Your Birthday for June 02, 2014

by Stella Wilder

Your Birthday | June 2nd, 2014

Born today, you are, deep down, a true Gemini native, in that there are two very distinct sides to your personality that often compete for dominance in your daily life. This may seem dangerous in ways, as you might expect to be helplessly buffeted between one extreme and another, but the truth is that you have what it takes to manipulate the competing sides of your psyche and turn that battle into something quite positive for you. The secret, of course, is that you must not choose sides or favor one aspect of your nature over the other; you must embrace both, value both and see the good in both. In that way, you can work with both to maximize your opportunities and rewards.

You don't like to be stuck, either literally or figuratively. If you feel you've been in one place too long, you are quick to move on. It doesn't always matter where you are heading, as long as you are moving in a new direction. This may make lasting relationships difficult at times, but it is a price you are willing to pay.

Also born on this date are: Zachary Quinto, actor; Martha Washington, U.S. first lady; Dana Carvey, actor and comedian; Jerry Mathers, actor; Dominic Cooper, actor; Dennis Haysbert, actor; Stacy Keach, actor; Johnny Weissmuller, Olympic swimmer and actor; Marvin Hamlisch, composer; Sally Kellerman, actress; Kyle Petty, auto racer; Sir Edward Elgar, composer; Ron Ely, actor; Pete Conrad, astronaut.

Your Birthday for June 01, 2014

by Stella Wilder

Your Birthday | June 1st, 2014

Born today, you have a great deal to offer the world and your fellow human beings, yet you may not always feel confident about this. Your search for your proper niche is likely to be a lifelong process. What you must learn, of course, is that your instincts are generally accurate, but it's your mind that can sometimes cloud the issues. You know, instinctively, when something is right for you and when something is not, but you have a habit of second-guessing yourself and thus standing in your own way. Even though others often praise you and admire your accomplishments, you tend to think that there is always something more to do, or that you can do it better.

Also born on this date are: Marilyn Monroe, actress; Morgan Freeman, actor; Heidi Klum, model and television personality; Andy Griffith, actor; Pat Boone, singer and actor; Alanis Morissette, singer; Brian Cox, actor; Frank Morgan, actor; Brigham Young, religious leader; Edward Woodward, actor; Nelson Riddle, composer and bandleader; Rene Auberjonois, actor.

You tend to be rather solitary, yet you are attracted to collaborative endeavors. You love being part of a team, but you may always wonder if your teammates appreciate you and your contributions. This, of course, is mere insecurity -- and ultimately an unnecessary burden.

MONDAY, JUNE 2

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- A conflict of interest may arise that requires you or a partner to change tack midstream.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Something is keeping you waiting, and you're letting it get to you. Take a deep breath and trust that patience will pay off.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Don't be so eager to share your point of view that you neglect that of another -- it may be every bit as valuable as your own.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Things are likely to be quite different today, even as you attempt to achieve the same results that were possible in the past.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You may find yourself fighting against trends that you do not -- and cannot -- get behind. This is a case where your stubbornness can pay off.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You can unmask someone who has been trying to deceive not only you, but those around you as well. The truth that is uncovered is valuable.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- The priorities you are working with are shifting in subtle ways, but your efforts, in the main, can remain unchanged.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- It may not be easy for you to determine what someone else is up to, but if you follow your own path, you can avoid any real danger.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- Your recent departure from the norm -- at work or at home -- is likely to demand a few quick, difficult decisions.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Travel is in the picture, but you may not be getting anywhere until you deal with a situation at home. Family members crave attention.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- Your sense of style is changing, but it is still very much your own. Have no doubt: You'll attract attention almost everywhere you go.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- The powers that be have something in store for you that you might consider a blessing or a curse, depending on your point of view.

Your Birthday for May 31, 2014

by Stella Wilder

Your Birthday | May 31st, 2014

Born today, you like taking on the big, the grand, the glorious and the epic, no matter how difficult it may be or how much homework it may require. The fact is, you feel more alive when you are grappling with the grandiose issues that are prevalent in endeavors that are themselves larger than life, and so that is the kind of endeavor you will seek out. You understand that it's not just a matter of taking part; what you really want is to know things. You understand that to do what you want to do, you must learn a great deal about not just what to do, but the how and the why, as well. You are, in effect, a student of life.

When it comes to love, you may never be quite as grounded as you are in your professional endeavors. While you may be painstaking and careful at all times when you are at work, you can be much more flighty and instinctive in love, letting gut reactions shape your decisions and actions.

Also born on this date are: Clint Eastwood, actor and director; Brooke Shields, model and actress; Colin Farrell, actor; Joe Namath, football player; Lea Thompson, actress; Corey Hart, singer; Walt Whitman, poet; Tom Berenger, actor; Chris Elliott, actor; Sharon Gless, actress; Don Ameche, actor; Jim Hutton, actor; Norman Vincent Peale, author.

SUNDAY, JUNE 1

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You comprehend things better than most at this time. There is a danger, however, that your head will assume dominance over your instincts.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You can unlock a certain key mystery that has kept others from doing what must be done. The answer may be remarkably simple!

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Try looking more deeply into an issue that is affecting you and those around you. What you come up with could possibly change everything!

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You're going to have to use care when navigating territory that others have made dangerous due to bad planning. You can come through it!

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- The story you have to tell is certainly credible, but there are things about it that others may have trouble believing at first. Be persistent.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You can put others at ease, and this will certainly be appreciated. Your unique style is welcome almost everywhere, by everyone.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You're gathering the facts, but the overall picture may still elude you. One piece of the puzzle seems to puzzle you more than others.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You can surprise others with a display of knowledge, but take special care to avoid looking like a showoff.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You don't want to repeat yourself, but you may have no choice when your initial effort doesn't get the notice you expected.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Keep plugging away, and you'll surely accomplish the goal you have set for yourself -- even though it may not have been realistic.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You may have trouble seeing a clear path in front of you, but once you start walking, your feet will surely find a way.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You're tempted to stop and study the terrain, but the best thing you can do is keep moving, no matter what appears before you.
