Horoscopes

For Thursday, Sept. 4, 2003. Those with birthdays today: Sometimes you have a difficult time sorting through what is and isn’t important. Strong decisions will come your way if you float with temporary indecision. Don’t push yourself too hard, and recognize your limits. Work demands unusual attention, as does your personal life. If you are single, you’ll have a sudden opportunity to start a very special relationship. Ultimately, it will be your call as to which way to let this bond develop. If you are attached, avoid petty disagreements that could easily develop into power plays. Your relationship will grow if you don’t lock horns.
