Your Birthday for June 08, 2017

by Stella Wilder

Your Birthday | June 8th, 2017

Born today, you have a great deal of personal style, and your sense for the dramatic is perhaps equaled by none. Indeed, you know how to take any routine situation and turn it into something extraordinary -- and in that way attract a great deal of attention to yourself and your endeavors. You're likely to find yourself in the spotlight quite often in life, and though it may be uncomfortable for you in the beginning, you are sure to grow accustomed to it and even come to enjoy it in your maturity. You have considerable talent, but are better known for your personality, behavior and unique flair. While others must rely on their actions to be noteworthy, you are renowned without doing anything at all! Others are drawn to you as moths to a flame, and you may use this to your advantage again and again.

Humor is one of your greatest tools, whether at work or at play. You sincerely believe that laughter is the best medicine, and that the surest way to get someone to learn something is through wit and humor. This is not to say that you cannot see things in a sober light; indeed you can. But you can also laugh at almost anything, given the right circumstances.

Also born on this date are: Joan Rivers, comedian and television host; Keenan Ivory Wayans, actor and filmmaker; Frank Lloyd Wright, architect; Bonnie Tyler, singer; Julianna Margulies, actress; Nancy Sinatra, singer; Jerry Stiller, actor; LeRoy Nieman, artist; Barbara Bush, U.S. first lady; Sonia Braga, actress; Boz Scaggs, singer and musician; Robert Preston, actor; Byron White, U.S. Supreme Court justice; Griffin Dunne, actor.

FRIDAY, JUNE 9

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You can't be expected to keep all of your opinions to yourself, but one or two are not to be shared just yet. You'll get a sign.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Others are waiting for you to step forward and take a more aggressive stance. Be sure, however, that you at least follow your own rules.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Are you willing to follow the rules -- not just some, but all of them? If so, you'll find you can do something you never imagined.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Someone may think you're trying to take advantage in some way, but you're only expecting everyone around you to do his or her part.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You can give someone precisely the assistance that he or she needs, and you'll see that this is something you can also do for yourself.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You don't have to do exactly what others are doing if you want to be a part of what is going on. Your individuality will get you far.

Your Birthday for June 07, 2017

by Stella Wilder

Your Birthday | June 7th, 2017

Born today, you are a strong, capable, far-sighted individual who will surely be able to set and reach long-term goals again and again through the years. You do not have to be overly aggressive to get what you want; you put your faith in your natural talents and the belief that hard work put in over time will always pay off. For you, it almost surely will! It doesn't hurt that you have a winning personality and the ability to attract all kinds of people into your orbit, often with the desire to do all they can to further your agenda. To others, you seem to have a special destiny. Indeed, those around you are likely to foresee your ultimate success long before you do.

You are attractive to both men and women, but for very different reasons: some want to be you, while others merely want to be with you -- even if only for one brief fling! You have a certain charisma that evokes sexual attraction with very little warning, so you are bound to leave a trail of broken hearts in your wake.

Also born on this date are: Prince, singer-songwriter and musician; Tom Jones, singer; Liam Neeson, actor; Dean Martin, singer and actor; Bear Grylls, television personality; Kim Rhodes, actress; Anna Kournikova, tennis player; Paul Gauguin, painter; Jessica Tandy, actress; James Ivory, filmmaker; Thurman Munson, baseball player; James J. Braddock, boxer; Bill Hader, actor; Michael Cera, actor; Iggy Azalea, rapper; Dave Navarro, musician and television personality.

THURSDAY, JUNE 8

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You may have to get in touch with someone you would usually avoid in order to get a certain piece of information you desperately need.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Your concern for a loved one will come to a head as emotions erupt, prompting others to run for cover. It's time to step in and fix things!

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You're likely to attract some attention, but perhaps for the wrong reason. You may have to go back and undo a strange error.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You'll start the day on a note of high expectation and hit the ground running, but things may get bogged down through no fault of yours.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You have a great many details to iron out before you can get in touch with someone and tell him or her that everything is ready to go.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Your process is still evolving, despite your feeling that everything is as it should be. Give yourself just a little more time.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- Keeping track of all the little things will be important throughout the day. It's not enough to have an understanding of the big picture.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You don't want to be the cause of any rising tensions, so why not just let bygones be bygones? You've been overly sensitive lately.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You may be suspicious of someone's motives, but there's little you can do to set things right (if indeed they are wrong).

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- Your ability to see what is really going on -- despite everyone else's apparent blindness -- will serve you and others well.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You can make others laugh in order to get past something that was more troubling than it should have been. It's the best medicine, after all!

Your Birthday for June 06, 2017

by Stella Wilder

Your Birthday | June 6th, 2017

Born today, you don't walk around as if you know how special you are, or talented, intelligent or wise, but you are indeed all of these things. Anyone who takes the time to get to know you even a little bit cannot help but recognize that you are one of the most gifted individuals they've met! You may be inclined to dismiss this as mere hyperbole, for you see yourself as nothing but a normal person trying to make your way as best you can in a world that is no kinder to you than it is to anyone else. Your down-to-earth, practical, everyday approach to life is perhaps your single greatest asset -- it is also what attracts the most admirers. Others are often astonished that you can be who you are and do what you do while remaining so genuinely humble.

Like many Gemini natives, you have roiling passions that you control carefully -- but these do inform almost everything you do in the professional arena. You cannot do anything without feeling strongly about it. In fact, you will turn down many opportunities because they do not rouse your emotions. To do a thing well, you must care about it!

Also born on this date are: Robert Englund, actor; Thomas Mann, author; Jason Isaacs, actor; Paul Giamatti, actor; Nathan Hale, soldier; Bjorn Borg, tennis player; Natalie Morales, news anchor; Max Casella, actor; Steve Vai, musician; Levi Stubbs, singer; Harvey Fierstein, actor and writer; Alexander Pushkin, author; Sandra Bernhard, comedian and actress.

WEDNESDAY, JUNE 7

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Stick to the schedule and insist that others do the same. If you do not, you are likely to sacrifice almost-certain success.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- An unseen danger must be avoided, but how? Talk to those who have been in similar situations before, and don't hide from the truth!

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Others may be surprised by the way you are handling an unexpected situation. A loved one knows that you are in the zone right now.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You have a great many things to set straight, and it's important for you to address key issues as they arise. You won't be held back!

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Someone who has been watching you from the sidelines is interested in joining your team and playing a more active role. Are you ready for that?

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You may not know what is expected of you right now, but you know that if you follow your instincts, you will surely end up on the right track.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You aren't able to lead others through dangerous territory, but you can give them detailed directions. After that, they're on their own.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You are working toward a goal that is shared by many, but you are in the lead and will likely be the first person to get there.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You'll identify several people who need something from you, even though they haven't approached you directly.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You're eager to demonstrate consistency in your work, and you can do so -- but late in the day a controversy may send you off course.
