For Thursday, March 24

Those with birthdays today: You are unusually strong-willed and sure of yourself this year. Your work, productivity and community commitments star as major areas of success. You will need to let go of rigidity and open up to new types of thinking. If you don’t, you could stop yourself from gaining the rewards you deserve. Your family might be touchy or difficult at times. Learn to relate more effectively. Others often seek you out for advice. If you are single, you will easily meet people this year. Just don’t lose sight of that special person. He or she could be the one. If you are attached, your efforts will draw this bond even closer. VIRGO is coolly efficient.
