Daily Horoscope for Monday, June 28, 2004

Moon Alert

We have the All Clear to shop or make important decisions today until 8:45 p.m. EDT.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

With all this focus on home and family, you need a break. Try to buffer yourself from the world with more privacy. A lot of childhood memories and thoughts about family dynamics fill your mind now. You need some serious downtime to sort this out. A little clarity please.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Increased time spent with siblings and relatives is particularly relevant to you now. Don't kid yourself by hiding in your busy-ness. Actually, you can learn a lot about yourself by what you see reflected back to you everyone else's eyes. (They have to take their shade off.)

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Your increased focus on spending (and perhaps on how to earn money as well) is actually a symptom of a deeper concern you have now. You're trying to sort out your values. You don't want to end up at the big finishing line knowing you put your money on the wrong horse. Oh no.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

The Sun, Saturn and Mercury are in your sign. God's in Her heaven and all's right with the world. About 14 years ago, you went through some struggles. However, whatever you began then is either obviously successful or obviously not. But at least you know now.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

One of the toughest parts of letting go and streamlining your life is the sheer logistics of how to do it. There's a lot of stuff to get rid of. You can't run for the gold if you're weighed down with garbage, especially unnecessary baggage. Therefore, you have to lighten up -- literally.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

This is a good day to scrutinize your closest friendships. Do you have any? (Forgive that crack, you set me up for it.) Friendships are so important studies indicate that they affect our health. Make a date to see your closest friend. Tell this person, how much you care.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Time spent with parents or authority figures (this includes weak bosses and inane supervisors) is meaningful now. Be direct about what your expectations are, and what you think you can deliver to your job or to the relationship. No waffling. Tell it like it is.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

It's true when they say, "It's easier to give than to receive." (This especially applies to criticism and advice.) One offshoot of this month's Venus transit is a gentle domino effect out there in the ether, which encourages the universe to be more generous with you. Will you accept?

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

The ripple effect of this month's Venus transit will be felt in your life for a long time. The bottom-line is it will improve your closest friendships and partnerships. Now you see who to trust. You see who you want on your speed dial. You are loved! (Feels good, doesn't it?)

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

With the Sun, Mercury and Saturn sitting 180 degrees opposite your sign, you have to know which way to jump. This doesn't mean people are opposing you (but they might); it means you're deciding who you're going to take along for the ride.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Your personal discovery of how talented you are has ignited many things. So many possibilities! However, for you to tap into your dreams in an effective, productive way -- you need food in the fridge and clean laundry. You have to get your act together. Get to it.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Romance, parties, the arts, theatre, professional sports, (yes, this includes ping-pong), vacations and wonderful getaways are what it's all about for you now. The theme this month is fun, pleasure and creativity. Can you handle it?

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actor John Cusack(1966) shares your birthday. You're entertaining, humorous and witty. Others love your acerbic observations. Actually, you're a shrewd observer of the human condition. At times, your need for appreciation and acknowledgment provokes you to shock others. It's important to work hard this year because your rewards will come in 2005-06. Keep at it.
