Your Birthday for October 22, 2015

Your Birthday | October 22nd, 2015

Born today, you are likely to attract a great deal of attention while you are very young. If luck and your ambition hold, this is likely to be true throughout your entire life. It is what happens during your formative years, however, that will prove most significant; the choices you make and the effects they have on you and others will determine the course of your entire life. Your opportunities to change from one path to another will be few and far between, but you're not the kind to change your mind about the important things, anyway. Like all Libra natives, you are quite adept at navigating all sorts of situations that the world might present to you.

Also like most Libra natives, you do your best to be true to yourself at all costs, though you may be more willing to compromise than some. Indeed, you are not one to stubbornly charge ahead in the face of great danger; for example, you know better than to insist on something when it may spell disaster for you and yours!

Also born on this date are: Annette Funicello, actress; Sarah Bernhardt, actress; Catherine Deneuve, actress; Jeff Goldblum, actor; Tony Roberts, actor; Timothy Leary, psychologist; Brian Boitano, Olympic figure skater; Karl Jansky, physicist; Christopher Lloyd, actor; Spike Jonez, filmmaker; Bob Odenkirk, actor.

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 October 21, 2015

by Stella Wilder

Your Birthday | October 21st, 2015

Born today, you do not always do what will please those around you; indeed, you can rub others the wrong way very often! Still, there is something about you that keeps you from alienating anyone, and you are likely to attract a great many friends and admirers into your orbit despite your abrasive, controversial or downright unpleasant behavior. The truth is, like so many Libra natives, you are merely being yourself. If others cannot accept that, it says volumes about them without reflecting poorly on you at all. At least, that's how you think -- and thinking that way is what gets you through even the most difficult situations.

Also born on this date are: Kim Kardashian West, television personality; Carrie Fisher, actress; Benjamin Netanyahu, Israeli prime minister; Judge Judy Sheindlin, television personality; Dizzy Gillespie, musician; Alfred Nobel, inventor; Samuel Taylor Coleridge, poet.

You aren't the kind to give lip service. What you say, you mean; and what you mean, you will almost always find an opportunity to say. It may not always be clear to others, but the fact is that you care a great deal for those around you. It must be said, however, that you care more for yourself on most occasions.

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.

THURSDAY, OCTOBER 22

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Your creative energies are on the rise. You may find it difficult to sleep when so many ideas are running through your head.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You may be searching for something that hasn't even gone missing, but you have a sense that you've been separated from it in some way.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Others will act upon information received in their own way; you must allow yourself to do the same, without restriction or limitation.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You may not know everything about a certain situation, but you know enough to let your instincts kick in and show you the way.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You will want to get in touch with someone to clear the air about a mistake made not long ago. Honest talk can make it all OK.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- Your sense of right and wrong may be challenged when a loved one tries to walk a fine line. Don't sacrifice your good name!

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- Difficulties are accompanied by lessons, and those you learn right now are likely to stay learned for good.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You can put a new idea in motion before anyone else realizes what you're up to. The element of surprise is on your side.

Your Birthday for October 20, 2015

by Stella Wilder

Your Birthday | October 20th, 2015

Born today, you have a great deal of charisma, and your natural charm is likely to open a great many doors for you -- both personally and professionally. You are equally at home in social, business and recreational environments, as you never seem to change from one setting to another. You are steady, constant and true to yourself no matter where you go, what you do or whom you meet. Indeed, the fact that you are real above all is more than a trademark; it is the basis of your entire strategy in life. To be false is not even possible for you! This is a welcome relief, often, to those who are tired of having to navigate a world of falsehood, deceit and disguise.

Also born on this date are: Snoop Dogg, rapper; Viggo Mortensen, actor; Danny Boyle, filmmaker; Tom Petty, singer-songwriter; Jerry Orbach, actor; Mickey Mantle, baseball player; Art Buchwald, humorist; Bela Lugosi, actor; Christopher Wren, architect.

You are likely to accomplish a great deal in your lifetime, but many of those accomplishments may go unseen or unrecognized by others. You never feel the need to blow your own horn; you let your deeds speak for you. If others listen, that's fine; if they don't, then that's surely something you can live with.

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.

WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 21

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You're trying to combine things that are, in fact, completely incompatible -- and that's why you're having more trouble than expected.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You must try to be a little more pragmatic. Others expect a performance that requires knowledge of something very basic, but essential.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You may feel as though you're in the same boat as you were yesterday and the day before. Obviously, that solution isn't working!

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You may be distressed by the realization that you haven't gotten over the hill you've been working so hard to scale.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- It may be more difficult than expected to navigate a certain personal issue. Someone else isn't making things easy for you!

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You don't have to get it all done in one fell swoop; you should have time to do the most difficult things in manageable parcels.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You'll want to have a better understanding not only of the big picture, but also of pertinent details, before you make a new commitment.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- A problem you thought was long gone is likely to resurface, but you'll realize with delight that you're not really affected!

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You have the sense that something is missing or that you are not where you are supposed to be. Don't miss out!

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Things can be much simpler than you suppose -- the only one making them complicated is, in fact, you. Stick to the basics.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- The warnings you are receiving may not be having the impact they should. Take care that you're not being cavalier about the situation.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You'll enjoy something new while appreciating something old and familiar. Yes, you can actually have the best of both worlds!
