Your Birthday for November 07, 2015

Your Birthday | November 7th, 2015

Born today, you like to have your ducks in a row, and you will do this by approaching even the most troubling or difficult issues in a balanced and thoughtful fashion. Though you can be as passionate about a thing as anyone else, you don't always give those passions free rein, for you know that they can do you harm if left uncontrolled. You work very hard to be fair, to promote parity and equality, to ease tensions and settle conflicts in positive, productive ways. You strive to be socially conscious, cooperative with others and tolerant of ideas that are different from your own.

You are not perfect, of course, and there are times when you react rather violently to that which rubs you the wrong way. You are a Scorpio native, after all, and you have been known to strike at anything that opposes you, especially when you feel backed into a corner.

Also born on this date are: Joni Mitchell, singer; Joan Sutherland, operatic soprano; Al Hirt, musician; Billy Graham, televangelist; Leon Trotsky, Russian revolutionary; Marie Curie, scientist.

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.

SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 8

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- The obstacles you face are nothing new, and your strategy and technique will serve you well as you face them head-on.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Success depends on how thorough your preparation has been, and how carefully you have set things up to work in your favor.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You'll start the day very close to your destination, affording you the opportunity to slow down and enjoy this final push.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You have many responsibilities, but one in particular is foremost in your mind. A youngster is likely involved.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You may be tempted to try to improve a situation that is, in fact, as good as it's going to get -- and highly favorable to you and yours.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You're in a rut, but you can get out of it -- provided you keep thinking about what you can do rather than what you can't. Stay positive!

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- Don't wait until the last minute to step in and fix things for someone in need, for that will surely be too late.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You must trust in camaraderie and the dynamic you've been building among your teammates. Everything is in place for now.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You've been asked to show your work, but you may not have done things by the rules. Do you cover it up or admit the truth?

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- Your timing must be perfect if you're going to complete a certain task on schedule. A little bit of luck couldn't hurt, either!

Your Birthday for November 06, 2015

Your Birthday | November 6th, 2015

Born today, you are one of the most generous individuals born under your sign, but you know well enough not to do so much for others that you sacrifice what you need at any given juncture. You are able to balance your own needs with the needs of those around you quite well. In fact, you often find the greatest success by combining your own priorities with the priorities of those around you -- in effect, working for both at the same time. This is a telling habit, for it reveals a willingness to tie your cart to another's and work together for what amounts to a common good. You have a strong personality and the confidence necessary to prevail in difficult situations.

You are a charming, attractive individual, and you're likely to find yourself falling in love often -- though you are smart enough to know that you must not make permanent decisions based solely upon where your heart is leading you at any given time. Permanence in love is, in part at least, a product of common sense!

Also born on this date are: Emma Stone, actress; Pat Tillman, football player and soldier; Thandie Newton, actress; Rebecca Romijn, model and actress; Ethan Hawke, actor and filmmaker; Maria Shriver, journalist; Sally Field, actress; Glenn Frey, singer-songwriter and musician; Mike Nichols, filmmaker; John Philip Sousa, composer and bandleader.

SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 7

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- It's time for you to make a dramatic comeback. You know exactly what needs to be done, and how. Only hesitation can work against you.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You understand how the chain of command works, but you're nevertheless tempted to go over someone's head to secure a position for yourself.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You are confident that what you have in mind can work out for everyone involved. You may have a tough time persuading one particular individual.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You may be asked to perform a task that seems to serve little purpose on one hand, while on the other, it appears to be unavoidable.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You can gain a great deal simply by sponsoring someone else. You have much to offer, especially when working behind the scenes.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You may come up with a whole new way of doing something that has been done the same old way for far too long. Excitement builds.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- Keep your eyes open, and you'll spot exactly what you want. Whether near or far, a direct approach can get it for you.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You're looking for a way out, but you're not likely to find it by any conventional means -- or in any expected place. Think outside the box.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You're tempted to challenge the decision of someone who is temporarily in charge -- but perhaps you'll think twice just in time.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You're likely to make a very quick start, and a slowdown later on can be blamed on factors over which you have no control.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You may have to go behind someone's back in order to surprise him or her with something that he or she has wanted for quite some time.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You mustn't stand in another's way. In fact, you should try to do the opposite -- run interference and clear the way.

Your Birthday for November 05, 2015

by Stella Wilder

Your Birthday | November 5th, 2015

Born today, you are a highly social individual, and you enjoy spending time with friends and family so much that you will even set aside your work now and then to take advantage of social opportunities. You don't ever have to be doing things of great import to enjoy your time with others; indeed, just hanging out can be one of your greatest pleasures. You enjoy the simple things that life has to offer, and you are able to talk about virtually everything with virtually anyone, without letting things become heated or confrontational in any way -- even when you disagree with them. You are determined to remain close to family members; you derive a great deal of inner strength from what family can offer you in life.

Also born on this date are: Tatum O'Neal, actress; Tilda Swinton, actress; Bryan Adams, singer; Sam Shepard, writer and actor; Sam Rockwell, actor; Art Garfunkel, singer-songwriter; Elke Sommer, actress; Ike Turner, musician; Vivien Leigh, actress; Joel McCrea, actor.

There are times when you might not keep important goals squarely in mind, and you may even find yourself spinning your wheels in a rather aimless fashion. Still, you are able to accomplish a great deal when you do focus on your endeavors, and you certainly know a good opportunity when you see one.

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 6

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Not every idea is one that should be explored fully. Picking the right ones will be the most important thing you accomplish.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You shouldn't have to read the instructions to be able to do the thing you most want to do. You've been practicing for quite some time!

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Someone close to you is fearful that you may be getting in over your head. You can demonstrate to him and others that all is as it should be.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Your domestic situation provides you with a great deal of confidence, even though not everything is exactly in its place.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Self-discovery is something you cannot stop even if you want to. You're going to learn things about yourself all day long.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You're more concerned with the quality of your work than the quantity -- or getting things done ahead of schedule.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- Someone who shares your overall outlook has a few important things to tell you -- if you're willing to listen. Don't be defensive.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You can put into practice almost immediately the things you learn from a trusted guide or mentor. You're onto something big!

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You may be able to see things that others cannot, but that doesn't mean you have magic powers! You're merely more perceptive now.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Someone is interacting with you in a way that doesn't inspire your confidence. Perhaps you can teach him or her a better way.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You can uncover a few facts that will enable you to solve a personal mystery, but only if you can face something unpleasant.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You can manage to do several things at once, but you must choose carefully the things you are trying to get done.
