For Friday, May 29:

This year, you become a ferocious debater or defender of a cause. Confusion often surrounds your words if spoken too quickly. Do know when to pull back. Simplicity works. If you are single, someone quite dreamy and different could enter your life. If you are attached, you might want to discuss that very special trip. Leo is always fun.
