CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Snoop Dogg, 36; Viggo Mortensen, 49; Melanie Mayron, 55; Tom Petty, 57

Happy Birthday: This is a time to refurbish all aspects of your life to what works best for you. You may come up against opposition but you have it within you to take on the challenge and win. A lot can be gained if you don’t bend under pressure. Formulate your game plan and stick to it.

ARIES (MARCH 21-APRIL 19): Get rid of the things you no longer use. Move on emotionally and you can start again, much wiser and aware of what you can and cannot do. Learn from past experience.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Emotional confusion is apparent. Do not donate to an organization or an acquaintance without sufficient information. A love connection can be made if you are single and, if you are already with someone, a new commitment can be made.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): You can dazzle everyone with your originality and ability to sound convincing. However, if your ideas are not sound, you will be in a position where you are responsible for others with little recourse or plan. Don’t jump too quickly.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Someone may try to talk you out of your money today. Don’t bend for someone who has not shown you respect in the past. It’s time to reconnect with someone who was always on your side and covering your back.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): You will be entertaining but don’t become a spectacle. Pick and choose your fights and where you stage them. If you are in public, rise to the occasion and refuse to let anyone get on your nerves. Don’t let ego get in the way.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You will face some opposition from the ones you love but that shouldn’t stop you from following through with plans you made a long time ago. Changes at home may be sudden but, if you think matters through, you will realize you will be better off in the end.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): You can make everyone stand up and clap if you proceed with an idea you have. You will succeed if you put in a little extra effort today. You will attract money, lovers, new friends and proposals.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Don’t let your emotions get in the way or hold you back. You don’t have to have the approval of everyone in order to move forward. Believe in yourself, your talents and your ability to get the job done.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Travel or physical activity may lead to delays, minor mishaps or even an injury. Play with caution, even if you feel you can conquer the world. A sudden change made by someone will leave you in the lurch.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Someone will be trying to catch up to you so don’t look back or stop what you are working on. A deal must be finished or a project completed. Don’t allow anyone to apply emotional pressure.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You will be looking through rose-colored glasses and, if you don’t take them off, you may get hurt in the end. Don’t be too gullible – ask questions. Better to be safe than sorry. Don’t lend or borrow money or possessions. 3 stars

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Nothing will be clear or out in the open today. Be extremely observant if you want to catch what’s really going on. A love interest may not be sharing his or her true feelings.

Birthday Baby: You are emotionally sensitive and a deep thinker with definite opinions. You are serious about love, life and your professional goals. You will strive to follow your heart.
