want to believe and don't take it personally that they don't believe you. It's a free world. A new arrival on your social scene may seem a bit standoffish, but once you get to know them you will find you have much in common. According to the planets, you are destined to be friends. You have worked hard to reach your current position, so don't listen to those who say you've had it easy. It may look easy to them, but talking and doing are two different things. You're a doer, and you do it well. You are sure to get annoyed with someone today, and no doubt you have much to complain about, but don't overdo it. Others are trying their best, even though their best may be way below your standards. An important decision needs to be made, and it is essential you take your time and get it right. Others may try to browbeat you into seeing things their way, but you must stay true to your principles. No matter how bizarre the things you hear today sound, it will pay to listen closely. Who knows - what you hear may be true. If you are quick, you can take advantage of it while everyone else is still laughing. Some people can be seriously irritating, and unfortunately, you'll have to deal with a few of them today. Stay even-tempered and smile at the stupid things they say. Don't let lesser types ruin your day. Don't let others dictate terms or tell you what you can do. If you let them do it once, they will behave as if they own you, and sooner or later there will have to be a showdown. Avoid it if you can. Why are you considering giving up on something, even though you are so close to your goal? Whatever the reason, you should think again, because if you do admit defeat you'll hate yourself for it tomorrow. There is a lot of excitement in your life at the moment and today you will receive yet another invitation to have fun. Can it get any better than this? According to the planets, it can, so keep smiling and keep believing. If you are smart - and they don't come smarter than Aquarius - you will do whatever it takes to keep others happy this weekend. Go out of your way to do things for them. You'll be the winner in the long-term. If you get involved in some kind of debate over the next few days you must be careful not to say too much or go too far. No matter how strong your convictions you really don't need to antagonize people.
