See what the planets have in store for you this month.

STAR CRAZY
By Danielle Dowling

GEMINI A love affair could reach critical mass this month, and the much ado might have you frothing neurotically. On the one hand, you’ll be the perfect picture of calm, acting more Zen than the Dalai Lama; on the other, you’ll be an insatiable, inconsolable banshee, screeching until you make your point or your vocal cords bleed—whichever happens first. But, hey, it’s not all bad: If you’ve been looking for fabulous fashion on the cheap, your bargain radar will be strong, especially on the 8th.

The Most Useful Item in Your Handbag: cold, hard cash

CANCER Go with your gut. Its heightened strength will lead you through the rough patches that will crop up at the beginning of the month. If you feel about ready to burst out of your skin, seek out a few of your favorite things to do—knitting, window-shopping, bungee-jumping, whatever gets you through the strife. With all the hubbub, you might find yourself prone to emotional spillage, so think before you speak.

LEO Watch those nails. They’re likely to break when you’re surging with this much energy. A gold-chain-laden little birdie with a Mohawk may whisper in your ear, “Slow down, fool.” And you’d be well advised to pay heed to his words. The lights along the road of life may all appear to be green, but drag-race through them and the cosmic cops will hand you with one helluva speeding ticket.

VIRGO So there’s this guy who lives down the block, or hangs out at that bar you like, or sits in the cubicle to the left of the watercooler, and there’s something powerfully attractive about him but also, well, equally odd. He could be a worthy hook-up or you could just be dazed from working too much. If the latter be true, and the stacks of files at the office has kept from tending to the stacks of dishes in your sink, you’ll be spurred to conquer the house cleaning on the weekend of the 10th.

LIBRA Your daily grind needs a shot in the arm. So revamp your inner vamp. Hustle your butt to the makeup counter and try out some new colors. Heat up your wardrobe with some lower cuts and higher hems. Hell, check out that tantric sex workshop that you’ve been interested in. All this makeover magic will pay off at the end of the month: Want love? Speak its name and it will come.

SCORPIO Friends, strangers, even a few Romans—you’ll be quick to lend an ear to anyone who needs to unload. But mid-month, hold the phone, Ann Landers, and focus on the chores you’ve been neglecting. Afterward, you can reward yourself with a spot of fun. The where and what won’t matter much; you’ll be able to entertain yourself and a group of your crankiest friends even if all of you were stranded on a 750-square-foot deserted island with nothing but a puny coconut tree.

SAGITTARIUS Like the Brady Bunch—that wisest of cabals—once sang, when it’s time to change, then it’s time to change. And you’re ready for an absolute upheaval, identifying and eliminating those old bad habits with the precision of a Tweezerman. But now that you’ve seen the light, please don’t trample the rest of us with your proselytizing. You might have the best intentions, but remember that’s what paves the road to hell.

CAPRICORN Need to nitpick yourself meticulously without fear of throwing your self-confidence into a nosedive? Well, then, a golden opportunity awaits. However, you may be so uncharacteristically distracted by the idea of playing beach blanket bingo with your friends that you might not be able to stay grounded long enough to start instituting the resulting reformation. Enlist a friend or an expert to help you keep on track and make sure you’re marching down the right path.

AQUARIUS Wouldn’t it be nice if you had a tighter butt, slimmer thighs, bigger lips, longer lashes, a chicer wardrobe, a walk-in closet, etc.? Of course it would, but would it bring you inner peace? That happily ever after you’ve always dreamed about? Uh, no, and deep down you know it’s true. But when your head’s orbiting Neptune, perspective is such a lonely word.

PISCES Lady Luck will be so accessible to you that you’ll feel as if you have a magic wand at your disposal. You’ll merely need to think of something and suddenly it’ll appear. Now if only you could wave that wand to regulate your mood swings. Try your best to strike an even emotional keel and don’t do anything Laura Bush wouldn’t do.

ARIES Is that steam coming out of your ears? It might look sexy under certain circumstances, but all the anger percolating inside you could likely twist your pucker into the foul face of fury—and think of the wrinkles that would leave. Just remember: Any setbacks you face right now, especially with that guy you’ve been after, are momentary and often serve to separate the frogs from the princes.

TAURUS Now is the time to figure out what and who it is you love—and, most important, what it is that you love about yourself. Put your methodical nature to good use. You can overhaul everything that’s been bugging you about your wardrobe, your relationships, and your career in a revolutionary way, but this chrysalis will require some time and careful planning before you emerge from it brand new.

Birthday Girl: Angelina Jolie (June 4)
Whoa! Talk about opposites attracting. You and Brad are all that and a bag of chips, astrologically speaking. This new millennium has put you through the ringer—what with Saturn moving through your sun sign and then your ascendant from 2001 to 2005 and Pluto trolling around your house of love for the past decade. But never fear ’cause Pluto will move on in a year or so. Besides, you seem to have come up through all the turmoil smelling like a rose garden. Now that the baby is born, you may want to invest in a personal trainer and target that baby weight ASAP; unfortunately, those born on June 4 are prone to weight gain as they get older. You might also be feeling a little cranky, and you may want to take it out on Brad (it was his sperm after all), but cut him some slack. And cut yourself some slack, too. Take a few weeks off. The world will still be around for you to save when you’re all refreshed and ready for action.
