CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Venus Williams, 30; Greg Kinnear, 47; Joe Piscopo, 59; Barry Manilow, 67.

Happy Birthday: You have to be conscientious about completion this year. Do not leave anything undone or someone else will take control and get credit for your ideas. Strive for stability, not the impossible. Sometimes less does turn out to be more. Get rid of dead weight. 

ARIES (March 21-April 19): The work you do on your own and for your benefit will bring you the rewards you are looking for. An appointment to improve your looks or a shopping spree will get you out of a funk and back to your confident self. 

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You can move forward but not before you get approval from the people in your life affected by your decisions. Listening to what other people are offering will give you an idea what’s missing and how you can make what you have to offer superior. 

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Let everyone do his or her own thing and get on with your own business. Expect to face a do-or-die situation at home with regard to an emotional issue involving time, money and a broken promise. 

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Added responsibilities at home will cause uncertainty initially but, in time, will lead to the long overdue alterations you need to make in order to be happy. An old relationship will bring back memories but shouldn’t influence a pressing decision. 

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Do your best to help others, finish what you start or resolve an issue that you left dangling. The more you address, the more you will be able to focus on the things you want to put emphasis on in the future. Hard work will pay off. 

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You can’t expect to please everyone. Do your best but do not deviate from the plans you have already made. Work done to your home will be costly and not to your satisfaction, unless you do the work yourself. 

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Your intelligence, coupled with your ability to turn a negative into a positive, will help you get your way. Someone you feel responsible for has a hidden agenda. Look out for your own interests first, then you can offer help to others. 

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Taking action will surprise the people you are trying to outsmart. Revenge cannot be your motivation but truly wanting to get ahead can. Justice and fair play must rule your world. 

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Difficult situations will arise. The outcome will be out of your hands. Proceed with caution and protect your emotional, mental and physical well-being. Stick close to home and you will avoid some of the problems. 

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Get an insider’s view of what is actually happening contractually, financially or legally to a deal or company you are affiliated with. Sign up to learn something new or update a skill. Don’t wait around for things to happen — initiate your own plans. 

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You’ll be sought after by someone who sees what you have to offer but, before you decide to join forces, make sure this person has something to offer in return. The more creative input you have, the easier it will be to get things done to your specifications. Discuss but don’t commit. 

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Dissect recent circumstances before you make a decision. You will have regrets if you act in haste or disregard what’s happened. Right now, it’s probably best to give the benefit of a doubt. 

Birthday Baby: You are driven and determined, forceful, emotional and sensitive. You are impulsive and curious.
