Week of June 21 to 27, 2015
ARIES You’re concerned about your health and you’d like to get a bit more fit, even if only for the summer months. This would be a good time to start a diet. TAURUS You’re given a platform on which to express yourself. You may say so- mething that will be remembered for a long time to come or that will spread around the world, courtesy of the Web. GEMINI Big projects are being organized at home as well as between you and your partner. You may decide to live with someone new and start a fa- mily, even if it’s a blended one. CANCER You’re tempted to express out loud what others are only thinking. How- ever, your wisdom and maturity should help you choose your words diplomatically. LEO You have a hard time controlling your spending when you find your- self in a beautiful store. A more spi- ritual way of life would be a very attractive option. VIRGO You may be able to accomplish a brilliant exploit. You may soon meet your soul mate if you’re single, or you start talking about the future with your new partner. LIBRA The most important thing right now is your health. You become increa- singly aware of its importance and live more for the moment. Rest and relaxation are also on the menu this week. SCORPIO Not everyone can manage stress well. Start by accepting who you are and don’t try to swim against the current. You find a great source of inspiration. SAGITTARIUS A specific event requires you to call an emergency meeting, at work or elsewhere. Many people are relying on you to get everything done. CAPRICORN Even if you’re going on vacation, it’s important to take the time to get organized, especially if you’re going abroad or on a road trip. There are lots of things to think about. AQUARIUS If you’re on the point of renewing your mortgage, you’re in a strong position to renegotiate everything. You benefit from a more flexible budget. PISCES For one reason or another, you may have some difficulty in coming to a decision. You try to weigh the pros and cons, but it’s your heart that will give you the answer.
