Gemini (May 21-June 20) ■■■■ – Listen carefully to what others propose. You might not be exactly on-target right now. Distraction marks the next few days. You might not have grasped the total picture of a situation. Loosen up and you will be able to see things clearly.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) ■■■■ – Sometimes your playful ways are easily misread. Review a situation, keeping in mind that there could be a problem with risk and emotional matters. Your creativity comes forward to save the day.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) ■■■ – Tension stirs. Perhaps it is time to stop hemming and hawing and tell someone how you feel. You have let your feelings brew, and as a result, they might be causing you a problem. Express yourself with creativity and vulnerability.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) ■■■■ – Listen to what others are saying. Someone might spill the beans out of the blue. You have waited a long time to get results or to find out what is in someone else’s head. Stop and listen rather than talk.
