Horoscope

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Friday, July 26, 2013: This year you develop a new understanding of the value of a partnership in your life. Though you can be very hard on this person – and vice versa – you also thrive because of each other’s honesty and knowledge. This bond might not be romantic, but it is significant. If single, you could meet someone very special. Resist putting this person on a pedestal, because he or she eventually will fall off. If attached, spend more quality time with your sweetie. He or she flourishes with your time and attention. Aries adores hanging out with you. A baby born today has a sun in Leo and a moon in Pisces if born before 2:29 p.m. Afterward, the moon will be in Aries.
