IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY: Actor Sam Rockwell (1968) shares your birthday. You are intelligent and outspoken. In fact, you are thirsty for knowledge. You are also courageous, determined, creative and thoughtful. Now is the time to clarify goals because you are entering a year of exciting changes and new beginnings! Start to define what you want for yourself in the next several years. Be pro-active! This year you will feel physically energetic.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Tread carefully. You might have a clash of wills between you and a partner or close friend. This is a bad idea because this kind of clash is one that you could regret. It might become more bother than it’s worth and possibly get you in trouble.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Ego battles between you and a coworker or boss might take place. Why bother? Is it that important to you to get your own way? Think about your longterm objective. Ultimately, you want the cooperation of this person, don’t you?
Gemini (May 21-June 20): Parents need to be patient when dealing with their kids because this is a classic day of meltdowns and slammed doors. Instead, be the adult. Fake it. Your kids learn more from watching how you act than whatever you tell them. Be the role model they need.
Cancer (June 21-July 22): It might be hard to keep the peace at home. But the essence of this power struggle, which will likely take place, is all about ego. It’s all about someone getting their own way. Don’t get caught up in this. Take the high road.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Some days it’s easy to argue with others because unconsciously, you’re full of combative energy. Today is one of those days. Don’t be ruthless when dealing with others. And don’t be underhanded, or you will suffer defeat. Rise above all this pettiness.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Squabbles about money, possessions and who is responsible for what can arise in part because people are looking for a fight. (You need this like a fish needs a bicycle.) Figure out what the bottom line is — that line that you will not cross. Hold it.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Today Mars is in your sign at odds with Pluto. Actually, this is an opportunity for you to creatively transform the world around you! However, this same influence can also create fierce power struggles and disagreements with others. Your choice.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Someone working behind the scenes might stir the pot and upset you in some way. Avoid this situation (or this person) if you can because they are not your friend. Life is too short to hang out with someone who is not your friend, don’t you agree?
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Squabbles with a friend — more like a power struggle — or a similar conflict with a member of a group might take place. It could simply be about power and control. (These are the worst.) Maybe people differ about how to approach a situation or introduce improvements? Stay cool.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): This is not a good day to be at odds with a parent, boss, authority figure or a member of the police. The odds are high that you will lose or suffer defeat. Therefore, sidestep this kind of power struggle if you can. Who needs it? Not you.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Avoid controversial topics like politics, religion and racial issues because these disputes will quickly disintegrate into nasty arguments. This will accomplish nothing, and you know this. Therefore, steer clear of this kind of fight. Look for ways to cooperate not disagree.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Disputes about inheritances or shared property could get downright nasty. Be aware of this before you wade into a disagreement with someone, especially a partner or close friend or a family member. Demonstrate that you can keep cool.
