STAR TRACK

Aries (March 21-April 19) This is one of your challenging days. However, others will give you encouragement and are willing to lend a helping hand if things get too stressful. This could mean that today is the day for the big garage sale or the swim meet or any other group interaction. Some sort of temporary obstacle could appear making everyone feel a bit frustrated-rain, perhaps. Some project could be put on hold making everyone jump through hoops to find an alternate path. Satisfaction is as close as the phone. You are achievement oriented and may have difficulty understanding any interruptions but you will be pleased with the outcome of this day. You find ways to get your goals met, regardless of whatever occurs in the process. Satisfied sighs end this day. Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Reading the news or hearing some news report causes in-depth discussions to arise around the table this morning. Probing conversations find you at your mental best. You have a feeling that with the right amount of persuasion, coupled with the necessary knowledge and financial backing, you could succeed at anything. Today you toss a few ideas around with your friends or your mate. The results run more in your favor than you thought they would-congratulations. Now it is your turn to work out the details. This could be anything from a new project to rearranging the furniture. Your analytical abilities are good and you appear in control of your life. Now could be the time to make arrangements for a special date-perhaps flowers. Gemini (May 21-June 20)

You are curious about the happenings today and may find it quite difficult to hold back from asking questions. You may wonder where some activity is headed. Just be yourself and do whatever it is you feel you need to do in order to be productive in your own projects; all will be understood soon enough. If people need time to prepare the surroundings for a party or gathering, you might enjoy walking around a shopping mall with a friend or going to a movie for a couple of hours.
