Horoscopes

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Saturday, June 9, 2018:

This year you are a bundle of energy. Curb a tendency to jump from one topic or project to another. You could create a lot of confusion for yourself and others that way. If you are single, you will attract someone who enjoys your energy and movement. Before making any commitments, make sure you know each other well. If you are attached, your significant other might have difficulty keeping up with you. Slow down a bit, and your sweetie will appreciate the effort. Aries knows how to get you fired up.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
