Your Birthday for October 25, 2015

by Stella Wilder

Your Birthday | October 25th, 2015

Born today, you cherish personal ties of all kinds, and you will sacrifice your own professional success and standing if it means rescuing a suffering friendship or deepening your relationship with a family member. To you, other people are the reason for living! You get on so well with others that you sometimes find it difficult to be alone -- and when you are alone, you are often busy communicating with friends, family, co-workers and all manner of other individuals in any manner available. You understand that you can never accomplish anything in life without the involvement of others, that life is an ongoing collaboration and that what you do and say to others has far-reaching ramifications that cannot be denied. You are clearly a "people person"!

You are able to achieve much in the professional arena, though it may take you some time to realize just what your niche might be and what your responsibilities to yourself and others will entail. Once you have all that sorted out, however, success can come to you quickly.

Also born on this date are: Tracy Nelson, actress; Anne Tyler, writer; Helen Reddy, singer; Minnie Pearl, comedian; Marion Ross, actress; Pablo Picasso, artist; Richard E. Byrd, explorer; Leo G. Carroll, actor; Georges Bizet, composer; Katy Perry, singer-songwriter.

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.

MONDAY, OCTOBER 26

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You mustn't try too hard to control things; let them progress organically, as they will, and react accordingly.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Always remember that you are not in charge of everything! This will serve you well as you interact with someone of higher status.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You have much to offer, and others will come away from any interaction with you with exactly what they want -- and then some.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Are you ready to do what you have been promising for so long? Today is the day, whether or not you feel absolutely ready.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- It is a good idea to share ideas openly with others -- even those that are, in your view, still only experimental.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- What you see in the mirror tells you much about the way you see the world around you. Is an attitude adjustment required?

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- What you conjure in your imagination can be just as valuable to you in the long run as anything rooted in hard-and-fast reality.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You're promoting an idea that is not right for everyone. Be sure your approach takes the desires of others into account at all times.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- What you are doing may not win approval from everyone, but one or two people will stand behind you, no matter what.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You may be dreaming of another time and place throughout much of the day. Indeed, much of it is absolutely worth missing!

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You'll be able to get off the starting blocks very quickly as the day begins, but later you can expect a sudden, temporary slowdown.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You may feel as though you are losing support, but in reality, your position is just as strong as it has ever been.

Your Birthday for October 24, 2015

by Stella Wilder

Your Birthday | October 24th, 2015

Born today, you have what it takes to be one of the most accomplished individuals born under your sign. The stars have endowed you with both the talent and the drive to make the most of the opportunities that are presented to you outright, as well as those that you dig up in the course of your daily life. You're not the kind to let things develop by accident; you want to have a controlling influence over your own life. In this regard, you will do all you can to know as much as possible -- about yourself, about those around you and about the world as a whole. You are, in effect, a student of life; as such, you will always be active, astute, able and very much alive.

You have a way of balancing all different aspects of your life in such a way that they do not conflict with each other very often. This is sure to win you admiration from those who are, for the most part, unable to do the same. Indeed, you are an example of both creativity and responsibility.

Also born on this date are: Kevin Kline, actor; F. Murray Abraham, actor; Moss Hart, playwright; PewDiePie, YouTube personality; Drake, hip-hop artist and actor.

SUNDAY, OCTOBER 25

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Your attitude may be standing in your way. Follow another's lead as he or she approaches things more lightheartedly.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You have much more fight in you than a rival may suppose. He or she is likely to be surprised by what you have to offer.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Putting yourself in another's shoes may seem like nothing more than a hypothetical proposition, but you can learn a great deal.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Big things can begin in very small ways. You'll want to pay particular attention to something that happens almost invisibly.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- One or two surprise events change the way you think about the day. What you do as a result is likely to propel you forward more quickly.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You mustn't expect to be perfect right away; get used to the idea that most things will take two or three tries, at least.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- Some things don't come as naturally as others, and you may end up having to do something that is utterly foreign to you.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You may come up with a new way of communicating an old idea to your teammates. Someone is interested in pursuing this further.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You can give someone some invaluable assistance -- or vice versa. In fact, it's likely to go both ways before the day is out.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Try not to take things too seriously. A bit of whimsy can do wonders for you as you tackle a certain personal issue.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- The same old things aren't likely to give you the pleasure they once did. It's time to explore some new options recently presented.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You may have lost track of something you need in order to progress at the usual pace. Find it -- or get used to things moving more slowly.

Your Birthday for October 23, 2015

by Stella Wilder

Your Birthday | October 23rd, 2015

Born today, you are something of a character, the kind of individual who attracts attention not for what you accomplish so much as for who you are and how you behave. Indeed, the question of accomplishment may actually haunt you, for although you may feel that you do contribute a great deal, there are some who would assert that you are merely drifting blithely through life, doing what you please without a care in the world. There is, in fact, something to this perception, for you're not one to do what is expected of you or pursue goals that have been set for you by others. Rather, you do what you want, and in that way, you are far more likely than most to enjoy lasting contentment and satisfaction.

You may go through periods marked by a lack of drive and an unwillingness to step out of your comfort zone. When this happens, you're likely to disappear for a while, preferring your own company and insisting on maintaining a very private lifestyle. When the time comes, however, you're sure to burst forth, ready to take the world by storm once again.

Also born on this date are: Weird Al Yankovic, singer and satirist; Pele, soccer player; Michael Crichton, writer; Johnny Carson, television host; Ang Lee, filmmaker; Dwight Yoakam, singer and actor; Ryan Reynolds, actor.

SATURDAY, OCTOBER 24

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You won't have to travel far from home to experience something entirely foreign to you. You'll want to explore further.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You'll be able to perform well under a wide range of circumstances; anyone who challenges you will have his or her hands full.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Use caution when exploring unknown territory. Don't give anyone reason to doubt your ability to keep yourself and others safe.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You'll require certain assurances from others before you stick your own neck out in support of something they're trying to do.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Your ability to see to the heart of an issue with relative ease will come in handy. Friends will very soon follow in your footsteps.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Someone who does things very differently from the way you do them may challenge you to shake things up in some way. Give it a try!

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- Something that has taken little time in the past may require more of a commitment than you're used to making. Examine your schedule closely.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- Something new proves attractive to you, but you're not about to jump into a new line of endeavor just yet. Talk it through!

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You aren't likely to give anyone else cause for worry, yet at some point, you'll choose to do something rather unusual.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You may not be entirely pleased with the way something is going, but there is little you can do to alter its course.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- A memory causes you both pain and pleasure -- and ultimately has you making up your mind about something you've long struggled with.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- Share what happens to you with another -- it's sure to mean much more to both of you when all is said and done.
