Your Birthday for June 14, 2016

by Stella Wilder

Your Birthday | June 14th, 2016

Born today, you are known for doing things your way, for saying what is on your mind, and for pursuing goals that others think are far beyond your reach. Still, you may have something of a Midas touch, in that you are able to make a success out of virtually anything you try. Occasionally, however, you may come upon something that is just so far out of your sphere, or that is so difficult or risky, that you choose not to go down that particular road. There is something of the joker in your makeup, but the problem is that other people don't always know when you are joking! You may sometimes be taken seriously when serious is the last thing you intend to be!

You are no stranger to hard work, and you can be tenacious to a fault. You are not always liked by everyone: Those who do like you, love you; those who do not like you, actually hate you. When it comes to people's opinions of you, there is very little middle ground.

Also born on this date are: Donald Trump, entrepreneur and politician; Yasmine Bleeth, actress; Boy George, singer; Che Guevara, revolutionary; Marla Gibbs, actress; Harriet Beecher Stowe, author; Steffi Graf, tennis player; Burl Ives, singer and actor; Eric Heiden, Olympic speed skater; Will Patton, actor; Lang Lang, pianist; Gene Barry, actor; Pierre Salinger, politician; Jerzy Kosinski, author.

WEDNESDAY, JUNE 15

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You can perform a service for someone while tending to your own business. This kind of double duty comes naturally to you.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- What you see happening all around you is sure to prompt question after question. The answers come to you much more slowly, however.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Your work will be appreciated, but the results may not satisfy you completely. You can always take a second crack at it.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- The sooner you do someone else a favor or offer assistance, the sooner you will find your own efforts being supported in useful ways.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You may not want to follow another's instructions any longer, but have you really learned all you can? Stick with it for another day or two.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- A solo turn surprises those around you, as you demonstrate skills that no one expected you to have. This is only the beginning!

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You'll once again feel the natural, inevitable gravitational pull between you and someone who used to be a central figure in your life.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- Now is the time to stake a claim to something you believe is yours by rights. Your boldness can win the day.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You must get to the point before you lose the attention of your audience. Be imaginative and creative as you express yourself.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You're trying to protect someone who may not actually require protection. Still, this interaction can benefit both parties.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You're willing to give something a try, but you're going to have to put yourself at considerable risk just to get started.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- Improving your self-image is most important. Perhaps it's time to listen to someone who sees you as truly special!

Your Birthday for June 13, 2016

by Stella Wilder

Your Birthday | June 13th, 2016

Born today, you aren't always sure that what you are doing and where you are heading are what you really want. In your youth, you may have been at the mercy of those who made life decisions for you and determined -- without your input -- what opportunities you would pursue. The result is that you may have been wildly successful at something for which you were not really suited, or that you did not really enjoy or find satisfying in any meaningful way. When the time comes for you to stand on your own and make your own decisions, you're likely to surprise many in what you do, where you go and with whom you choose to associate. You may become rather rebellious as you satisfy your own desires.

You have a strong, forceful personality, and you're sure to be noticed -- at work, at play and whenever you are simply traveling about the world. Attracting attention wherever you go is something that happens automatically; you have no real control over it whatsoever!

Also born on this date are: Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, actresses; Tim Allen, comedian and actor; Ally Sheedy, actress; Malcolm McDowell, actor; Richard Thomas, actor; Paul Lynde, actor; Stellan Skarsgard, actor; Basil Rathbone, actor; William Butler Yeats, poet; Christo, artist; Chris Evans, actor.

TUESDAY, JUNE 14

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You're making a bigger deal of something than you should. On the other hand, no one else is paying any attention to the problem at all.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Say yes when you mean yes, and no when you mean no, and leave no room for interpretation! You must be direct and clear.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Take care that you're not too heavy-handed, literally or figuratively. Overexertion can only work against you in the end.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You don't have to prove that you are cool. There's someone who knows a little more about you than you might wish.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Getting the best possible result is going to require a light touch. Putting yourself in another's shoes lends the right perspective.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You can share an experience with an old friend. What happens outside the safety of your home should be kept under wraps for a while.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You're likely to come up against a challenging audience -- those who are willing to listen, but not necessarily to believe.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- What you most want to happen, you can make happen -- but not immediately. Important groundwork can be laid, however.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You may have to do some additional research in order to get the pieces of a puzzle into place. A helper surprises you.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Something you do can give you more of a thrill than expected, and that's because of your involvement with a certain someone.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You're not getting precisely what you need, but you can find it if you go looking in the right places. Don't wait.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You're in no mood to have anyone try to fool you. Make it clear, as soon as you can, that you will brook no deception of any kind.

Your Birthday for June 12, 2016

by Stella Wilder

Your Birthday | June 12th, 2016

Born today, you are able to follow the straight and narrow no matter what happens. You never turn away from your beliefs and ideals, regardless of any challenges you may face. You are strong-willed, hard-working and always able to do what you think is right, however difficult it may be. Indeed, your ability to follow the path you have chosen, regardless of what you encounter along the way, will surely be your greatest asset in life; it will carry you a long way toward the goals you set for yourself. You may not be as ambitious as some others, but you are likely to get further than many, simply because you refuse to let circumstances control you in any significant way.

You are emotionally complex, and it is difficult to track your likes and dislikes with any accuracy. As soon as someone thinks he or she knows what you are about, you'll do something that defies comprehension. Even so, you're always certain to be true to yourself.

Also born on this date are: George H.W. Bush, U.S. president; Anne Frank, diarist; Jim Nabors, actor and singer; Chick Corea, musician; Vic Damone, singer; Marv Albert, sportscaster.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- The results you are after will be hard-won, and you'll have much to be proud of when all is said and done.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You won't want to do anything to upset the apple cart. Take the path of least resistance, and all should come out fine.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You're trying to do too much with an opportunity that actually demands that you do very little out of the ordinary.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You're likely to find yourself in a situation that presents many things in a topsy-turvy manner. Take time to adjust the view.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You're working with a schedule that is not of your making, but which likely affects all aspects of your daily life.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You're not likely to undo the damage done in yesterday's mistake until you admit what you did in the first place.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You're almost certain to be praised for your ability to think on your feet, even though a few of your ideas fall flat.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You will be on the road in the near future, but you should have the chance to address an issue at home that is not going anywhere.
