Love and the stars

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

One-on-one relating seems to take up a good part of your time. You might have to help calm down someone with whom you are financially involved. Try as you may, you might not be able to get this person to act in a more practical manner. Tonight: Time is your best friend.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
