Horoscopes

For Thursday, July 14

Those with birthdays today: This year, you might often find yourself juggling your personal life with your professional life. You will put in extra hours to gain what you want in the public arena. Your home life proves to be a source of pleasure and happiness. Sometimes self-imposed pressure makes you feel like pulled taffy. Take time to center yourself, or learn ways to let off steam. If you are single, you want someone to share your life with. From winter on, a very special person could enter your life. If you are attached, your need for nesting plus an increased libido could stoke the fires of love. LIBRA understands you.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)
