GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) It’s a

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Th e
Moon Child loves to fantasize about
magical happenings in the early part
of the week. But the sensible Crab
gets down to serious business by
week’s end.
SUPER CROSSWORD: CENTRAL ZOO
LEO (July 23 to August 22) What
goes around comes around for those
lucky Leos and Leonas whose acts
of generosity could be repaid with
opportunities to expand into new
and exciting areas of interest.
VIRGO (August 23 to September
22) Your concern about your job
responsibilities is commendable. But
you need to take some quiet time to
share with someone who has really
missed being with you.
LIBRA (September 23 to October
22) Aspects favor getting out and
meeting new people. And as a
bonus, you might fi nd that some of
your newly made friends could off er
important business contacts.
SCORPIO (October 23 to Novem-
ber 21) You might take pride in
wanting to do everything yourself.
But now’s a good time to ask family
members to help with a demanding
personal situation.
SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to
December 21) Pay more attention
to the possibilities in that workplace
change. It could show the way to
make that long-sought turn on your
career path.
CAPRICORN (December 22 to
January 19) Your need to succeed
might overwhelm obligations to
your loved ones. Ease up on that
workload and into some well-de-
served time with family and friends.
AQUARIUS (January 20 to Feb-
ruary 18) Love rules for amorous
Aquarians who can make good
use of their ability to communicate
feelings. Don’t be surprised if they’re
reciprocated in kind.
PISCES (February 19 to March
20) Fishing for compliments? No
doubt, you probably earned them.
But it’s best to let others believe they
were the ones who uncovered the
treasure you really are.
BORN THIS WEEK: Your good
works fl ow from an open, generous
heart. Nothing makes you happier
than to see others happy as well.
