Your Birthday for March 19, 2015

by Stella Wilder

Your Birthday | March 19th, 2015

Born today, you seem to be one thing to some people, another to others, and yet another to a select group of friends and loved ones. This is not entirely accidental, either; it is a tendency you will have noticed about yourself when very young, something you have developed over the years and learned to exploit to your advantage. The only danger, of course, is that you may at times forget which "you" is intentionally on display, and you may inadvertently share otherwise disguised aspects of your personality to the wrong group of people! Still, when the chips are down, you can be charming and mix well with all kinds -- and you prove it time and time again. There are some who are certain you are a Gemini native!

You can even take those aspects of your personality that you like the least and use them to your advantage on occasion, but you do your best to cover them up again when their usefulness has passed. Of these, your temper and your ability to wage war on a personal level are surprisingly useful -- and dangerous.

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.

Your Birthday for March 18, 2015

by Stella Wilder

Your Birthday | March 18th, 2015

Born today, you seem to have a great deal of inside information about things that are not only important to you, but to almost everyone you know -- and everyone else, too. You have a knack for knowing what is currently happening, what is going to happen -- as well as when, where and even why. Indeed, there are times when you seem to demonstrate a kind of sixth sense about the future, but really it's nothing but instinct at play. Your instincts are so keen that when you trust them -- and you must always trust them! -- you are sure to do and say the right things, be in the right places and take advantage of the right opportunities. Trust your instincts, and the world will be your oyster.

You know how to parlay the simplest advantages into the greatest possible gains. Indeed, you are likely to succeed where others fail simply because you are willing to do what you must do more quickly, without stopping to have second thoughts. When you decide to do a thing, you do it wholeheartedly; again, it's those keen instincts making things work for you.

Also born on this date are: Adam Levine, singer; Queen Latifah, singer and actress; Vanessa Williams, actress and singer; Irene Cara, actress and singer; Brad Dourif, actor; Grover Cleveland, U.S. president; Wilson Pickett, singer and musician; Mike Rowe, television personality; Peter Graves, actor; John Updike, author; Edward Everett Horton, actor; Charley Pride, singer-songwriter.

THURSDAY, MARCH 19

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Things may seem a little one-sided for a while, but you can restore parity by speaking honestly with all those involved.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Your influence will work wonders on those who are not usually willing to talk about their problems. You'll have many opening up very well.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You may have to weed through a lot that is unnecessary and even cumbersome before you get to anything that is useful to you.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Patience is always a virtue, but today it is almost certain to be a necessity. You must resist the temptation to force an issue.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- What you are going through must not be allowed to distract others, though this may be difficult when certain duties overlap.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You know what's best for you and yours, and you should be able to prove it. From now on, a certain level of autonomy is assured.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- Give yourself a break and don't try to do everything at once. Indeed, the more you can rest, the more efficient you will be.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You can expect a slowdown, but it will not limit your imagination, which can see you through a difficult situation.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You may have trouble scheduling a simple rendezvous. Perhaps you should consider doing things over a broader period of time.

Your Birthday for March 17, 2015

by Stella Wilder

Your Birthday | March 17th, 2015

Born today, you are, like a great many Pisces natives, at risk of being considered a know-it-all for the very simple reason that you do, indeed, know a great deal. More than that, you are often too willing to share that knowledge in an indiscriminate manner. The key, of course, is to learn to size people up quickly to determine if they are of the type to react favorably to your display of knowledge and acumen, or if they will be in any way threatened by it. It is the perceived threat, whether real or not, that rubs people the wrong way more often than not. Still, you would not have it any other way; you prefer to be in the know, and you spend a great deal of your time trying to expand your knowledge.

What is important, of course, is that you never let either your intellectual knowledge or your practical know-how lie dormant. It's essential that you use the power of your brain to develop your natural talents to their fullest. That way, you can achieve much and fulfill your potential, both personally and professionally.

Also born on this date are: Rob Lowe, actor; Kurt Russell, actor; Gary Sinise, actor; Nat King Cole, singer; Patrick Duffy, actor; Vicki Lewis, actress; Billy Corgan, singer-songwriter; Mia Hamm, soccer player; Bobby Jones, golfer; John Sebastian, singer-songwriter.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You may have to lay down the law when it comes to sharing. Others must display a little more respect for what is yours!

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Someone may be trying to change your mind, but it's not going to be changed easily! A careful negotiation may be on the horizon.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You may have to go through unusual channels in order to get access to something that you thought was yours by rights.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- A certain familiar danger lies directly ahead, and it is that familiarity that can ensure your ultimate success.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You're more than willing to jump in and help those in need, but you must remember to make time for your own personal needs as well.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You may attract something of a crowd with your unexpected antics, but take care that this doesn't become a habit.
