Horoscopes

For Friday, Sept. 8

Those with birthdays today: Learn not to respond to an urge to spend or swallow anger. You need to deal with strong feelings that often play out. A partner or financial situation often is the trigger. You will need to grasp hold of your issues to maximize the good parts of your relationships. You have many opportunities, though you might have to rethink your approach. If you are single, you will find meeting people easy. Once hitched, working through the dynamics could take patience and talent. Think before ditching someone; no relationship will be a snap this year. If you are attached, you will have distinct views on money or other emotionally charged issues. ARIES understands you well.
