Gemini (May 21-June 20) Your originalit­y mixed with ingenuity will prove to be today’s problem-solver. You might choose to keep many of your judgments to yourself, as they will not help move a situation forward. Your smile and wit make the impossible nearly possible. Tonight: Be a wild thing.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) You seem to be coming from an anchored position. Others see where you are coming from and naturally will want to delegate more responsibi­lity to you.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Intuitivel­y you know it is best to maintain a low profile. The people you care about will seek you out anyway. You’ll want to avoid some strong headwinds from an associate who must have it his or her way. Let it go for now. Tonight: Reach out to a friend at a distance.
