Your Birthday for September 07, 2014

by Stella Wilder

Your Birthday | September 7th, 2014

Born today, you seem to be wholly normal, but there is an aspect of your complex personality that, when stimulated, causes you to do and say things that others would never expect you to do or say. The results can be hilarious, productive and profitable, or simply unacceptable and in bad taste. You can never really be sure, either, which it's going to be, so you must always have plans in the works for undoing any damage that results from your unusual behavior and for maximizing the good that results when you are in sync with the rest of the world. You are not to be feared in any way, but not everyone knows that, and the unpredictable can be fearful to some.

You are likely to be the center of attention on many occasions. Others are sure to wonder what it is really like to be you, but you are far less enthralled by who you are than anyone else, and the thought that you are admired or imitated only makes you laugh. You know just how down-to-earth and ordinary you can really be.

Also born on this date are: Buddy Holly, singer; Queen Elizabeth I of England and Ireland; Corbin Bernsen, actor; Evan Rachel Wood, actress; Toby Jones, actor; Chrissie Hynde, singer; Julie Kavner, actress; Tom Everett Scott, actor; Elia Kazan, filmmaker.

MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 8

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You are hungry for something that only a certain someone can provide. Now may not be the time to ask for it, however.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You must resist the temptation to get on your soapbox and regale those around you with opinions and pontifications. Play it cool.

Your Birthday for September 06, 2014

by Stella Wilder

Your Birthday | September 6th, 2014

Born today, you are likely to elevate yourself and those around you through sheer force of will. While you have talent, vision, foresight and the ability to build much from little, it is the power of your personality and a stubborn insistence that you will prevail that will get you places more than any combination of skills, plans or luck. Indeed, you don't really believe in luck, and though you certainly cannot control the stars' effect on your life, you can surely live in a way that maximizes what you have been given and minimizes any weaknesses or liabilities that have come along with it.

You know how to communicate well with all manner of individuals -- from the most common to the most exalted of people. You are rarely anxious when you find yourself in new or strange surroundings or situations, though you do recognize that a little nervous energy can be a good thing!

Also born on this date are: Jeff Foxworthy, comedian; Chris Christie, New Jersey governor; Macy Gray, singer; Swoosie Kurtz, actress; Jo Anne Worley, actress and comedian.

SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 7

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You'll enjoy real benefits after fearing that you have put just a few too many eggs into a single basket. Luck has been on your side.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You're curious about what others are saying about you, but that kind of information comes to you very irregularly.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You can make an impact on the lives of those around you simply by doing what comes naturally and saying what is in your heart.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You can prove your inner strength and resilience as you recover quickly from something others would consider a trauma.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You're eager to know what's going on behind the scenes, but you will have to venture into unfamiliar territory.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You can provide others with the support they need, even from a distance. Putting in a good word at the right moment makes all the difference.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You will find a way to be positive throughout most of the day, even when others succumb to what they consider a "downer."

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You'll come upon a challenge that takes you very much by surprise, as you had expected to encounter little or no resistance.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- A lack of enthusiasm on your part needn't keep you from accomplishing something memorable -- even though it's not a priority to you.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Minor physical ills must not be ignored, or they may develop into something significant before you know it. Take care of yourself!

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- A phase you have long feared is upon you, but it's not likely to last long. You mustn't let it dictate all that happens to you.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You'll have a chance to try something new, but you can also inject something traditional that gives you real confidence.

Your Birthday for September 05, 2014

by Stella Wilder

Your Birthday | September 5th, 2014

Born today, you are likely to have far more natural talent than others born under your sign, but this doesn't necessarily mean that you will be any more successful than they. Indeed, what it means is that you will have to work even harder to shape that remarkable talent into workable, bankable skill that you can maintain over the long haul! Once you have staked your claim to fame and fortune, however, you are likely to enjoy it for quite some time -- until you decide that you have had enough and choose to call it quits. You must take care, however, that you aren't tempted by the thought of quitting prematurely, for that would be an unfortunate turn of events for yourself and for the world at large.

Your personal life is nobody's business; like the vast majority of Virgo natives, you work hard to maintain your privacy. On one hand, this allows you to enjoy life out of the spotlight, and on the other, it allows you to maintain a certain element of mystery that you very much enjoy!

Also born on this date are: Freddie Mercury, singer; Michael Keaton, actor; Rose McGowan, actress; Raquel Welch, actress; Bob Newhart, actor and comedian; George Lazenby, actor; John Cage, composer; Jesse James, outlaw; Cathy Guisewite, cartoonist.

SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 6

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Any sort of negligence can lead to trouble, so be sure that you pay adequate attention to all developments, expected and unexpected.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Congratulations may be in order by day's end after you work closely with one who delivers the goods and opens the door to lasting success.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You don't have to pretend to be happy and sociable, but neither should you assault others with any negative thoughts and feelings.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- A fantasy comes true, but you may not be able to enjoy it fully due to being in the wrong place -- albeit at the right time!

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- A meeting of the minds results in a plan that you can put into action immediately. Once the ball gets rolling, success is a foregone conclusion.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Environmental influences may keep you from doing things as planned. You can still do what you must, but in a different fashion.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- One thing follows another in rapid succession. You'll have to work harder than usual to keep up with developments as they occur.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You may require more help than usual, but not because you don't know what you're doing. Rather, it's brawn, not brains, that you need.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You'll enjoy much that happens, even though you are not directly involved. You'll take delight in a young person's success.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You may have trouble coordinating everything, but only because you've tried to do a little too much during daylight hours.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You will have to set aside certain immediate desires in order to tend to a long-term issue that refuses to be overlooked.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- Home affairs may require a little more thought than usual, as one who looks up to you behaves in a manner that is difficult to comprehend.
