(April 5-April 19) -- You can shower others with much of what is wanted this week, but the danger of going without yourself is something you'll have to assess as you go. Now is no time for sacrifices.

TAURUS (April 20-May 5) -- You've been letting certain things get out of hand lately, but you don't yet know it. Events of the week show you all you need to see -- and then some.

GEMINI (May 21-June 6) -- You may not be as sure-footed this week as you are wont to be, but that shouldn't be significant if you have surrounded yourself with others who are looking out for you. (June 7-June 20) -- A bumpy road is to be expected this week, especially early on when you're still learning what it means to be in your unique position. A wise decision is made later on.

CANCER (June 21-July 7) -- You may require more support this week than you've enjoyed in the past, but that doesn't mean you won't make any progress until you get it. Keep moving forward!
