For Wednesday, July 11

Those with birthdays today: You need a strong sense of direction this year, as frequently you daydream away. Evaluating and considering might be part of the process in life, but spending your entire day at this point is not effective. Many opportunities that greet you this year need immediate action, otherwise they will dissolve. Be less moody and take a risk or two. Relationships in general work better in 2008. Are you single? Someone special could be heading your way. If you think too much, he or she could move on! Just date and find out what is there. Attached Cancers, let a more decisive partner call the shots! GEMINI can be unnerving.
