SUMMERTIME OF 2002 FOR GEMINI:
You’ve got your sights set on a fast-paced year, and as long as the people you love can keep up with you, romance will stay a part of that plan. You’re though with pining for someone. It’s wonderful to have someone to share your life with, but now you’re too concerned about getting some big things accomplished to worry about that. Couples who have been in and out of love are back on in June, and by August, a commitment will be made either way. Capricorn and Taurus have what you want, and you could confuse love with a quest for the kind of achievement these signs are currently enjoying. Aries is a wiling mate. Virgo exerts more control over you than you’d like this year, but Scorpio goes with whatever you want. Cancer and Sagittarius take the cake when it comes to p resenting you with obstacles to peace, love and understanding, but you love a challenge. Leo gets under your skin, but is it love or infatuation? Libra’s got it bad for you, and you love the attention. Another Gemini is, simply but, too much. You won’t find a more passionate partner in Pisces, but Aquarius is your soul mate. Enjoy passionate romance.
