TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (June 14). You already feel that life is good, but you’re about to believe it’s absolutely phenomenal. The next seven weeks bring an answer for every question, a date when you want one and opportunities galore. Give yourself a deserved break in August. September shows you rising up through the ranks of an organization. Pisces and Aquarius people adore you. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). The contradictions will seem to stand in defiance before you, daring you to make sense of them. This cannot be done with force or hard-line thinking. Gentleness and time will eventually bring all things into order. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You don’t want to owe anyone, and yet, if you were to swallow your pride and accept some help, you would quickly find yourself in a much better position. You could help others from that place, too. Take the help. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Difficult tasks are just a series of easy steps –a really long series, to be sure. But since you’re only tackling one step at a time, there is little difference between choosing a difficult task and an easy one. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You’ll encounter two types of people now: the talkers and the doers. They need each other. The talkers will be the marketers and the publicity for all that the doers need to advertise. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). If you don’t guess right or make a smart move right off the bat, don’t worry. This is how you gain the experience you need. If you’re always correct the first time, you won’t make a good teacher later. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Just because love is true doesn't mean it is easy. You’re up for the adventure, though. Loyalties will be tested. Learn even more about the person you love and about yourself. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Turn up the tunes and be carefree. One of your sign mates said this well: “I wish you music to help with the burdens of life, and to help you release your happiness to others.”—Ludwig van Beethoven CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). It is tempting to veer off course and set your sights on an entirely different goal. But you will gain so much confidence from doing what you set out to do, if only to prove the point that you’re a person who follows through. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). People think you're brave for speaking your mind, but what they don't understand is that you're just not the type to bottle things up. To you, that would be far more painful than just telling the truth. PISCES (Feb. 19-Mar. 20). What is it you most want people to feel around you? Your clear intentions have power. Cultivate and spread that emotion. Don’t worry about how. The result you want shapes your decisions unconsciously. ARIES (Mar. 21-Apr. 19). You feel Presents somewhat responsible for the happiI'm Not Rappaport ness of those you love.
