Horoscope

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Wednesday, Dec. 25, 2013: This year you often will be dealing with an assertive authority figure. Your career and community involvement become high priorities. If single, many people will be drawn to you. If you choose a person who wants to change you, the results might be less than desirable. Look for someone who accepts you for you. If attached, you create a lot of excitement on the home front. Libra does not have the same drive as you to get to the bottom of a problem. A baby born today has a Sun in Capricorn and a Moon in Libra.
