GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You're going to have to work hard to keep everything in order today as others you know threaten to throw your business into chaos.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- "No" may be the only answer you hear today when you ask for permission to do this, that or the other thing. Should you do it anyway?

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You're going to have to ask yourself a question that you've feared someone else would ask. The answer surprises you -- but you can work with it.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Now is no time to complicate matters. Focus on what must be done, and acknowledge that there are things you clearly must not do.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- Before the day is over, you're going to have to streamline your efforts in order to maximize your reward. You can't do everything all at once.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You may find it somewhat difficult today to control certain impulses. Why not give yourself completely free rein and see what follows?

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You're likely to get only one more reminder about something you promised to do and haven't yet done. After that, it's all up to you.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- The first part of the day isn't likely to lead inevitably to what happens to you during the last part -- and study teaches you exactly why.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You may not be the best judge of what works for you today. Let a friend examine what's going on and help you decide your next course of action.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- What you see is what you get today, but it may not seem so. How you interpret the fine print explains any seeming differences. Look closely.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You have a very clear idea of what lies in store, but you must be open to surprises if you're to make the most of a new opportunity.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- The inspiration you usually get from a certain source isn't available to you today -- but you mustn't let that stop you. Keep going.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- The more direct you are in expressing your needs and desires, the more likely you will be to be satisfied by day's end. You know whom to talk to.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Nothing that is too popular is likely to interest you today, for you're of a mind to steer clear of what pleases the masses at this time.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You may sink into something of a funk today as a result of unnecessary comparisons with others. You surely know your true value.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Only the genuine is going to interest you today, and when it comes to conversation and discussion, you'll insist that others deliver up the truth.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You are likely looking for errors where there are none -- but at the same time, you're missing others elsewhere that are easy to fix.
