Astrology: Take a look at your daily horoscope
Happy birthday: for Thursday, March 12. This year, you manifest dual personalities. You can be extremely diplomatic and sensitive, yet other times you can be caustic, direct and demanding. Those around you never know which side they will encounter. You may find others erratic, perhaps in response to you. If single, your romantic side loves to connect and likes all the special touches. If attached, your sweetie understands your personality and temperament. His or her response to hardness comes with understanding and caring. SCORPIO can be insightful but difficult.
Aries (March 21-April 19): ★★★ You could feel challenged by a situation early in the day. A close loved one or associate could be involved. Work out this issue through one-onone conversations. You will feel much better once you do. Tonight: A quiet night for two.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): ★★★★★ Relate more directly with those in your life. That special ‘’hello’’ or asking about someone’s feelings can smooth out a more challenging interaction. The unexpected occurs. You could be quite reactive. Tonight: Say yes to a fun invitation.
