Horoscope

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Monday, Jan. 9, 2012: You often find yourself juggling various interests. You wonder whether you should do what you want to do or what you think is correct. If single, you could make a new friend a little crazy with these alternating mood swings. If attached, walk in your sweetie’s footsteps to understand his or her reactions. Cancer can be challenging and very emotional. A baby born today has a sun in Capricorn and a moon in Cancer until 8:35 p.m. Pacific time, when the moon enters Leo.
