IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY:

Actress Blake Lively (1987) shares your birthday. You are generous, witty and entertaining. When you choose a task, you are dedicated to it. Exciting news! You’re entering a year of new beginnings! This means it’s time to identify goals to determine what you want for yourself in the next few years. Be proactive and physically energetic about going after what you want. Just do it!

Aries (March 21-April 19):

This is an unpredictable day (but let’s try). Expect surprises related to your work and possibly your health. If you have a pet, keep your eyes open because something unexpected could affect your pet. Technology might be challenging as well.

Taurus (April 20-May 20):

Parents should be extra vigilant because this is an accident-prone day for their kids. All of you might have a few surprises related to social situations. You might get an unexpected invite somewhere? Or social plans might be canceled. It’s a crapshoot.

Gemini (May 21-June 20):

Be careful today. Your ruler Mercury is dancing with unpredictable Uranus, which means anything can happen. Could be good; could be not so good. Most likely, your surprise will relate to home and family. Small appliances might break down. Someone might appear at your door with a gift!

Cancer (June 21-July 22):

Be careful because this is an accident-prone day for your sign. However, on the upside, you might meet new people who are exciting and interesting and you might take a spontaneous short trip that is stimulating and fun. Anything can happen.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22):

Keep an eye on your money and your possessions because something unexpected might affect them. You might find money; you might lose money. Something you own might be lost, damaged or stolen. Or you might get a gift from someone? Could be anything.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22):

Today you feel alive and mentally stimulated! Everything you encounter will have an exciting quality. New things will interest you and travel will definitely appeal. You might have a chance to study something new. Seek out interesting people and listen to their insights.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22):

Something going on behind the scenes might lead to a few surprises today. Perhaps delicious secrets will come out? If so, be discreet in the way that you would want someone to be discreet about your own secrets. You might will likely feel restless today. “I’m late for the ball!”

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21):

Someone younger than you might have a pleasant surprise for you today. This person might be a friend or a member of a group. Or perhaps someone you know will suggest something unusual and exciting? You might even meet someone new who is dashing and different. (Sigh.)

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21):

A conversation with a boss, parent or someone in a position of authority might surprise you today. They might sing your praises or offer you a good deal or a pleasant proposition about something? Maybe a promotion? Maybe a raise? Whatever happens will surely please you.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19):

An unexpected chance to travel might fall in your lap today. If so, you will have to act quickly because this window of opportunity is brief. Likewise, you might get a chance to get further education, training or schooling? If so, again, act fast!

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18):

Stay in touch with your bank accounts and anything to do with inheritances, insurance issues and shared property because something unexpected could affect these areas. Don’t be caught asleep at the switch. Know what’s happening. (Especially if it affects your wealth.)

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20):

This is not a boring day because a close friend or partner is going to do or say something that surprises you. (Let’s hope it’s something fantastic!) But it might not be. (Let’s be realistic.) One thing is certain: You can take anything for granted today. Be alert
