For Monday, May 27, 2002. Those with birthdays today: Your interpersonal abilities help you relate to others in a style that might be stronger than usual. In fact, your popularity easily could overwhelm you. Through July, focus on making money and adding to your personal assets. During August, work on better communication and broadening your circle of friends and associates. If you are single, your social life will pick up in August, adding someone fun and rewarding to relate to. If you are attached, plan a special trip together for late summer. The planning phase proves to be as important as the trip. SAGITTARIUS can be challenging.
