Your Stars

- By Linda Shaw

GEMINI May 21 - June 20

New relationsh­ips take on a special significan­ce as you reassess your emotional needs. There may be some travel as you arrange to meet someone you’ve been communicat­ing with for some time. This is an exciting cycle: one that could leave you wondering where the real you has been hiding all this time. There’s no better time to put old baggage down. And start again. Yum.

CANCER June 21 - Jul 22

Doing that disappoint­ment thing again? The joke is, while you’re feeling sorry for yourself, your friends are wondering what they can do to help. But since you’re being so secretive, they’re having a hard time figuring you out. Get off that self-righteous horse and speak. While you’re there, open doors. Someone out there is knocking. Those prospects are more interestin­g than you’d think.

LEO Jul 23 - Aug 22

Your inner child still feels worthless unless it excels in every arena. Try accepting that this is never going to happen — and look again. So no, you can’t win every battle. Neither can you make everyone like you. But if you’re drifting between two roads, here’s your chance to make a choice. And if it makes you feel any better, please note that the finances are in for a significan­t boost. Any minute now.

VIRGO Aug 23 - Sep 22

You’re getting vicious again. Stop. The real problem is that there’s a huge number of unspoken issues. Before it gets any weirder, take a deep breath and tell the truth. Looking for people to blame is a waste of energy. Focus on solutions. And be kind. Not everyone has your intellectu­al advantages. At work things are going better . Watch your temper there too. Find other ways to express.

LIBRA Sep 23 - Oct 22

The finances are taking a break. Good news for them but bad for you. No matter. Either check your paperwork for a while, or shut everything down until mid-July. Or both. Focus remaining attention on a love life desperatel­y in need of mouth-to-mouth. No point repeating old patterns. How about a new approach? Start by treating yourself as you’d like to be treated.

SCORPIO Oct 23 - Nov 21

Suffice to say that this is not your week. In fact, the way things are going, it may feel as though it’s not your life either. But that’s just because you have a rather short memory. Which is actually quite a good thing because when you charge off on your forthcomin­g adventure, you’ll have forgotten all about this little glitch. A mere wisp in the wind. Wait for next week’s full moon to change the vibes.

SAGITTARIU­S Nov 22 - Dec 21

No point forcing it. The goodies will come in their own good time. The point is, your values are changing and the old familiar rewards seem to be losing their meaning. The planets are asking you to let go of details that no longer count. And if you don’t do it yourself, you’ll find parts of your life disappeari­ng on their own. Smile and wave. It’s all part of the same great ride.

CAPRICORN Dec 22 - Jan 20

Whine, whine, moan. If you have a problem, why not say so? In your desperate attempt to appear well-bred, you’ve swallowed your rage. Can you see it? It’s creating huge bumps around your hips. It’s true. Suppressed anger has to go somewhere – and where else but into your body? So how about a meeting with all the people involved? Time to put the flab down.

AQUARIUS Jan 20 - Feb 18

That fascinatin­g mind of yours is fairly percolatin­g with new ideas and a thirst for knowledge. Courses, seminars, a little writing maybe — and some new horizons are spread out for the taking. You won’t be alone either. This kind of enthusiasm is highly contagious, bringing with it helpers and partners. There’s also a project designed to improve your standing in the community. Take it and run.

PISCES Feb 19 - Mar 20

Unexpected demands at work are making you insecure about your next move. Don’t worry. Exciting opportunit­ies are opening up already and as long as you’re willing to adapt, you’ll easily find something good. You’ll also discover an old friend who can help you, so this is no time for false pride. Think of everything that comes to you as a gift from the universe – and be grateful.

ARIES Mar 21 - April 19

The office politics are calming down but your battered little soul is still recovering from the onslaught. So don’t be surprised if your cynical side leaps to the fore. You’re feeling angry and abused, and your first option is to fight back. When you’re tired of that, take a few days off. You need some time alone to regenerate. Look for ways not to take any of this personally.

TAURUS Apr 20 - May 20

At last you’re making real sense. Both to yourself and them. Careful not to paint yourself into a corner in your desperatio­n to correct past mistakes. Everyone’s entitled to a little dilliness at times. And as of now, the folks are willing to forgive you your trespasses. Because they’re going to find you irresistib­le instead. One more thing. Fertility is with you. Careful how you distribute those genes.
