Horoscope

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Saturday, Aug. 18, 2012: This year you might be unusually focused on your financial well-being. Perhaps you see a new path open up and decide to walk down it. A friend or loved one also might offer a different approach. If you are single, a friendship is significant to a key relationship. You could meet someone through a friend, or the very nature of a friendship could change. If attached, the two of you become an even stronger entity. Virgo can be so fussy! A baby born today has a Sun in Leo and a Moon in Virgo.
