Your Birthday | May 12th, 2016

Born today, you are likely to be buffeted by the winds of change and the mere chanciness of life, again and again, until you learn the art of anticipating and acting in concert with the world around you. As a youth, you may simply be too reactive and combative for your own good. As you age, you will discover that there are times when bending just a little will allow you to weather what comes in a much healthier way than if you simply stand your ground and take the brunt of it. You will also, as you put years under your belt and wisdom in your head, learn to read the signs that life puts before you. This will enable you to see what's ahead before it gets to you, allowing you to react in the best possible way.

You know how to work hard and play hard, and sometimes you enjoy yourself most when you are doing both at the same time. Indeed, you often believe that the harder you work, the more fun you will have, and you prove it daily. You know how to commit fully to anything you choose to do.

Also born on this date are: Emilio Estevez, actor; Florence Nightingale, nurse; Jason Biggs, actor; Katharine Hepburn, actress; Yogi Berra, baseball player; George Carlin, comedian; Ving Rhames, actor; Malin Akerman, actress; Burt Bacharach, songwriter; Steve Winwood, singer and musician; Stephen Baldwin, actor; Gabriel Byrne, actor; Bruce Boxleitner, actor; Tom Snyder, television host; Richard Riehle, actor; Edward Lear, poet.

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.

FRIDAY, MAY 13

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- The busier you are, the more you must trust yourself to do things as they should be done. You won't always be able to think things through.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You can do a great deal of learning, but you must forge ahead with an open mind and avoid seeing things as you once did. It's all new!

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You can join forces with someone who has a more complete grasp of all the key issues. You begin building a formidable team.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You're in the mood to do something for others. There are many options open to you, but one in particular seems to beckon.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Your need to be of use to those around you is something you will not be able to resist. Indeed, it is likely to become all-consuming.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You can offer more than you originally planned. You'll seem to know just what is needed and just how to provide it.

Your Birthday | May 11th, 2016

Born today, you are sure to make quite a splash when you first arrive on the scene, for you know how to make the most out of even an unexpected opportunity. You have tremendous natural talents that are sure to be noticed by those who can do things for you, and doors are sure to be opened to you as a result. What you must never forget, however, is that preparation is the key to your ultimate success; you must never rely solely upon your ability, timing or luck. Accept that you need all of these, working in tandem, combined with a willingness to do your homework, to bring you the success you really desire. It's not enough to want it or to think you deserve it; you must earn it.

You may have some ideas about the world that are not entirely in sync with the way most people see things, and this may bring you into conflict now and then. You do not necessarily need to be willing to change your mind, but you must learn that it is perfectly acceptable for others to have conflicting opinions, ideas and attitudes about life.

Also born on this date are: Cam Newton, football player; Salvador Dali, artist; Natasha Richardson, actress; Irving Berlin, songwriter; Louis Farrakhan, religious leader; Martha Graham, choreographer; Foster Brooks, actor; Tim Blake Nelson, actor; Martha Quinn, television personality; Phil Silvers, actor and comedian; Frances Fisher, actress; Laetitia Casta, model.

THURSDAY, MAY 12

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Preventing others from finding something you wish to keep hidden is only going to distract you from doing what you really should be doing.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You're very interested in the outcome of a conflict that is being played out not far from where you are right now. Get info firsthand.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You'll be able to set aside a few key concerns as you realize that the picture that has influenced you is changing of late.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You mustn't stop simply because you've reached a sensible stopping point. It's important for you to get as much done as possible!

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Putting your own stamp on what you do comes very naturally, but are you sure that you want to advertise yourself so openly right now?

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Others may be making a game out of something that is of the utmost importance to you. It doesn't take away from what you are going through.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- Primary and secondary motivations may conflict, making it impossible for you to move forward as planned. A day off can't hurt.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You're only going to attract criticism if you insist on finding fault with others. Save it for another time.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You're far too interested in the what and when, and not enough in the why -- which is what really counts!

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You must protect your creativity by doing only what you feel moved to do. You mustn't fall into the trap of doing things out of habit.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- Something important could easily pass you by, so you'll want to pay close attention whenever anything is in transit around you.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You must resist the temptation to copy another's style. You are bound to be found out, and it won't serve you well at all.

Your Birthday for May 10, 2016

Your Birthday | May 10th, 2016

Born today, you seem to be quite common and ordinary -- the salt of the earth in many respects -- but there is another aspect of your character that can be quite surprising and unexpected, even to those who can claim to know you best. You are generally even-keeled, sensible, generous, supportive, sympathetic and understanding -- and this is the persona that you prefer to display to the world at large. Your darker side, however, tends toward the flighty, the mercurial, the self-involved, the explosive and the judgmental, and that's not at all how you want people to see you. The trick, of course, is balancing these two sides and choosing when to allow each to be dominant.

You are proud and fiercely loyal; anyone who has won your friendship can be confident that you will be there, come what may. You are also wildly creative, always coming up with one crazy idea after another. Some of these may never get anywhere, but many will surely come to fruition.

Also born on this date are: Bono, singer; Missy Franklin, Olympic swimmer; Fred Astaire, actor, dancer and singer; Sid Vicious, singer; Judith Jamison, choreographer; Pat Summerall, sportscaster; Chris Berman, sportscaster; Nancy Walker, actress; Gary Owens, television personality; Donovan, singer; Kenan Thompson, actor.

WEDNESDAY, MAY 11

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You're reacting to things in a way that makes it impossible for people to engage with you in a moderate fashion. Conflict may be unavoidable.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You'll want to be sure to get your timing right, or you're unlikely to get all the pieces of the puzzle to fit together correctly.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Putting your best foot forward may not be as easy as you had anticipated; the footing itself may be treacherous and unsteady.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You have news for someone in your immediate family, but you may not know just how to put it. Kindly and directly is likely your best bet.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You may receive a piece of information that affects not only your work schedule, but your personal plans as well. Some juggling is required.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You have high expectations for something that may not come to pass as you'd hoped. You may want to consider a different approach.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- A fraction of your time can be spent on personal needs. Most of your energy should be devoted to a friend's immediate concerns.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- Others may not accept your version of certain events as gospel, but the fact is that yours is likely the most accurate account to date.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- Are you making decisions based on available information, or out of a need to hide something from others? You must know!

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Probability plays an important role in your day, and you must confirm that the odds are in your favor before charting a certain course.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You're in need of something new to get you excited about what lies ahead. Otherwise, everything will seem very routine.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You're not seeing things as clearly as you might. Do what you can to clear your head of all extraneous and distracting thoughts.
