As the Beatles sang, "You say goodbye, and I say hello." Spring ends, summer arrives today. Before the sun crosses the bridal threshold from loquacious Gemini into nurturing Cancer, he nods to Pluto, who kindly asks some of us to say so long and farewell to any attitude or experience inhibiting the summer sun from shining on in.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Your interest in a friend brings you into a new setting. Suddenly it's like you're playing a scene on a movie set; your role is clear. If you can stay up for it, a midnight conversation will be most revealing.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Your memory is fantastic, your logic solid. Try to also be graceful and forgiving. As for a sore subject between you and your friend, it would be kind and wise to leave it lying where it lies.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Many of your passing thoughts are untrue, and you needn't believe them. Distinguishing the valid from the false isn't the point. You move when you're moved. There is no struggle in deciding.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). You're not being asked to add to or improve upon anything, which brings about a strange feeling. The question, "What's next?" quickly turns into, "Who cares?" as you enjoy your loved ones and lose yourself in the night.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Your friends are also your fans now. That's because you're putting on a show of sorts. Anyone trying to find you need only follow the sounds of applause. This fabulous, heightened reality you create is quite an artistic feat.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (JUNE 20). You are respected by those whose opinions matter to you. Your all-embracing attitude promotes unity among warring forces over the next 10 weeks. However, peaceful notions give way to a fighting spirit in September when you take up a cause and rally for it. Beautiful people enter your world in October. Scorpio and Capricorn adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 30, 44, 32, 14 and 17.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Disruptive influences inspire you. It's fantastically lucky for you to be around those who push the boundaries of acceptable behavior. Naughty children, friends who like to be bad or anyone in your family should do just fine.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Your plan is sketchy. Don't change a thing. Out of the unplanned bits of the day grow the sweetest bursts of life. You'll feel lucky for stolen time with the one who keeps you laughing.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). The reason you make headway and the next person can't is simple — attitude. You want to share the best of what you have to give, all the while being open to learning how you can perfect your contribution.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You're trying to keep an open mind. Still, you can't resign yourself to approve of all you witness. Others would feel a whole lot better to get that stamp from you. You can always consider it again tomorrow.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You're on to something, and yet it's important not to get too ahead of yourself. Test your knowledge, ask experts and find out how others are doing the same thing you're attempting to do.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Build the argument for what you want, at least in your own head. Some of your reasons won't hold up. Looking deeply into your psyche, you'll find reasons that do, though.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). The money that supposedly makes the world go round will have to be someone else's cash now. You have a place picked out for yours, safe for the short term, lucrative for the long term. Stick with the budget.

WEEKEND LOVE FORECAST: ARIES: When you swallow your pride, you allow a misunderstanding with another to remain only that. TAURUS: Sharing your heart is a true service when they need to hear exactly what only you can tell them. GEMINI: You make a solid show of support to someone by backing up good intentions with substance. CANCER: It's your time to shine, and you're at your most luminous when surrounded by the people you love. LEO: Folks have conflicting needs for this weekend, but your upbeat enthusiasm leads everyone toward mutually satisfying goals. VIRGO: Another person's behavior seems a little off, but you model consistency, which helps them get clearer. LIBRA: People drop their troubles on your doorstep, but you play the part of counselor and advisor beautifully. SCORPIO: A domestic situation creates heat, helping you name and hammer out a satisfying solution. SAGITTARIUS: When you open to another, you share wide and deep. CAPRICORN: Allow out what you've been holding in. They can handle it. AQUARIUS: Someone pushes your buttons so you can respond with love and compassion. PISCES: Accept the help of others — they relish the chance to ably show you just how much they care.

COUPLE OF THE WEEKEND: With the sun and Venus in their sign right now, darling Cancer's personal charisma and charm is upped. If Cancer were to moonlight, say, one sign over, and visit her next-door neighbor, Leo, she'd find a receptive playmate. For as these two signs own the luminaries, the sun and the moon, they're also naturally, rhythmically matched. The Leo-Cancer connection feels right as rain.
