HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Tuesday, April 4, 2017: This year you often wear your heart on your sleeve. People tend to misread your intentions. Be open to questions.

The stars show the kind of day you’ll have: 5-dynamic; 4-positive; 3-average; 2-so-so; 1-difficult

ARIES (March 21-April 19) ★★★★ You will share some news with a loved one, who, based on his or her reaction, seems rather surprised. You could be taken aback by this person’s response. Tap into your imagination for some help in dealing with this difference of opinion.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) ★★★ Your mind is likely to keep replaying the same story over and over. Take a walk, or throw yourself into some other kind of physical activity that helps your mind relax. Return calls and emails. You will hear some unusual news today or in the near future.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) ★★★★ You could surprise a friend, or vice versa. The unexpected is likely to run through your day. At the same time, you’ll realize that you are becoming more and more accustomed to these bouts of chaos. Feelings seem to be intense.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) ★★★★ You are full of fun, and you are able to see what is happening around you. You will come up with some strong ideas, but without testing them out first, you won’t know whether they are likely to backfire. Listen to others’ suggestions and feedback.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) ★★ You can’t seem to get a word in edgewise, as others seem to dominate right now. You also might not choose to be part of that energy. Clear out as much as you can, then call it a day. By sunset, you’ll sense a change and will feel more like yourself.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) ★★★★ You could be full of fun, despite the fact that a loved one seems to be acting in an unpredictable way. You might feel very concerned about issues that exist between you. Try to keep your cool, and decide to have a talk in the near future. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

★★★★ Someone is likely to showcase his or her unreliability. You could experience a whole range of emotions as you react to this person’s unpredictable display. Recognize how important it is to understand this person but also be as independent as possible.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) ★★★ You will need to keep your feelings under control. You tend to assume the role of the leader, and you also enjoy maintaining the status quo, at least for the most part. You might feel caught off guard when disruptions occur.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) ★★★★★ Your impulses might point you in a different direction from where you thought you were headed. Your knee-jerk reaction is far from subtle. Listen to what others have to say, even if it frustrates you. A solution will appear soon enough.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) ★★★★ Let a loved one know how you feel. You might get a moody or tearful response, but know that he or she will recuperate quickly. Plan to get together with this person very soon, and make sure you keep the lines of communication open.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) ★★★★ You could feel out of place, no matter what you are doing. Your generosity goes above and beyond, and others know it. Stay true to yourself, and you will be A-OK. Trust that you will land on your feet, no matter what happens.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) ★★★ Use the daylight hours to the max. Your creativity soars to an almost unprecedented level. Be aware of the costs of your ideas and actions. You do not want any surprises to appear and ruin a project or turn off a key person.
