CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Melanie Brown, 33; Melissa Etheridge, 47; Adrian Paul, 49; Annette Bening, 50.

Happy Birthday: Don’t let your own indecisiveness or someone else’s uncertainty be your demise. You must pull things together regardless of the changes and challenges you face. Strength, not manipulation, will impress others.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Don’t expect things to run smoothly, especially where paperwork, institutions or government dealings are concerned. Someone will withhold information from you or intentionally lead you in the wrong direction.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): An interesting encounter, a surprise or a sudden change that benefits you is apparent. A meeting with someone from your past will help you see existing possibilities that can lead to a higher earning level.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): You’ll be friendly, chatty and a little too forthright with the people you meet. Empty promises can be expected if you decide to get involved with someone who isn’t trustworthy.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Trust in your own judgment and take a lead position with business and partnerships. Set the standard and you will not only impress those you meet but gain trust and confidence as well.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Travel to an exotic destination. You will get the help you need if you pull in favors owed to you.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Don’t give in to someone who wants you to put your money on the line. Protect your financial position and balance what you can offer by giving valuable solutions and a little hands-on help.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Speak up and don’t take to heart a colleague or friend who puts you down or ruins your plans because of indecisiveness. You will do much better on your own.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Don’t trust anyone who tries to bully you into doing things differently or who gives you an ultimatum. An opportunity to take a trip will pay off in the new connections you make.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Get in the mood to initiate changes to your living arrangements. Doing so will make a difference to your emotional outlook and help you move on to a stable personal situation.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You can stabilize your financial, emotional and physical outlook by making adjustments. Be confident.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Double check what’s being offered by someone eager to get you involved in something new. Ask questions and pose suggestions.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Erratic behavior will lead to disastrous results. Wait and watch what everyone around you is doing before you make a move.

Don’t tell your secrets to anyone, even if you have no reason to expect disloyalty.

Birthday Baby: You are versatile, ingenious and sensitive. You are passionate about everything you do. You are intuitive and communicate in a compelling fashion.
