Your Birthday for February 04, 2015

by Stella Wilder

Your Birthday | February 4th, 2015

Born today, you will never sit back and let the world turn without you. You are determined to take part, to stake your claim to that which you feel is yours by rights, to have an impact and to enjoy the success you know you deserve. You do understand, of course, that such success is not something that will come to you as a matter of course, and that the good things in life will not be handed to you on a silver platter! You will have to work for what you want -- and work for it you will -- but you're not about to stand for letting others put obstacles in your way for any reason. You know how to put your foot down, how to say "enough is enough" and how to influence those around you for the better.

When it comes to your personal life, you are something of a mystery to many; you don't feel that it is necessary for you to share certain parts of yourself with anyone but your closest friends and loved ones. Even those in your inner circle must come to terms with the fact that there are things about you that they will never know.

Also born on this date are: Rosa Parks, civil rights activist; Alice Cooper, singer; Rob Corddry, actor and comedian; Oscar De La Hoya, boxer; Natalie Imbruglia, singer; Charles Lindbergh, aviator; Lawrence Taylor, football player; Gabrielle Anwar, actress; Clint Black, singer; David Brenner, comedian; Dan Quayle, U.S. senator and vice president; Ida Lupino, actress; Arthur A. Ross, screenwriter.

THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 5

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You may be running out of time, so today is the day to tell that certain someone what you expect -- and what you're willing to give in return.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You may think that what someone has to offer is entirely inappropriate, but in fact, that person has his or her finger on the pulse of the group.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Give yourself all the time you need to come up with a workable solution to a tricky problem. It's better to be right than quick.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You can get much done, and it doesn't even have to relate to your primary objective. What counts is productivity.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- That which seems a certain way will likely prove to be entirely different, but you can work with it no matter how it comes out in the end.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- If there's something you really want, you'd better go after it, because you're not the only one. Yes, a race has now begun!

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You can enjoy some social time with those who are usually "under" you in some way, either professionally or personally.

Your Birthday for February 03, 2015

by Stella Wilder

Your Birthday | February 3rd, 2015

Born today, you have been endowed with one of the most winning personalities of anyone born under your sign. You will let it develop fully and learn to use it to your advantage in all things, both personal and professional. Indeed, it is quite likely that you will find the actual doing of things very easy because the path has been forged for you as a result of who you are, not what you are able to do. Following that path should, ultimately, be a matter of simply putting one foot in front of the other -- figuratively, if not literally. You have a great many talents, and you're not the kind to ignore any of them; you will, therefore, be quite accomplished at many different things in your lifetime.

You are just the kind of person that other people come to with questions and concerns; if someone is willing to listen to the kind of constructive criticism that can really make the difference between success and failure, you are the person to give it! You know good from bad and right from wrong, and you are able to spot talent and potential.

Also born on this date are: Rebel Wilson, actress; Norman Rockwell, illustrator and painter; Nathan Lane, actor; Morgan Fairchild, actress; Blythe Danner, actress; Fran Tarkenton, football player; Joey Bishop, actor and comedian; James Michener, author; Gertrude Stein, writer and poet; Bob Griese, football player; Michael Cimino, filmmaker.

WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 4

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You can introduce a friend or co-worker to what you've been doing lately. He or she will find that it is much bigger than you let on.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Give yourself a little more wiggle room, and you'll be able to accomplish more than you had anticipated. Time should be on your side.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Try doing something routine in a venue that is new or unfamiliar to you, and you'll find that your creativity can soar.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- What you share with another is of far more value than you had expected. He or she will let you know just how much it matters.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You don't want to move on until you have put the finishing touches on something that others thought was already finished. You know better!

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- It's a good day to reveal something about yourself that a friend or loved one hasn't quite figured out. Secrets may be exchanged as a result.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You may be tempted to do something that doesn't seem to be in your sweet spot. If you succeed, you'll surely take others by surprise.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You'll want to give yourself a little more of what you want. You can afford it, and you may soon find that you truly need it!

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You'll be playing the waiting game through much of the day, but when your turn comes, you'll be ready -- if you use this time wisely.

Your Birthday for February 02, 2015

by Stella Wilder

Your Birthday | February 2nd, 2015

Born today, you may well enjoy a very early start to a long and lucrative career, but this depends in large part upon your instinctive ability to combine the strengths of your particular character with moments of good fortune that the stars will unveil to you at various points in your early development. In many ways, this will be like catching lightning in a bottle -- difficult to do and, once done, impossible to repeat! But you can do it if you trust yourself and allow yourself to do what feels right, and not just because it tells you in some rulebook what to do and when. Instinct, for you, will be a major tool throughout your lifetime.

You have a great deal of personal appeal, and you can open many doors for yourself, professionally and personally, simply through the use of your natural charm, good looks, winning smile and that certain, indefinable "something" that you carry deep within.

Also born on this date are: Shakira, singer; Farrah Fawcett, actress; Tommy Smothers, comedian; Christie Brinkley, model; James Joyce, author; Graham Nash, singer-songwriter; Brent Spiner, actor; Stan Getz, musician; Elaine Stritch, actress; Ayn Rand, author; Liz Smith, gossip columnist; James Dickey, poet and novelist.

TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 3

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You seem to know what's going on more than others, but throughout the day you'll have some catching up to do, as well.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You've probably scheduled your day very carefully ahead of time, yet you may have to juggle certain duties as the unexpected arises.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Focus on activities that give you a greater sense of freedom and personal power. Now is no time to consent to something unknown.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- By doing two or three things at once during daylight hours, you'll have more time after dark to tend to some pressing personal issues.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- What you say with a look or a gesture will be a more powerful message to the recipient than anything you try to convey with words alone.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You should be able to balance your own personal needs with professional concerns today. Someone in charge reaches out to you.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- Make no promises that you are unsure you can keep. Ultimately, your word is more valuable than anything else you may have to offer.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- Putting your best foot forward involves more than mere manners. How you look, what you say and where you come from matter, too.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- The means of getting from here to there may be more complicated than expected. You may have to change some of your plans.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You may be surprised to learn that someone else is attempting something you have been trying to do. Does he or she have the advantage?

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You may have to follow more rules than usual -- or at least it will seem so. This is a way to ensure that everyone is on the same page.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You'll be in a position to welcome a newcomer into your circle, but take care that you cover all the bases when reviewing expectations.
