Happy birthday. Your popularity will surge. Wanted by many, you won't have time to show up everywhere you're invited. Your choices will be crucial. Try not to play the politics. Instead, do what makes you happy. October and November represent times of action and change, especially in your domestic arrangement.
ARIES (March 21-April 19): Should you take on something big or something small? A small project would give you an easy win and build your confidence, but a big project will have long-term benefits.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Don't let yesterday's success lull you into a state of satisfaction and comfort. Complacency will rob you of tomorrow's success, which is far more interesting than you might have guessed.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21): How can you stay objective? Start by reminding yourself about the benefits of objectivity: Distancing yourself from your problem allows you the perspective of wisdom.
CANCER (June 22-July 22): Different people bring out different aspects of your personality. You feel empowered around certain people and intimidated around others. That's natural and a sign of intelligence.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): The action of the day will be executed beautifully with the right preparation. Here's the order: observe, plan, breathe and then act. Don't forget the "breathe" part. It's crucial.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): The tone of the day: inclusive. They won't all seem to belong, but is that really for you to judge? Trust that the others in the mix will serve to sharpen you and make you better.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Do you mind if they call your performance "wacky"? Maybe you'll be honored by the review. You'll do what only a few can really understand, but don't let the numbers get you down. You're a true original.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): There is so much you might miss if you indulge in modesty and deflection. Be bold. Let things come to you. Let the sun hit you full in the face. Open your pockets and welcome the gold.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Do you still dislike a certain person? When they do something nice for you, is your first reaction suspicion? Your second reaction may be more accurate: the idea that you might have misjudged.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You haven't always had a choice in the company you keep, but now you do, and a happy life depends on exercising this choice. The people you choose to surround yourself with will make all of the difference.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Entitlement is the disease of the new generation, but today you'll only be able to beat them by joining them first. Assume you're special and act accordingly.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): You are right to check your first impression by seeking more information, but in today's case, it will reinforce what you already thought was true. Go with your gut.
