Gemini | May 20 – June 20
There may be power struggles brewing beneath the surface that become evident in your interactions, Gemini. Your first reaction may be to get upset and make your viewpoint even more rigid.

Cancer | June 21 – July 21

Virgo | August 22 – September 21
Don’t underestimate people’s sensitivity to certain situations, Virgo. You may work with a detachment that’s healthy on a day like this.

These people are some of your most valuable resources. Treat them with respect.
Libra | September 22 – October 22
Talking things over with friends is likely to be a nourishing exercise for you, Libra. Instead of trying to work things out in your head, say them aloud and ask others for their perspectives.

Scorpio | October 23 – November 21
Engage in lively activities with friends who keep you abreast of the latest in culture, Scorpio. See a movie, go to a bookstore, or visit a museum. This should be a fun time in which you can bounce ideas around and explore your thoughts and feelings. Be careful that your conversation doesn’t lapse into gossip. Don’t let everyone else’s affairs suddenly become more important than yours.
Sagittarius | November 22 – December 20
You may think few people understand you, Sagittarius. Even if you try to explain your thought process and where you are emotionally, it still seems like others are more concerned with themselves. Only you can really understand how you feel. Be your own cheerleader. It isn’t necessary for everyone to understand everything about you. An air of mystery is part of what makes you intriguing.
Capricorn | December 21 – January 18
Your mood is likely to be malleable, Capricorn, depending on the people you’re with and situation you’re in. One minute you may be high as a kite and the next you’re down in the dumps.

Aquarius | January 19 – February 17
Try not to spend too much time on one issue today, Aquarius. It’s possible that you’ll get so wrapped up in it that that you’ll find it hard to deal with anything else. Take care of one issue the best you can and move to the next without dwelling on the first. Your focus is strong, and you can tackle many issues efficiently.
Pisces | February 18 – March 19
Things should be going well for you, Pisces. Stay on track and you’ll have a clear runway. If you deviate from where you need to be, you might get a harsh reminder from something or someone. There are powerful forces at work. You’ll benefit if you work with instead of against them. Maintain your focus on the truth and those aspects that align with your soul.
