Born today, you are something of a mystery to others, for you don't seem to fit any single neat and tidy personality type. Rather, you display a great many traits that belong to seemingly contradictory types, yet you make this work well for yourself both personally and professionally -- though surely you will have had to learn how to do this over time. When young, you may have been irrepressibly impulsive, instinctive and emotional; when older, you will have learned how to combine the more mature traits of rationality and planning with those youthful characteristics, so that virtually nothing will be out of reach for you. When you set your sights on a goal, you are destined to achieve it -- provided that you remain disciplined in your pursuit of it and do not let yourself become erratic. Most of your impulses are quite positive; some, however, may prove self-destructive.
Though you would never have thought so in your youth, a long and happy marriage is perhaps the one thing in life that is most important to you -- even compared to some of your remarkable professional accomplishments. Being a good spouse and parent will likely bring you more pride and personal satisfaction than anything else.
Also born on this date are: Michael Phelps, Olympic swimmer; Mike Tyson, boxer; Lena Horne, singer; Leonard Whiting, actor; Susan Hayward, actress; Monica Potter, actress; Vincent D'Onofrio, actor; Lizzy Caplan, actress; Rupert Graves, actor; David Alan Grier, actor and comedian; Harry Blackstone Jr., magician; Anthony Mann, director.

SATURDAY, JULY 1
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You know more about a certain situation than anyone else. You, and you alone, can solve the problems that are cropping up.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Avoid incurring a friend's wrath by keeping a low profile and giving him or her the freedom to do what he or she thinks is right.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- A new mess can surely be cleaned up -- but not right away, perhaps, as you have other things to tend to first. Prioritize.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You'll spawn a few ideas that others will be quick to co-opt if you are not careful to protect them as your own. Don't be stingy, however.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Trust your judgment when it comes to making a final decision about doing something or not doing it. You know the situation best.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You can move more quickly than you had planned, though caution is advised when you hit your stride, as hazards may be amplified.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- A message that may mean very little to you when first received will become quite significant as the day progresses.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- Focus on things that lie just outside your immediate experience, as they are likely to affect you in important ways very soon.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You are keen on an idea floated by someone who usually doesn't speak up. He or she can use your support -- now and in the days ahead.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 20-Jan. 19) -- An idea or opportunity will come at the best possible time -- but if you do not react appropriately, it'll be as if it never came at all.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- Your understanding of a key situation will make all the difference to those who do not realize what is happening. Make your voice heard!
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- A friend's error will put you in a difficult position, but don't linger on it once you have solved the problem. Accept his or her apology!
