Géminis

Overview

You can't just assume things will work out correctly. You've got to make sure that you're actually trying out those plans in real life. A little experimentation goes a long way on a day like today.

Love for Singles

It's great to go out with lots of diverse people, but is it time for you to start looking for one to settle down with? Only you can decide, obviously, but if you're ready, things are in your favor today.

Love for Couples

Everyone has a role in a relationship. Maybe one partner changes the oil in the car and the other plans the meals. It's important to remind yourself that you're capable of being more than those roles to each other, though.

Today's Career Prediction

Communication is important right now, but also more difficult than usual. Take your time and make your positions as clear as possible to avoid any miscommunication or misunderstanding.

Overview

A horizon-broadening experience might be exactly what your heart is yearning for when the week begins. Plan a date night or simply spend time with a loved one getting out of your comfort zone, and you could feel swept up in something that feels magical and downright perspective shifting. Later, you might find you’ve reached a culmination in your professional path and you're itching to begin moving in a new direction. Now is the time to do a self-check and see if your values and long-term goals still align with your work. If it feels as though they’re out of sync, taking concrete action steps will help you center emotionally. 

Love

The first half of the week is all about communication. On Monday, you may need to find alternate means of getting your message across, but your creative nature is totally up to the task. Tuesday and Wednesday see you at your best, and you should easily be able to tell your sweetie or date exactly what you're thinking and how you're feeling. Watch out for jealousy or possessiveness later in the week -- you may suddenly find yourself turning into someone you don't want to be! The weekend should be fun after that brief episode, and conversation should sparkle again!

Travel

Accounting's in the stars at the week's outset, so keep an eye on bills, receipts and your trip budget. If you're traveling on business, running the numbers again (or running them by the home office) could save you some later hassle. Terrific energy's coming your way from later on Tuesday all the way through Thursday; meeting people is incredibly rewarding on many levels (and even leisure travelers may inadvertently do some great business networking). Bring an adaptable attitude along this weekend -- things can't always go exactly your way on the road, but you can always make the best of it.

This Week's Career Prediction

If you're faced with a limitation at the beginning of the week, keep looking. Developing a better understanding and gathering more info around Wednesday and Thursday gives you more options and more ammo, while the stars give you particularly convincing interpersonal energy. Your workaround looks way better at this juncture than others' plan A. Then watch your availability over the next couple days. Knowing when -- and how -- to say 'no' is key. Sunday's a perfect time to bat some new ideas around and you're likely to find one you're especially amped about.
