Happy Birthday: Money matters are a highlight this year. Invest in yourself, your surroundings and your health, not in joint ventures or shared expenses.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Develop a talent or skill that is forward-thinking and fitting for this moment. Be abrupt if that’s what it takes to get others on board. A change will lift you momentarily, but it will be short-lived if you overspend. 5 stars
