Horoscopes

For Friday, March 17

Those with birthdays today: You have a great time doing whatever you need to do this year. Your sense of accomplishment and knowledge come through despite others’ abilities to close a door on some of your ideas. What will separate you from many is your ability to bounce back no matter what challenges you hit. Bosses and those in charge can be very demanding. If you are single, being in a relationship might be overly important and be at the basis of many decisions. Trust in your desirability. If you are attached, your relationship takes a new direction, though often the two of you might not agree. SCORPIO opens the windows of your mind.
