Happy Birthday: Temper your desire to invest too extensively. Baby steps will help you build a solid foundation that will allow you to grow over time. Shortcuts are not favored, so don’t be tempted by what others do or say. Follow the path that makes you feel most comfortable and you will ease your stress.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Being on the defensive and picking fights will not help you win in the long run. Look for an imaginative way to satisfy both your needs and the needs of those influenced by your actions. Helping others will bring high returns.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): A proactive approach to something you want to do or someone you want to get to know better will work in your favor. A romantic gesture will improve your personal life. A flattering change can be made.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Bide your time when it comes to making personal and domestic changes. You are better off concentrating on obtaining information and ironing out any small but important details that can affect the outcome of a plan you want to pursue.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Don’t assume anything. Take a closer look at the situation you face and the people involved before you make a move. Taking an obscure approach will throw a wrench in anyone’s plans to oppose you. Preparation will be your biggest ally.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Put in the time and reap the rewards. Showing dedication and honoring promises made will raise your profile and your reputation. Favorable changes are within reach, as long as you don’t upset someone in a position to derail your plans.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Time is on your side. Don’t feel the need to make an impulsive decision or change because someone is pressuring you. Stick to your original game plan and you will reach your goal and rewards for your patience and savvy maneuvers.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Listen carefully and sum up what’s going on around you before you make a decision to offer someone help. You have plenty to offer, but uncertainty coupled with being pressured can lead to an uncompromising move. Exercise caution.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): An unusual approach to the way you run your home and deal with personal relationships will work well, but it might also cause some friction with others. Go about your business quietly and refrain from sharing your decisions until after the fact.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Home, family, building your assets and doing things that make you happy should be your goals. Don’t be railroaded by someone who doesn’t share your likes, dislikes or concerns. Follow the path that suits you best and don’t look back.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Your usual steady way of approaching everything isn’t likely to work for you today. Get ready to take a different approach to the way you handle friends, family and conversations that will bring about long-term change. Protect your assets and your reputation.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Don’t give in to peer pressure. Look for ways to make your money work for you. Have confidence in your ideas and skills and you will find a window of opportunity that allows you to expand and explore new possibilities.
