CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Brandon “Bug” Hall, 20, Natalie Imbruglia, 30, Oscar De La Hoya, 32, Alice Cooper, 57

Happy Birthday: You really can’t stay put this year. The more you are off and running, traveling here and there, the more you will accomplish and the better informed you will be. This is not a year for sleep and peace of mind but instead a year to take flight and look forward, leaving the past behind you. Your numbers are 10, 13, 17, 26, 34, 40

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Prepare for lift-off. You’ve had your share of difficulties, but it’s payback time, so prepare to excel in whatever way you’ve been held back. Both personal and career gains can be made.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Go over everything with a fine-toothed comb. Errors are likely to be made and will cause setbacks in your plans. Don’t argue about personal matters. You won’t win.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Say no more. You will have everyone eating out of your hand with little effort. Don’t take advantage, however, or you will have to deal with someone who doesn’t forget or forgive.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): You’d best focus on work, making money and doing your best to get out of debt. The more you can do to offset your expenses by cutting back on unnecessary bills, the better.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): There is so much happening that it will be hard for you to know where to begin. Put love at the top of your list and you will have no regrets. No challenge will be too great for you.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): There isn’t much point in arguing or taking matters too personally. Try to put your efforts into being unique and doing a good job. Work by yourself and you will accomplish the most.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): You will be hard to resist no matter what you do today. Both business and personal partners will back you. You will have original ideas that will be considered ideal solutions.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): You may want to get things done, but it won’t be easy if you continue to let other people dump additional responsibilities in your lap. Learn to say no before it’s too late.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Your ability to stay ahead of the competition will lead to victory. You will have an innate ability to choose wisely. Luck is in your corner, and gifts will come your way.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Don’t try to do too much. You will be overloaded with unexpected tasks. Overreacting, overdoing and overindulging must all be kept in check. Put yourself first today.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You will have the answers when it comes to inventing something to solve a problem you face. Your ideas will be clear-cut and simple. Follow through and you will receive praise.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Nothing will be cut and dried today. You will have to jump through hoops to get things done. Don’t be so hard on yourself. You need time to put things in place. Take your time.

Birthday Baby: You are very difficult to keep up with. You are in your own world and see the glory and the possibilities in things that most could never recognize. You are a doer, an organizer, a leader and a goodwill citizen.
