Happy Birthday: Your emotions will get you into trouble this year. Erratic behavior will lead to mistakes. Control your responses and focus on mastering a skill or finding ways to make more money. As the year goes by, you can see positive results from your hard work.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Don’t second-guess what you should do in the case of personal or medical problems. Take care of matters quickly and refuse to let someone make decisions for you. A change may be necessary.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): It will be an education for you to deal with individuals who are entrepreneurial or carefree about money and business. Let the experience others have be your inspiration for doing something you’ve longed to do.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Slow down and think before you take action. You may have some wonderful ideas but, if they aren’t within your budget, rethink your strategy. A love problem will crop up if you haven’t been honest about how you feel.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): The extras you can offer will help you close a deal you are working on. Don’t be afraid of change – if you welcome it, you will be further ahead in the end. Someone may try to confuse you with fast talk. Make up your own mind.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Your contributions will lead to a serious proposal. There is a profit to be made for doing something you feel passionate about. Move forward quickly with confidence and you can delegate and maintain control.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Getting all worked up over nothing will be your downfall. You must maintain a state of calm if you want others to agree with you. Show your playful side but accept an opportunity that surfaces through someone you meet at an activity or event.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): You need time out to think things over. Don’t leap into something without knowing exactly what you are getting or where you are heading. Play it safe with a wait-and-see approach, especially with business or an authoritative group or organization.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Put heart and soul into what you are doing and you will entice others to help you along. Your dedication, precision and detail will convince others you know what you are doing. Don’t expect to reap the financial rewards just yet.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): It’s important to give a good impression, so do your homework and have everything laid out simply. Be open and bold and others will come on board. Plan to go the distance in a very short period of time.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Don’t let love cost you. Children, lovers or peers may lean on you financially if you let them. You can’t pay for others’ mistakes. A sudden change in your financial position is apparent if you take advantage of an opportunity that presents itself.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): A change at home may be daunting at first but, in the end, it will be beneficial. Be open to the possibility of doing things differently. It may be time to move on and experience new people, places and things.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Emotions will mount if you have forgotten or refused to do something requested by a friend or relative. Make an attempt to meet halfway on any demands being put on you. Negotiate what will be fair and work to benefit everyone involved.
