GEMINI (May 21-June 21): You’re a designer looking for inspiration. You don’t have to sail to an exotic location, because your daily commute will provide inspiration. CANCER (June 22-July 22): There’s a thread running through all of this. Later you’ll be able to follow the thread through the pattern, and it will all make sense.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): The reason things wind up next to each other can be a function of random juxtaposition or of careful thought. The way it lands will be lucky for you. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Like a slow-loading website, if you try to entertain, they get bored waiting for something to happen, and they’ll leave. So keep it simple. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Cages take many forms. Even the most luxurious environments can be a prison. But you’re not in a cage. What you’re in is a maze. There’s a way out. It takes a bit of work to find it.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): There are people whose job it is to search for extraterrestrials.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Somewhere out there are glittering skyscrapers and technicolor trees and lakes that dazzle like a billion diamonds. Whether you prefer man-made glories or natural ones, seek them now! AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): The truth is supposed to keep things simple. The other person isn’t seeing it the way you do. Say nothing for now. Let everything settle in.

Don’t worry, there’s a simple fix once you get to the heart of it.
