Make a decision April 22 and enjoy a long-range surprise Halloween night.

Gemini

(May 20-June 20) Your love life seemed fairly low key last year. Very un-Gem-like. Expect changes as 2020 unfolds. Lovers must hustle to keep up with you. But isn’t inventing new forms of relationships just what fast-track Geminis are all about?

Enlightenment arrives with the new moon in your sign May 21, the first day of the rest of your
