Gemini
Give up on options that are past their expiration dates and look for new possibilities. Open windows and expand your investment horizons. If you have money to make money, there's always someone willing to talk. Your job is to determine what's real, a dream or a scam. Use your people skills as well as your business skills.

Cancer
Stand up for your rights as an investor, stockholder or trader. This isn't about playing hardball -- it's about fair treatment. Maybe it's time to use the regulations and laws surrounding all levels of finance. Wouldn't you rather rock the boat than go down with the ship? That's just a little perspective, not a prediction!

Leo
Offload some of the dead wood you're still carrying in your portfolio. Cancel a stalled transaction if there hasn't been any movement lately. Don't do any more financial housekeeping than you can finish in one day, but if you need to streamline your approach, make this day count. By tomorrow, you might need the funds you're freeing up.

Virgo
Avoid nonstandard offers and unsecured bids. If it doesn't follow the letter of the law, it's not worth the paper it's printed on. You're not here to get anyone else in trouble, you just want to be miles away when the deal goes down. Let the risk-happy investors laugh today, and remind them about it when you're laughing tomorrow.
