      CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Miranda Cosgrove, 33; Cate Blanchett, 57; Tim Roth, 65; George Lucas, 82.

     Happy Birthday: Share only what’s necessary. Your energy, time and expertise are best directed at what you want to accomplish. Don’t invite interference or rely on those who have let you down in the past. Maintain solidarity, patience and a direct view of what’s important to you. Surround yourself with those you know and trust to deliver what you want in a timely manner. Your numbers are 3, 11, 19, 21, 33, 36, 42.

     ARIES (March 21-April 19): Your speed, positive attitude and what goal you accomplish will make others pause in wonder. Put your talents to work for you, and the sky’s the limit. Don’t fear being different or difficult if it means swaying others to see things your way. Put in the time and effort, and command attention. 3 stars

     TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Say no to responsibilities that don’t belong to you. Your time is best allocated to something that makes a difference to you, your attitude and your personal, physical and financial well-being. Dig in and take care of necessary preliminaries. Haste makes waste. Use intelligence to simplify your plans. 3 stars

     GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Own whatever situation you find yourself in, and implement positive change. Volunteer for a position of leadership where you can make a difference to those you reach out to. Stand by your word, and something you start now will manifest into personal and financial growth. A physical change and additional strength require smart decisions. Don’t overdo it. 4 stars

     CANCER (June 21-July 22): Stand your ground, but don’t invite unwarranted trouble. Overreacting will be to your detriment, especially when dealing with professional associates or those you count on for assistance. A financial change is apparent, but first, you’ll require insight into how to make your money grow. Indulgence is the enemy, and discipline is the answer. 2 stars

     LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Gather information that helps you find your happy place. A lifestyle change that helps you spend less and experience more will change your mindset and give you something to look forward to. Picking up pastimes that make you feel alive without a cost attached will point you in a positive direction that attracts people who enrich your life. 5 stars

     VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You’ll retain information. Set yourself up to learn, research and integrate with teachers and those who can assist you in padding your brain, attributes and physical skills with new possibilities and capabilities. The changes you make will grab the attention of someone in a position to further your interests. 3 stars

     LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Be careful what you agree to or promise. Situations will escalate quickly if you aren’t precise regarding your wants and desires. Pay attention to detail, and question anything that appears problematic. Get what you want in writing, and once you feel comfortable, turn business into a social affair and develop your partnerships to suit your needs. 3 stars

     SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Explore, discover and grow. Reach out to those who can provide vision and clarity to some of the questions you have pertaining to what you want to do next. Whether you are eager to learn or engage in technology that can make your life or skills useful moving forward, the improvements will pay off by keeping you competitive. 3 stars

     SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Stand up and be counted. Take an energetic approach to life, love and your happiness, but stay within your budget. You don’t have to impress anyone by paying their way or trying to buy affection. Be yourself — fun-loving, kind and gracious — and the returns will be everything you hope for. Romance and personal gains are favored. 5 stars

     CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): One step forward and three steps back. Take a moment, reorganize your thoughts and map out a plan that’s doable. Be aware of those eager to stand in your way or take advantage of your time, experience and skills. Staying one step ahead of anyone who challenges you will play in your favor. 2 stars

     AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Don’t dawdle when you have so much to achieve. Consider how you earn your living or manage your money and what you can do to up your game. A change at home will encourage you to lower your overhead and replace some of your costly expenditures with something more reasonable. Sell off surplus items, and ease stress. 4 stars

     PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Protect yourself from unsavory situations that can result in debt or liability. Taking on too much or overpaying for something will set you back. Study your options when time and money are at stake. Request compensation or alternative options that lower your costs and meet your demands. Stick close to home in order to protect your assets. 3 stars

     Birthday Baby: You are sensitive, accommodating and excessive. You are opportunity-driven and friendly.
