CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Anna Faris, 35; Don Cheadle, 47; Andrew McCarthy, 49; Howie Mandel, 56.

Happy Birthday: Don’t overstep your boundaries. You have to keep things in perspective and do only what’s required. Going over budget or taking on too much will leave you in a poor position as the year progresses. Change may be necessary, but do so simply and with moderation. You want to end up with more, not less. Focus, be responsible and do what’s right.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Look past the obvious. Don’t let the little things bother you. It’s how you perform and what you do to make things better that will count in the end. Use your head, think matters through and avoid arguing with anyone you work alongside.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Your receptiveness to information offered will make a difference. Networking functions will pay off. A contract or settlement will change the way you do things. Don’t overreact. Consider what’s being offered, cut your losses and move forward.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Look for a partnership that will enhance what you have to offer. An opportunity to promote something you have done in the past will pay off now. Take care of legal matters and make a commitment that will stabilize your future.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Don’t make changes that are premature. Look for opportunities, but don’t jeopardize what you already have. Take particularly good care of a partnership that means a lot to you. Offer your services if it will seal a deal.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Do whatever it takes to get things going. Staying in control will allow you to cap the amount spent as well as how much time you put in. Uncertainty regarding an emotional responsibility will require your undivided attention.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Work on self-improvement, not trying to change others. A chance to get together with someone special will open a window of opportunity. Don’t let good fortune slip away because you want everything done your way. Win with compromise.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Problems at home will leave you up in the air and uncertain. Make plans to fix anything that isn’t working. Take the initiative, do your share and make a difference to the outcome. If you don’t pitch in, you won’t have a say.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): You can argue, or you can get things done. Expect a friend or relative to make your life difficult if you try to avoid responsibilities. Romance is highlighted, and doing something nice for someone special will have its benefits.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Rely on knowledge and experience to avoid making the same mistake again. Getting together with people from your past will stir up emotions and make you reconsider where you want to live.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Secure your assets and reduce your liabilities. Making changes to your home, investments or contracts will pay off. Love is in the stars, and taking time to nurture a relationship will ensure greater personal stability.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Say what’s on your mind. Someone may try to take advantage of you, but your counteroffer will make it clear that you are only willing to do so much. Set your standard and stick to it.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): You can be practical and still offer something unique. Choose your path and stick to it until you reach the finish line. Inconsistency will make others lose faith in what you do. Demonstrate, rather than talk about your plans.

Birthday Baby: You are outgoing, inventive and resilient. You see, you do, you accomplish.
