For Monday, March 12

Those with birthdays today: You have a way of setting precedent this year. You will change your direction and possibly reinvent yourself. You need to understand what a dynamic and special year you are entering. Think in terms of having your professional and personal images head in a new direction. You might not always have control. If you are single, a relationship will develop through a friendship. Be aware that you might not be able to juggle both. If you are attached, your relationship blossoms to a new level. Let it happen. The two of you will be much happier as a result. CAPRICORN proves to always be a friend.
