Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Something unusual or unexpected might impact your job, or possibly your health. Quite likely, it will be good news. It might be related to travel or dealing with a group or something that encourages you. It might even make you feel younger. (It might also be related to a pet.)

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
A sudden favor that is related to your job, your health or even your pet might occur today — out of the blue. It might be something very private, and only you know about it. Keep your eyes and ears open because it could be something that’s easy to miss. Be alert.

If Your Birthday Is Today

This is a year of service for you, especially to family. Therefore, take care of yourself. Perhaps it’s time for a makeover? Do something to personalize your home.
