This year, you often

say one thing,

yet go off and do

something different.

Others might comment on

this behavior. If single, giving

off mixed messages could

complicate a budding tie.

People could back off because

of this. You will need to relate

to someone who understands

both voices. If attached, the

two of you agree to disagree,

but this is often irrelevant, as

you have such a hoot together.

Honor your differences and

love the fun times the two of

you experience. Gemini knows

how to get your attention.

ARIES

(MARCH 21-APRIL 19).

No matter what the situation,

you will feel unusually tense.

You might even develop an

attitude, as you could feel that

someone is nixing your ideas

randomly.

TAURUS

(APRIL 20-MAY 20).

Plans could rapidly change as

people’s emotions swing from

one mood to another. Your

response could be equally

unpredictable. Try to relax

and go with the flow. Others’

vacillation is not directed

toward you.

GEMINI

(MAY 21-JUNE 20).

You could become more

uptight and fussier than you

have been in a while. You

might blame this change of

mood on this or that, but the

truth is simply that you feel

differently at the moment. Do

not hesitate to go for what you

want.

CANCER

(JUNE 21-JULY 22).

Emotions surface once

more. You feel as if there is

something you are missing.

You could also be picking up

on what someone who is close

to you is feeling. To clear it

out, you might need to make

several calls.

LEO

(JULY 23-AUG. 22).

You need to move a project

forward and no longer get

stuck in others’ reservations

and thoughts. Confusion

surrounds a personal matter,

but it will clear up in a day

or so.

VIRGO

(AUG. 23-SEPT. 22).

You suddenly feel energized. If

a boss or someone you work

with notices your high energy,

you could have a lot of last-

minute work dropped on you.

You could say no! Clear it out

as quickly as you can.

LIBRA

(SEPT. 23-OCT. 22).

Reach out for the unimagined.

What appears as a nice but

slightly impossible dream

could actually become a

reality. Rather than nix it, see

how you can manifest this

thought. Curb your tendency to

go overboard.

SCORPIO

(OCT. 23-NOV. 21).

You cannot help but zero in on

what is going on with another

person. Often, others don’t

realize how tuned in you are.

You do not let them know

when you can see they are

avoiding telling you the whole

story!

SAGITTARIUS

(NOV. 22-DEC. 21).

You could feel tense. A

comrade at work makes it

clear they need time with you.

Make it your pleasure. You will

get to know this person better.

You experience an odd mix of

enjoyment and worry.

CAPRICORN

(DEC. 22-JAN. 19).

Stay anchored, if possible.

Eye a situation from the

perspective of having known

this person for a while. If

someone seems too willing

to go along with one of your

ideas, find out why.

AQUARIUS

(JAN. 20-FEB. 18).

You can no longer hold

yourself back. One-on-one

relating is highlighted. You

make the impossible possible

by deciding that nothing is

impossible. Your sense of

humor and playfulness distract

some people, but others jump

right in.

PISCES

(FEB. 19-MARCH 20).

You might be more tangled up

in a personal situation than

you would like. Understand

where another person is

coming from. You might

consider that this person

seldom seems needy. What is

happening is unique.
