Horoscope

For Sunday, July 25, 2004. Those with birthdays today: Maintain your calm, especially with those close to you. You might often feel that others play control games — and you might be right. How dare they challenge the powerful Lion? The only way to win is not to play. Work on that ability. Your family life and domestic matters become very important to your well-being. Others, especially partners and close friends, often stimulate your imagination. One specific person, who might be very artsy or unpredictable, but exciting, cannot be depended on. If you are single, be careful about your choices. You will tumble into a very intense but difficult relationship. If you are attached, learn to go with the flow more often.
