Today’s Horoscope
Today produces a strong and
independent character, capable of
attending to its own business and
very desirous of so doing. It is
better to let such people alone, as
opposition breeds a tendency to
be unjust. There may be an im
pulse to travel, and often success
conies in foreign lands. If these
natures are turned in the proper
direction they produce valuable
results.
