Today’s Oracle takes us to the Capricorn weekly for Jan. 12, 2007

People are showing you their true colors these days, which is about all you could hope for. You need to know where you stand with people, and your life goes better when you do. So, rather than complaining about the sorry state of the human race, just make sure your scorecard is up to date. Just as important is people knowing where they stand with you. State your expectations in clear, simple terms, and see how people respond. Leave out the emotional material; rather, assess people by their own emotional state and whether they show a shred of sensitivity to your situation. Some will; some will not; thus will you know who your real friends are.
Note, The Oracle is a random selection from the Eric Francis horoscope archives. Each day we publish one entry from among the 10,000 in our database. It’s a little slice of horoscope history — but chosen by our Oracle program, which always speaks to the present moment. New horoscopes are published each Friday plus twice a month in Planet Waves subscriber edition and Planet Waves Light.
