This birthday star portrays Candace Young on “The Haves and the Have Nots” and Alicia Johnson on “Mixed-ish.” She also starred as Layla Williamson on the daytime soap opera “One Life to Live” and played the recurring role of Raina Thorpe on “Gossip Girl.” Sumpter’s film credits include “Sonic the Hedgehog,” “Southside With You” and “Ride Along.” Aries(march21-april19): The first day of summer might be best spent at home attending to any emerging chores. A brush of paint on the door, a task for the screwdrive­r or a garage cleanup might be on your calendar. Taurus(april20-may20):serious thinking may occupy your mind to the extent that you ignore the allure of the first day of summer. You may have no intention of giving up a dream, but you may need to face some sober and limiting facts. Gemini(may21-june20): If you get in over your head, tread water. It might be time to consider practical methods to improve your financial status. Analyze your bills and come up with a workable budget. Cancer(june21-july22): There is plenty going on this weekend that may dramatical­ly shift your attention to ambitious plans and practical accomplish­ments. Despite this, take some quiet time to reflect on your life and goals.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Take extra care with your appearance and light up your face with a smile. Even if you are only walking around the block, be sure to look your best. A loved one will appreciate your efforts and be proud to be seen with you.

Learn a new skill together with a partner. The first day of summer may offer a perfect opportunit­y to discuss the ins and outs of a creative project or ways to achieve a joint goal. You can be sensible as well as sensitive.

Today’s New Moon could mark a time when you may feel brought down to earth. Right now, you may be seeing your accomplish­ments in a harsher-thanusual light. Wait several days before making any key career decisions. Scorpio(oct.23-nov.21): A New Moon can mean a new phase, and in your case it might be the need for more clear communicat­ion that comes into focus. Be prepared to gather more informatio­n and study pet subjects in the month ahead.

Sagittariu­s (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Be on your best behavior and avoid making waves. Some people may be unsettled or respond with negativity. Discuss practical matters and wise business tactics with family members or your partner. Capricorn(dec.22-jan.19): Today you might worry that money is in short supply. Go over your budget to see if this is really the case. If so, have a frank talk with your partner and agree on ways to cut back on unnecessar­y household expenditur­es. Aquarius(jan.20-feb.18): It may be that some things are hidden from view. Put off major decisions and key changes until next week, when you may have more data. Spend your weekend getting your surroundin­gs more organized. Pisces(feb.19-march20): Communicat­e with loved ones and review your goals. Don’t let a temporary feeling of disconnect­ion pry you apart. You may learn something valuable that will help you market a product or handle a dispute. ifjune20is­yourbirthd­ay: Old errors or transgress­ions could come to the forefront during the next two to three weeks. Make the effort to live up to your highest standards so you can be proud of yourself. If you have been carrying a chip on your shoulder, you will find that it slides off as you relax with an inspiring vacation in September. Your business sense and your perceptive­ness about practical issues are at a peak in October, when you should focus on financial security. A chance for success could be blocked by your own lack of preparatio­n at a critical juncture in December. You might possess the right set of skills at the right time, and if you are prepared for opportunit­ies, you can parlay this into career success or recognitio­n.
