Happy Birthday: This year, you must stay in control if you don’t want to be a jack-of-all-trades and master of none. Size down and really zone in on what’s truly important to you. You must realize that people aren’t perfect and when a connection isn’t fixable, it must be discarded. This isn’t the year to go down with the ship.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Plan a trip or look at the possibility of learning something new or changing your current direction. Doors that were closed in the past are now open and you can make some strong moves to a better future.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Put all your time and effort into finishing a deal you’ve been working on. If you leave it up to others, you can bet something will go wrong, costing you financially. Take a hands-on approach.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Don’t be daunted by the changes thrust upon you today. Be adaptable and ready to work with whatever you are given. A personal problem may develop if you or someone you are close to is overindulgent.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Say what you think and what you mean and you can put an end to the bickering going on in your personal life. A change in a deal you’ve been working on will be to your benefit, so don’t worry so much.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): A change in the way you feel about someone or the way he or she feels about you is likely. Try to keep things to yourself for now. Information regarding someone from your past will spark an interest in getting in touch again.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Pick and choose your words carefully today. Someone who is looking to cause trouble will misinterpret you. Emotional matters will escalate, causing you to make some very sudden changes.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Mentally and physically you will probably feel a little out of it but, if you stick to positive, upbeat friends who encourage you, the results you get from your efforts will be good. Someone you thought you could trust will probably let you down.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Take a break and plan to have some fun. An entertaining evening with people you find creative and unique will spark some interesting ideas. A change in professional direction may not be a bad idea.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You should probably be making some worthwhile changes to your living quarters. Now is a good time to solidify a deal or to make a move that will ensure you the security you are looking for in the future. Don’t think too big.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Everything will be held up, kept a secret or cause you frustration if you insist on pushing matters through that aren’t quite ready. You may only get one chance to prove yourself, so do things by the book.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): If you feel strongly about something or someone, be upfront and honest about it. Even if you don’t get the response you are looking for, you will be able to move forward without regret. Someone you are close to may be taking advantage of your emotional state.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Another day or time or place things might work out differently but, today you must watch your back. You are likely to take on too much or show weakness of character. Don’t let old habits entice you.

Birthday Baby: You are emotional, caring and original. You swivel from thinking one way to another without missing a beat. You think fast and take action before others can respond.
