Happy Birthday: If you want this to be a year of change, it’s up to you to make the first move. Once you head in a certain direction, you will find out who is going to lend you a helping hand and who is going to oppose you every step of the way. Lay down some ground rules that will deter others from interfering. Your numbers are 2, 13, 24, 29, 31, 34, 44.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): An emotional situation is best handled with care. Look on the bright side and you’ll find a positive way to move forward without too many complaints or setbacks. Focus on personal improvement instead of trying to change others. 3 stars

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You may desire change, but having a plan in place will be required if you want to be successful. Jumping to conclusions or implementing an idea before you’ve worked out any potential problems will slow you down. 3 stars

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Spend time looking over documents or contracts and making sure everything is in order before you are vocal about your intentions or plans. It’s important to have answers to the questions that are likely to be asked should you make a change. 3 stars

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Ask for help; you’ll discover those you can count on. Don’t worry about the people who take a pass; offer incentives to those who pitch in and comply. You’ll reach your goals and build strong relationships. 4 stars

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Stay on top of your responsibilities. Don’t depend on others or expect someone to look out for you. Take care of business first and leave no room for anyone to find errors or to complain about what you have done. 2 stars

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): A change will do you good. Attend a meeting, seminar or anything that will update you regarding an interest, job or decision you have to make. Listen carefully and make up your mind based on facts and the way you feel. 5 stars

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Be willing to do the work yourself. If you wait for someone else to take over, you will end up looking lazy and are likely to lose control. Personal improvements can be made if you do your research and you are realistic. 3 stars

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Scope out what’s doable before you head down a path that could present problems with others or costly changes. Find out who is working for or against you, and only share sensitive information with those you know you can trust. 3 stars

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Explore the possibilities, but don’t jump into something too quickly. A smart approach will save you money. Listen to what others have to contribute, but make up your own mind when it comes time to make a decision. 3 stars

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Live in the moment, and be ready to take action when an opportunity arises. Trust in your keen sense of awareness. You’ll be able to take advantage of an opportunity that can improve your current living arrangement. 3 stars

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Life, love and positive emotional feedback are apparent if you nurture an important relationship and collaborate or want to build a better future. Home improvements look promising if you stick to a set budget and do some of the work yourself. 5 stars

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Don’t lose sight of your creative goals because someone has made you self-conscious about the way you do things. Trust in your ability to be unique and you’ll surpass anyone trying to ruin your plans. Set a standard and make an impression. 2 stars
