A baby born todayhas a Sun in Taurus and a Moon in Virgo.

Happy birthday for Wednesday April 25, 2018:
This year your ability to work through problems while dealing with withdrawn people in your environment soars. Know that you don’t always hear the whole story from others. You’ll want to do some more research on your own. If you are single, you are in a banner period for love and romance. You could meet someone of significance in the months ahead. If you are attached, the two of you will experience the ups and downs of romance. The intensity between you and your sweetie could overwhelm you at times. VIRGO often puts in his or her two cents.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult

ARIES (March 21-April 19)

An emotional loved one or a financial problem could greet you at the end of the day. What you can be sure of is that you do not have the whole story yet, which could be considerably different from what you are hearing now. Tonight: Free up some time for yourself.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

Your creativity soars, so allow yourself to go with the flow. Feel free to change your plans. Someone at a distance could be projecting some negativity onto you in a discussion. Do not take any comments personally. Tonight: Take a midweek break, and indulge a little.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

If you can, work from home; you’ll feel more centered. Deal with a discontented loved one, and know that the issue might have very little to do with you. Do your best to avoid being dragged down by a touchy situation. Tonight: Immerse yourself in the events around you.

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

Drum up some diplomacy when trying to express what you are thinking. Someone close to you could be somewhat negative right now. Remain upbeat, and know that you have a strong basis for asking for what you want. Tonight: Meet up with some friends for dinner and drinks.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

You are confident and full of ideas. Don’t be surprised if someone attempts to sabotage your efforts. Fatigue could interfere, which might cause your thinking to stray into odd realms. Instead of being confused, note the wild ideas that emerge. Tonight: Invite a friend out with you.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Don’t underestimate how important it is to stand up for yourself. You could have difficulty coming to an understanding with someone else, as you both seem to be constantly changing your ideas. Think carefully before making any comments. Tonight: All smiles.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Open up to changes, knowing that some might be uncomfortable. Use good sense around your roommates and/or family. You could decide to change certain circumstances, depending on the feedback you get. You have patience; use it to your benefit. Tonight: Vanish, if possible.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Demonstrate your ability to make your dreams a reality. You might feel as if you can pull white rabbits out of a black hat. Communication could have a stilted quality to it. Perhaps the less said for now, the better. Friends surround you. Tonight: Zero in on what you want.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Pressure builds to perform on a certain level. Know that you will meet others’ expectations. Do not push or pressure yourself financially. You will be OK, no matter what obstacles you encounter. Confusion marks the moment, so be clear and concise. Tonight: As you like it.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

You could be negative without intending to be. You generally become less judgmental when you are not under pressure. Look at situations from an observer’s perspective, and you will gain a unique insight that can only help you in the long run. Tonight: Wherever there is great music.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Deal with a partner directly, and have an important discussion on a one-on-one level; you will be happier with the results. In any case, an element of confusion seems to surround you. Avoid making any big decisions until the fog clears. Tonight: Go along with the moment.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

A friend who has been distant as of late will have a lot to share with you. Be aware of what is going on around you. You might not realize how much of a haze of uncertainty often stems from conversations and interactions with you. Tonight: Listen to someone else’s suggestion.
