TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Someone may be leading you on. An opportunity presented to you will have its flaws. Problems at home will mount if you are stubborn. Refuse to let personal matters interfere with your productivity.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Everything is starting to turn in your favor. Socialize with colleagues and you will reach an agreement that helps you all excel. An interesting partnership will allow you to try things that you have wanted to do for some time.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Pick up a new skill or update your wardrobe to help you look more professional. Don’t allow anyone to take advantage of your giving nature. Someone will show jealous tendencies. Be humble and gracious and don’t retaliate.
