Happy Birthday! Set your emotions aside and look at each situation that arises this year with caution and the intention of finding a feasible solution. Accept what you have no control over, and do the best you can to live up to what’s expected of you. Your numbers are 3, 11, 15, 26, 29, 35, 49.

ARIES (March 21-April 19):

Hesitation will make you appear weak, and jumping too quickly will make you appear unreliable. Do your homework and know what you are talking about before you enter into a discussion that can determine your future.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20):

Stick to what and whom you know. Don’t be too trusting. Avoid confrontations and dealing with authority figures. Live by the rules, and be willing to offer up information that will separate you from anyone doing something wrong.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20):

Don’t share your feelings with someone trying to control situations that involve you. Gather information and use your intelligence to put yourself in an informed and fortunate position. Know what you want before you counter what’s being said.

CANCER (June 21-July 22):

Don’t let your emotions interfere with your responsibilities. You’ll be caught off guard if you leave yourself open to questioning by someone who tends to meddle in other people’s affairs.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22):

You are ready to engage in talks that can bring about change and encourage others to support your actions. Reconnect with people you lost touch with, and you’ll discover something new regarding your past.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22):

You’ll face uncertainty regarding joint endeavors or finances. Make sure equality and fairness prevail, or you will end up in a heated debate, or even worse, suffer a loss. Don’t give in to pressure or emotional manipulation.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22):

Deal with personal problems by being upfront as well as willing to compromise and work alongside others to rectify any existing problems. Understanding the needs of others will help you find amicable solutions. Don’t test someone’s patience by being wishy-washy.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21):

Listen to what’s being said and asked of you carefully before you make a choice. An impulsive decision without regard for someone close to you will create an unnecessary argument. Be open about what you want to do before you commit.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21):

Let the past go. If you continually defer to someone or something that has led to disappointment in the past, you will make it difficult to move forward. Concentrate on self-improvement and doing what’s best for you.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19):

Don’t limit what you can do because someone tries to stand in your way. Be prepared to do your own thing, and don’t worry if someone declines to participate in your plans. Trust in your judgment.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18):

Size up situations before you decide to take part. If you think you are likely to fall back into a lifestyle or relationship that wasn’t good for you in the past, be on guard and ready to make an abrupt exit.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20):

Keep your emotions tucked away while you observe what’s happening. If you are properly informed, you will dodge the emotional pressure someone puts on you to conform to what he or she wants you to do. Concentrate on making physical improvements.

Birthday Baby:

You are complex, unassuming and changeable. You are stylish and sociable.
