TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You can’t lose, no matter how you play the game today. There is lots of opportunity around you, especially if you network with people in your field. Pick up on what everyone else wants or needs and you will stand a good chance of pleasing everyone.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): The less time spent thinking about what you have to do and the more time physically taking action, the better. You will get the help you need. Concentrate on what really matters to you personally.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): You’ll find yourself in an awkward position if you haven’t been honest about your feelings. Focus on work and professional dealings and you may be able to avoid some of the personal questions being asked of you. Don’t let your emotions take over.
