Horoscopes: Walking a tightrope

Horoscopes:
Walking a tightrope
By Imhotep
As the enchanting month of June draws to a close, my dear Crabs, as people born under the Cardinal Water sign of Cancer (22 Jun-22 Jul) are sometimes called, strangers will come your way.
Crabs will find themselves very much drawn to people they had not noticed before. Take it easy and try to win them over to your side by using sweet and reassuring words. Look extra close at things and listen to what people say very carefully -- there's an awful lot of information present in even the smallest of details. Investigate and uncover the hidden meaning.
You are prone to daydreaming these days, my dear Crabs. And, who can blame you? A certain someone is occupying an increasingly large place in your thoughts, and heart. Just remember to eat, sleep and brush your teeth. Feel like you can't get around like you used to? Maybe you just need a change of scenery to give you back some of your former vigour.
The object of your obsession apparently thinks of flirting as a kind of sport. It can be fun to play flirtatious games with someone you fancy. But, try not to let it drive you bananas. Trust your intuition. No matter what everyone else says, you have a sense for this particular person.
Clamp on some earphones and listen to a pleasant love song, my dear Lions, as people born under the Fixed Fire sign of Leo (23 Jul- 22 Aug) are sometimes called. And, sing along. You, my dear Lions, will have a pretty busy, blurry and crazy month in June. So, for the time being, concentrate on getting things done instead of criticising yourself and others.
You know that you are walking a tightrope: one slip would mean losing all credibility. Watch your step.
And, by the way, the thing that's so great about this person you're interested in is that spending time around them doesn't make you nervous. It's pure fun. You haven't experienced that in a long time.
If, on the other hand, someone is being uncooperative and they're absolutely essential to your plans, whatever you decide to do, please don't try to run at them like a ferocious lion on the chase.
You've done a lot of things and met a lot of people recently, my dear Virgoans, as people born under the Mutable Earth sign of Virgo (23 Aug-22 Sep) are sometimes called. Start thinking about planning a trip somewhere exotic.
Luck is on your side. If you are taking a gamble on something, there's a strong chance it will pay off. Get ready for tons of accolades and attention. And, maybe even a congratulatory kiss.
Your detractors might have the upper hand at the moment, but you will get back at them in the end. Don't even bother scolding them now. There's no way you can win. Someone else's emotions are in play. Your best bet is to offer advice that you know can help, and then step aside gracefully. Let them make their decision.
Rely on your intellect. Your emotions might well be all over the place, not for any reason in particular. Someone will ask you for advice and it will flatter you.
It is hard to focus at the moment, but give yourself a break. You're making a good impression. Relax.
Indeed, it might be time to ask someone to put in a good word for you. A little PR wouldn't hurt.
Now you can take a load off your shoulders and enjoy doing absolutely nothing. Take time to dream about your ideal partner. It would be such a pity to let something this good to waste. If the time's not right, don't fret. Just put that idea away for a rainy day. Like a fine wine or mature cheese, the ageing process might actually improve it.
