For Friday, April 6

Those with birthdays today: “Think before you leap” needs to be your motto this year. Understand ramifications and long-term ideas. Clarity of mind will result in strong, successful actions. Even you might need to understand when to pull back or go on a new trail. You don’t hesitate to move forward often, but do stop and check that quicksand doesn’t lie ahead. Anger sometimes explodes within, and actions made from this head space frequently backfire. If you are single, you will meet people easily. Choose someone who is a bit different or offbeat. If you are attached, schedule a unique trip together. SAGITTARIUS helps you see the big picture.
