The last full day of the Gemini sun has the phone ringing off the hook with people who just want to check in. The next few weeks, it might not seem as important to see friends, but let them know they’re in your heart. Venus, Neptune and Mercury stir up amorous feelings for a wonderful night when you share dreams with someone special.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Though you’re terrific at directing that warrior energy in a positive, productive way, you may chuck it today in favor of becoming a peacekeeping mediator. Romance requires you to rise above the politics of the situation.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Listen to yourself, and avoid people who seem like trouble from the start. Your sleeve is an inconvenient place to wear your heart. Singles find they are luckier in love because of friends hip with a Libra of Pisces.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Consult a partner before investing; a Capricorn or Pisces won’t steer your wrong. Serious contemplation of the past alters your outlook on the present. Even if you’re got no faith, tonight brings a miracle.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Rise to the occasion with generosity, even when others let pride complicate matters. Don’t underestimate what your contribution is – you’re important. Your calm way of sorting through your feelings brings you new strength.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You’ll be given responsibility at work and could be put in charge of your colleagues. Consider a person’s abilities carefully before making assignments. For those seeking new business, the best leads are from the past.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (June 27). Outstanding luck in love marks the beginning of this new chapter in your life. Past partners come back to make you interesting offers now through July; make sure your memory serves you correctly. A change in your image attracts a new love in August. Faithful partners are Taurus and Pisces. Lucky money months are now, January and May. Your lucky numbers are: 5, 29, 33, 21, 52 and 8.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Work is particularly engaging. Business booms. Those with experience can keep you from making costly mistakes, Many Virgos are seduced into long hours, but at least your pay will reflect this diligence.

LIBRA (Sept.23-Oct.23). The big question lingers in the air: What are you supposed to do next? Don’t let small disappointments stop you. Life is a marathon, not a sprint. Goals require that you change, but that’s the beauty of it.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). An issue of privacy comes up. You want more of it. Things will evolve and be better – but you’ve got to do the hard thing and ask for what you want at the risk of hurting someone’s feelings.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Most of your hand is dealt to you at the very beginning of the day. The rest is about doing your best with what you have. A loved one has interesting news tonight. Your kind of response is important.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). There is a silent unity between you and family members, and even if not a lot is said, you know in your heart that you stand together. This kind of support is not to be taken for granted.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You’ll reap and sow the seeds of kindness. When you lost sight of what the highest good would be for everyone involved, don’t fret. Be silent, and your thoughts will be guided to solutions.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You have a wealth of ideas, but when it comes time to talk them through, you get shy. Remedy this by strengthening the bridge on which information passes between your left and right brains – read or sing out loud.

WEEKEND LOVE FORECAST: As the sun drifts into Cancer this weekend, a slow shift in consciousness brings emotional needs vividly into focus. Compromise is becoming less appealing, and finding someone who is more closely in line with your goals makes a little more sense. ARIES: The meek miss out, so speak up, and be original while you’re at it! TAURUS: Friday night stats out playfully enough, but by the end of the night, it’s hard to distinguish between what’s real and what’s a game. GEMINI: Don’t let crossed wires spoil your date. Be clear in your communication. CANCER: Passion ignites, so watch out! LEO: Show your strength of character through listening carefully – not only to what loved ones say but to everything they mean by what they say, too. VIRGO: Give your romantic partner the benefit of the doubt. LIBRA: Let fantasies stay fantasies. Acting them out is too dangerous. SCORPIO: You’ve got an enticing new look. SAGITTARIUS: Watch the drinking – you might promise what you do not intend to deliver. CAPRICORN: You are especially hot on Saturday and, quite frankly, irresistible. AQUARIUS: Fertility is high. PISCES: Give up the fight. It’s not worth it.

COUPLE OF THE WEEKEND: Libra is the artist, the beauty lover and the consummate partner. Teamed with charismatic Gemini, what could possibly go wrong? It is difficult to get either sign to commit to a long-term affair, but what is the rush? Both are content to vacillate in a middle ground indefinitely. Do not be concerned about what the world names your relationship. This love has merits only you two can truly understand!
