Your Birthday | August 15th, 2016

Born today, you sometimes seem to live in your own head, alone with your thoughts, dreams, schemes, ideas, philosophies and yearnings. And while your mind may, indeed, be full of all these things and more, you really come into your own when you begin to make them real -- and so you will, again and again in your lifetime. When you spring into action, you are something to behold -- a force of nature who will simply not be stopped, no matter what. If necessary, you will run straight through an obstacle that looms ahead of you, without regard for your safety or the safety of those around you. Indeed, if that obstacle is another person, someone who has pitted him- or herself against you, then the combatant within you will come out -- you will have no qualms about engaging in a fight to the finish!

On the other hand, you are deeply emotional, highly loyal, sensitive and always willing to do for friends or loved ones whatever is necessary to make their lives better in any way. You often maintain an "us versus them" mentality when it comes to your inner circle -- and everyone else!

Also born on this date are: Jennifer Lawrence, actress; Ben Affleck, actor and director; Napoleon Bonaparte, emperor; Julia Child, celebrity chef; Debra Messing, actress; Mike Connors, actor; Ethel Barrymore, actress; Stieg Larsson, author.

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.

TUESDAY, AUGUST 16

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- It's all about teamwork and camaraderie, but you may want to explore a few possibilities on your own before swinging into action.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You'll have a decision to make before the day is out that will have an effect on many around you -- some acquainted with your cause, some not.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You may have misunderstood someone's purpose, but all will be made clear. You'll know what you must do once it is.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You can persuade others to join you, but you may have to make a few concessions in order to make the best of a difficult situation.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Your ability to spot trouble before it arises will surely serve you well. Someone else has a seemingly good idea, but you know better right now.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You're likely to find yourself resting not-so-comfortably between what you want and what you need. A conflict will decide the issue.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- There's every reason to think that what you have put together is more valuable than anything else others have come up with. It's time to act.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- The competition is likely to move very quickly, and you're going to want to match them step for step. Do your job and prevail.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You can bring a problem to the lap of someone who is authorized to deal with such things. Work together, and you can win the day.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You may react with some indifference to matters brought to you by others, but your private issues will surely ignite your passions.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- Your instincts will tell you to do things by the book, but there will be some room for clever improvisation. Trust your gut.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- It'll be up to you to tell it like it is -- and then to do what you know is right when the powers that be begin to react. Be ready.

Your Birthday for August 14, 2016

Your Birthday | August 14th, 2016

Born today, you are a strong-willed individual, able to face any kind of obstacle with confidence and resolve. You never back down in the face of a challenge; you know how to dig deep and come up with just what you need to overcome it and move forward -- often without changing stride or losing any time at all. You don't always succeed, of course -- who does? -- but you know how to apply what you learn from failure to a subsequent attempt, so that it doesn't take you long to get something right and enjoy the fruits of your labor. You never believe that there is a preordained outcome to anything; you trust that what happens in your life is your own doing.

You can be somewhat old-fashioned in some things, especially when it comes to personal likes and dislikes. And while you do enjoy a challenge, this doesn't mean you don't like things that come easily to you. On the contrary, you are perfectly happy to take something for nothing when it comes your way!

Also born on this date are: Mila Kunis, actress; Halle Berry, actress; Tim Tebow, football player; Magic Johnson, basketball player; Steve Martin, actor and comedian; Doc Holliday, dentist and gunslinger; David Crosby, singer-songwriter; Danielle Steel, author; Marcia Gay Harden, actress; Susan Saint James, actress; Gary Larson, cartoonist; James Horner, composer; Sarah Brightman, singer; Alice Ghostley, actress.

MONDAY, AUGUST 15

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You may be tempted to drop what you are doing and engage a friend or loved one in some spontaneous fun -- but duty still calls.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You can give yourself most of what you need, but you'll have to ask someone else for certain things only he or she can provide.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You can lend your support to someone who is struggling with a key personal issue. He or she reminds you of yourself in younger days.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You'll want to be sure that no one suspects you of losing your cool. Keep a lid on your emotions, and avoid the most volatile situations.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You may be more concerned with money matters than you expected to be, but there will be some unforeseen expenditures to account for very soon.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- While others may react to someone's antics as expected, you're likely to respond in a very unusual way. A partnership is beginning.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You can deal with the most difficult issues when you must, and today you'll find yourself doing just that on more than one occasion.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- Someone may be keeping you from doing what you need to do, but his or her reasons are certainly valid. You may want to change your approach.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You will want to explore a certain issue more deeply than you have before. The answers that you uncover lead to more questions.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You may be revealing more than you had anticipated, but that will serve you well in the end. Honesty remains the best policy.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You may not have considered every possibility, but you have no reason not to. An obscure issue demands attention.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You don't want to make any mistake that a rival might consider a sign of weakness. Play it safe, and pay attention to every detail.

Your Birthday for August 13, 2016

Your Birthday | August 13th, 2016

Born today, you are such a highly creative individual that you may, at times, seem to exist in a wholly fantastical world of your own creation, free from the burdens carried by other mere mortals. You are able to roam unchecked through a varied and colorful landscape that is made up of bits and pieces of your dreams and fantasies and random components provided by the people you choose to let into your life. You are highly protective of your methods, style and environment; you don't let just anyone into your inner sanctum for the simple reason that you don't trust others to leave intact that which you so deeply cherish -- the world as you would have it.

While all of this may make it sound as though you are utterly incapable of being realistic, the truth is that you know very well how to live in the real world. Even better, you are able to influence and change it when you choose to do so, and you are determined to leave it a better place.

Also born on this date are: Sir Alfred Hitchcock, filmmaker; Fidel Castro, Cuban leader; Annie Oakley, sharpshooter; Bert Lahr, actor; Danny Bonaduce, actor; Dan Fogelberg, singer; George Shearing, pianist; Debi Mazar, actress; Don Ho, singer; John Slattery, actor; Sebastian Stan, actor; Philippe Petit, tightrope walker.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You may have strayed from your chosen path recently, but you'll have the chance to restore things to the way they were. All will be well.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You're not likely to set any records, but you'll get where you're going eventually -- and you may be able to do so in style.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You can improvise without revealing you don't have all the information you really require, but you must avoid outright fabrications!

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You may want to check on someone who is trying to reach out to you in an unusual way. He or she may need more than you realize.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You can apply a great deal of personal knowledge to a certain project. Others may wonder just where you get it all!

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You'll make decisions that are sure to have an impact on those who are far from home. You must wield your authority with great care.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You can afford to be a little more sensitive to the needs and feelings of others; you won't be sacrificing any personal power.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You must answer one question, and one question only, before getting down to business: For whom are you really doing it all?

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You are able to do more in the available time than most others. You'll enjoy another distinct and rare advantage, as well.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- Pay attention to your internal rhythms. Don't try to do too much before you know that you can proceed to the finish line.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You'll be able to mark the passage of time with key accomplishments. Even the slightest progress can have a big impact.
