CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Rob Bourdon, 27; Gary Barlow, 35; Bill Maher, 50; David Lynch, 60.

Happy Birthday: Work hard to get ahead. You don’t have to do things on a big scale this year – just do them properly. You will have some great solutions for the reforms you feel are necessary. A chance to hook up with someone from your past will lead you in a direction you once wanted to pursue.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Things are beginning to happen so keep the momentum going. Resurrect your ideas, only this time do it yourself instead of letting others get involved and take over. No one understands what you do better than you.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Get everything in order before you lose out on a really good opportunity. An older friend or relative isn’t likely to agree with you. Take into consideration what he or she has to say – it could make a difference to the outcome.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Nothing is likely to stand in your way if you are to the point about the way you see things unfolding. A partnership will take on a much better flavor if you are confident and willing to listen.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Don’t get caught up in emotional melodrama. Refuse to let anyone push your buttons. You are going through changes that you don’t like but, if you can remain calm and reasonable, you can come out on top.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): You may only be kidding yourself regarding a partnership you are trying to develop. Let the other person do a little work. You want the people in your life to be there because they like you, not because they want to use you.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Make plans with friends you enjoy spending time with but don’t get to see that often. A chance to make a professional move in a creative direction is apparent. Memories will lead you to contact an old acquaintance.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Stop turning your back on the possibilities. A little work is no reason to shy away. A partnership may turn out to be totally different than what you expect. Consider all the ways you can utilize this connection.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Someone may try to take advantage of your generosity today. Don’t be too quick to offer your services. Networking your way to a better position should be on your agenda.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Be careful how you present your thoughts today. Someone may take you the wrong way. A chance to try something new will give you a revitalized lease on life. Diplomacy and charm will give you the edge today.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Do what you can to fix things at home both physically and personally. Don’t limit yourself – keep an open mind and you will discover some valuable information. Anger will never get you what you want.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Don’t think about what you can’t do, think about what you can. You will impress the people around you if you aren’t afraid to take on a little extra work or responsibility. Someone you like will make you think about future possibilities.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Pay off your debts and you will feel much better about your future. A little can go a long way if you are resourceful. Don’t expect your family or friends to understand why you are obsessing over someone or something.

Birthday Baby: You can see the big picture and are considered visionary. You create, manifest and move on from one thing or person to another with ease. You are a troubleshooter and a good helper.
