Happy Birthday: Don’t push the wrong people and you will come out on top in any situation. You must take advantage of any prospect that comes your way. Slip through a window of opportunity, surprising everyone with your insight. Your ability to find solutions will lead to greater possibilities.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Nothing will be constant in your life. You’ll act on impulse and ride the emotional rollercoaster. It will be a good time to get rid of any of the pent-up hostility. Temper your response with physical activity.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Not everyone will be as forthcoming as you. Consider carefully before sharing your thoughts. Practice patience, tolerance and compassion.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Volunteer work will lead to new beginnings and friendships. Don’t feel obliged to donate money when your time is the best gift. Greater stabilization, security and confidence will come from what you do for others.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Do what you want, not what others want you to do. Offer your services to a community event or group you believe in; you’ll make friends with someone with whom you have a lot in common. Love is in the stars.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Don’t let work-related matters interfere with your personal life and emotions. You need to take a short trip or go to new places to take your mind off any troubles that are causing stress. Avoid any sort of aggressive action.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Why is it that money matters always seem to stand in the way? Don’t get angry about your finances when all you have to do is set up a budget and stick to it. If you need help, turn to someone you trust to go over your current situation.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Avoid any form of overindulgence. Put a cap on your spending. Your best bet is to take part in something that adds to your knowledge or experience through association or actual hands-on learning. Keep the peace and balance your emotions.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): You’ll be drawn to people who are unique, creative and into unusual pastimes. A change of direction will be easier than you think, once you get the ball rolling. It’s all a matter of the people you encounter and with whom you form partnerships.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Get together with friends who share your interests. Socializing will lead to new friendships and a greater interest in changing your current personal situation and home environment. Now is not the time to waffle, when there are so many opportunities available.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Stay away from anyone trying to upset you or start a fight. Stick closer to home and to the people who know and understand you. A neighbor or peer will take advantage of what you can do. Don’t give in to the demands.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Think about the jobs you have done in the past and what your strong points are. Once you establish what you enjoy doing most, you can set your sights on a direction that suits you. Follow your instincts and use your strengths as a barometer.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Let your dreams become your reality. A plan that includes ideas from your past, as well as current possibilities will lead to something worthwhile. Touch base with someone you used to work with. Love is on the rise and romance should be planned for the evening hours.

Birthday Baby: Your interests are vast. You are strong- willed and determined, unpredictable, entertaining and popular.
