LITTLE ROCK — Happy birthday.You've never been a passive person, but this year, you're even more forceful and courageous. Hard work, especially physical, brings about your brilliance. You'll become a showman of sorts this month and will put on a magnificent production.Your confidence attracts romance. Someone invests in you in June. Cancer and Gemini adore you.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): You are still punishing yourself for some minor error. Get it off of your conscience. Admit the error in a journal or quietly to yourself and then forgive yourself and give yourself a hug.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20):You'll enjoy dramatic people and be quite entertained by colorful and fantastic stories. However, those who are always trying to one-up your experiences will get tiring after a while.Vary your company.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21): It would be wonderful to have a deliciously philosophical conversation with one as high-minded as you. However, most will prefer to stick to the social basics of weather and breezy news. Seek a fellow Gemini.

CANCER (June 22-July 22): You'll be tough on yourself, but not others. And actually, the others would learn and grow from your suggestions. Find a way to gently state your criticism and give it freely.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Unless you make efforts to throw others off track, it will be rather obvious whom you favor.You'll give plenty of leeway to those you love most, not requiring them to stick to your personal rules and standards.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): What you have in mind will seem extravagant to some, but they don't understand your process.

You start with huge and unreasonable ideas and cull from them what is actually possible. This keeps you from living too small.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Shop, but don't buy just yet.The time you put into research will save you a considerable amount of money. On your quest to becoming an informed consumer, you could very well reach the status of "expert." SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): You'll be searching for the best deal. Try not to be emotional about a purchase, even if it's a large one. Wait until you are feeling detached from the outcome before you negotiate.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You'll be winning people over and you don't require much time to do it. You sense in the first minute whether the other person will buy. You could close a deal over coffee or in an elevator.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You do need some nurturing and you'll be wise to keep your distance from environments that are too harsh. Once you feel safe and cared for, you'll return to your usual level of emotional strength.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): If everyone is doing it, you don't want to.What is the point of living like a commoner when you are obviously so unique? Your unusual activities will bring you much joy.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): A friend may attempt to drop his emotional baggage at your door to see if you'll pick it up.

Follow the rule of the airport: Only handle the bags that are yours.
