CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Brandon Boyd, 30; Matt Groening, 52; Melissa Manchester, 55; Jane Seymour, 55.

Happy Birthday: Any opportunity to use your creative imagination this year will set you apart from the competition. You will change your mind a lot, but only because you are thinking quickly and responding to your thoughts. The more you follow your gut feelings, the better off you’ll be.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Stick to basics and focus on business. You will have some very unusual ideas and, if you can develop them to a point others will get what you are trying to do, you will be able to enlist help.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Don’t let the little things bother you so much and refuse to overreact. You have far better things to do with your time – like lending a helping hand to a cause or friend. The more immersed you become in doing what’s right, the more personal gain you will make.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Don’t leave anything to chance. Although you may think everything is falling into place, someone will probably interfere with your plans. Personal problems will surface with someone you can usually count on.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): You will miss out on a good thing if you are reluctant to take a chance. Romance is in the stars, so make your move. Travel, socializing and hooking up with old friends will turn out superbly.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Money-minded interests will turn out well. Let your true feelings be known and share what it is you want to do. You will find yourself in a very strong position regarding a deal you’ve been trying to bring to the table.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Accomplishment will come easy as long as you are honest about what you can and can’t do. Bringing in the help of someone who can take care of the things you can’t will show how efficient, complimentary and in control you can be.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Don’t labor over the personal changes you should probably be making. Let things go for now and see what you can do about your financial situation. Don’t expect the people closest to you to understand what you are trying to do.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Restrictions may be in place but, if you follow your own path, you will discover a whole new way of expressing yourself. Don’t get angry – get busy following your heart’s desires. Problems with contractors can be expected.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Don’t be too quick to make changes. You will make a mistake if you let your personal life interfere with what you must get done today. Look at the big picture. Your emotions will be difficult to control.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You’ll be ahead of the crowd no matter what you decide to do. Your timing will be impeccable and your ability to pick and choose who and what you should spend time with and on will bring fortunate results.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Do what you can to enhance your surroundings. Renovation or redecorating will turn out to your liking. Making changes to your personal situation can be expected but don’t be disappointed if things don’t move as quickly as you would like.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Relationships will be a little convoluted. Don’t assume other people are thinking along the same lines as you. You will face some strong opposition if you don’t respect what others want.

Birthday Baby: You are a strong contender in the game of life. You are a dreamer, an inventor and an adventurer. You have strong opinions and the ability to take over and get things done.
