Happy Birthday! Play to win, but play fair. If you send mixed messages, it will hurt your chances to reach your goals this year. Handle money matters with care. Choose quality, not quantity, and you’ll come out ahead. Listen to what others have to say, but don’t contribute something you know little about. Joint ventures are not recommended. Your numbers are 5, 12, 19, 26, 33, 40, 42.

ARIES (March 21-April 19):

Take a break. Time spent contemplating your next move will be valuable. Being physically fit, channeling your energy into health, and feeling and looking your best are favored. Don’t feel restricted when all that’s required are a few simple changes. ★★★★★

TAURUS (April 20-May 20):

Impossible goals will lead to frustration. Rethink your strategy, and consider taking the path of least resistance. Don’t try to force unnecessary change. Know when to size down, and make the most of what you have. ★★★

GEMINI (May 21-June 20):

Stay on track; if you deviate from your original plans, you will have to backtrack. Don’t let an emotional situation turn into a falling out with someone you love. ★★★

CANCER (June 21-July 22):

Take on a new project, or try something that looks like fun. A change someone makes will encourage you to make a couple of adjustments to the way you live. ★★★

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Stop worrying about what someone else is doing, and focus on what you are doing. Your happiness is your concern and your responsibility, not someone else’s. Get involved in something that allows you to use the skills and talents you enjoy using most. ★★★★★

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): A garage sale will help you get rid of some of the items you have that are taking up space. Turn it into an entertaining event with your friends and neighbors. Financial discipline will help you build equity and alleviate stress. ★★★★

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21):

Put everything in its place. Do what’s best for you, not what someone is demanding of you. A partnership will have a higher value than you first realized. Shared information will lead to the change you need to reach a personal goal. ★★★

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18):

Complaining won’t help you get your way or encourage you to follow your dreams. Distance yourself from people who are pressuring you to do things you don’t want to do. Personal gains, improvements and growth will pay off. ★★★★

Get in touch with old friends, revive discarded ideas and plans, and make alterations to the way you do things. Pick up new skills and knowledge that will help you get ahead. Take note of a valuable suggestion someone offers. ★★
