This June moon in Aries could be renamed "The Moxie Moon," as she crosses the sky with a brazen spirit, sprinkling chutzpah in her wake. Also, the sun angles responsible Saturn to bring a present to Gemini people celebrating their birthdays this time of year. The gift is big-time motivation and the organizational skills needed for getting life gloriously together.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Were you born this way, or did you become this way? The only rightful conclusion is: It doesn't matter. Embracing the you that you've become without further question is your best move yet.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). When was the last time you wrote a letter to a famous person or to someone who could change the laws and systems by which society abides? Reaching out today will be lucky for you.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). There's someone you feel drawn to talk with, and there is absolutely no reason why you shouldn't. Today is perfect. Sit down and tell this person what you're thinking.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). The only thing more delicious than a juicy opportunity is the ability to recognize it when it comes along. Street smarts, practicality and financial savvy will help you turn a profit.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). There is little between you and the one who has your heart; no gap to bridge or wound to heal, but maybe there's a phone call to make. Make it tonight after 7 p.m.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). The one you love is going through some drama that you may or may not be a part of. If you're separate from the angst, continue to stay as far away from it as you possibly can.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Be careful about telling people what you want to learn, because information has a way of expanding to the capacity of your curiosity. Bite-sized knowledge will delight you — but anything more and you're stuffed.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Reach out, and another person will reach toward you to close the space. Go forward, and you'll be accepted and embraced. Think the best of people, and your open mind and heart bring out the best, too.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Your original expectation of someone may have proved wrong, but all is not lost. This person will contribute something valuable and quite different from what you anticipated.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Learning gets frustrating. Not understanding as fast as you'd like, you may be tempted to quit. Better to take a breather than to make a rash decision.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You can be proud of the relationships you've built. You also know that friendship needs to be continually cared for. You'll give your personal life more attention, focusing on the friendships that inspire you.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). A minor adventure, like the adventure of buying groceries or getting to work, will lead to a more substantial journey in the weeks to come. Your attitude makes it so.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (June 13). You'll use your talent for choosing the perfect name for things and give your goals, projects and responsibilities a touch of magic. You'll love the groove you hit in your personal life over the next four weeks. Travel in July will be truly special. September brings a big sale. A family victory is also your own in January. Libra and Cancer people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 4, 12, 3, 33 and 18.

12 ASTRO-REMEDIES FOR SOCIAL AWKWARDNESS: Inside the energy of each sign is a lesson that can be applied to remedy social awkwardness. Leo's lesson in social graces can be summed up in three words: Less is more.

Ever the entertainer, Leo doesn't have to worry about coming across as boring. It's simply not an option. Leo's mind gravitates toward attention-grabbing and often provocative topics. Also, Leo has the subconscious agenda of behaving in a manner that others will find memorable if not funny and fascinating. To the lion, laughter and applause are the music of life. Given Leo's natural inclinations, appropriate socializing includes a great deal of self-control and internal editing.

The wise Leo stays socially in check, realizing the benefit of holding back. Not every story needs an answer story from the personal history archives. Listening is more important than talking. Holding space and seeming interested can be charming social moves. Being bigger than life can scare people. The party does not always need a star. You don't have to be a Leo to benefit from the principle of "less is more." Any sign can play it cool!

CELEBRITY PROFILES: A poster child for versatility, Tim Allen has played everything from an intergalactic superhero to Santa Claus, with a few middle-aged family men along the way. The one constant is that this Gemini with his natal Mars and Jupiter in Gemini, as well, is always funny. Allen's star continues to rise to infinity and beyond.
