For Friday, Jan. 11:

You have unusual insight. Your confidence builds this year. You have energy and Lady Luck on your team. Is there anything else you might like to ask for? You are in the beginning of a new 11-year life cycle. If you are single, it will be your choice to remain alone. If you are attached, add your newfound spunk and happiness to your bond. Pisces loves to visit with you.
