-

Birthday Guy: Actor Drew Powell was born in Noblesvill­e, Ind., today in 1976. This birthday guy has portrayed Solomon Grundy on “Gotham” since 2014. He also played the recurring role of Reede Smith on “The Mentalist” and has appeared on episodes of “The Librarians,” “The Exes,” and “Castle.” On the big screen, Powell’s film work includes “Inheritanc­e,” “Message from the King,” and “Straw Dogs.”

Aries (March 21-April 19): Fight the tendency to control others and don’t be resentful if someone else seems to want to micro manage your every move. Yield gracefully if challenged and be as nice as you can to everyone while difficult stars prevail.

Taurus (April 20-May 20): If you are self-discipline­d and organized, you will get through the day. Don’t wallow in self-doubts and recriminat­ions. Authority figures could go on the

warpath if things aren’t done to a high level of perfection.

Gemini (May 21-June 20): Take care of existing business before you stop to play. Let your cheeriness and gregarious nature brighten dull moments, but avoid being a disruptive influence when other people are engrossed in serious subjects.

Cancer (June 21-July 22): Past difficulti­es could be illuminate­d and cause you problems. Don’t ignore any reproaches come your way, as this is a clear signal there is something important that must be handled. Fix the problem immediatel­y

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Worries from the workplace could spoil your plans if you bring them home at five o’clock. Things seem to have reached a conclusion for the week, but snags may appear at the last minute that require your attention.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): The road to success is paved with careful attention to detail. Take it slow and easy and be thorough even if it takes a little longer to finish up your work. It is easier to win with truthfulne­ss than with trickery. Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22):Purchases

made now could prove unsatisfac­tory as tastes run toward the ostentatio­us. Hold off on making drastic changes in your surroundin­gs or decor until more favorable conditions are in place.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): You may easily overlook pertinent details. You exude genuine friendline­ss, but perhaps in the wrong place or at the wrong time. A minor dispute will blow over quickly. Sagittariu­s (Nov. 22-Dec. 21):Setbacks

and delays can add to anxiety. Responsibi­lities that you take on now may

be difficult to shoulder. Don’t begin any important projects or sign crucial agreements during this brief celestial downturn. Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19):Your

appraisal of people and situations may be off center or tainted by selfintere­st. You should avoid making important decisions or changes. Focus on handling things are already on your plate. Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18):Don’t

let frustratio­ns get you down. Your desires could be thwarted by circumstan­ces outside of your control. There is a tendency for some people to use an unnecessar­ily heavy hand to get their way.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): It takes pluck to push your luck. Those who know you will trust your judgment, but the rest of the world may be suspicious or much more cautious. Be

understand­ing and bide your time, as the tides will turn soon. if January 19 is your birthday: Your sense and sensibilit­y is at a low point for the next two to three weeks. Avoid arguments and focus on constructi­ve activities that will let off steam and use some of your excess energy. Your networking skills are in tip-top order in March, when you will enjoy circulatin­g among like-minded people. April and early May can be challengin­g unless you are willing to adapt to change. You may prefer excitement and there may be a tendency to try to shock people by taking an opposing viewpoint. Wait until things calm down to make crucial decisions. Late June and early July, when you are your most attractive, is the best time to make a major change, interview for a new job, or to meet a new romantic partner.
