(June 4 Tuesday)

Grand Trine Meets Taurus Moon Do you have a vision you can’t wait to see become reality? Do you believe this dream is in some way your destiny? The grand trine in water signs is working in your favor on a spiritual level, helping you own this vision like it’s already a part of who you are. The moon will shift into Taurus offering your first piece of tangible proof.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Break your patterns. Doing things out of order, upside down and bottom to top will help you gain the detached point of view you need to understand what’s really going on today.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You have nothing to hide. And yet, you don’t like the idea that much of what you do, purchase, post, like and enjoy is being tracked in some way. Issues of privacy will arise.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You prefer to actually be useful, not to merely look busy. And there are those

around who don’t even know better than to proudly display their idleness. You have something to teach them now.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). There are those “stumble upon” kind of days when solutions come rolling into your path. But today will require more effort. In order to find an answer, you have to look for one.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). There’s a kind of chase going on inside your head akin to a dog chasing his own tail. If you’re not having any breakthroughs on the matter that’s on your mind, the best course is not to think about it for a while.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Instead of trying to control a situation, gain the trust of the people involved. Then you won’t have to assert yourself or attempt to force your agenda; you’ll just have to ask nicely.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). There is a huge difference between doing something weekly or monthly and doing it every day. There will be an opportunity to in- corporate a good habit into your daily life, and there are rich rewards for doing so.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You will show patience and afford people more leeway than they deserve in the moment. To respect the people around you even when they are not acting in a respectful way toward you is the kind of true nobility you strive for.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). For most of the day, you’ll smile, charm and offer your two bits. You don’t mind entertaining others, but if you wind up alone tonight, you’ll love the company and will be happy for the break.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You don’t criticize or compete with your people. You are absolutely loyal to those above and under you in rank. In this regard, you set a tone that others will follow today.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Even though your contribution to a group is substantial and important, you may not get personal props for this. It won’t hurt to quietly keep track, though, so later you can build a case for your own promotion.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Sometimes you like to be the performer who puts on a spectacular show. But right

now you don’t want all the pressure that comes with that. You just want to do 'you," and you'll find that people respond

to exactly who you are. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (June 4). Your certainty in yourself opens doors. Make the most of the stellar work opportunities that come over the next six weeks. August has a loose, relaxed feel, and your social life thrives. Lifestyle changes in September improve your health and fitness, and a new guru helps. In February, you’ll declare your love, and this will be a life changer. Libra and Capricorn people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 4, 8, 13, 24 and 32.

ASTROLOGICAL QUESTIONS:

“Help! I’ve been dating a Libra for six weeks, and I feel him pulling away. I really, really, really, really like him, and I think he needs to give this relationship a chance. But now when we’re together, it’s like I’m panicked inside, trying to say all the right things to make him feel that spark we had in the beginning, and it’s just working against me. I don’t want to lose this one! What can I do to bring the sizzle back? I’m a Virgo.”

Your Virgo work ethic is stellar, and you’re always willing to do what’s necessary to get what you want. But working at making someone love you is never a good idea. You’re better off working at loving yourself -- delighting yourself and doing what you want to do. The energy of trying to say, do and be the right thing is off- putting both in love and friendship. Better to state your true opinion, contribute to decisions by claiming your real preferences and keep tending to your own interests. Libras are social and charming, and they appreciate what others bring to the table. Don’t be too amenable. Be willing to let him go if he’s not “getting” you. Your detachment will be attractive.
