CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Vanessa Marcil, 37; Sarah Ferguson, 47; Emeril Lagasse, 47; Tanya Roberts, 51

Happy Birthday: You may have more options than you know. Don’t sell yourself short by settling for less than what you want. Make a list of the things that will help you reach your life goals and start ticking each one off as completed. This should be a year of progress, so start being a participant.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): You are a doer and, if the people you are dealing with aren’t as fast as you, it may be wise to map out every detail before you sign on the dotted line. Travel will be in your best interest.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Don’t overspend trying to impress someone or keep the peace with your children or a loved one. Make plans to provide for the necessities – not what everyone around you wants. Someone is likely to overreact. This is not the time to give in.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Socializing will turn into a royal affair because of the contacts you make. Jot down whatever information you will need to follow up. Love the one you’re with or, if single, find someone new.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): You’ll be inclined to overspend on friends, family and the little ones. Remember that you can’t buy love, so consider other options. Introduce the ones you want to impress to something you enjoy doing for nothing.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Emotional issues can be dealt with. Call a family meeting or get together with friends who have not been pulling their weight. It’s time to even out the playing field by discussing your grievances.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Perfectionism may not be everyone’s thing but, when it comes to making reforms or helping the underdog, it sure helps to be one. You will be very clear-cut about what you intend to do. Your participation may lead to an interesting offer.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): You will have a lot to think about today. A desire to do something different or to get out of the position you are in may leave you feeling a little unsettled. Rely on someone you look up to for the right advice.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Someone may be trying to talk you into something you probably shouldn’t do. A secret involvement may be enticing but, in the end, it will be how much it costs you emotionally, financially and personally. Prepare to say no.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Take the plunge and follow through with something you always wanted to do. The time to get started learning or trying something totally new is now. A job offer will be made or brought to your attention.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Stick to what you know and do best. Travel will fall short of your expectations and someone you have trusted in the past will let you down. Be careful how you handle the people and situations you are facing.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You are feeling the need to resolve issues and to make a commitment to something you know you should do or someone you care deeply for. A money matter, contract or a move will all turn out in your favor.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Today you must come up with some neat ideas to help you make more money or change your current direction. A gift, winning, settlement or payment can be collected. An older relative will want you to have something.

Birthday Baby: You are graceful, entertaining, challenging and intense. You are a fair and just person who wants to do what’s best for everyone.
