Taurus (April 20-May 20): You can’t preach to the choir. You may be surrounded by people who know how to handle business matters adroitly or those who possess practical street smarts. Focus on charming them into becoming your friends.
Gemini (May 21-June 20): You can accomplish a great deal without assistance from others. You may be hypercritical of yourself and think that you aren’t up to social encounters. Other people, however, think you hold yourself to very high standards.

Next December, opportunity may come knocking, but you will need the wise advice of an older companion to guide you past a mirage that is merely wishful thinking on your part.
