HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Sunday, May 16, 2021: You are reserved, and yet you have an appealing, almost dashing style that impresses others. You are likable in a friendly way; nevertheless, people know you’re serious about what you are doing. (No question about that.) You’ll be pleased to know that in your year ahead, you might get a promotion, kudos or praise from your peers. Success awaits you!

Today you are sensitive to the moods of others. This is why you want to do whatever you can to make their life easier. Tonight: Avoid power struggles.
