Horoscope

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Friday, July 29, 2011: This year, you see life from a renewed, dynamic perspective. You might be accused of being one-sided, but your ideas have strength, energy and power behind them. If single, your charisma soars. If attached, the two of you might have a conflict. Remember, a relationship is a two-way street. Try to identify with your significant other more often. A fellow Leo also likes the limelight. A baby born today has a Sun in Leo and a Moon in Cancer if born before 11:16 p.m. Pacific time. If the baby is born in the last 44 minutes of the day, he or she will have a Moon in Leo.
