Your Birthday | January 6th, 2015

Born today, you have been endowed with tremendous talent, and you will be aware of it from your earliest years, when you experiment with how to use it to its fullest potential. It may seem to you as if you have no choice in life as far as the road you are destined to take -- but that is, in fact, the point! Your sense of destiny is keen, and you are more than likely to accept your assignment in life without question, knowing that to do so will mean the full development of your skills and talents, and the application of them to endeavors that are more meaningful than most everyday jobs. The day-in-day-out grind is not for you; you want things to be special all the time!

You know how to take something that has been done before and do it in a way that makes it seem new and exciting -- to you and to others. Indeed, it is your own personal stamp that will make what you do really count. Though you may imitate others while you are learning, you'll no doubt come into your own very quickly.

Also born on this date are: Rowan Atkinson, actor and comedian; Eddie Redmayne, actor; Joan of Arc, soldier and saint; Nigella Lawson, author and chef; Danny Thomas, actor; Loretta Young, actress; Bonnie Franklin, actress; Carl Sandburg, poet and author; Howie Long, football player; Vic Tayback, actor; Tom Mix, actor; John Singleton, filmmaker; Anthony Minghella, filmmaker.

Your Birthday for January 05, 2015

by Stella Wilder

Your Birthday | January 5th, 2015

Born today, you are a rather poetic individual -- but you may not know it, or at least you may not be fully aware of the passions that fuel that side of your nature, or the potential that it has to bring you almost everything you really want in life. What you do know is that you can be unusually sensitive at times. You feel things quite deeply; you register even the seemingly insignificant things in the most significant of ways, and you are able to find tremendous meaning in that which is overlooked by others. You laugh easily, and you can laugh at almost anything. You cry at the drop of a hat, and there is no telling what you may cry about next. You seem to feel the pulse of the world around you, and you respond accordingly.

You may be the kind to overreact to your own nature by trying to be what you are not. As a result, you may sometimes seem to be hard, impenetrable, implacable and overly businesslike. But this is only a mask; you simply don't always want people to see beneath the surface and know what you are really thinking or feeling.

Also born on this date are: Diane Keaton, actress; Suzy Amis, actress; Pamela Sue Martin, actress; Jeane Dixon, psychic; Marilyn Manson, singer-songwriter; Juan Carlos I, king of Spain; Walter Mondale, politician; Zebulon Pike, explorer.

TUESDAY, JANUARY 6

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- If it appears to you that things are out of whack, you'll want to investigate further. Certain rhythms may prove misleading.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You're eager to hear if your work has won the praise of those who are usually quite critical of you. Recent changes have proven effective.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- What you are doing to avoid getting more deeply involved in a personal tangle is paying off, but do you really want to keep your distance?

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You may not be expecting things to develop quickly, yet the pace is likely to increase hour by hour until you cannot help but notice.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You may have to work hard to meet a certain deadline, but only because recent commitments elsewhere have altered your timeline.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You're not happy with the way things are going, but you know that the way they were in the past didn't suit you either. Consider options.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You may feel as though you have been trapped by circumstances, but there was something you could have done, and you know it.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You'll want to reinforce what you are doing so that everyone is clear about your motives and methods.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- Simpler is better. You don't want to make things so complicated that it becomes impossible to communicate effectively.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You may have some trouble sorting through your own emotions. Perhaps you're overreacting to something that was inevitable.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- A casual approach proves best, especially late in the day when reports are coming in about the results and impact of your efforts.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You can prove that you are after the same thing as a rival. As a result, you may be able to bury the hatchet before the day is out.

Your Birthday for January 04, 2015

by Stella Wilder

Your Birthday | January 4th, 2015

Born today, you can be rather stubborn now and then. This serves you well when you are faced with difficult situations, for you're not one to vacillate or change your mind or question yourself when certainty is the key to progress. Certainty is your way of life! You do not respond well to those who would try to change your mind without pointing out some firm evidence that refutes your way of thinking. You won't budge unless you are faced with incontrovertible proof that your way is the wrong way! You can be rather old-fashioned in your behavior, in the way you dress and in the way you communicate -- but there is something rather charming in all of this.

When someone else earns your trust and respect, he or she will have it always, through thick and thin. Your loyalty is never for sale, and you will support your allies no matter what hardship comes to you as a result. You are confident that you can come through any difficulties.

Also born on this date are: Louis Braille, inventor; Sterling Holloway, actor; Don Shula, football coach; Michael Stipe, singer; Dyan Cannon, actress; Patty Loveless, singer; Julia Ormond, actress; Dave Foley, actor and comedian; Jesse White, actor; Augustus John, artist.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Though you may be concerned, there's no reason to panic just yet. You can have a major impact simply by staying in control.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Prospects are good, and your ability to make the most out of a marginal situation will improve matters even further.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You may feel as though you are enjoying much more luck than you are entitled to, but who are you to argue with good karma?

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You'll come through for a friend or co-worker. The timely delivery of goods will make possible a major step forward.
