Cancer (June 21-July 22)

It’s Friday, and it’s a friendly day; nevertheless, you might choose to hide at home or play it low-key because that’s what you prefer. Your choice might be to kick back and relax with a favorite pastime. Nevertheless, physical interaction with groups will appeal.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
