Your Birthday | August 20th, 2014

Born today, you are not the kind to be so enamored of the past that you are unable to charge forward into the future with enthusiasm and courage. Even so, you always maintain valuable ties with tradition and heritage that allow you to strengthen and bolster your plans with the best that others have accomplished before. You know that you, and what you do, are products of the good and earnest work that others have performed before you, and you also know that it is your responsibility to add to that body of work in a way that is valuable, memorable and just as lasting as that which has come before. You see yourself as one in a long line of contributors to human evolution.

While all of this may sound rather dour and serious, the truth is that you are nothing if not vibrant, imaginative, fun-loving and often quite cheeky in your behavior and attitudes. You like to take others by surprise, and you are perhaps happiest when you are able to surprise yourself above all others!

Also born on this date are: Amy Adams, actress; Robert Plant, singer; Al Roker, TV personality; Isaac Hayes, singer-songwriter and actor; Ron Paul, politician; Benjamin Harrison, U.S. president; Don King, boxing promoter; Connie Chung, TV journalist; H.P. Lovecraft, author; Ray Wise, actor; Jacqueline Susann, author; Peter Horton, actor.

Your Birthday | August 19th, 2014

Born today, you are never one to let your sights stray very far from anything that has become a personal goal. You are single-minded and quite tenacious, and you will, more often than not, achieve your goals despite what may seem like astronomical odds stacked against you. You consider yourself a student of human nature, and the world itself your classroom. You pay close attention to all that goes on, not only in your immediate surroundings, but also much farther afield, where you suspect the really important things are happening! Ultimately, you can be confident that wherever you are, and whatever you are doing, you will be the center of the most important goings-on!

You do, occasionally, suffer from bouts of overconfidence, which can lead to decisions and actions that you may regret -- not always for long, but often quite deeply. Still, you have a way of learning from your mistakes and applying the lessons learned to your subsequent endeavors.

Also born on this date are: John Stamos, actor; Bill Clinton, U.S. president; Matthew Perry, actor; Coco Chanel, designer; Orville Wright, aviation pioneer; Kyra Sedgwick, actress; Jonathan Frakes, actor; Kevin Dillon, actor; Gene Roddenberry, producer; Lee Ann Womack, singer; Peter Gallagher, actor; Clay Walker, singer; Erika Christensen, actress; Gerald McRaney, actor; Adam Arkin, actor; Fred Thompson, actor and politician; Jill St. John, actress; Willie Shoemaker, jockey.

WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 20

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You're ready to take advantage of someone else's mistakes, but take care that you don't come off as being callous or mercenary.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You will want to pay close attention to the signals your body and mind are sending you. Some activities should be avoided as a result.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- An old-fashioned approach can serve you quite well. Not everything should be done in the most newfangled way possible!

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You may become aware of some distant rumblings that begin to affect you almost immediately, though evasive action won't be required yet.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You may find yourself dealing with an issue that has suddenly gotten much more complicated than it was in the past.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Others will notice a difference in the way you approach even routine affairs. Your focus and intentions have shifted somewhat.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You mustn't make the mistake of thinking that completing a current task means the project itself is complete. You have much to do yet!

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You'll enjoy some time alone, but when that time expires, you'll feel the need to reconnect with loved ones and family members.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You may come to a new understanding of issues that have been sneaking up on you for a while now. You can regain control, surely.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Certain endeavors may be more complicated for you in the days to come because of a personal adjustment you are compelled to make.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You can approach a key issue directly or come at it from a different direction entirely. Which you do depends on your state of mind.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- Focus on style today, and substance will take care of itself for the most part. During evening hours, you're introduced to something new.

Your Birthday for August 18, 2014

Your Birthday | August 18th, 2014

Born today, you are likely to surprise many as you grow from one whose prospects are strictly limited -- and in whom others have little confidence -- to one who is self-assured, capable and always willing and able to take the bull by the horns and win a decisive victory against astonishing odds. What is it that will make the difference between the youth you were and the strong, formidable adult you become? It is nothing so much as vision; when you are young it may not be clear, but rather hazy and general, and only later as you develop will its focus sharpen and become a clear picture of something you can pursue.

Also born on this date are: Patrick Swayze, actor; Edward Norton, actor; Robert Redford, actor and director; Roberto Clemente, baseball player; Christian Slater, actor; Malcolm Jamal Warner, actor; Denis Leary, actor and comedian; Roman Polanski, filmmaker; Meriwether Lewis, explorer; Shelley Winters, actress; Madeleine Stowe, actress; Martin Mull, actor; Rosalynn Carter, U.S. first lady.

You are never ignorant of what is going on in the world, and though you may sometimes feel that you can do very little to change or improve things, you also know that this is no reason for you to do nothing! Whether it is little or much, you are always eager to do what you can.

To see what is in store for you tomorrow, find your birthday and read the corresponding paragraph. Let your birthday star be your daily guide.

TUESDAY, AUGUST 19

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Your ability to see in the dark -- literally and figuratively -- will serve you well today. You can discern things that others cannot.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- It's time to dedicate yourself more fully to a certain project that has required only part-time involvement prior to this.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You'll receive news that has you counting your blessings and making plans that only yesterday you thought would be impossible for you.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You're waiting as patiently as possible for something to happen, but as the suspense mounts, you may find it hard to keep still!

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Your day will progress according to someone else's plan until you are able to regain control and adjust things to suit your own needs.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Others may be surprised at your ability to accomplish much with little or no fanfare. Indeed, the element of surprise is a valuable tool!

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You'll understand what others are up to without having to do much in the way of research or investigation. It's an instinctive call.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You can expect a major shift on the home front, which has you making new plans that surprise even you.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You'll want to prepare yourself for a coming challenge as much as you possibly can -- and as quickly as you can. Be efficient!

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You don't want to let your emotions run away with you. Keep your feelings in check until the time is right to reveal them.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You can avoid minor irritations simply by taking the path of least resistance. This approach won't work for long, however!

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You're in a transitional phase of sorts, so things may not seem quite as defined as you would like. Soon, you'll have your ducks in a row.
