What kind of day will today be? To find out what the stars say, read the forecast given for your birth sign. For Thursday, September 13, 2018

ARIES (March 21 to April 19)

Today you will encounter confusion at work. Someone might accidentally deceive you, or this person could deceive you on purpose. Be aware of this. That's because Mercury, the planet of communication, is opposite fuzzy Neptune. Yikes!

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20)

Romance might be discouraging today. Remember: Unexpressed expectations almost always lead to disappointment. People can't read your mind.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20)

Family discussions might not be productive today because too much whining is taking place. Someone might have a big sob story. Of course you're sympathetic, but sometimes things get blown out of proportion.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22)

You will probably spend a lot of time daydreaming or lost in a fantasy world today. Don't worry, we all need days like this. Your imagination is in overdrive.

LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22)

Avoid important financial decisions today because you might be deceived about your facts or you could be confused. Things are not as they appear. Trust nothing.

VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22)
