For Friday, April 28

Those with birthdays today: You embody unusual magnetism and get-up-and-go this year. Often, others will seek you out for answers and solutions. Pick your battles, interests and goals, because it would be a shame to scatter this positive energy. Confusion could surround a domestic or personal matter, possibly because you don’t want to see the facts. If you are single, you will meet many people who could be alluring. Ultimately, you will need to decide on someone you can relate to and who can give you the type of relationship you want. If you are attached, you will enjoy your bond if you allow your sweetie to be more creative and open. Don’t always demand to have things your way. TAURUS reads you cold.
