Don't ever assume that somebody else can do the job better than you can. GEMINI (May 21-June 21) Today is a 7 Don't lose your temper, even if someone who outranks you is wrong. Stupidity happens to all of us at one time or another. Don't do anything stupid yourself. CANCER (June 22-July 22) Today is a 7 It's not a good day to travel but it's OK for making plans. Scratch a lot of destinations off your list before you choose. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Today is a 7 More planning is required. Luckily, you're in the mood. Start with a list of all the barriers that are in your way. Keep your objective in mind. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Today is a 7 Don't expect to get much done today. There's too much chaos going on.

This is a very good to know. Don't quit your job; stay in school. The money's coming in, but will it be enough? Not if you flash it all over town. Postpone the big celebration. You are about to come up against a wall that's too high to climb over. Don't hurt yourself trying. Study the barrier and you might dissolve it.
