­For Thursday, Jan. 12:

You work on a different level from many other people, especially this year. Your intuition evolves, allowing greater understanding. If you are single, you could meet someone quite spectacular in your day-to-day travels. If you are attached, the two of you connect on a very different mental plane. Virgo can be irritating at times.
