Your Birthday for November 11, 2013

by Stella Wilder

Your Birthday | November 11th, 2013

Born today, you like living on the edge just a bit, daring fate to take you on directly. You put your energies into those grand endeavors that challenge others' notions of what can and should be done, and by whom. It is likely that this approach will hold you in good stead throughout much of your lifetime. You should be able to score the kinds of successes that make others envious -- or, in many cases, that compel others to move intentionally into your orbit so that they can enjoy being a part of what is going on in your life. You are likely to stake a claim to that which is lasting and remembered, and you know how to enjoy a rare kind of lasting contentment.

You do a great many things very well, and you are not always bound to stick to one thing at a time. Indeed, you may be found doing one thing expertly while preparing to do another -- and yet another -- simultaneously. You like to make changes as swiftly as some others change their clothes. You live your life for yourself and few others.

Also born on this date are: Demi Moore, actress; Barbara Boxer, U.S. senator; Leonardo DiCaprio, actor; Jonathan Winters, comedian; Kurt Vonnegut Jr., author; George S. Patton, U.S. military leader.

Your Birthday for November 10, 2013

by Stella Wilder

Your Birthday | November 10th, 2013

Born today, you are at your best when the world, and the people in it, are agreeing with your outlook, your tastes and your principles, and letting you move through life in a manner that suits you at all times. Clearly, then, you are not always at your best since it is very rare that circumstances will so favor you as you would prefer! Still, you are able to overcome adversity and work within parameters that are not always optimal, and you can often succeed where others have only failed. What's your secret? No secret, really -- you will learn, by facing adversity again and again, to work hard for what you want under less-than-auspicious circumstances.

You are a quick thinker with a razor-sharp wit. You are able to use words to your advantage at all times, expressing yourself in a unique way that comes naturally. This allows you to say precisely what you mean without the risk of being misunderstood. Indeed, communication is one of your greatest skills.

Also born on this date are: Brittany Murphy, actress; MacKenzie Phillips, actress; Donna Fargo, singer; Tim Rice, lyricist; Roy Scheider, actor; Richard Burton, actor; Claude Rains, actor; Martin Luther, religious reformer.

MONDAY, NOVEMBER 11

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You'll be affected by something you cannot control -- at least during the first part of the day. Later, you can do what you want to do.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You can perform well despite facing certain circumstances that others would call unfavorable. Focus on the positive and stay the course.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- The little things add up, and you'll surely be glad that you were in a certain place at a certain time. Others call you "lucky."

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You may be eager to take advantage of a "sure thing," but soon you'll realize that there are certain "unsure" variables to deal with.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You may be offered a deal from someone who is in a position to do you a good turn, professionally. Rearrange your schedule and say "yes"!

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Anything you start had better be finished by daylight's end, for you may not be able to continue once night falls.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You'll be tempted to drop one creative endeavor for another after you realize that this new project provides more opportunities to shine.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You may be racing against the clock for the first part of the day. If you win that race, you'll be able to enjoy some recreation.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You may not be present at an event you have been looking forward to, but what you do instead might be very much worth it.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You may question the decisions made by someone in charge, but are you really in a position to do anything else?

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You will feel compelled to try something entirely new, but you had better tell those who accompany you, lest they be surprised.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- The path you take may be both exciting and dangerous, but the profit it brings you can propel you forward at a quicker pace.

Your Birthday for November 09, 2013

by Stella Wilder

Your Birthday | November 9th, 2013

Born today, you are able to walk right into an impossible situation and work a kind of magic that allows you to prevail when others before you found only disappointment -- or worse. You are hardworking and ambitious, and you never let the naysayers dissuade you from doing something once you have set your mind on it. You will move forward with confidence even when those who have gone before you provide you with warning after warning that what you are planning simply cannot be done. Some react well to your strong and confident approach, while others criticize you for being unrealistic or even quixotic in your outlook. Your actions serve as your best retort.

You are curious about the world around you, and you sometimes let yourself get too emotionally involved in the affairs of others. You must learn to recognize this when it happens and to step away quickly in order to protect yourself from any unnecessary and lasting emotional injury.

Also born on this date are: Nick Lachey, singer; Eric Dane, actor; Susan Tedeschi, singer; Lou Ferrigno, bodybuilder and actor; Tom Fogerty, musician; Carl Sagan, astronomer; Spiro Agnew, U.S. vice president; Hedy Lamarr, actress.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Another crossroads is fast approaching, but you may be able to avoid making any difficult decisions if you follow another's directions.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Your focus should be on those who look to you for guidance. Don't ignore their needs or their desires, as you share many of these yourself.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You may be forced to do something that you don't want to do -- or perhaps it only feels that way. Are you making the right decisions?
