Happy Birthday! Put some energy into achieving your goals. Taking physical action will be required if you want to exceed expectations. Stay focused on what you know will work, not what someone else suggests. Trust your intelligence to guide you in the right direction. You will discover you have more to offer on your own and, therefore, more to gain. Your numbers are 7, 13, 20, 29, 32, 43, 48.

ARIES (March 21-April 19):

You’ll learn something if you take part in a community or family event. Listen to people who can offer insight into something that interests you; you will prosper from what you discover. Choose your words carefully when dealing with superiors. ★★★

TAURUS (April 20-May 20):

Figure out the best way to progress, and execute your plans with precision. Your ability to adapt as you go will make it that much easier to accomplish your goals. Don’t let what others do interfere or distract you. ★★★

GEMINI (May 21-June 20):

Control your emotions if you want to avoid making an emotional mistake. Take a step back and avoid making a decision that is likely to end in someone else’s favor. Don’t argue with anyone in a position of authority. ★★★

CANCER (June 21-July 22):

Firm up and get moving. Knowing what you want will give you the advantage you need when faced with competition or opposition. An unusual opportunity that comes from an unexpected source will change your belief in someone or something. ★★★

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Your enthusiasm will have a magical effect on others. Help a cause, but avoid taking jobs that don’t utilize your skills. You’ll do best if you delegate trivial jobs to others and focus on coordinating and presenting your vision. ★★★★
