Horoscope: Tuesday, Jun 22

Today you might spend a lot of time with the special person in your life, Aries. Romance and affection are definitely a powerful factor in the course of your day, but much of what might bring you closer together is conversation. You're likely to exchange information that interests you both about specific subjects and yourselves and future plans. A short journey might also take place. Enjoy your day!

Over the next day or two you will realize that so many of the things you have been worrying about are simply not worth the time or the effort. Once you understand that you will find it much easier to focus on what is of real importance.

Do what makes you happy today, not what makes other people happy. Despite what friends and loved ones might want you to think they are quite capable of looking after themselves and don’t really need you to put a smile on their face.

Today it's important that you make your own decisions and stick with them, Gemini. Much as you prefer to depend on others, your judgment really is best. You'll be paralyzed if you think only of how others will react to your decisions. You do know what is best, and everyone will benefit when you act on your beliefs. This is no time to be wishy-washy. Just do it.

A dispute of some kind may be upsetting but in the long-term it will work itself out, so don’t let it get you down mentally. What happens during the early part of next week will show there was precious little to get worked up about.

Why is it that whatever you say or do others seem to take it the wrong way? Is it their fault? Or is it your fault? Whatever the causes it’s the consequences you need to look out for. Don’t let a minor dispute escalate into a major disagreement.

You won’t hesitate to take a few risks this week and almost certainly they will work out for the best. If there is any doubt at all in your mind just ask a trusted friend for their opinion. They may be able to see pitfalls that you have missed.

You are strongly advised not to make any new plans for the coming weekend as you have too much on your plate already. If an authority figure asks you to take on extra responsibilities you must turn them down. You’ll be the loser if you do not.

You will be put to the test during the early part of the week. People in positions of authority need to find out if you can handle the pressure that comes with leadership responsibilities. Stay calm and do what feels right. You’ll survive, and thrive.

This could be a tense time for you and you may have to deal with someone who is determined to annoy you. If you value your independence you must stand up to them. Chances are they are not nearly as tough as they try to appear.

You need to give up on some sort of personal vendetta. You may find it hard to forgive and forget but on this occasion you have no choice: if you don’t move on, it could have a damaging effect on both your relationships and your career.

If someone tries to tell you that certain views and opinions are not allowed you must tell them to mind their own business. You are a free individual and you are free to think, speak and act as you see fit – within the law, of course.

The Sun joins Saturn and Pluto in the most materialistic area of your chart today, so you’ll need to give serious thought to the state of your finances. Cutbacks in some areas will be needed before you can start making gains in other areas.

You may end up being the peaceful savior that calms everyone down today, Capricorn. Use your artistic nature and love of beauty and harmony to inspire others to put away their differences and concentrate on the positive aspects. Generous acceptance of others is the only way to go, especially today, when people are riled up and ready to fight. Do your best to promote peace.

There is a strong possibility that partners, friends and even work colleagues will not be supportive of your plans today, but that’s okay. You had not intended to ask them for help so it really does not matter what they think. Go for it!

You will hear something you can benefit from this week, and you must take advantage of it. Don’t worry that you don’t seem to have done anything to deserve this good fortune because it’s simply not true. Nothing in the universe ever happens by chance.
