Your Birthday | August 4th, 2016

Born today, you know perhaps better than anyone born under your sign how to spot an opportunity, cultivate it, develop it and reap the greatest possible gains in the end. From an early age, you will be very interested in doing the impossible, but not all by yourself. You are most keen on projects that require you to collaborate with others, to pull together those with like talents and aspirations in order to conquer the world. You can be quite spontaneous, and you know how to take advantage of unexpected developments. You are also an expert planner; you know how to chart a course that will lead inevitably to the threshold of success and greatness.

Some may warn you against doing too much too soon, because you will then have to struggle to repeat your great deeds. This is not something that worries you at all, for you are quite prepared to take on new challenges when you have met those that arose when you were young.

Also born on this date are: Barack Obama, U.S. president; Cole and Dylan Sprouse, actors; Louis Armstrong, singer and musician; Elizabeth, Queen Mother of Great Britain; Billy Bob Thornton, actor and director; Richard Belzer, actor; Roger Clemens, baseball player; Percy Bysshe Shelley, 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, AUGUST 5

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You can offer up something that has others excited about the possibilities for future collaborations. You'll bring your best to bear.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You needn't fabricate a story to explain what you've done; the simple truth will be enough to satisfy even your harshest critics.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You can use the time to your advantage while waiting for someone else to come through with his or her end of a joint venture.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You may profit from another's mistakes, but don't make a big deal out of it. You can offer help at your earliest convenience.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You may be waiting on a friend or co-worker to provide you with the last piece of a rather tricky puzzle. You have more time than you think.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You will have to consider travel time when putting together the schedule for your day. You may have to go farther than expected.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You don't have all that far to go, but you'll still want to get an early start. There's much to do once you reach your destination.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You can set aside your work to accommodate another's needs -- if the timing is just right. Otherwise, you must simply plug ahead.

Your Birthday for August 03, 2016

Your Birthday | August 3rd, 2016

Born today, you are likely to pursue one single line of endeavor throughout your lifetime until it brings you the success, notoriety and financial security you want in life. This single-mindedness of purpose will be on display from an early age, and those who come in contact with you will recognize the tenacity and willpower that can make you virtually unstoppable. Your ambitions are never hidden from view; you make no apologies for wanting what you want -- and wanting to be the best. You are willing to work hard to reach your goals, but take care! There may be times when you are also willing to bend the rules to ensure a victory that is already in the bag. Do you really want to risk everything that way?

You can be quite sensitive to criticism -- a hallmark of the otherwise strong and independent Leo native -- and it may be that you have lost friends simply because you could not face the truth when you heard it from them. You must try to be less sensitive to contrary opinions; they can be very good for you when offered at the right times!

Also born on this date are: Tom Brady, football player; Martha Stewart, homemaking expert; Tony Bennett, singer; Martin Sheen, actor; John C. McGinley, actor; John Landis, director; Ryan Lochte, Olympic swimmer; James Hetfield, singer and musician.

THURSDAY, AUGUST 4

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You can trust that someone close to you has your best interests at heart and will keep you from any real dangers. Show your gratitude.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Someone may want something from you that you are not necessarily prepared to give. Or perhaps it's just that you don't really want to!

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You are expecting your creative energy to rise very soon -- and it will. In the meantime, you can deal with mundane issues very well.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- The one who recently offered you precisely what you want isn't going to wait forever for a reply. Make a decision as soon as possible!

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You may be called upon to tend to an issue that is too sensitive for others. You know the history better than anyone else.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You can do much to ease someone's tension over a necessary evil. You know that things will be looking up very soon.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You have the ability to make things much more pleasant for someone who is going through a difficult time.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You can share your views with a certain acquaintance without any risk of being misunderstood. He or she gets you.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You are not in a position to make demands of a certain individual -- yet. Soon, however, you'll be able to ask for whatever you want.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Don't neglect your own physical needs. If it's rest you require, get some! Be sure to eat right and stimulate your mind as well.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You have something very big on the docket. Tend to lesser issues as soon as you can, and give yourself ample time to prepare.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You may not have understood precisely what steps you had to take to get where you are, but it all should make sense now.

Your Birthday for August 02, 2016

Your Birthday | August 2nd, 2016

Born today, you never enjoy having your work -- or anything else about you -- criticized. It may be said that you have this in common with most other human beings, but the fact is that you are so averse to criticism that you can be sent into something of a fury when it comes your way, even when you have actually solicited the opinion of another. It is important that you maintain a kind of autonomy in life and in work that allows you to do exactly what you want to do, without having to alter your strategies, tactics or intentions to suit someone else's expectations, needs or desires. You simply don't like to feel as though someone is watching over you for any reason. You prefer to be free to do what you will, for any reason, at any time -- period.

Of course you understand that this is not often possible in real life -- but then, real life doesn't interest you all that much. You live in a kind of fantasy world of your own making, which gives you strength and confidence while you work to make your dreams come true.

Also born on this date are: James Baldwin, author; Myrna Loy, actress; Mary-Louise Parker, actress; Victoria Jackson, actress and comedian; Peter O'Toole, actor; Carroll O'Connor, actor; Wes Craven, director; Edward Furlong, actor; Tim Wakefield, baseball player.

WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 3

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- The assistance that you have been counting on may not come to you in time, so you must be willing to venture forth on your own.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You see better than anyone else what needs to be done. Soon, you'll be put in a position of authority that allows you to act on a hunch.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Give yourself credit! You've done a great deal, and you will do even more. You're showing signs of improvement every step of the way.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You can dispense with an unpleasant duty early in the day, leaving you free to enjoy time with friends and family.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You can proceed with more gusto than usual. Obstacles are few and far between. As you pick up the pace, identify the competition.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You'll be more interested in doing something the old-fashioned way rather than trying to break new ground.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You have more to say about what someone does than anyone else. When the time comes to take charge, you can do so in a manner unique to you.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You're going to consider yourself lucky by nightfall, no matter how difficult things may seem during daylight hours.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You may find yourself gravitating toward someone who shares your overall outlook -- or perhaps there is something else going on!

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You want to be close to someone who has sheltered you in the past. Do you feel as if an old threat is about to resurface?

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You may be asking questions that no one else has ever dared to ask, but they are necessary to your overall development.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You'll find yourself longing for an easier time, perhaps, but the truth is that you wouldn't really want it any other way.
