Don't be ashamed; if s just a phase of the journey toward wisdom. You're getting there. TAURUS If you can't get a raise, maybe you can improve your benefits. It’s worth a try, and it's worth making a few phone calls. You're very per suasive now. GEMINI How can a charming conversationalist like yourself become awkward and tongue tied? Don't sweat it. Let the oth ers do the talking and they'll think you're brilliant. CANCER You're enormously creative now. You have to be, or you'd be totally inundated. Learn to delegate and you'll be headed for your next million. LEO Be careful - your ideal ism is about to carry you away. New changes seem perfect, but are they practical? Keep a lid on expenditures. VIRGO It might seem as if you never have enough time any more. Loved ones understand, so keep at a tough job until you get it finished. LIBRA You can learn whatev er you don't know. You might not know it all, but knowing you, you know more than they think you do. SCORPIO Look for ways to in crease your income without in creasing your output. Amazingly, that becomes possi ble over the next few days. SAGITTARIUS Your ability to communicate is still lagging the awesome insights you're re ceiving. This is OK, you'll be called to teach soon enough. Take notes if you must. CAPRICORN Your mind might be racing a mile a minute. Don't ask your body to keep up. Hide away in a private place for some serious contemplation. You might discover that you want to change direction. AQUARIUS You're an excel lent team player, and with good reason. You get much farther, faster, that way. Call a meeting and outline new plans. PISCES Some of the orders you receive might not make much sense. But they do make sense, from a bigger perspective. Trust an honest, wise leader, and you'll get to the right place.
