Today’s daily horoscope for June 17, 2024

The Hero’s Return

Venus and Mercury are heralds in a procession as they call for a parting of the cosmic crowd in honor of the upcoming summer solstice. All this action in Cancer, the realm of home, recalls the feeling of the heroes returning after a long, arduous journey. Whatever was won or lost doesn’t matter. Returning to the open arms of home is the ultimate victory.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Deliver on the expectation and they’ll be the usual amount of grateful. For some people, this is a lot; for others, it’s not. Play with the expectation and you’ll get a different response. You’ll also find out more about their true character.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Don’t try and weigh the negatives against the positives today because even if these things did have actual weights, you wouldn’t know which fit into what category. It will only be knowable once time, attitude and application have had their say.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). The value you give doesn’t have to be all created by you. Your network of friends is one of your greatest treasures and is shareable, too. You’ll help others exchange expertise. You’ll be a connector.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Keeping track won’t be helpful, but it will be very helpful to stay aware and responsive. This is more like a dance than a march. In a march, you can count steps needed to reach a destination. In a dance, the number of steps is irrelevant to the effect.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). There’s no need to persuade anyone with words because most of your influence comes from being an attractive individual. People from all walks of life will be comfortable around you as you adjust to mirror them and meet them.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Someone finds you intriguing, though of course you’re not trying to be. You’re just minding your own business. You can’t help that the more focused and immersed you are on the task, the more fascinating you become.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You don’t like feeling that anything has control over you, which is why you rebel hard against any habit, occurrence or person who seems to limit your freedoms or experiences. You’ll liberate yourself from the bind.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). In many endeavors, you must start at the beginning, but today’s work is more like a relay. The flame was lit miles and miles away, but you’ll meet it where you are and carry it but a short while before you pass it to the next willing hand.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Magicians don’t tell who shouldn’t reveal secrets because it will impact the act of all the other magicians; unless you actually are a magician, this does not apply today. Sharing will help. Everyone will learn from one another.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). A short, invigorating diversion will boost your mood, clear your mind and stimulate your intuition, too. As you pay attention to sights, sounds and smells, your inner world will stir. New information pops to light, strange and significant.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Hopes are high around you. You’re the realist who wants things like evidence, contracts, assurances, and most of all you want to know the history. You are excellent at reading patterns you will predict accordingly.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). People connect in the soft parts of their hearts. Those are the vulnerable parts. You can’t make that connection without being vulnerable. On some level, you have to agree to get hurt.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (June 17). Love improves everything — your health, fitness, mood and attitude. You’ll embrace struggle, savor triumph and invite beauty to linger as long as possible. You’ll take on an endeavor that turns the mundane into a wonder. More highlights: You’ll make excellent snap decisions. Your name will be prominent in the credits. Assignments send you on bold explorations. Sagittarius and Libra adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 1, 24, 11, 5 and 17.
