Your Birthday for September 20, 2015

Your Birthday | September 20th, 2015

Born today, you are likely to develop your own inimitable style while still quite young, and maintain that style throughout your lifetime, with only a few very brief periods when you try something new and different for the sake of variety, exploration and learning. No matter how fascinating you may find another's way of life, however, you will surely return to your own -- that with which you are most comfortable, and which is likely to bring you the greatest possible rewards, both professionally and personally. It does you no lasting good to try to be someone else; to be yourself is the greatest possible reward you can give yourself. Every day, you will reap the benefits of honest and sincere living.

Your emotions are often quite near the surface, and as quickly as you fall in and out of love, you also find yourself becoming angry and then once more at peace. You allow yourself the freedom to feel what you will when you will, without trying to control your emotions in any artificial way.

Also born on this date are: Sophia Loren, actress; Anne Meara, actress; Gary Cole, actor; Upton Sinclair, author; Guy Lafleur, hockey player; Debbi Morgan, actress; Mike Matheny, baseball player.

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 September 19, 2015

by Stella Wilder

Your Birthday | September 19th, 2015

Born today, you are a straightforward, thoughtful, considerate individual. You have a great deal of natural talent that flows freely and is a central component of everything you do. You're not one to make a lot of noise, either while engaged in a favorite activity or in promotion of your personal agenda. You simply progress easily and steadfastly toward your goals, confident that you will get there eventually without making too much of a fuss. Indeed, you believe wholeheartedly in the adage "slow and steady wins the race," and you therefore maintain a high level of overall patience -- with yourself, others and the world at large.

You do your best to avoid negative emotions of all kinds, as you feel they are a waste of energy that can sap your mental, emotional and physical strength. You are not one to hold a grudge, and you will almost always forgive quickly when you have been offended in any way.

Also born on this date are: Jimmy Fallon, television host; Adam West, actor; David McCallum, actor; Jeremy Irons, actor; Trisha Yearwood, singer; Mario Batali, celebrity chef; Michael Symon, celebrity chef; Cass Elliot, singer; James Lipton, television host; Twiggy, model.

SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 20

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Give yourself a pat on the back, as you've set things up very well in order to further your own agenda in a speedy and exciting manner.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- What you have to offer isn't likely to have the impact you expected, though what it does have will be no less important in the end.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You may want to arrange things for another so that the possibility of disagreement is minimized. Taking charge works well for you right now.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Someone on your mind is trying to contact you, though you may not know it. He or she has an interesting proposition to make.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You may want to drop a few hints and let someone else guess what it is you're thinking of doing before the day is out.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You may not be quite as up to date with current events and key information as you might wish. Someone you know can help in this regard.

Your Birthday for September 18, 2015

by Stella Wilder

Your Birthday | September 18th, 2015

Born today, you are far more capable than you may appear at first, for you are not the kind of person to announce your doings or promote your own accomplishments to the world at large. Like a great many Virgo natives, you are rather quiet in your approach to life, and while you are hardworking, you are rarely one to talk about all that you do -- or all that you are capable of doing. Your personal successes are just that -- personal -- and it may be that many go undiscovered and unheralded throughout your entire lifetime. It is likely that future generations will sing your praises far more loudly, and often, than your contemporaries do.

You know how the world works, and you know how to live in such a way that it works in your favor more often than not. At the same time, you are keenly interested in parity and fairness. The truth is, you do not want anyone to have to go without, and you will work hard to make things better for others.

Also born on this date are: Ronaldo, soccer player; Jada Pinkett Smith, actress; Lance Armstrong, cyclist; James Gandolfini, actor; James Marsden, actor; Frankie Avalon, actor and singer; Greta Garbo, actress; Robert Blake, actor; Fred Willard, actor; Jason Sudeikis, actor and comedian.

SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 19

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You're interested in discovering the truth behind a certain odd occurrence. Things are not what they seem, and you know it!

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You may have to take the long way to get somewhere you routinely go, but the journey affords you one or two key discoveries.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You may have to make a few stops along the way in order to accommodate a loved one's needs -- and your own, on at least one occasion.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You may want someone to step in for you so that you can apply all your attention to an issue that has arisen quite unexpectedly.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You may be puzzled by a situation that you feel should be quite familiar to you. What is it that makes it seem strange and forbidding?

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You have a great deal in common with someone whose approach you do not wholly approve of -- as you are likely to discover very soon!

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You must be sure to stake your claim to something you feel you truly deserve, or you're going to have to go without it in the end.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You know a thing or two that others don't, but take care that you don't lord it over anyone, and instead share that knowledge freely.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You may be entering a period marked by difficult moments of emotional hardship -- but you can weather anything that comes your way, surely.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You know what you have to do, but you may be reluctant to get started, knowing that certain difficulties will result.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You may have to keep many more balls in the air than usual, and as you juggle these, you'll have your eyes on yet another coming task.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- Your imagination is likely to be quite vivid, sparked by all your senses. You are hyper-aware of your surroundings.
