Horoscope: June 25, 2013

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You want to help a friend but are not sure quite how to accomplish this. Start by asking the magic words, "Is there anything I can do to make you feel better?"

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Having an overblown idea of their current capabilities is not appealing in others. Work with the straight shooters and those who are inclined to under-promise.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). In order to stay open to a flood of intuition, agree not to rely solely on the navigation of your mind and logic.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). You'll have the opportunity to bring your work to a new crowd or mingle outside of your usual setting. Don't worry about fitting in, it's better that you don't.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You sense that much is riding on your decisions, and you're right. So, take time to reflect on issues that have far reaching consequences, especially to the people around you.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Instead of taking an intellectual approach today, invite whimsy and wonder to inform you.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). When doubt pulls at you like a riptide, don't try and struggle against it. Instead agree, "Yes, maybe I won't be able to do this, but I'm going to try anyway." SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Many of the choices you've made worked out brilliantly despite being impulsive or intuitive. Follow your next instinct.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Waiting for inspiration or motivation will prove to be a waste of time. Move even when you are not motivated, and you'll get the same good result.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Alleviate the pressure on you. Cancel an appointment or sell something that requires more maintenance than it is worth. Simplification leads to happiness.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You won't always make the kind of impression you want to make, but you often make an unintended good impression when you're not even trying. It evens out in the end.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You'll be guided by a profound curiosity. What a person wants to talk about will tell you more than you could learn with specific questions.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (June 25). Your optimism is attractive, and new relationships will spark up in July. Research and investigation will flourish in August, and you'll settle a mystery. Good fortune comes through your efforts to entertain others in September and December. Female friendships factor into your success in the first part of 2014. Sagittarius and Scorpio adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 4, 11, 24, 39 and 30.
