TAURUS (April 20-May 5) -- It's time for you to collect what's coming to you. You must accept nothing short of what you have been promised. (May 6-May 20) -- You can make a deal that serves you well now and in the weeks to come. Someone else changes his or her mind and comes over to your side.

GEMINI (May 21-June 6) -- What you think will take hardly any time at all is likely to become all-consuming -- not that you are complaining! (June 7-June 20) -- A friend sees what's coming when you don't, and you're likely to be saved by a last-minute intervention of sorts. Be grateful!

CANCER (June 21-July 7) -- You can help another or you can help yourself, but you're not likely to have it both ways. Your instincts tell you which direction to go. (July 8-July 22) -- As you're waiting for news that could conceivably change everything, you'll want to revisit certain past events.

TAURUS (April 20-May 5) -- Pace is of less concern than actual productivity, which will be affected by more than mere resourcefulness. Attitude is key. (May 6-May 20) -- Now is the time for you to tell someone precisely how you feel, and why. Don't assume that he or she is able to read your mind.

GEMINI (May 21-June 6) -- Attempting to do something in the face of overwhelming odds may seem like folly to some, but to you it is clearly a learning situation. (June 7-June 20) -- You are capable of doing more than you have been assigned, and you can prove just how valuable your contributions really are.

CANCER (June 21-July 7) -- Something rather out of the ordinary is likely to catch your attention early in the week, bringing you face to face with a challenge. (July 8-July 22) -- See if you can surprise yourself by completing a project ahead of schedule. You'll have more time for yourself!

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 7) -- You've been telling yourself for some time that something has to change. What are you going to do about it? (Nov. 8-Nov. 21) -- You'll benefit from an influx of new and up-to-date information. Someone close to you may provide you with the last piece of a puzzle.

TAURUS (April 20-May 5) -- You may have to come up with an entirely new schedule for yourself -- one that you can live with over the long haul. (May 6-May 20) -- Others are gravitating toward you because of your no-fault attitude and ability to laugh in the face of adversity.

GEMINI (May 21-June 6) -- Are you ready to address a certain issue to which you have turned a blind eye for too long? There's really no excuse! (June 7-June 20) -- You must -- and will -- fulfill all your obligations. Your own personal needs must come second.

CANCER (June 21-July 7) -- A decision early in the week has far-reaching ramifications, but you might not be fully aware of this. Use common sense. (July 8-July 22) -- You're likely to be far more important to another's success than you know. Just being there has a positive impact overall.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 7) -- Though your presence may not be necessary, you'll have a long-distance impact on something going on far from home. (Aug. 8-Aug. 22) -- What you know and what you think you know may become intertwined to the point that reality takes on an unusual guise.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 7) -- Agreement isn't necessary at all times, but it is important that you be civil even when faced with objections that seem to come out of nowhere.
