(May 6-May 20) -- You are in a position that allows you to demand more than usual of friends and loved ones. Take care, however, that you don't wield that power indiscriminately.

GEMINI (May 21-June 6) -- You may have to reach out to someone to help you through a difficult situation -- but the best person for the job isn't who you think it is!
