YOUR HOROSCOPE
Birthday Gal:
Actress Maggie Gyllenhaal was born in Manhattan, N.Y., on this day in 1977. This birthday gal earned a 2010 Oscar nomination for her performance in “Crazy Heart.” Her other film roles include “White House Down,” “The Dark Knight,” and “Secretary.” Her work in the 2014 mini-series “The Honourable Woman” earned her an Emmy nomination and she currently stars as Candy on “The Deuce.”
Aries (Mar 21-Apr. 19):Unpleasant
situations or unnecessary drama could quickly sap your energy, so steer clear of conflicts and turmoil. Take an objective view of matters or emotions could get the best of you.
Taurus (Apr. 20-May 20):
Stay calm when the pressure is on. Don’t allow deadlines or time constraints to frazzle your nerves. Just do the best you can and you’ll be all right. Accept
compliments graciously, but be careful not to let it go to your head.
Gemini (May 21-June 20):Someone
may try to deliberately confuse a situation with double-talk or halftruths to hide what’s really going on. Read between the lines and use your deductive reasoning to get to the true heart of the matter.
Cancer (June 21-July 22):
Events may not turn out the way you wanted or you may not receive the attention you desire, so try focusing on more positive aspects. Sharing your thoughts with someone could help improve your mood.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22):
There’s no time to feel sorry for yourself. Focus on making progress toward goals or working on projects rather than wallowing in discontent over misfortune. Don’t mistake a difference of opinion as a challenge or risk conflict.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22):
All that glitters is not gold. If you have reservations or doubts about something, it could be worth your while to wait a little while before proceeding. Don’t allow someone to pressure you into making a decision before you’re ready.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22.):
Do what is expected of you today but avoid starting any new projects, making key decisions or investments. Be wary of making extravagant purchases, as the financial hit could haunt you later.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21):
Adapt and overcome. The methods that may have worked for you in the past may not be so successful today, so you may need to adopt a new approach. The simplest solution could be the key to solving a difficult problem.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21):
Swimming upstream just tires you out. It may be to your benefit to try and go
along with the consensus opinion and not try to shake things up right now. Fears and doubts could start to take root if that’s all you focus on.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19):
Be prepared to back up everything you say with concrete examples and there will be little left to discuss. There may be a tendency for others to doubt your sincerity, but your actions can prove them wrong.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18):
You may think you can cut corners to save time, but ultimately your work will suffer for it. Smooth over a rocky situation with a friend or loved one by talking things out and putting it behind you.
Pisces (Feb. 19-Mar. 20):
It may be better to put off that latest project for now and concentrate more on planning and gathering resources. Someone may just not understand that their financial scheme is just not practical.
if November 16 is your birthday:
Your dynamism and popularity may soar during the upcoming four to five weeks. People will recognize your trustworthiness and treat you like a family member, so this is an ideal time to meet a new boss, romantic partner, or prospective in-laws. The changes you make now may reflect well on your reputation as well, so it is safe to make promises and commitments. Invitations to join organizations or groups may pour in during January that give you a chance to demonstrate your leadership abilities and “can do” spirit. Lay low in February and March when you are too wrapped up in fantasies to properly judge people and financial matters. April is a good month for vacations and romantic escapades, while July is the best time to re-evaluate investments and business matters.
