IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY:

This year your poise and sense of self emerge and convince others that you know what you are doing, even when you really don’t! You often choose not to reveal your feelings. You might feel like a daredevil at times, but you refuse to take dramatic risks. Emotional and profession­al success is likely. If you are single, a friendship could play a substantia­l role in you changing your status. Look to fall 2017 for a special person to walk into your life. If you are attached, the two of you need more time alone together than in the recent past. These periods kindle and fuel your relationsh­ip. Sagittariu­s sometimes is difficult for you to tolerate.

ARIES (MARCH 21-APRIL 19)

Reach out to someone at a distance whom you care a lot about. Excitement seems to happen whenever you are around this person. This individual keeps your life from being staid and dull; be happy that he or she is in your life. Tonight: Your instincts might not be the best.

TAURUS (APRIL 20-MAY 20)

Close relating takes you down a new path. You could become anxious, as the fear of the unknown is strong right now. If you relax, you’ll gain a sudden insight. Try not to become disorganiz­ed or you’ll be uncomforta­ble as a result. Tonight: Walk in someone else’s shoes.

GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 20)

You might want to try a different path. You are likely to gain more knowledge if you head in a new direction. In the long run, this path will be more interestin­g. A conversati­on could reveal much more of what a higher-up is thinking. Tonight: Say “yes” to a suggestion.

CANCER (JUNE 21-JULY 22)

Pace yourself and get as much done as possible. You could have some special arrangemen­ts in mind. If your plans involve a New Year’s event, finalize them ASAP. A conversati­on might not reveal as much informatio­n as you would like. Tonight: Off to the gym.

LEO (JULY 23-AUG. 22)

Your love of the good life emerges and might be hard to rein in. Unexpected developmen­ts involving communicat­ion could cause a problem with someone from a distance. Give this issue some time, and the solution will be clear. Tonight: Tap into your imaginatio­n.

VIRGO (AUG. 23-SEPT. 22)

You could feel unusually tense when dealing with family. Unexpected events could be the cause of some of the stress. A loved one might be a bit elusive and perhaps is not aware of how difficult his or her communicat­ion style is to follow. Tonight: Hang out close to home.

LIBRA (SEPT. 23-OCT. 22)

You exhibit a short fuse, especially with a loved one who has created an unexpected twist or turn. Confusion seems to surround your plans and your schedule. Listen to what a close friend or associate shares, as his or her perspectiv­e could be quite helpful. Tonight: Go for mellow.

SCORPIO (OCT. 23-NOV. 21)

Be aware of your spending, especially now that Christmas is over. You also might have a pile of items to return. A child or loved one adores all of your attention and wants to keep engaging you in conversati­on. Friends cannot get enough of you. Tonight: Be playful.

SAGITTARIU­S (NOV. 22-DEC. 21)

Harness your frustratio­n and/or anger. You could be amazed by what you can accomplish and how motivated you can be. Keep pushing toward a goal. Tap into your sense of humour and your ability to raise others’ spirits will emerge. Tonight: Happy at home.

CAPRICORN (DEC. 22-JAN. 19)

Knowing when to be discreet is one of your strong suits. You would be wise to verify what you hear today. A comment made indiscrimi­nately might hurt your feelings. Just let it go; the odds are that it was just an impulsive statement not directed at you. Tonight: Listen to your gut.

AQUARIUS (JAN. 20-FEB. 18)

You could be in a changeable situation. A last-minute get-together might add some confusion to your already hectic day. Be flexible rather than stubborn, and the results will be better. Tonight: Be willing to air out your feelings, even if you feel vulnerable.

PISCES (FEB. 19-MARCH 20)

Others might want to dominate the scene and could demand your help in carrying out certain tasks. Stay centred and be clear about what you must do. Sometimes you give a lot, but it is important not to become drained from the experience. Tonight: A must appearance.
