You might be surprised at the many different possibilities that open up when you say, "No, I want something different." Let your imagination loose. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) ****** Sometimes you are much stronger and more determined than you realize. Others back off and part the way for you. It seems as if you have many more solutions than you are aware of. Someone might find you a bit pushy, Yes, you GEMINI (May 21- June 20) **** Recognize that everyone has his or her limits – even you. Do you really want to cause yourself additional angst by spending and overindulging? Ultimately, how good is this behavior for you? Work on being good to yourself. CANCER (June 21-July 22) ****** You have a way of drawing reactions that can sometimes be disconcerting. Step back, and use your high energy to create more of what you want out of life. You can do it -- promise. Aim, and you could hit the bull's-eye. LEG (July 23-Aug. 22) * Take your time making a decision. You might not be comfortable with someone's drive and pushiness. Quite clearly, this person wants his or her way only. Be as reasonable as possible, as you do have to "answer" to this person. You know what works; do just that. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) ★★ VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sep. 22) ***** Seek out facts and only facts, Virgo. Discard hearse and passim. Strong actions right now will result in success. Do not hesitate, but rather zero in on what you must do or really would like to do. Meetings prove to be lucky. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) ****** Do loosen up and don't get uptight. Others might challenge your direction and leadership. Realize that you have more impact than you are aware of. Integrate what you judge to be good ideas. Others will follow your lead. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) ****** Being able to take the high road can make or break your day. Don't get triggered by someone who is very difficult. You need to claim your power and bypass a problem. You will naturally find solutions. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) ***** Others want it their way. Why not let them have what they want instead of fighting the trend? Ultimately, you will be much happier. See what others create. They also need to see the end results. Help out after the final results are in. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) ***** You will want others to tell it like it is. Your imagination might be challenged by someone else's haste. Others appreciate your ability to find answers and solve problems. Be careful with a moody loved one. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) ★★★ Be more nurturing to someone who frequently has a difficult time. You will want to lie back and take your time with someone you find difficult. Don't indulge in impatience. Stay even. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) ★★★★* What you say might be strong and forceful, but will draw the response you need. Another needs this wake-up call. Your creativity will surge to a new level if you allow others to challenge you.
