The moods and mannerisms of the people with whom you share your environment will likely be more apparent to you than usual today. You may be quite attentive to the verbal and nonverbal cues projected by relatives, friends, and peers, so your perception of the world as a whole may change quite a bit over time. As you notice others becoming angry, despondent, happy, or nervous today, your awareness will likely provide you with clues into the circumstances these individuals are facing. You can then prepare to cope with those that will likely prove to have a direct or indirect impact on your own experiences.

By gauging the moods of the people around us, we can accurately assess the effect that the circumstances unfolding around us will have on our lives. Sensing others' emotions can be as simple as paying careful attention to their actions and reactions because our thoughtful awareness provides us with a means to tap into the collective consciousness. The more attuned we are to the nuances of our surroundings as we understand them through the lens of our peers, the better equipped we are to navigate life's rigors. This is not to say that we should rely entirely on others when cultivating awareness within ourselves. Rather, the response others have to a situation or challenge can provide us with a context in which to formulate informed opinions. Your attentiveness to the feelings of the individuals with whom you share your environment will give you a unique insight into the world around you today.
