Your Birthday for December 02, 2014

by Stella Wilder

Your Birthday | December 2nd, 2014

Born today, you often do things that you understand might be forbidden, but you most often operate according to the belief that forgiveness is easier to get than permission! This means that you have no qualms about doing what you perhaps should not do, as long as you are confident that those in charge will look at the offense in a lighthearted way and not hold it against you. Take care, however! Others can tolerate only so much of this. Eventually, if you keep it up, you will simply be seen as one who habitually breaks the rules, and some kind of punishment is sure to follow. Now and then, you must simply do as you are told.

You are drawn to some unusual activities, and it will be up to you to keep the danger level to a minimum -- if not for yourself, then for those whose lives are intertwined with yours. You don't want to lead others accidentally into situations that could be hazardous to them!

Also born on this date are: Britney Spears, singer; Nelly Furtado, singer; Monica Seles, tennis player; Lucy Liu, actress; Cathy Lee Crosby, television personality; Gianni Versace, fashion designer; Maria Callas, operatic soprano; John Ringling, circus mogul; Georges Seurat, painter.

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.

WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 3

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You know just how to lift another's spirits, but make sure that you are doing something to support your own happiness as well.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You're likely to be interrupted not once, not twice, but three or more times throughout the day. You'll need a placeholder.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You may be barking up the wrong tree, but when a friend points this out, you'll know instantly where to turn your attention.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You may be eager to put down what you are working on and enjoy a little rest and relaxation, but someone is standing in your way.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Safety is relative, as always. Just because you feel secure doesn't mean that those with you share the same feelings. Double check!

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You may have to introduce yourself all over again to one who can do you a good turn when the time comes. Don't take anything personally.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- "Almost" doesn't count, and it mustn't make you think that things are taking a turn for the worse. Maintain positive thinking.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- What happens may require an immediate reaction that you are not quite prepared to give. Still, you can avoid a serious setback.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You may feel at a loss when someone you have long trusted decides that it's time to go it alone. Be a help, not a hindrance!

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You are certain that an arrival scheduled for today or tomorrow will fix everything, but a friend knows how unlikely that is.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You may have to retrace your steps to understand fully where you have been and how far you have come. Mistakes are revealed as well.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You may disagree with a loved one about how to mend someone else's broken heart, but you both surely have good intentions.

Your Birthday for December 01, 2014

by Stella Wilder

Your Birthday | December 1st, 2014

Born today, you are not the kind to disrupt the lives of others as you go about your own business. You prefer to get things done in a straightforward, quiet manner that makes as few ripples as possible -- until, at last, what you have accomplished is widely recognized, and you receive the praise and acclaim that you were after to begin with. Of course, this makes it sound as if you are only after acclaim, which is hardly the case! You are driven to keep moving forward, progressing and accomplishing ever more while exploring the limits of your own ability. This is what really keeps you going, what motivates you and what satisfies you most in the end.

You are no showoff; indeed, you are not likely to crave the attention of others. You are very private, and you insist on keeping your private life very much under wraps. You must get used to the fact that this will make you a target of those who cannot stand not knowing what's going on!

Also born on this date are: Mary Martin, actress; Bette Midler, singer and actress; Richard Pryor, comedian and actor; Lou Rawls, singer; Woody Allen, filmmaker and comedian; Lee Trevino, golfer.

TUESDAY, DECEMBER 2

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You can do much to help many, even though you feel somewhat restricted by circumstances. A creative approach works wonders.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- It may be up to you to lift the spirits of those who have fallen into an emotional rut. You know the reason; you've been there before.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Keeping names, dates, facts and figures squarely in mind will serve you well. Don't assume others know what you know.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You will feel good knowing that you are doing all you can to help someone who doesn't quite know how to ask for help.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You're engaged in a kind of struggle that demands a great deal in the way of understanding, as well as anticipation and flexibility.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- The more straightforward you can be, the better. When asking for assistance, there is no reason for you to beat around the bush.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- Your positive outlook and natural optimism will help others see beyond any current difficulties to a time when things are much better.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- Your reassurance will help another see what he or she has not been able to see for quite some time. You'll receive unusual thanks.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You have work to do, but you cannot do it without first soliciting help -- and help can only be given by a few certain individuals.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You can prove that you are a bit braver than others might have supposed. What lies ahead will demand a specific kind of courage.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- The kinds of ideas that you spawn can make a difference to many, but if they are not allowed to develop, you may be seriously harmed.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- Even those who are young will understand more than you seem to -- until you encounter someone who can open your eyes.

Your Birthday for November 30, 2014

by Stella Wilder

Your Birthday | November 30th, 2014

Born today, you are never far from center -- and the meaning of that will be as clear to you as the summer sun. It will also bring you as much health and strength as the sun does. Just as the earth revolves around the sun, you revolve faithfully around your own center, which is made of energy that is spiritual, physical, emotional and intellectual -- and which is virtually unshakable. You aren't the kind, therefore, to waver when you take a stand; you can promote an idea faithfully and aggressively once you have adopted it as your own. You can love forever, and you can play to win while still honoring those who have won instead of you. You are a fair, faithful, honest, balanced, admirable individual in many ways.

You can also be rather ill-tempered at times, but it is almost always for a very clear reason. You aren't the type to fly off the handle without reason, nor are you one to wallow in a bad mood that has no clear explanation or cause. And because your temper is sparked only by clear and obvious stimuli, your recovery is most often very speedy indeed.

Also born on this date are: Shirley Chisholm, politician; Virginia Mayo, actress; June Pointer, singer; Sir Winston Churchill, English prime minister; Mark Twain, author; Dick Clark, television host; Robert Guillaume, actor; Ridley Scott, filmmaker.

MONDAY, DECEMBER 1

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Someone may be waiting for you to deliver the goods. The only thing holding you up is the fact that you want to get everything just right.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Your willingness to do that extra little bit will make a world of difference to those who are choosing who stays and who goes.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You can rely on that "certain something" to take you only so far. You're going to have to engage people on another level.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Something mysterious has you digging into your own past to uncover information that can prove you are who you say you are.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- It's time for you to put your money where your mouth is. For too long, you've been making assertions, and now it's time to back them up with action.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You're coming into your own, and the result will no doubt be more money, more fun and more opportunities coming your way.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- What in the past has been a source of annoyance or irritation may actually become something that you look forward to with eagerness!

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You can't allow someone to cramp your style. Lay down the law, draw the line and insist that you be granted the freedom to maneuver.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- The promise of something exciting just around the corner is what keeps you going down the same path. Your wish can come true.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Others may not understand your method of getting things done. It seems a little too lax and permissive, perhaps.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- Your search for information is likely to lead you down some unknown paths, and one or two may actually require some caution.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You may be feeling somewhat stiff and out of sorts. Now is no time to take on something new or unusually challenging.
