For Friday, Feb. 24

Those with birthdays today: Often this year, you might not feel comfortable with what goes down. You need to consider all possibilities more carefully. How you deal with someone could radically change if you want to commit to growth and change. Review issues not as individual situations but as total, long-term indicators. You are forming a new life with a different status quo. If you are single, your life heads in a new direction as you expand your horizons. A foreigner could play a role. If you are attached, your relationship will bloom accordingly. Enjoy the moment. CAPRICORN helps you come out on top.
