Taurus, you are a strong-willed lover. You are protective of your love bond with your partner and can also at times be inflexible.
Call your partner and talk about the situation whenever it comes to mind. When you both are on the same page, you will finally accept your circumstances and learn to adapt.
Gemini (May 21 - June 20)
Gemini, you are good at communication with your partner, but you can also be inconsistent at times.
During social distancing, this can turn into something that puts a serious strain on your relationship.
