Your Birthday for November 26, 2016

by Stella Wilder

Your Birthday | November 26th, 2016

Born today, you are quite adept at using your experience to shape your life, to apply the lessons learned on a daily basis to future endeavors and to learn from what you encounter. In this way, you become better equipped to handle yourself in future situations that may be beyond your immediate control. You are highly creative, and you know how to use almost everything in a positive way. Even the most unfortunate event can take on a whole new meaning when you start shaping it for the future, and others are sure to appreciate your ability to put a positive spin on the most negative of developments. You can be quite emotional: quick to love, quick to anger and quick to forgive. You're not one to hold a grudge -- life is too short for such a waste of energy and time!

You do your best work entirely on your own. You are not, in the main, a team player -- though you can join forces with others when circumstances make it absolutely essential for you to do so. After that, however, you're back to your old ways as quickly as possible, doing what you do best, all on your own.

Also born on this date are: Robert Goulet, singer and actor; Eric Sevareid, journalist; Bat Masterson, law enforcement officer; Charles Schulz, cartoonist; Rich Little, impressionist; Dale Jarrett, auto racer; Tina Turner, singer and actress.

SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 27

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You have good reason to break with someone who has been a constant challenge recently. Perhaps it's time to go it alone for a while.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Those who have been assisting you are less in touch with what you really need than you are -- so maybe what you need is less help!

Your Birthday for November 25, 2016

by Stella Wilder

Your Birthday | November 25th, 2016

Born today, you are not the kind to sit back and let others do or say things that offend you in any way; rather, you are likely to launch an aggressive counterattack and do whatever you can to compel the retraction of whatever statement has done you wrong. You are opinionated, expressive and highly motivated to see that your ideals are not trodden upon or challenged in any way. While you do believe that everyone is entitled to his or her own opinions and beliefs, you nevertheless tend to think that anyone who is not in line with you is, quite simply, misguided or mistaken!

You are able to make your way in almost any social circle, and though you are unique in many ways, your ability to blend will surely give you the advantage in many cases. You have some wild ideas that you will surely want to see come to fruition in your lifetime, but this will often take a great deal of hard work.

Also born on this date are: Christina Applegate, actress; Amy Grant, singer; Carrie Nation, activist; John F. Kennedy Jr., publisher; Joe DiMaggio, baseball player; Ricardo Montalban, actor; John Larroquette, actor; Karl F. Benz, automaker.

SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 26

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Take things one step at a time, and you should keep from stumbling. It's only when you try to tackle too much that you face certain danger.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- What once meant more to you than anything may become forgettable in light of something else you have recently discovered.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You are facing a challenge from someone who thinks he or she knows you well, but you have something up your sleeve for just such occasions.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You may be ready to commit to something that only yesterday seemed unsuitable -- or even dangerous. You know what has made the difference.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You can shed light on a mystery that others have been pondering for some time. It's all a matter of putting things in the right order.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You may have to work harder than usual to get someone ready for a coming challenge. He or she really is depending on you.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- One who is usually there to help get your juices flowing will be strangely absent. You're on your own -- for a while, anyway.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You may think you see double meanings in much that you read and hear, but this all depends on the original source.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You may experience emotional pain that is left over from a past encounter. It's time to rid yourself of it once and for all.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Not everyone is going to come to your defense when you are attacked unfairly. This will tell you who your friends really are!

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- An unfortunate episode from your past is worth revisiting. It will tell you much about something that is about to transpire.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- Someone may have forgotten that you're not interested in what he or she has to offer, and you'll have to say no all over again.

Your Birthday for November 24, 2016

by Stella Wilder

Your Birthday | November 24th, 2016

Born today, you are one of the smartest individuals born under a sign known for intelligence, as your gift is somewhat different from the Sagittarian norm. You are always able to maintain a kind of mental flexibility that others do not, enabling you to navigate even the most complex issues with relative ease. This makes it possible for you to argue against or in favor of almost anything, to the extent that some may think you are incapable of forming solid opinions about an issue as you frequently say one thing and then turn around and proclaim just the opposite. Does this reflect a changeable spirit? Not at all, but it does demonstrate that others had better be on their toes when debating any matter of import or substance with you!

You often tend to take what has been done before and do it in your own way. You love to put your unique stamp on things, and you're likely to be long remembered for breaking the mold in one particular area and pointing the way to a whole new realm of human accomplishment.

Also born on this date are: Katherine Heigl, actress; William F. Buckley Jr., writer and television host; Charles "Lucky" Luciano, Mafia boss; Scott Joplin, composer; Zachary Taylor, U.S. president; Colin Hanks, actor.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You're sitting pretty, but not everyone agrees that you have what it takes to remain at the top. Someone will challenge you soon.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You may not have heard from a certain friend or loved one in quite a while, but you feel that your bond is as strong as ever.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You want to carry on by yourself for a while, without taking advantage of any help or hints offered by those who have been where you are.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- Someone far from home is holding you in a kind of spell that is difficult to shake off. If you were together, this could be a good thing!

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- Distance makes the heart grow not just fonder, but desperate. It's important that you get in touch and tell it like it is.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You may feel as though your back is up against the wall, but you must recognize that it's a position you have put yourself in.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You may find it difficult to make a promise that someone is waiting to receive wholeheartedly. What is holding you back?

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You'll have something to celebrate by day's end, and you know just whom you wish to celebrate with -- if you can arrange things correctly.
