Horoscopes

For Saturday, July 12, 2003. Those with birthdays today: Frequently, you need to defer to others. You will learn to juggle your needs with that of others, but the key will be understanding others. You learn to walk in others’ shoes. You could be unusually tired at times. Make sure you get enough sleep and take good care of yourself. If you are attached, sometimes your mate plays devil’s advocate. Be grateful for his or her ability to reflect others’ views, rather than becoming defensive. If you are single, you will meet many people this year, especially after August.
