Your Birthday for September 22, 2015

by Stella Wilder

Your Birthday | September 22nd, 2015

Born today, you are never interested in conflict; indeed, you will do what you can to avoid it at all costs. You will even, if necessary, sacrifice much of yourself and what you want in order to secure peace and harmony with others. There may be times when this is an unwise practice, for there are always some who are willing and able to take advantage of this aspect of your personality: They will take you for all you're worth, and smile all the way to the bank! For this reason, you must learn to accept the counsel of a few close friends or loved ones who have your back and who will not let you give up too much simply to keep peace. Those closest to you may even go to battle for you, to spare you from doing that which you simply cannot abide. You must let them!

You have a creative streak that is not to be ignored; you are constantly yearning to do or make something lasting that will be remembered -- and this is surely possible if you remember to listen to your heart, do what you love and keep trying even when the going gets tough.

Also born on this date are: Joan Jett, singer; Debby Boone, singer; Scott Baio, actor; Andrea Bocelli, singer; Bonnie Hunt, actress; Shari Belafonte, actress; Tommy Lasorda, baseball manager.

Your Birthday for September 21, 2015

by Stella Wilder

Your Birthday | September 21st, 2015

Born today, you are one of those compelling, mysterious individuals to whom there is much more than meets the eye. Beneath your carefully crafted and cultivated demeanor, there are many currents flowing swiftly -- some near the surface, others running deep inside -- and it is this fact alone that sets you apart from so many others, even those born under your sign. That part of you that you present to others -- your "exterior" -- is only what you wish to present. You leave little to chance when it comes to the image you project, so virtually everything is intentional. The part of you that is hidden away under the skin -- well, that is another story entirely! It is, in fact, almost impossible for you to control what goes on inside. You are, for the most part, at the mercy of your own inner nature.

Despite this, you are able to guide yourself through life according to a plan -- though you are never likely to have only one plan! Indeed, you are drawn to many things and have many interests, and you will insist on pursuing as many opportunities as possible. You won't let yourself be limited to only one area of endeavor.

Also born on this date are: Bill Murray, actor; Stephen King, author; Faith Hill, singer; Larry Hagman, actor; Luke Wilson, actor; Ricki Lake, actress; Chuck Jones, animator and director; H.G. Wells, author; Jerry Bruckheimer, producer; Nancy Travis, actress; Ethan Coen, filmmaker.

TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 22

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- A trip down memory lane takes you farther from your intended destination than desired -- which will surely teach you a lesson.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You can save money, but is that as important to you as doing what you have long hoped to do? This opportunity may be the only one!

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You want to go along with another, but something is holding you back. Is this a real fear, or something you've made up?

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You aren't likely to suffer fools gladly, yet you're going to have to get along with those you encounter, come what may.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Make no assumptions! When you have all the information you need, you may act -- but don't add things up until you have all the data.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- It's more difficult for you to make arrangements in the usual way. Others aren't going to be as in sync with you as expected.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You are expecting things to turn out a certain way, but you can't simply sit back and let them happen. You must exert some pressure.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You like what you see, but you don't know if you can get close enough to explore it further. Time is on your side -- for the day, at least.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- Events are not likely to pan out the way you had hoped, but when all is said and done, you'll be better off than you were before.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You can make things work out for someone else, even while you grapple with your own demons. Personal issues are prevalent.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You know what someone needs, and you know how to provide it. What isn't known is when the time will be exactly right.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- Someone will offer you a considerable challenge, but you're ready to up the ante. Mental efforts will be greater than usual.

Your Birthday for September 20, 2015

by Stella Wilder

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.

MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 21

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You're on the verge of something big, but you mustn't sacrifice all that you've worked for in order to see it come to fruition.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- This is no time for jokes; you must be ready and willing to take very seriously a subject broached by a member of your posse.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You know that what you're suggesting may be considered dangerous by someone else, but he or she may be unusually susceptible to your charms.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You have a suggestion or two for someone who seems to be stuck in the mud. He or she is ready and willing to listen -- to you only.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You must choose between the quickest route and the one that affords you the best possible view. Aesthetics surely matter!

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Things are likely to happen in quick succession, and you're going to have to keep your head as you strive to persevere.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- Someone has his or her eye on you, and you know it, but you must follow the rules of the game and not let on that anything unusual is happening.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You mustn't let another's resistance to what you have to offer get you down. Not everyone is as tuned in as you are, after all!

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- What another does cannot influence you against your will, though you may be eager to see how it comes out for him or her.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You may be living dangerously without being aware of the very real risks to which you are exposing yourself.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You may feel as though you're at the center of the universe, and it's all because someone special is giving you some attention.
