CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Demi Lovato, 18; Amy Adams, 36; Joan Allen, 54; Al Roker, 56.

Happy Birthday: Don’t push your luck, especially with emotional matters that can disrupt your whole life. You will walk a fine line this year and must think each matter through before taking action. There will not be a lot of second chances to fall back on. You must not let anyone take advantage of your desire to help. 

ARIES (March 21-April 19): There is no point arguing or trying to get out of something that is expected of you. A partnership will take all the patience you can muster. Don’t look at uncertainty as a negative but rather as a long overdue — and necessary — change. 

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Take a leadership role and guide everyone you want to persuade down the road you want to travel. This is the perfect time to show what you have to offer. Be the driving force and you will reap the rewards. 

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): What you think is going on may not be the case. Do your homework and observe how others react. Flexibility will be required if you want to get things up and running and stay on schedule. Save your evening hours for romance. 

CANCER (June 21-July 22): You may be up against more opposition than you realize. Don’t overreact or you will give your position away, leaving you with little maneuverability. Your ability to give and take will help you achieve your goals. 

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): You really need a vacation or at least a change of scenery. Uncertainty regarding friends, neighbors and relatives may put you in an awkward position. Don’t take on a burden that doesn’t belong to you.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You have the right to make a choice, regardless of the pressure being put on you by an old friend. To fight the inevitable is a waste of time. Your pragmatic attitude will carry you through any opposition. 

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): You’ll be subject to ridicule and added responsibilities. Before you take on too much, consider how it will influence you and the ones you love. A burden brought on by someone else will not help you move forward with your own plans. 

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Get rid of the people dragging you down. Look forward with optimism and clear the way for completion of a project that can make a difference to your financial future. Focus on your own pursuits, goals and happiness. 

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): There is money to be made and recognition to be gained. Don’t allow someone else to beat you to the finish line because you are tied up with personal matters. Don’t overspend or you may appear frivolous. 

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You’ll encounter plenty of opposition if you try to push what you want onto others. Financial moves should be made in secret. Moderation will directly link to the degree of success you have. 

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Do not trust others to take care of matters that need your undivided attention. The potential to make money or come into extra cash is apparent. Negotiate anything and you will get your way. 

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): This is a day of give and take and gaining a better understanding of what’s required to reach your goals. Don’t give in to a partnership that isn’t offering equality. 

Birthday Baby: You tend to be reserved. You are not a player and will not put up with anyone who doesn’t offer you equality. You are make your way through life, following your own rules.
