Mercury gives Jupiter a lucky handshake, then leads the way to Cancer with Jupiter hot on the trail. These cosmic omens of good fortune align word and deed, walk and talk. Life is so much simpler when we can trust ourselves and others to say as we do and do as we say. The easiest way to accomplish it, of course, is truth, integrity and follow-through.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You're not just courageous in a way that gets you through the day. You're courageous in a way that builds your world. You're doing so much physically, emotionally and creatively. Give yourself more credit for all you take care of in a day.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You're more likely to follow through on your intentions when you understand what you're feeling. Unacknowledged emotions can drive your actions in ways you don't expect. The better you know yourself, the better you steer your life.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Instead of sticking to what's safe or familiar, you'll experiment -- and even if the outcome isn't perfect, the process will energize you. The excitement comes not just from doing something new but from being someone who's willing to try.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Of course you have apprehensions about getting close to someone. To learn and be learned by another is joy, pain, awkwardness, beauty and everything in between. Relationships will be worth the risk.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You want to help but you feel unsure how to direct that energy. Instead of defaulting to the obvious task, consider that maybe your most useful contribution is something more specific, personal or creative -- something only you can do.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Novelty and stimulation are basic human needs, and today you'll feel their pull. Risk invites you in -- not recklessly but with purpose. You'll navigate a precarious situation with skill, and the rush of adrenaline will tell you you're alive.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Your ideal goal shouldn't be too safe or too outlandish but right at the edge of what could be possible. Growth and meaningful outcomes happen -- not in the comfort zone, and not in pure fantasy, but in that daring in-between space.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Environment matters just as much as effort. You're motivated, but it's hard to stay consistent when surrounded by distractions, clutter or chaos. Clear the path -- physically, mentally, emotionally -- so your energy isn't pulled away from what matters.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). The routine is good until you become numb to it. That's when it needs a nudge of alertness, ideally in the form of inspiration. When laughter bubbles up in a room of friends, or lightning strikes with desire, life wakes up.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). There's emotional dissonance to resolve. Get closure so your brain can stop looping back to the scene of the "crime." Seek understanding and you'll find it, as well as a fresh framing of the past and a sense of control to go with it.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You'll act first, understand later. Gut-level decisions, hunches and unexplained attractions may feel impulsive or confusing, but later, when the dust settles, you'll trace the logic. The deeper "why" reveals itself through hindsight.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). People process stress differently. Some are highly expressive. If they feel discomfort, the world hears about it. Others endure quietly, sometimes to their own detriment. Because you want to help, you're paying attention to how people frame and express difficulty.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (June 8). The responsibility you shouldered alone in the past will give you a deep appreciation for the abundance coming to you -- resources, tools and the support you dreamed of. A close and soulful bond will be cause for celebration all through the year. More highlights: You'll finish a mountain of a project, and with great pride and a financial reward more than expected. You'll establish a new practice that gives you physical vitality. Capricorn and Cancer adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 6, 18, 30, 24 and 11.

CELEBRITY PROFILES: The work of architect Frank Lloyd Wright continues to be celebrated, renovated, displayed, studied, lived in and in the recent case of a rare double-pedestal table lamp, auctioned for record-breaking millions. A trendsetting Gemini, Wright was born under the Virgo moon of perfectionism and details. His legacy of mastery lives on in over 800 buildings around the world. Echoing the very Gemini-esque ethos of communication and connection, Wright suggested, "If you foolishly ignore beauty, you will soon find yourself without it."
