GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

★★★★ You might be concerned about a meeting that you can’t avoid. You could be surprised by what is shared. You could feel as though a lack of understanding exists between you and a friend. That feeling might be true; however, the situation can be resolved.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
