Gemini (May 21-June 21). You can’t believe all you hear around the proverbial watercooler, and that goes double when the “watercooler” is social media.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Your taste is exquisite but it’s a hard thing to prove without a tangible expression.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20). You’re unlikely to take part in events without contributing something that makes a difference.
