ARIES (March 21-April 19): You still have a strong hold on everything you are doing, but the opportunities won’t be there forever. It is important that you put as much time and effort into finalizing deals.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Emotional matters can be dealt with, but when it comes to just about everything else, take a pass for now. Focus on love, romance and making someone you care about happy.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Don’t be fooled into thinking that everything is perfect. Although many things are going your way today, personal issues or a problem with someone you care about may be looming.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Don’t get ahead of yourself. If you assume something is going to happen, it probably won’t. Concentrate on doing something creative and avoid any situation that may lead to a disagreement.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): You can make a move, get ahead financially or change your current direction. If you apply yourself, you will achieve your goals.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You can accomplish plenty as long as you don’t let your emotions get the better of you. Forget about what you can’t change.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You may have to backtrack today if you make a decision in haste. Consider taking time out to spend a quiet day with someone you love instead of spinning your wheels trying to make something happen that probably won’t.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You have plenty to contend with today, but if you play your cards right, you should be able to make things happen. An unexpected incident may cause some worry.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Expect the unexpected and you will do just fine. Nothing will go according to plan, but if you are prepared to think quickly and take action, you will do all right.

Someone is likely to surprise you.

Birthday Baby: You are spectacular. You are forceful, dynamic and always in search of knowledge. You have a strong intuition and plenty of charisma. You know what you want and how to get it.
