Horoscopes: Tuesday, June 20, 2017

ARIES (March 21-April 19). There's a happiness that visits your mind in the embrace of warm notions. Then there's happiness of a different kind. It's visceral, and your whole body is involved. Could this become a lifestyle?

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). When you respond to one person in an eerily similar way as you did to another long ago, you recognize life's echoes. Discern reactions of the moment from those that have more to do with habit.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). There are gestures, and then there are grandstand plays. Know the difference. You'll witness some big personalities, so remember you always have a choice about what you buy into.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Recognize what you've got, and be keen to the timing of the thing. The more exciting something is, the shorter the shelf life. Enjoy it while it lasts.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Your secret wishes will gain magnetism. Your wants will get stronger. If necessity is the mother of invention, desire is the father. This is the day to direct your hunger more specifically.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). To be giving and warm is your nature, and many will be drawn to the comfort of your presence. You benefit from their nearness, too. It's all well and good until they start to compete for your attention, when it's best to withdraw.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). When you really adore a person, even the most mundane outing seems like a magnificent event. Today, you'll get a taste of this sort of giddy excitement.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). It's not that they don't count; it's just that when it comes to you, you're the expert. Assuming you're the only one you need to impress, what do you do?

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). There's a fine line in teaching. Mistakes must be addressed, but not in a heavy-handed manner. Criticism has a way of making people feel diminished and sometimes humiliated. The best teachers are sensitive to this.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Everyone has days in which their personal stock seems to fall, at least in relation to their own ideas of value. What will it take for you to see you're important?

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Your mind is like the muscles of your body: able to get stronger and also vulnerable to becoming overworked and injured. Work past your comfort zone but then back off to allow for recovery.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You need inspiration. That may require getting out to see something new and different. Or it may require doing less. Too much activity and too many choices reduce the impact of everything.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (June 20). You know your purpose, and you act on it. A strong female will guide, inspire and care for you. August shows you growing past prior limits. September will end a cycle and free you for adventure. Stay unencumbered a while. You've access to a luck factory at the end of 2017. Family will benefit from your good fortune. Aries and Taurus adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 5, 6, 22, 15 and 40.
