Horoscope

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Friday, July 27, 2012: This year others often think of you as the personality among your crowd. What they miss is your depth. That quality will become more dominant as time goes on. If single, meeting your match takes some talent, and you have some interesting adventures ahead this year. If attached, remember how important a friendship is to your bond. Nurture this quality, too. Scorpio can trigger you more than many other signs. A baby born today has a sun in Leo and a moon in Scorpio if born before 10:18 p.m. Afterward, the moon will be in Sagittarius.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) • • • • You might wonder why someone is so pushy. Think again with detachment, and the answer will become evident.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) • • • • • Remain clear about what you want, and ask for just that. In a problematic relationship, you might feel as if a talk heals the situation.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) • • • • • Understand what needs to happen for you to finish a project before you relax. Do not hesitate to follow through and complete several other pending matters.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) • • • You might not want to reveal what is on your mind. Perhaps you are not exactly sure of your thoughts and need to give yourself time to process them.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) • • • • Use the daylight hours to the max. You could have a very different opinion from many of the people around you.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) • • • • Pressure to perform at your highest ability could be more of a challenge than the activity itself. Let go of any worry and stress.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) • • • • Notice what someone might not be talking about. If you think about it, this omission has been fairly regular. Bluntly ask what is going on, but be as sensitive as possible.
