Your Birthday for September 06, 2017

Your Birthday by by Stella Wilder

Your Birthday |

Born today, you consider yourself quite common in many respects, yet you are able to accomplish great things in life merely by putting your best foot forward, taking advantage of opportunities as they arise, and working harder than others to see that your goals are met and that your dreams do, indeed, come true. While you do enjoy the good things in life, you are also able to be quite content with the simple things. You cherish the relationships that you will foster throughout your lifetime, and you will sacrifice any kind of professional gain to maintain them. You would hate to let a friendship wither and die simply because you didn't give it enough attention -- and so, of course, you never will. Your friends provide you with strength, inspiration and confidence.

You know how to appeal to all kinds of tastes, but when it comes to your own likes and dislikes, you can be rather finicky and fickle -- indeed, what you truly like may run toward the unusual or even odd. When it comes to love, you require a great deal of trust -- more than most -- and only a person who likes the things you like as much as you do will ever fit the bill!

Also born on this date are: Jeff Foxworthy, comedian; Chris Christie, politician; Macy Gray, singer; Swoosie Kurtz, actress; Jo Anne Worley, actress and comedian; Idris Elba, actor; Tony DiTerlizzi, artist; Rosie Perez, actress; Elizabeth Vargas, news anchor; Jane Curtin, actress; Roger Waters, singer and musician; Max Schreck, actor; Jane Addams, sociologist and activist.

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.

THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 7

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You may receive an offer that will make you wonder whether things have really been going as planned. You'll have trouble saying no.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- A surprise will hit you hard and have you bottling things up inside for too long. By day's end, you must be ready to express yourself again.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You can win the praise you seek by doing what comes most naturally to you -- but one item left undone can ruin everything.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- What goes up must come down -- including your own estimation of yourself! You may find your self-esteem at an uncommonly low ebb for a time.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You don't want to deal with anyone who is unwilling to face you directly. Backroom negotiations are simply not your cup of tea.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You may discover that you are not, after all, afraid of something that you've been trying to avoid for quite some time.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- A conflict will arise between you and someone who has shared much with you in the past but who is currently breaking with tradition.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- Don't let anyone speak for you! You'll want to express yourself fully, but you certainly want to wait until the right time.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- In all things, you will be very near the center -- but not exactly so. This will allow you to see matters from various perspectives.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Background activities can prove much more substantial than anything that takes you to the fore. You know what's really going on.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You may not have all the answers, but you certainly know which questions to ask in order to get people moving in the right direction.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- There are some who are eager to see you at your wit's end, but that's not likely to happen if you follow your instincts at all times.

Your Birthday for September 05, 2017

Born today, you may not be recognized for your excellent contributions to the world until long after they have been made, but you should be able to maintain your overall confidence and positive outlook anyway. When you are finally acknowledged for all that you have done, it may spur a renaissance of sorts for you -- personally or professionally -- and you may find yourself bursting onto the scene to take the world by storm once more. You know how to work harder than most, and you also know how to enjoy hard work -- from the moment you rise to the moment you retire at the end of the day. Indeed, you wouldn't want things to come easily to you, as you wouldn't believe that you are truly worthy of such rewards. You want to earn what you get throughout your lifetime.

You have numerous personal assets that are likely to bring you a great deal of attention and admiration, but you're not the kind to take any sort of adulation very seriously. You know how fickle the public can be, and while you will take the accolades that come your way, you won't be too mournful if and when they cease.

Also born on this date are: Freddie Mercury, singer; Michael Keaton, actor; Rose McGowan, actress; Raquel Welch, actress; Bob Newhart, actor and comedian; George Lazenby, actor; John Cage, composer; Jesse James, outlaw; Cathy Guisewite, cartoonist; Dweezil Zappa, actor and musician; Chip Davis, musician; Werner Herzog, filmmaker; William Devane, actor; King Louis XIV of France.

WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 6

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You don't want to be dealing in falsehoods. Take care that no one is able to get the better of you by bending the truth at all.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You are at the helm of something that can really take off if you make the right decisions at the right times. Get expert advice.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Progress may not be easy, but even small steps can move you in the right direction. Don't be tempted to move too quickly.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Your mind is on both the future and the past, but you must think a little more about where you are standing right now.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You are more interested in doing something the old way than in finding a new method that could speed things up. What is it you really want?

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You've been listening to someone who has had the advantage for quite some time, but you're likely to find your own audience quite soon.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You cannot get everything right the first time, but something that does come easy to you can be done quite well -- again and again.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You'll want to focus on your image without bending to another's will. You have what it takes to build yourself up entirely on your own.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You've been trying very hard to keep a certain secret, but it's likely to be revealed after a poor decision on your part.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You'll maintain control of a tricky situation and still be able to maneuver with relative ease and flexibility. After dark, a decision must be made.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You can complete an important task ahead of schedule, but take care that you don't run roughshod over someone else in the process.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- What begins as fun and games may become far more competitive as you realize that a win can do much for you in the long run.

Born today, you are a highly creative individual, and you have been driven to excel from an early age -- with your first notion of what was possible for you in life, both personally and professionally. You're not the kind to fear failure; indeed, you understand that you are going to fall short of the mark many times in your pursuit of excellence. What you also understand, however, is that when you get it right, it's likely to be recognized as top-notch by most who have the privilege of observing your work. When you put your stamp on a thing, that stamp is sure to be recognized as a mark of excellence. You have many talents in many different areas, but it may be quite clear to you from childhood just what you want to do with yourself and those talents, and what goals you wish to reach in life.

You're not about to sacrifice personal contentment for professional success. You will always want to be happy in your home life while you work hard to get to and remain at the top professionally. This will take some careful balancing, but it's something you can surely do -- and others will certainly see you as a role model.

Also born on this date are: Beyonce Knowles, singer; Wes Bentley, actor; Mitzi Gaynor, actress; Dick York, actor; Tom Watson, golfer; Ione Skye, actress; Damon Wayans, actor and comedian; Mark Ronson, DJ and producer; John DiMaggio, voice actor; Max Greenfield, actor; Mike Piazza, baseball player; Khandi Alexander, actress and choreographer.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Focus on that which is brought to your attention by a good friend, and you'll find yourself benefiting in many surprising ways.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You may be shown something that will affect you in a far more personal way than anyone might have anticipated. A new phase is beginning.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You'll find yourself doing more waiting than moving, but you can use the time to your advantage if you open up a book or two.
