HORO S COPE

WEDNESDAY, JUNE 13, 2018 New Moon and New Venus, Too

The Gemini new moon and a new position for Venus favor the dance of social discourse, through breezy conversation or through actual dancing, which has been a part of human expression since the tribal beginnings of human evolution. In fact, movement might allow you to work something out that can’t be worked out in other ways.

ARIES (March 21-April 19).

You’ll be caught in the shuffle of shifting priorities and redistributed responsibility. Indecision at higher levels will influence your destiny. Even so, the main determinations of the day will be yours to make.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).

Emotions are invitations to greater strength and power. Every time you accept and stick with an emotion through its lifespan (which can last months or minutes), you increase your capacity to manage your feelings.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).

What’s left undone is left out of fear. There’s no pleasant way to face it, but if you don’t face it eventually, the result will be most unpleasant indeed. Come on. It won’t be that bad. Just dive in and get it done.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).

History has lessons it can only teach to the willing. The tendency is to say, “Well that was then; this is now.” But the correlation will be rather obvious to the awake people of this class. It always repeats! Who’s ready?

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22).

You may engage in frivolous pursuits, but solving sartorial problems of the day isn’t among them. Clothing choice matters. It requires thought and discernment. Dress for style and respect, not attention.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).

You speak kindly of yourself and those around you; say thank you and return favors; and make time for those who need a friend. These quality habits will be their own reward, and yet other rewards spring forth, too.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).

There are those who can’t help but think in terms of finding a scapegoat. To own up to their own faults would cause unbearable shame. They fear being cut off for their mistakes. But mistakes are lessons, not death sentences.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

The most ingenious comment in the world repeated over and over in an annoying tone will start to sound like idiocy. Even the brightest insights come across as wrongheaded to those predisposed to think of them as such.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).

The new rule of thumb for those seeking to reach their maximum attractiveness quotient is to cultivate at least three hobbies that do not involve a screen. Energy spent in this direction will quickly repay you.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).

Teenagers aren’t the only ones prone to thinking that a problem is the worst thing ever in one moment and then in the next moment finding that it’s not even worth thinking about. This is a human thing. Bear with it.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).

It is said that essence and life cannot be seen, but today you feel like you can see it -- and hear it and dance to it. Furthermore, there are certain people and places that occur to you like springs, gushing pure vitality.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).

Thanks to internet search engines it’s easier to know what millions of people around the world think about a subject than it is to ask your own mom. But ask your own mom (or maternal influence) anyway.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (June 13).

An encouraging group of friends will help you make a personal goal. The time you devote to work will ramp up over the next 10 weeks. Professional gains in 2019 will reflect a jump in experience level. You’ll get a bonus. Stash it away for a major purchase. Travel and moves are favored in October and May. Aries and Cancer adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 4, 12, 14, 30 and 45.

ASTROLOGICAL QUESTION:

“What is the responsibility of a person to stay married even after they don’t want to be? Should a Sagittarius stay married to a Cancer? We have been married 30 years. We are both in our 60s, and I don’t know if he’d be able to find another mate, to be honest. But I couldn’t care less if I find one. I’m just tired of being married.”

Of course, people find new partners at every age, even centenarians. Your concern over whether or not your husband can find a new partner touches on something at the core of this decision. What do we owe one another in relationships? You’re more concerned for his relationship status than for your own. Maybe it’s because you feel that you give more to the relationship, and in not having that responsibility anymore, you would be gaining something -- freeing up energy to give back to yourself -- while your Cancer husband (born to the sign of domesticity, and deeply attached to his home life) would be losing something, namely all that you give to the relationship. His loss of you might be harmful to his health and well-being, and yet how much of that is your responsibility? Isn’t your first responsibility to yourself and living your best life? For Sagittarius, the “best life” includes adventure. Could you do this and still be married? These are the questions to explore, and only you can answer them.

CELEBRITY PROFILES:

Of course the world famous twins Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen are Geminis. What else would they be? From “Full House” to full-on moguls, these savvy entertainers turned their talent into a billion-dollar brand. Gemini entrepreneurs are luckiest when they pursue projects that meld a sense of fun with the progressive style instincts this trendsetting sign is wellknown to possess.
