Happy Birthday: Your charm, grace and ability to turn nothing into something will help you see your way to victory this year. You can accomplish so much more by keeping your plans small, precise and fine-tuned. Change is upon you and, if you work diligently, you will celebrate great success. Open your heart to those who are dependent on you. Your numbers are 1, 7, 14, 20, 27, 36, 47
ARIES (March 21-April 19): Be observant. Sometimes the people most charismatic are not the real deal. Judge by what’s done, not by what’s promised. Don’t let a love matter hold you back.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Your ability to control a situation will be impressive but could upset someone who has been trying to pull a fast one on you. You will outperform any competition you face. Love is in the stars.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): If you look like you know what you are doing, people will give you the benefit of a doubt, allowing you enough time to figure things out. Make some personal changes that help your outlook and add to the comfort of your home.
CANCER (June 21-July 22): A unique way of handling matters that influence your home and family will put you in the spotlight. A power play that can influence your future professionally must be put into play. Believe in yourself.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Don’t sit back when action is required. Emotional issues stemming from past experiences will arise. Utilize what you learned in order to come out on top now. Don’t argue.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Dig deep and find out all you can about a situation that can affect your future. Someone will withhold information or try to mislead you. Back away from anyone around whom you don’t feel comfortable. Time is on your side.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Open your mind to an unusual but interesting opportunity. Take precautions while traveling; mishaps will occur if you are preoccupied with the events that interest you. Your intuition regarding someone from your past will be correct.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Don’t let anyone take over or push you in a direction that doesn’t suit you. A bold attack on whatever project or pursuit you have in mind will draw interest and help you get things moving.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Stay on top of matters by checking in to see what everyone else is up to. If you lose sight of your goals, no one else will pick up where you left off. Emotional upset can be expected if you haven’t been completely honest about the way you feel. Stop running.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You can kick start a project or idea you have with a little extra effort and a last-minute change. Your ability to coordinate and delegate will come in handy and make you look like a hero. You need a change of location or a forum to launch your plans.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Pay more attention to what you say, what you do and with whom you associate. Someone is likely to call your bluff. Put your energy into something worthwhile that allows you to grow mentally, personally and emotionally.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Watch your back. Someone you think you can trust may not have your best interests at heart. Be ready to fight back. It’s better to start over than to give up too much. An emotional encounter must not stop you from following your own path.
Birthday Baby: You are aggressive and have charm and originality. You refuse to settle for anything less than what you want. You are a strong competitor.
