HOROSCOPE
Being a Pisces born on February 29th, you are perhaps most well known for your intuition and selflessness. While others struggle to understand the complexities of human emotion, you simply seem to have a sense of what others are thinking or feeling. With this understanding, you are able to display understanding and compassion to all you encounter. While your intuition is a great skill, you may be most appreciated for your selfless nature. When someone is in need, friend or stranger, there is little you would not do to lend a helping hand. Your level of kindness is truly rare in this world!
