For Thursday, Oct. 25, 2012:

This year you can be fiery, which causes others to distance themselves. Is this a habit you really want to form? If you are single, you have a throng of potential mates to choose from. If you are attached, reveal more of your emotional side, and you will note a greater responsiveness.
