A positive day

Your communication skills are excellent today. Don't hesitate to go after what you want because the world will cooperate with you. In particular, you will be convincing when talking to a member of a group or an organization — a discussion that might prompt you to modify future goals.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

An average day

This is an excellent day for financial discussions or negotiations related to your earnings, as well as anything to do with a major purchase. You'll be firm dealing with groups. A boss or authority figure might give you advice about a new source of income. Ka-ching!

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

A positive day

You can achieve a lot today because the moon is in your sign dancing beautifully with four other planets. It's a great day for careful planning, discussions about future goals, as well as exploring travel options and publishing opportunities. Go for it!

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

An average day

Today you feel strongly motivated by something going on behind the scenes, or perhaps something you learned through research. As a result, bosses, parents and people in authority will listen to you and respect your suggestions. (You have strong opinions about shared property and inheritances.)

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

A positive day

This is a popular time for you! Today in particular, travel for pleasure or a chance to do something different will appeal. Discussions with people from other countries or different cultures will go well. It's a good day to expand your horizons. Be patient during intense exchanges with partners and friends.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
