     Happy Birthday: Get in the groove and bend situations to work in your favor. You have the vision and charisma to get others to pay attention to you this year, so don’t stop short when you can have it all. Embrace the future with optimism and use your power of persuasion to see matters through to the end. Live life your way, and reward those who stand by your side. Your numbers are 3, 16, 21, 24, 32, 39, 45.

     ARIES (March 21-April 19): Don’t underestimate someone’s persistence. Temptation will cost you emotionally, financially, or physically. Think through situations from beginning to end and put your energy where it will do you good. It’s time to say no to poor choices and yes to personal growth and gains. 3 stars

     TAURUS (April 20-May 20): A change will be rejuvenating. Shake off what’s old and worn out and replace it with new ideas, enthusiasm, and a little help from your friends.

     GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Put your energy into learning and preparing for what you want to do next. Don’t take risks that lead to injury, illness, or damage to your reputation. Say no to anyone who wants to speak on your behalf. Someone will misinterpret if you aren’t specific. 3 stars

     CANCER (June 21-July 22): If you don’t like what you hear, remove yourself from the conversation. Getting into a battle is not worthwhile when you can use your time more efficiently. Focus on what you can achieve and make substitutes wherever necessary. Plan something special with someone you love. 4 stars

     LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Fly under the radar today. The less conspicuous you are, the more you will achieve. Focus on what you know and put a little muscle and money into your goal. Say no to temptation, laziness, and letting others choose for you. 2 stars

     VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Don’t give someone the chance to take over. Push your way to the front line and take responsibility for what happens next. Don’t downplay your skills and experience, thinking someone else can do a better job. Step up and alter what you see fit. 5 stars

     LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Reach across the table and say what’s on your mind. Discussions will help clear a path to new beginnings. Rethink how you want to handle joint ventures, shared expenses, or fundamental beliefs with those you connect with through necessity. Choose your cohorts using discretion and similarities. 3 stars

     SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Don’t let what others do upset or slow you down. Follow your instincts and take the path that offers you the highest return. It’s okay to do things differently or to stabilize your future rather than take a risk that makes you uncomfortable. 3 stars

     SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Keep an open mind, verify what you hear, and be reluctant to follow someone else when you can do for yourself. Make a change to how you live and handle your finances that offers long-term benefits. It’s best to save now and reap the rewards later. 3 stars

     CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Pay attention to domestic issues, cash flow, and keeping everything running smoothly. Don’t count on someone who talks big to come through for you.

     PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Put your best foot forward, make eye contact, and use your persuasive powers to draw attention to what you desire most.
