HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Monday, June 27, 2016: This year you have an unusual amount of get-up-and-go — so much so that those who have known you for a while might wonder what has happened to you. You will accomplish a lot, especially if you stay focused. Your intuition makes all the difference in your choices and success; listen to it. If you are single, you could meet someone at work and/or when involved in a community project. Learn to understand a different lifestyle and thought process. If you are attached, your sweetie could be offended by your frequent outings. Consider bringing him or her out with you more often. ARIES can be pushy.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) You’ll spring into action right from the start today. When you feel as if you have said enough, allow the other parties involved to imagine what it would be like if you were not there to pitch in. You will get the nod of approval when you least expect it. Tonight: As you like it.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) If you wish to say little today, make that OK. Don’t compromise yourself or accept a situation or behaviour that you normally would not agree to. You’ll get to the root of your resistance, which seems to play out frequently. Tonight: Catch up on some sleep.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You might feel as if you are unstoppable. Don’t allow someone to throw you off with his or her attitude. Resist a request to contribute to an item or event that could cost you more than you are willing to spend; it likely won’t be worth it. Tonight: Where the crowds are.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) Take a stand, knowing full well what is happening on the homefront. Discretion could go a long way toward resolving a problem. Tap into your imagination when listening to someone else discuss an idea; try to visualise what he or she is describing. Tonight: Could go till the wee hours.

LEO (July 23-Aug 22) Reach out to a close associate or loved one to get feedback on a touchy matter. You could feel vulnerable. Pull away from someone’s harsh and/or sarcastic comment. Understand that this comment has nothing to do with you; don’t personalise it. Tonight: Look beyond the obvious.

VIRGO (Aug 23-Sept 22) One-on-one relating will ignite your imagination and light a fire under you. Others are likely to express their support for an idea that might have been on the back-burner for a while, which you were keeping hush-hush. Tonight: Listen to a loved one’s impressions.

LIBRA (Sept 23-Oct 22) Defer to others, yet share more of what is on your mind. You’ll discover the importance of openness, especially if you are not the lead player. Sometimes you close down when you don’t get enough attention; try to stop that behaviour. Tonight: Go along with another person’s plans.

SCORPIO (Oct 23-Nov 21) Work might be the dominant theme right now, but you could have difficulty getting past an immediate hassle that is preventing you from moving forward. Understand that a lot seems to be going on behind the scenes that you have yet to discuss. Tonight: Off to the gym.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22-Dec 21) You might put your best foot forward at first, but later could regret the effort. Others seem to understand your uncertainty, and will do their very best to counteract what is bothering you. It might be appropriate to share what ails you. Tonight: Make no preconceived decisions yet.

CAPRICORN (Dec 22-Jan 19) Pressure builds on the homefront, which encourages you to move forward with deliberation. Follow your intuition, and you are likely to discover that you can bypass any problems. Be more forthright about what is happening when speaking to a trusted associate. Tonight: With a buddy.

AQUARIUS (Jan 20-Feb 18) Read between the lines as you attempt to determine what is going on around you. Chatting with others will help you to determine what is happening. Remain focused, despite what you are hearing and the consequential responses. Tonight: Visit with an older friend or loved one.

PISCES (Feb 19-March 20) Follow your intuition and see where it takes you. Don’t push too hard in any direction until you are able to confirm that it is the right path for you. Be aware of the costs of proceeding in your chosen direction. Tonight: When a certain person speaks up, listen carefully.
