Happy birthday. You have more patience than in years past, and because of your maturity, you will be given important responsibilities. Your personal life will thrive as you display loyalty and courage.
ARIES (March 21-April 19):The thing that was difficult to obtain will be even harder to keep. That probably won’t discourage you, nor should it.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20):You don’t have to make a huge gesture, but this is a good time to deepen your commitment to a partner in some way.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21): You’ll surprise yourself by taking action you didn’t plan and wouldn’t have expected from yourself. Who you are is always changing to meet new challenges and experiences.
CANCER (June 22-July 22):You would do well to follow the principles of your grandparents. Something about the way they ordered their lives will work for you now.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Complaining may feel good in the moment, but today you sense that it will do nothing to solve your problem.You’d rather deal with things by going directly to the source.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): People make mistakes. You make mistakes, too, and that’s to be expected from time to time. Offer yourself some of that forgiveness you so generously afford others.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Guidance from unseen forces will help you see the way.You’re willing to do what isn’t fun as long as you know it’s the right thing to do. The right thing to do actually feels better than fun.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): A not-so-great book with an attractive cover is more likely to be opened than a stellar book with a bland cover. Your attention to appearances makes people want to know you.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Some secrets are fun. But most secrets aren’t so fun and should be shared in order to diffuse their ominous power.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): A carefully laid plan will be helpful, but you can’t rely on it entirely. Stay flexible, and you’ll turn difficulties into successes.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): It seems your work requires one small risk after another today. Like a turtle, you seem to only be able to progress when you’re sticking your neck out.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20):You have many interests and far fewer beliefs. This is a good way to live, as too many beliefs are like walls that separate you from the wonder and adventure of the unknown.
