Happy Birthday: Make a difference
by getting involved in a cause that will
benefit the environment. Your ability to

By Conrad Day
convince others to follow your lead and
take part in whatever you organize will
give your reputation a boost. Using
your past experience as your guide
and sticking to a budget will bring the
results you are looking for. Your numbers are 8, 11, 22, 24, 34, 38, 43.
ARIES (March 21-April 19): Let go
of the past. Don't dwell on what others
are doing. Put greater importance on
yourself and what you want to accomplish, and doors will open and gains
will be made. Love is in the stars.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Put an
end to any problems you have with
peers or relatives. Speak up, but don't
argue or force your opinion on others.
Clearing the air so that you can move
forward is what counts, not what others
think.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Sharing
your feelings can be painful, especially
if you or someone else is likely to get
hurt. Try to keep your life simple and
your conversations real. Overreacting
will lead to greater problems and an
uncertain future.
CANCER (June 21-July 22): If you
want something, find a way to make it
happen. Be creative and use your
imagination to turn a thought into a
reality. A partnership will undergo
some uncertainty or unexpected
changes, but in the end, you'll come
out a winner.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Make plans
with friends or your lover, or plan a day
of rest, relaxation and pampering.
Don't let the little things get to you
when you should be focusing on your
personal and professional dreams.
Romance is encouraged.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You'll
face problems at home if you get
involved in emotional conversations.
Turn the focus to changes you can
make to your work space or living
quarters. Avoid distractions. You'll feel
better if you are busy.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Make
personal changes that will boost your
happiness. Booking a pleasure trip or
getting together with someone you find
inspiring will give you the incentive to
stop procrastinating and start doing.
Love is on the rise.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): You
can lend a helping hand, but don't offer
to pay for someone else's mistakes or
let anyone take advantage of your
kindness. Your effort should be spent
making alterations that are conducive
to launching a new project or pursuit.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21):
Surprise everyone instead of waiting to
see who is going to oppose your decision. Don't share what you are doing
until after the fact. Personal changes
will not please everyone, but it's more
important to please yourself.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19):
Generosity will be your downfall. Don't
fall victim to a scam or someone's
hard-luck story. You'll be disappointed
if you make an impulsive move. Put
your money and your skills to good use
by doing something that will benefit
others.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): A
change in direction or vocation will turn
out well. Set up interviews or send out
your resume. Taking on a challenge
that will help you expand your qualifications is encouraged. Update your
appearance and skills, and you'll boost
your confidence as well.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Deal
with past problems before moving forward. Make amends or rethink what's
happened in the past and learn from
the mistakes you've made. Secrets are
likely to be revealed. Problems with
institutions and government agencies
are likely.
Birthday Baby: You are insightful,
impulsive and helpful. You are forwardthinking and entertaining.
