22 MIDWEEK MAY 31, 2023
RELEASE DATE—Sunday, May 28, 2023 RELEASE DATE—Sunday, May 28, 2023
We are spurred to grand displays of love and affection this week. Spread your charisma and see how much you sizzle.
GEMINI (MAY22-JUNE21)
Geminis are naturally sociable and flirtatious and now you are full of extra charisma. Every word you utter is received happily and you charm anyone you want to charm. Use this amped-up gift of gab to make your life more content and in greater balance. Pursue avenues that lead you to new opportunities and associations.
CANCER (JUNE22-JULY23)
Your mind is especially active with making your future more comfortable monetarily, Cancer. Not only are you getting more creative ideas about how to best balance your budget and achieving more fiscal indepen- dence, you find trusted advisers to help you along. Tread carefully but fitfully as you navigate your way to riches.
LEO (JULY24-AUGUST23)
Leos have a certain extra oomph now that leads them to new important contacts. Mingle and swingle as you maneuver through all types of events where the influential folks congregate. Plan your eventual ascent as you charm those who can do important things for you down the road. Make the perfect first impression. You will!
VIRGO (AUGUST24-SEPTEMBER23)
What is it that seems to inspire others and makes you a bit more intuitive and psychic, Virgo? I don’t know but be sure to milk this talent for as long as you can. It leads you to greater personal harmony and self-protection as you forge new pathways in your life. Find time to give back to the world through charitable efforts.
LIBRA (SEPTEMBER24-OCTOBER23)
This is a great time to get more involved in group activities, Libra. Not only will you be able to find the perfect group for you, but you will inspire others to join you in your own personal like-minded group. You are usually popular and now you are even more so. Find the harmony in interactions with others and see where you can all go.
SCORPIO (OCTOBER24-NOVEMBER22)
Any long term plans or career goals suddenly seem within reach, Scorpio. The secret to your eventual success is to turn on the charm and see who you can impress with your expertise and energy. There are be those who can give you a leg up on the corporate ladder, if that is what you want. First decide what you really want.
SAGITTARIUS (NOVEMBER23-DECEMBER22)
Any big adventure brings you more than you expect now, Sagittarius. And that is great — you need more energetic oomph coupled with some luck to bring you to a new level of self-understanding. Find ways to get out of your comfort zone and embrace the world. You will rule.
CAPRICORN (DECEMBER23-JANUARY20)
You love deeply and profoundly, Capricorn. Allow the depths of your emotions to waft into your immediate environment and use it to inspire others. Become a major force in any major effort or grand cause whether it is on a global or personal level. You exude and also attract love and passion like a magnet to others. Wow!
AQUARIUS (JANUARY21-FEBRUARY19)
Any relationship that has ruptured can be mended now, Aquarius, if you want that. You are a diplomat. Find ways of bridging gaps now and inspire others with your charisma and affection. Compromises can be reached and associations strengthened. There is power in unity, especially now. No one is an island unto themselves.
PISCES (FEBRUARY20-MARCH20)
Whatever work projects that have been sitting around and gathering dust, tackle them. They are ready for your attention and dispatch, Pisces. Clean off your desk of any stressful to-dos and find more ways of achiev- ing harmony, calm and balance. Your mind is expansive and your ideas are creative and successful. Now relax.
ARIES (MARCH21-APRIL20)
You are popularity plus now, Aries. That means that whatever creative inspiration charges you up, you will not only launch it with gusto, you will also have a parade of admirers helping you out. Get your mind focused
on fun, frivolity and flirtation. This combination not only leads to greater camaraderie but also possible romance.
TAURUS (APRIL 21-MAY 21)
Family takes on an entirely new and fun vibe, Taurus. Find more ways to bring relatives together and make home a place of sanctuary, love and affection. Plan a reunion, reach out to those who you may not have heard from in a while and otherwise make your surroundings more beautiful.
