Happy birthday. You’ve a tingling excitement about the possibilities, which will grow stronger. November expands your family. Sell a big item in February; buy another almost immediately.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Rest is not idleness. Recognize the signals that it’s time to rest, and then take the time you need.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Ask your heart to be more specific. Figure out why you want what you want.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21): A burden will be lifted from your mind and heart.

CANCER (June 22-July 22): If you knew that you were a source of entertainment, how would that affect your presentation? Would you amp it up or dial it down?

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Competition will bring out your best.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You’ll call a few key shots. It’s because a lot seems to fall under your jurisdiction these days.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Remember when you agreed with your loved one just to keep the peace or when you helped another person save face? In a related story, your personal life is a source of validation and support.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Even when you don’t like what you’re asked to do, you try to approach your duties with an attitude of optimism and good cheer.
