Horoscopes

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Tuesday, Feb. 6, 2018: This year you will open up to many new changes. However, in some areas you could become quite rigid and stuck. Consider other possibilities more than you have in the recent past. Confusion and uncertainty often surround you before you make any major decisions. If you are single, many people admire you, but few feel as though they can handle your intensity. Fall 2018 will be unusually exciting, as a new romance is likely to enter your life. If you are attached, work on the friendship that exists between you and your sweetie. Plan a special getaway together. Scorpio is more insightful than usual. The stars show the kind of day you’ll have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult
