THE LAST WORD IN ASTROLOGY BY EUGENIA LAST
CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Alysa Liu, 21; Shawn Mendes, 28; Countess Vaughn, 48; Dustin Hoffman, 89.
Happy Birthday: You have the discipline to declutter and take care of unfinished business and personal desires. Reconnect with people you lost touch with, and establish priorities that soothe your soul and offer clarity. The sky’s the limit when you decide to do something. Physical and intellectual improvements will boost your ego and encourage you to reach for the stars. Love, romance and taking responsibility for your happiness are yours to discover. Your numbers are 8, 15, 21, 28, 32, 36, 47.
ARIES (March 21-April 19): Your timing is in jeopardy. When in doubt, take a pass and wait for solid evidence that you can complete what you start. Impatience is your downfall, and letting others talk you into premature action will leave you in an unstable position. You’re better off evaluating, looking inward and taking care of your physical and emotional wellness. Pamper yourself. 4 stars
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Judging others will lead to regret. Weigh the pros and cons before you make a commitment. Address your financial situation and how you earn and handle your cash. Now is not the time to upset your stability or take a risk that can jeopardize your position. A behind-the-scenes activity where you can fine-tune your plans in secret will pay off. 3 stars
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Positive change is heading your way. Be ready to take advantage of an opportunity to expand your mind and your wisdom and to beef up your credentials. Everything you do that’s geared toward life improvements will lead to greater comfort and joy. Share what you experience, and learn with the ones you love. Your effort will surpass your expectations. 3 stars
CANCER (June 21-July 22): Recap before you move on. It’s important to understand what went wrong and what went right before you launch something new. Learning is half the battle when you’re trying to make your way forward. Choose to put yourself first and to nurture the things about yourself you cherish the most. Self-love helps formulate good relationships with others. 3 stars
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Think big, but live within your means. Having integrity and following your passion will lead to something meaningful. Choose to address what concerns you and to make a difference. How you conduct your actions and address situations will set you on a journey that fulfills you mentally, physically and emotionally. Romance is in the stars. 4 stars
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Revisit stats, facts and how people react. Don’t take anything or anyone for granted. Be willing to meet in the middle when you want to get things done — or be prepared to go it alone. Distance yourself from situations that require you to take on a shared expense or workload. Your work ethic will not align well with others. 2 stars
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): It’s what you do that counts. Get the lowdown and look for an alternative that fits your capabilities and encourages you to move forward with confidence. Trying to push through an agenda that doesn’t sit right with you will not live up to your expectations. Alter your surroundings to make your life manageable and your promises doable. 5 stars
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Trust your instincts, research and be observant. Your highest returns will come from obtaining as much information as possible and moving forward in a direction that serves you best. Distance yourself from people who press you to do something that doesn’t fit your agenda or standards. Self-preservation is in your best interest. Strive for personal growth and perfection. 3 stars
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You have more going for you than you realize. Take advantage of whatever comes your way. Don’t let laziness set in when accomplishment is what you should be striving to achieve. Set your sights on what you want, and don’t let up until you are victorious. Positive change, romance and a healthy lifestyle are yours to discover. 3 stars
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Measure your achievements by how they make you feel, not by how others respond. Taking care of your needs will help build confidence and encourage you to trust your instincts. Don’t buy into someone else’s dream; lead the way. Use your intelligence, set high standards and refuse to put up with those trying to take advantage of you. 3 stars
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Take a deep breath, release it and begin again. It’s up to you how you take care of yourself. You have plenty to offer and to gain if you are true to yourself and to what concerns you. Refuse to let emotions and anger consume you when a creative outlet and self-improvement are the paths to happiness and personal growth. 5 stars
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Easy does it. You’ll be tempted to join in a change someone suggests for the wrong reason. Refuse to let your heart dictate what you do next. Partnerships may not be as even as you think. Gather the facts and size up what your gains or losses might be before you agree to something you may regret. 2 stars
Birthday Baby: You are receptive, caring and proactive. You are intense and persistent.
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.
