Horoscope Reading
---------------------------------------------

Oct 9, 2022 - Compliments are apt to feel like gold to you, Taurus. There's nothing you need more than love and affection on a day like this. Beware that you may end up as putty in the hands of whoever showers you with flattery. You may also resent this need for attention and not be willing to receive it graciously. This isn't the right attitude. Receive accolades with open arms and offer an equal amount of affection in return.
