Horoscopes

For Monday, Oct. 6, 2003:

Those with birthdays today: Try something totally different. The more open you are to different styles, the happier you will be this year. You might decide to train in another field or specialize even further in your chosen field. Use common sense with sports, as you might accident prone. If you are single, you might be too much into work to have time to develop a relationship. If you are attached, you need to share more of your work life with your sweetie. Pisces can drive a hard bargain.

The stars show the kind of day you’ll have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult
