MONDAY’S HOROSCOPE

Happy Birthday for Monday, June 5, 2023:

You are multitalented and try to do everything. Learn to pace yourself. Take time off. This is the perfect year to take inventory of your life. You might have to let go of people, places and things that have held you back. Do some internal and external housecleaning.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult

ARIES (March 21-April 19)

★★★★ This is a productive day for you if you don’t get sidetracked with your kids, money issues (especially extravagance) or difficulties with romantic partners. These are touchy issues. Nevertheless, you’re actually focused and raring to go. Tonight: You’re high-viz.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

★★★★ This week, you’re involved with financial deals and cash flow. (Something’s cooking on the back burner.) Possibly, this relates to redecorating or renovating projects. You have strong ideas now about what you want to accomplish, and you’re thinking big! Tonight: Explore.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

★★★★ It’s all about you, dear Gemini, because the Sun is in your sign, which is energizing and empowering. This means you can use your clever verbal skills to avoid arguments with daily contacts, siblings and relatives, especially if they stand in the way of your behindthe-scenes plans. Tonight: Check your finances.

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

★★★ You prefer to be low-key this week, working alone or behind the scenes. However, very likely, you will get drawn into a power struggle about money, possessions or how you use the resources of someone else or how you respond to the request. It’s tricky. (But so are you.) Tonight: Be conciliatory.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

★★★ This is a popular week for you -- no question. Nevertheless, it begins with fair Venus and Mars in your sign opposing big daddy Pluto, which could indicate a power struggle. Some aspects of this power struggle might even be public. Or it could involve your successful reputation. Tonight: Work.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

★★★★ You have the upper hand this week. The Sun is at the top of your chart casting you in a flattering spotlight. This means, no matter what happens, you look pretty good in the eyes of others. (This is handy, because something going on behind the scenes might challenge you.) Tonight: Socialize.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

★★★ It’s a small wonder if you have a strong desire to “get away from it all” today. It appears that difficulties with friends or groups, and financial resources (possibly even related to your kids) are going to create a few problems this week. It’s time to get outta Dodge. Tonight: Cocoon.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

★★★ Today, tomorrow and especially on Wednesday, you will need to be tactful and diplomatic, because you will encounter power struggles with bosses, partners, friends and family members. With your steely self-discipline, focus and skill, you can weave through this unscathed. It’s who you are. Tonight: Communicate!

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

★★★★ The easiest way to survive the first half of this week (actually, maybe all of it) is to avoid controversial subjects, especially related to politics, religion or racial issues. Keep a low profile. There’s no need to stand on your soapbox. These difficulties could impact your work and even your health. Stay cool. Tonight: Maintain your assets.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

★★★★ Disputes about shared property, earnings, cash flow and how money is spent on children, vacations and social outings are just some examples of challenges that you might encounter today and in the next few days. You can’t avoid these challenges. But who better than you can demonstrate grace under pressure? Tonight: You win!

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

★★★ Avoid power struggles with partners and close friends today. Likewise, don’t involve family, because things will turn into a circus. Fortunately, you’re in a playful, upbeat frame of mind, and you want to have a good time! Go with what works. Tonight: Solitude.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

★★★★ Be patient with work colleagues today and later this week. You’ll be glad you did. (After all, you have to see these people next week as well.) Instead, swing your focus to home, family and your private life. You might even hide. Tonight: Be friendly.
