LITTLE ROCK — Happy birthday. You are conscious of the many treasures in your life, and your gratitude leads to happiness. A special relationship develops through the next seven weeks. Family events are sometimes raucous fun; other times, tender moments.
ARIES (March 21-April 19): Some people are content to be big fishes in little ponds.
Not you. The itch to swim upstream is, like it or not, something you were born with.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Communication skills are in top form. Your loved ones know what you need and what you are able to give them.Your co-workers know where they stand and what’s expected of them. All will run smoothly.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21): You have a brand-new favorite song. You haven’t had a new one of those in a while. Why do you think that is? The heavens just reached down and handed you a reason to be happy. And you accepted.
CANCER (June 22-July 22): You should be wearing epaulettes, because you’re definitely captaining your vessel right now.You have somewhere you’re going, and no one rallies the deckhands like you do. Forward ho!
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Taking stock of your situation, you find there are some negative aspects, but much more to be happy about. Review what is going right.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): An exciting opportunity might require something of a sacrifice - not by you, but by someone you love. Know that whatever you decide, the working it out will bring you both closer together.

Now that you’ve stepped out of it, the ground has become firmer and your pace has quickened.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Making fun of a very serious topic isn’t always bad. Sometimes it’s a way of coping with something that might otherwise be unbearable. Keep that in mind when a friend’s levity seems woefully misplaced.
