CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Kayla Ewell, 41; Aaron Paul, 47; Sarah Chalke, 50; Chandra Wilson, 57.
Happy Birthday: Emotional situations will grow and lead to much-needed change. Concentrate on what will make the most difference, and don’t look back. Put living in the past behind you, and rush toward new beginnings. Be bold, say what’s on your mind and follow through with your plans. Invest more time and money in your next adventure. A lifestyle change will give you the boost you need to reach your goal. Your numbers are 3, 17, 22, 24, 35, 39, 46.
ARIES (March 21-April 19): The power is in what you finish, not what you allude to doing next. Be true to yourself, and turn your thoughts and dreams into something concrete. Frustration will surface if you expect others to step in and carry you to the finish line. Put pressure on yourself, not others, and the outcome will lead to self-respect and opportunities. 3 stars
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Stick to the truth, and direct your energy smartly. Offering too much or too little will deter others from pitching in. A heartfelt rendition based on facts will convince those you want and need on your team to join forces. Use honesty, fortitude and courage to gain trust. Protect against exhaustion, injury or illness. 4 stars
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Put emotions aside and focus on learning, researching and bringing about positive change. Consider obscure options that allow you the wiggle room necessary to do things differently. Don’t be a follower. Lead the way, adding your own unique slant, and the outcome will guide you in a direction that offers freedom to live life your way. 2 stars
CANCER (June 21-July 22): Take your time, get details and proceed with caution. Someone will offer inaccurate information. Check the facts, and choose avenues and people you trust to honor their promises. Be a good listener, but don’t share your personal stories or information. Uncertainty means it’s time to be a spectator, not a participant. Avoid crowds, protests and volatile situations. 3 stars
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Tone it down. Having a poor attitude will put you in a vulnerable position. Don’t buy into someone else’s dream or make mistakes you’ll have to pay for. Think twice before you purchase something sight unseen. Use intelligence, and avoid lessons that can hurt your reputation, bank account or ego. A low-key approach to something will spare you upset. 3 stars
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Stop worrying. Start addressing matters of concern to put your mind at ease. Address joint ventures and shared expenses to ensure your emotional and financial safety. You will reap what you sow. Work hard, play hard and enjoy the returns. A commitment or contract will put your mind at ease. Get what you want in writing. 3 stars
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Step out and explore. Expand your circle, interests and goals. A change of scenery will offer a different perspective regarding your options. Consider how you can use your skills in a unique and helpful way. Opportunity comes to those who venture to try something new. Make a commitment to do, be and look your best. Romance is favored. 5 stars
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Pay attention to money and medical matters. Soul-searching will help you determine what’s best for you. Refuse to let anyone goad you into something you don’t want to do. Pay attention to detail and to the consequences that may result. Put your time and energy into research, communication and fact-finding. There is no room for error. 2 stars
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Stop talking and start doing. Living up to your promises will be easier than trying to avoid the people counting on you for something. Be up-front and discuss what you can and cannot do, and you will gain respect, helpful suggestions and a chance to get back on track. Put ego aside to work toward your goal. 4 stars
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Be careful not to let confusion or misinformation turn into loss. Do your research, and avoid impulsive action or walking away from situations or unfinished business that will cause stress and worry if left undone. Be smart, and keep important papers up to date. Review subscriptions and monthly payments, and cancel what you no longer need. 4 stars
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You’ve got more options than you realize. Invest in self-improvements that will help you get ahead financially. Don’t let anger or ego stand between you and what’s in your best interest. A lifestyle change is only as good as you make it. Explore the possibilities and pursue your dreams. An interesting encounter looks inviting. Romance is on the rise. 3 stars
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Ask questions, listen, and consider the response others offer, then think about how you want to move forward. You have more options and time than you realize.
