Horoscopes

Don't be nervous- I'm not one of those gullible suckers who calls Kenny Kingston and his psychic friends to hear all about my future. But I do think horoscopes can be right about some things. Basically this is only because they are so vague and they usually leave room for your imagination to roam. I think the stars and the planets do have some effect on our lives but nothing is set in stone.

The best way to predict the future is to create it.

Peter Drucker

Our lives aren't predetermined. Some things are meant to be and others are meant to be changed. The tough part is figuring out what you should believe and what you should blow off.
I'm an Aries and surprisingly I fit a lot of the characteristics given. You have to love being born in April: diamonds are a girl's best friend- lucky for me they're also my birthstone.


But for all you not fortunate to be an Aries you can check out your horoscopes below:
