Take your time and don’t be in a hurry. If your partners/associates and friends are impatient and indifferent to what you say, go easy on them. Lighten the atmosphere by not taking things seriously.

Taurus
[ April 21 to May 20 ]

Your social stars have gained momentum. The people you associate with must have realised by now that you were their best hope. If your talents are not utilised, they could lose the benefit they have been longing for.

Gemini
[ May 21 to June 21 ]

You will be taking an important decision this week. Your strength lies in your wisdom and sense of humour. Your policy of relying on experienced persons could also benefit you.

The main areas of benefit to you will be travel, education and the pursuance of a legal battle. The simple way to cope with all these activities is work which should be your first priority.

Leo
[ July 23 to Aug 22 ]
