CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Scott Terra, 19; Phyllis George 57; Jimmie Walker, 59; Carly Simon, 61

Happy Birthday: This year, you have to act fast if you are going to make the most prosperous changes in your life. There is no time to waste and certainly no time to ponder matters any longer. Your fears of what can go wrong will always be there and, although nothing is perfect, if you don’t try, you will never know what you missed out on.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Plan an outing that will stimulate you physically and calm you down mentally. You need a break and time to relax with the ones you love. Romance will develop if you are receptive.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Do not overspend on an investment that depends on other people or might cause a drastic change in your financial position. Anything that sounds too good to be true probably is. Extravagance is likely when dealing with children or friends.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Take things one step at a time. You are likely to get the wrong impression and wind up in an emotional argument. You can sidestep a lot of problems if you refuse to let anyone goad you into a debate.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Examine your situation and you will have no problems finding solutions. Your past experience will help you make the right decisions. A change in your professional direction is looking very positive.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): You will be able to make some serious cash if you invest in a piece of property. If you attend a meeting or event that interests you, you will meet someone who sparks your interest. Take over the leadership and everyone will follow.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): The people you meet along the way will provide you with some interesting food for thought. The more involved you get in something you believe in, the greater your chance will be of finding a compatible partner.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): What you say may be held against you, especially if you are out with friends or family and decide to voice your opinion. Travel will not go according to plan so leave yourself extra time. Don’t trust someone with your own responsibilities.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Make social plans. Visit friends, take a short trip or get involved in a group that is living the lifestyle that suits you. It’s time for a change, and now is the perfect time to make your move.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Don’t be fooled by someone who is offering you a deal. Take your time, do your research and see if you can get a better price elsewhere. An inheritance, gift or money you don’t expect is heading your way.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): A residential move, redecorating or renovations will all turn out well if started today. Attending a tradeshow will help you decide what direction to take. Emotional issues can be resolved with cash and a promise.
