A baby born today has a Sun in Virgo and a Moon in Scorpio if born before 8:12 p.m. (ET). Afterward, the Moon will be in Sagittarius.

Happy birthday for Friday September 14, 2018:
This year you could find your ability to communicate drawing new people toward you. Old friends and loved ones also relish talking to you. Enjoy social- izing and expanding your immediate circle of friends. If you are single, many potential sweeties become more intrigued after speaking with you. You might be 10 months away from forming a major bond. If you are attached, you enjoy chatting together so much that you might decide to re-create your first few dates. SAGITTARIUS does not mean to be so critical.
