Born today, you don't always know how to play it safe when danger is on the horizon, and as a result, you may have to weather more in the way of risk and harm than most others born under your sign -- or any sign, for that matter. It's not so much that you throw caution to the wind, but rather you usually do not feel the need to employ caution in the first place, you are so generally secure and confident. To suggest that bad turns usually take you quite by surprise is something of an understatement; you almost always expect things to go your way, and when they don't, you have to work hard to adjust your outlook accordingly.
You accept advice from others on a careful, selective basis -- and it is anyone's guess whether you will actually follow it. When you do, it is usually because it is something you have already considered yourself; you're not one to take advice that you had not already thought of!
Also born on this date are: Robert Ludlum, author; Ralph Waldo Emerson, philosopher and essayist.

SUNDAY, MAY 26
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- The difference between fantasy and reality may not be easy to discern for a while today -- and each may be a part of the other for a time.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You may have to resign yourself to a certain truth that a rival has uncovered and that you cannot possibly deny.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- The reactions you get from those you know best are likely to surprise you today. What ultimately happens depends on your willingness to adjust.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- What happens first today is likely to determine a great deal about the rest of the day. You must be ready to interpret things quickly.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You can help someone achieve something he or she has been trying to do for quite some time, but you must be sure your motives are pure.
