The Week of June 5

You can always tell a Gemini because they love to communicate. This air sign is either communicating by word of mouth or writing. As long as they are able to tell their tales they are happy. The true nature of a Gemini is kinky. They love being unique and different and since they get bored easily and love change it is hard to keep them down on the farm once they have seen Broadway. It is just impossible to keep a Gemini's interest for long. Unless you too like constant moving about and you think kinky thoughts, then it is impossible to have a good relationship with a Gemini. So if you are one who loves staying at home by the fire, it would be wise to think twice before getting involved with a Gemini. Known as the Butterfly of the Zodiac because of their constant flitting from one venture to another, the Gemini likes to get away, travel and then tell you great stories of their adventures. So naturally to be involved with a Gemini you must learn to listen, love to travel and have a sharp mind. Gemini has a great sense of humor and naturally put a high priority on fun and games.

Birthdays celebrated this week: Noah Wyle of ER, June 4, 1971; Bill Moyers of PBS, June 5, 1934; Bjorn Borg of long ago tennis fame, June 6, 1956; Jenny Jones of talk show fame, June 7, 1946; Joan Rivers of QVC fame, June 8, 1933; Michael J. Fox, a movie and TV star, June 9, 1961; Tara Lipinski, well known Olympic ice skater, June 10, 1982; Joe Montana long ago football great, June 11, 1956; Marv Albert well known sports caster, June 12, 1941.

It seems that when you are not ready for the pressure of fame big problems can develop. You get carried away with your own publicity. Susan Boyle, who basically lived a sheltered life has taken fame way too seriously. She lost the final round and some reports say she is now under a doctor's care. Some biographies say she is a Gemini born on May 17, 1961 and others list her birthday as April 1, 1961. So take your pick. Conan O'Brien is officially an Aries and he is taking his latest bout with fame in stride, or so it seems. After all, he has been trained to deal with the public and so won't have the same problems that Susan or Jon and Kate Gosselin are having. Mercury is now direct and Mars is in Taurus. The next full moon is Sunday, so this will be an emotional week for many of us. Just keep track of your emotions and all will be fine. The new moon this month is on June 22 making the last week of June a good time to start anew.

Aries (March 21 to April 20) With Pluto in Capricorn making strong aspects to Aries, just watch out. Avoid any activity that is not above board and clear as a bell or you could find yourself once again in the middle of chaos. The full moon on Sunday could knock you for a loop with emotions so try being careful and promise nothing you can't deliver immediately.

Taurus (April 21 to May 20) Mars is now in Taurus until mid-July so watch any financial decisions you may be making now. Also, watch your language because it is very possible people will misunderstand what you are trying to say and do. With Pluto making good aspects to your sun sign you can certainly expect, if you are careful, very good luck.

Gemini (May 21 to June 20) Entertaining at home would be a fun thing to do right now. Just invite really good people and have an emotional time just before the full moon on Sunday. You deserve a good time after all the work you have been doing recently. A new friend could become a serious relationship if you let it. So plan to get out and about and meet some new people.

Cancer (June 21 to July 20) This is not a good time to loan money or things. It will just cause havoc and who needs that just before the full moon? Try dealing with one friend at a time right now because your emotions are in full bloom and if you put too much on your plate there will be problems galore. Let family members know you are in charge of your life now. Stop listening to others and their advice. You know better.

Leo (July 21 to August 20) You need to make some modifications to your latest new plan and it will turn out much better than you think. This new pal could be just what you need to help on your project. It needs to be streamlined and once that is done it will work beautifully. So try letting it happen. Step aside and take the advice and then move forward towards the ultimate success.

Virgo (August 21 to September 20) Since you are a detail oriented person it would be wise to check the details of your latest venture. If you don't think of what could happen as a result of your decisions now then down the road you will pay the price. Just think before you make any move and then do what needs to be done with a good feeling. Certainly one of the things you must have learned in the last year is patience. So use it.

Libra (September 21 to October 20) Your work will be inspired now, so get started. A new project with an old friend is just what you need. Any problems with distance or upset concerning your latest ideas should be reviewed and if found wanting make the changes. Otherwise, ignore the negative and move onward. Success is just around the corner if you do the work.

Scorpio (October 21 to November 20) Learn to relax and the tension and stress you have been living under will ease up and you will feel tip top. Otherwise, the tension created by Mars in Taurus opposite your sun sign will get you. You need to make a few moves so you can be busy and really happy now. A new relationship could be about to start. All you need to do is let it.

Sagittarius (November 21 to December 20) Any chores that are backlogged in your life should be completed shortly. If you are able to get things together you will start a totally new life and be able to gain the success you are interested in now. A friend could be very helpful with your goals and getting things done. So call him and get going this week.

Capricorn (December 21 to January 20) Pluto in Capricorn promises a total change of pace for you. So start looking at the changes you want to make and don't let anyone or anything stand in your way. You must make some moves forward very soon. A phone call could contain vital info for you to know, so make sure to listen.

Aquarius (January 21 to February 20) If you review the things you have learned in the past six months you will surely be proud of how you handled things. Work your schedule as though you knew what you were doing. An old friend needs to be contacted by you. Stop waiting for him to call you. It is your turn, so make the move.

Pisces (February 21 to March 20) A full moon week is always a good time for you to get your act together and change a few things and this month is no exception. Do what needs to be done at home and then take off on another new adventure. A pal could suggest a trip and you better say OK. You need a change of pace once again.
