Your Birthday for November 06, 2017

Your Birthday | November 6th, 2017

Born today, you are a trusting soul, for the very reason that you are so trustworthy. You are also one of those rare individuals who is considered by most to be "good to the core," and for this reason you're not likely to see the worst in others, but rather the best. This of course gives you certain key advantages in life, but it can also prevent you from facing certain unpleasant realities that are made worse when you do not face them directly! It may be possible, at times -- especially when you are young -- for others to take advantage of you and your perceived naivete; because you are not the kind to act out of malice, you aren't one to see malice in others -- which can prove problematic at times, especially if you enter into a profession traditionally marred by pretense and deception.

You are highly creative, and though you may not have the kind of talent that occurs once in a lifetime, you are certainly able to make things happen for yourself, to chart a course that can bring you lasting success and to ensure the kind of inner contentment that goes so well with your rather innocent, kind nature.

Also born on this date are: Emma Stone, actress; Pat Tillman, football player and soldier; Thandie Newton, actress; Rebecca Romijn, model and actress; Ethan Hawke, actor and author; Maria Shriver, newswoman; Sally Field, actress; Glenn Frey, singer, songwriter, musician; Mike Nichols, film director; John Philip Sousa, composer and bandleader.

TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 7

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Give yourself something you want today, and you'll be ready to face a difficult situation tomorrow. You needn't always deny yourself.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- It may take you longer than usual to muster up a few simple, usable ideas today, but once you do you'll be able to pick up the pace.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- What goes on all around you today is worth noting, but you don't have to pay attention to every detail. You've got other things on your mind.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You'll be inspired by some of the most unusual things today -- and by some of the most mundane. Someone is ready to reveal a new opportunity.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Even the simple things will take time today, and you must be willing to devote whatever it takes to reach the goals you've set for yourself.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You can capitalize on another's error, but when the time comes you'll also want to share your winnings with that very person.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You may feel that you've been in someone else's shadow long enough, but you're not sure what to do about it. A sign points the way today.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You may require an expert opinion before the day is out, but that doesn't mean you have to follow his or her advice. Think it through.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- Progress can be made in an unusual way today, but don't expect it to be speedy. You have much to account for when all is said and done.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Sitting across from the one you love, you'll realize that you have so much that you've always wanted. What you don't have, you don't need.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You may be separated from someone who loves you and inspires you. Which is more important right now -- and how do you compensate for it?

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- Avoid talk that doesn't go anywhere today; communication about those things that are underway is certainly required!

Your Birthday for November 05, 2017

Your Birthday | November 5th, 2017

Born today, you have what it takes to be a real influence in your life, professionally and personally. You have a natural style and flair that are universally admired, and many will try to be as much like you as possible -- though it will be hard for anyone to successfully imitate you. You are perhaps not as physically strong or resilient as you might be, and yet you radiate a kind of inner strength that is palpable to behold; you can stop a person in his or her tracks simply with a look. There is quite an emotional fire inside of you, the kind that informs all you do, professionally and personally. You are driven to connect with others, whether emotionally, intellectually or physically. Your interest in human interaction will shape the greater portion of your life.

Luck will surely play a part in your ultimate success, but that is not to suggest that you are simply along for the ride. On the contrary, you know how to make the best of even accidental opportunities -- and that is the point! You know how to put yourself in the right place at the right time, ready to work and enjoy your just deserts.

Also born on this date are: Tatum O'Neal, actress; Tilda Swinton, actress; Bryan Adams, singer; Sam Shepard, playwright and actor; Art Garfunkel, singer and songwriter; Elke Sommer, actress; Ike Turner, rock pioneer; Vivien Leigh, actress; Joel McCrea, actor.

MONDAY, NOVEMBER 6

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You are looking for something that is not where it is supposed to be. By day's end, you may realize that much is out of sync, temporarily.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You can expect someone to arrive ahead of schedule today, so you will want to get some things done prior to the usual deadline.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You're likely to be challenged by someone who is not yet ready to go head-to-head with you; you may want to pull back a bit, surely.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- The results you expect and those you get are likely to be quite different from each other. Was this the result of your planning or execution?

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Just because you're not enthusiastic about what lies ahead doesn't mean you can't make a good showing when you do take part. Invest yourself!

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You can enjoy doing something quite unusual today, especially if a friend decides to go along for the ride. You make a discovery.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- Daylight hours may be strictly routine, but after dark you may be faced with a choice that requires some creative thinking on your part.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You're going to have to do things in a way that satisfies the rules set down by others today -- and there's no way around it. Get to work!

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- Just because you haven't heard from someone doesn't mean you haven't been on his or her mind. Why not reach out right now?

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You can make a strong start today, but an obstacle appears in your path and requires you to devise a new route to follow.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You can show off a little today without attracting any of the usual criticism. Others are eager to assess the value of your performance.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You can't expect things to fall out the way you want them to simply because you've willed it so. You must work hard to secure success.

Your Birthday for November 04, 2017

by Stella Wilder

Your Birthday | November 4th, 2017

Born today, you are not one to take the world by storm all at once; rather, you will require time and training, and will have to employ a great deal of patience too, as you make your way step by step toward the goals that you have set for yourself. The truth is that there may be times in which you distract yourself with behavior that is not conducive to success, and that in fact may be quite harmful to you and those around you. Still, you can be counted on to set aside such dangerous habits in favor of a life that is upstanding, honorable, admirable and above all satisfying. What is success to you? Like anyone else, you want to be comfortable and contented, but what sets you apart is your interest in accomplishments that are quite rare. You are drawn to projects that are unusual in the extreme.

You have a natural charm that attracts all manner of individuals into your orbit. You enjoy the social scene, and when young you may well overdo it at times -- but as you age and mellow you will find a way to enjoy yourself from a safer distance than before. While you like to have fun, you seem to prefer watching other people have fun even more.

Also born on this date are: Matthew McConaughey, actor; Ralph Macchio, actor; Kathy Griffin, comedian; Laura Bush, U.S. first lady; Loretta Swit, actress; Martin Balsam, actor; Art Carney, actor and comic; Walter Cronkite, newsman; Will Rogers, cowboy humorist.

SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 5

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You've been looking into the same issue for quite some time, but to little effect. Today, why not try coming at it from a different angle?

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- That which concerns you only peripherally is likely to become more important as the day wears on. The way you interact with others is key.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You may be trying to hide something that is already common knowledge. Why not fess up, and move on to something more important?

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You're keeping things going for personal reasons, but perhaps it's time to recognize the need for at least a temporary change.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- That which you've avoided in the past may prove to be quite good for you today, so long as you can see your way clear to trying it at least once.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- The lessons you learned yesterday can certainly be applied today, and you are eager to see where all this self-improvement will lead!

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- Someone is going to want to know just whose side you're on today, but perhaps you don't know just yet. It's something you should decide, surely!

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- A promise made quite some time ago is finally kept today -- and you'll be released from any further obligation. Where do you go from here?

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You can catch up with a friend who has spent a good deal of time far from your usual haunts. He or she has a few stories to tell!

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Your ability to combine many efforts into a single comprehensive endeavor will come in very handy today -- for you and those working with you.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- Now is no time to play guessing games; you must be willing to look directly at the facts, and able to come up with a concrete conclusion.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- A quickening of the pace needn't leave you in the dust; you are perfectly able to keep up -- especially as other things are going your way.
