Birthday Baby: You are vigilant, precise and patient. You are strict and demanding. You hide your emotions but feel deeply about things. You are insightful and a natural leader.
Happy Birthday: You've got everything going for you as long as you don't overspend during the first half of the year. After that, it's smooth sailing with lots of opportunities. Your drive and ambition will dominate and invite opposition -- but nothing you cannot handle. This is a time for learning and applying what you know. Your numbers are 2, 5, 16, 20, 26, 37, 44
ARIES (March 21-April 19): Being realistic and setting reasonable goals will take the edge off the stress you are feeling. Anger will only lead to frustration. Patience will be your savior. 3 stars
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Conversations will be revealing. Do something nice for someone you love. A work-related project needs to be finished before the end of the year. Make changes that give you more time or space to maneuver. 3 stars
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Discipline will be required. Giving in to someone trying to bully you won't help your emotional well-being. Do what suits you best. Take a quick look at personal papers that need to be signed or put in the mail before the year comes to a close. 5 stars
CANCER (June 21-July 22): Being at home may make you feel safe but it isn't going to protect you from an emotional issue. Focus on the bright side of life, not the dark. If you are fun to be with, it will be difficult for anyone to become angry with you. 2 stars
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Get together with peers, friends or neighbors. The information you discover will help you make a decision regarding travel, a move or what additional skills you need to get ahead. One of your colleagues may be jealous of you. 4 stars

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Sticking around home will leave you open to disgruntled individuals who just want to complain. You can have a far better time if you shop, go to the spa or gym or get involved in a challenging activity. 3 stars

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Watch how you handle people. A change of plans may not suit you but arguing won't help. Unexpected events will develop that will influence the way you feel and will affect your emotional well-being. Keep your thoughts to yourself. 2 stars
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Just because someone expects you to make changes doesn't mean you have to do so. Consider every angle of a situation you face and do what's best for you and the ones you love. Take care of a problem caused by someone from your past. 5 stars
