CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Zac Efron, 39; Esperanza Spalding, 42; Freida Pinto, 42; Wynton Marsalis, 65.

Happy Birthday: Choose your lifestyle, friends and surroundings with care. A change will turn out better than anticipated. Concentrate on meaningful relationships, loyalty and commitment. How you move forward and treat others will determine what you get in return. Taking time to understand what others want and need will help you make better decisions. A financial gain due to selling investments or things you no longer use will ease stress. Your numbers are 7, 18, 25, 32, 35, 41, 46.

ARIES (March 21-April 19: If you step away from certain situations, you’ll get a unique view of what’s possible. Protecting yourself without hurting others is the solution. Being the one to offer alternatives and to stand up for those who can’t will make a difference by raising awareness. A chance to leap to a profession that is more engaging and purposeful is within reach. 2 stars

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Curb bad habits, and refuse to let the little things get to you. When in groups, keeping a positive attitude will help deter troublemakers from goading you into an argument. Put more energy into taking care of personal business. Make sure all your important documents and agreements are up to date and that subscriptions you rarely use are canceled. 5 stars

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): You’ll thrive on change. Research, then develop a plan that fits your schedule and helps you reach your destination. Helping a meaningful cause will encourage you to be more giving with your time and money. An opportunity to use your domestic space to teach, host events or develop something you feel passionate about will change your life. 3 stars

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Use your connections to bring about change or to gain access to a group you want to join. Offer your time and expertise rather than cash donations. Starting a healthy lifestyle will be uplifting and draw compliments from someone special. Don’t let a discussion with a friend, relative or neighbor lead to a falling-out. 3 stars

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Tiptoe through conversations that can damage your reputation or cost you a friendship. Reflect before you speak, and verify your facts before you share. A problem at home will require an expert. Don’t try to repair something you aren’t qualified to fix. An emotional situation will develop regarding money, responsibilities or possessions you share with someone. 3 stars

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Trust yourself and your ability to get the facts. Suggestions you receive will fall short. Protect your assets, reputation and earning capability from those trying to implement changes that favor them more than you. Use your intelligence and connections to shut down plans that cost too much and offer little return. Spend more time with someone you deem special. 5 stars

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Be the stabilizer when chaos or discord surfaces. How you handle situations will be how others judge you. Situations that require mediation will be a perfect platform to demonstrate how valuable you are. Networking, talking and finding the best spotlight to display your worth will pay off in recognition and financial gains. Be the calm in the storm. 2 stars

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Breathe, relax and ponder over life choices. Let your physical condition determine whether you should stop or go. Whether you push yourself or are trying to heal, having a clear head and a plan in place are the best ways to approach what’s next. Physical improvements will pay off if you stick to a plan and don’t go overboard. 4 stars

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Start a home- or self-improvement fund, and start filtering money into your personal desires. Putting more energy toward expanding your expertise and vying for positions that will lead to higher income will change how you feel about your relationships, commitments and the lifestyle you want to pursue. Be honest regarding your expectations and who you want beside you. 3 stars

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Devise a plan that will help you meet both work and domestic demands. Listen to what others say, and assess the validity of how they interpret situations. Refuse to take on other people’s problems or debts. Don’t allow your feelings to affect common sense. Poor judgment will cost you physically, emotionally and financially. Know when to say no. 3 stars

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You can put emotional energy to good use — or you can overreact and be met with opposition. Put yourself first, walk away from drama and channel your energy into enhancing your skills, lowering your overhead and finding additional outlets for your talents. Socializing, networking and connecting with people who can help push your agenda is favored. 3 stars

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): It’s time to take care of yourself and your heart’s desires. Stop worrying about what everyone wants from you, and start manifesting what makes you feel good. Happiness is the prerequisite of doing what’s best for yourself. Freedom and harmony come when you take care of your satisfaction and you allow those you love to do the same. 4 stars

Birthday Baby: You are perceptive, distinct and accommodating. You are genuine and charitable.

1 star: Avoid conflicts; work behind the scenes. 2 stars: You can accomplish, but don’t rely on others. 3 stars: Focus and you’ll reach your goals. 4 stars: Aim high; start new projects. 5 stars: Nothing can stop you; go for gold.
