Horoscopes

For Friday, June 18, 2004. Those with birthdays today: Your ability to express yourself precisely and dramatically separates you from the crowd. Others stand back and listen. Consider that you have the ability to mesmerize others, and use this gift for the common good. You come from a place where security remains a high priority, especially your family life and property investments. If you are single, love will knock on your door in the cooler months. Could this person be “the one”? If you are attached, indulge your sweetie more often. The relationship will benefit from extra tenderness and thoughtfulness.
