Happy Birthday! This year, you plunge ahead and experience new ideas. Often, you find others to be abrupt or unpredictable. Make that OK, as you won't be able to change others, and you have never really been able to. You can choose your reaction. Often, you are so much in your head that others need to nearly break in. Curb a tendency to spend and/or be indulgent. If you are single, you meet people with ease, but proceed with care. Relationships have a wild, unpredictable tone. If you are attached, enjoy your partner's quirkiness rather than criticize it. GEMINI is demanding.
(March 21-April 19)
You come from a solid place, with good intentions. Those around you sense your integrity. You discover alternatives in a discussion with a friend. Be happy that you are not the only person with good ideas. Two minds work better than one. Tonight: Return calls. Clear your desk. Catch up on a friend's news.
(April 20-May 20)
Realize what is going on behind the scenes. Dealing with a boss can be challenging because he or she is vague or spacey. Right now, you have a tendency to do a Vulcan mind meld with those you find on another plane. Tonight: Treat yourself and a special friend.
(May 21-June 20)
You are all smiles, and others respond to your energy. In fact, where you had difficulty before seems easy. Follow through on what up till now has been a dream. Your mind works overtime, but you are right-on. Tonight: Get into weekend mode.
(June 21-July 22)
A partner or associate relates on a one-on-one level. You are centered and direct in a conversation. Someone shares a confidential matter. Honor this person's trust. Resist letting another person know that you see his or her true motives. Tonight: Get some extra R and R when you can.
(July 23-Aug. 22)
Don't delay a decision. Once it's made, zero in on what you want. Someone close, perhaps an associate or neighbor, realizes where you are coming from. Success comes from a meeting with a group of supporters. Tonight: Going for what you want.
(Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
You might be reticent to take a stand. Curb a tendency to make decisions or judgments without others' feedback and/or acknowledgment. Inspiration comes from a new element in your daily life. Tonight: Burning the candle at both ends.
(Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
To many people, you seem mentally impulsive and direct. Others don't understand how well thought out your actions are. Sometimes sharing more of the process eliminates some of the flak. You cannot expect others to go from 1 to 5. It took us a while to get there, too. Tonight: The only answer is "yes."
(Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
Your instincts will guide you with a partner. This person is lighter and more spontaneous. However, he or she also needs and wants your participation. The timing might be such that a discussion finally brings agreement. Tonight: Go with a quirky idea.
(Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
Obviously, you cannot control others, but you can let go of trying. Relationships will flourish in both the professional and personal realms of yourlife if you do. Everyone feels better with this give-and-take. Honor your feelings. Tonight: Be light and easy.
(Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Emphasize completion rather than working on several different projects. A boss or superior lets you know how much he or she appreciates your efforts. You wonder if you have enough get-up-and-go to accomplish your goals. Remember, you are the Goat, the one who climbs uphill. Tonight: Finally, relax.
(Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
Your sense of direction comes from an inner knowing that is difficult to explain. Creativity mixes with intellect, taking away the word "impossible." Don't delay acting on what is important. The time is now. Tonight: Get into the spirit of fun.
(Feb. 19-March 20)
You are coming from a secure place and know what your priorities are. Communicating them to someone is another issue. A partner might be more receptive than in the past. Tonight: Happy at home.
