Your Birthday for June 21, 2018

by Stella Wilder

Your Birthday | June 21st, 2018

Born today, you enjoy nothing so much as a big project -- unless it is being in charge of that same project. For you, there is nothing quite like calling the shots. Are you always going to get away with such behavior? Not at all! And that's why you must learn to hand over the reins now and then and let others run things while you go off and enjoy doing something else. You can be quite manipulative at times, and you can occasionally lose sight of the truth, preferring instead to believe what you tell yourself. You are never bashful when it comes to the big issues in life; you will share your opinions freely, and you will also do everything you can to persuade others that your opinion is fact.

Those who let you down aren't likely to do so again because you usually choose not to interact with such individuals. After being disappointed once, you will do all you can to avoid future disappointment! You are at times easily insulted; anyone who does you harm had better get ready for a long, drawn-out fight.

Also born on this date are: Prince William, Duke of Cambridge; Juliette Lewis, actress; Meredith Baxter, actress; Jane Russell, actress; Michael Gross, actor; Jean-Paul Sartre, philosopher and author; Mariette Hartley, actress; Kathy Mattea, singer; Al Hirschfeld, caricaturist; Tony Scott, filmmaker; Bernie Kopell, actor.

FRIDAY, JUNE 22

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You and a new friend have much in common, but it's the things that are different between you that prove to be most fascinating right now.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You may not have a complete grasp of the timeframe that you are facing right now. You're going to have to work much faster than usual!

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- Your energy is running high, but it's not because of something you can easily control. Your moods may prove inconsistent today.

Your Birthday for June 20, 2018

Your Birthday | June 20th, 2018

Born today, you may not be widely recognized as a hypocrite, but there are those who suspect that you may say one thing while you busy yourself doing something quite different. Why is that? The truth is that you are never satisfied with any one thing, no matter what it may be -- a job, a relationship or even a place to call "home." You crave variety in all things, and you give yourself entirely to whatever it is that wins your attention. All of this would no doubt be quite intolerable, but for the fact that you are always able to laugh at yourself and your inconsistencies first and loudest.

There are times in which you prefer to be entirely alone, free from the responsibilities that come with interacting with others. At such times you can be quite studious, even meditative, and you will not tolerate being disturbed.

Also born on this date are: Nicole Kidman, actress; Lionel Richie, singer; John Goodman, actor; Brian Wilson, singer and songwriter; Grace Potter, singer; Audie Murphy, Medal of Honor recipient; Anne Murray, singer; Danny Aiello, actor; Errol Flynn, actor; Martin Landau, actor; Robert Rodriguez, filmmaker; Josh Lucas, actor; John Mahoney, actor; Olympia Dukakis, actress; Stephen Frears, filmmaker.

Your Birthday for June 19, 2018

Your Birthday | June 19th, 2018

Born today, you tend to be overindulgent when it comes to anything that attracts your eye or your ear, or whets your appetite. You will rarely if ever say "enough." While this can prove dangerous at times, you're not about to change your ways. You live life to the fullest, and you are quite proud of the fact that nothing seems to frighten you. You think of yourself as invulnerable -- and in many situations and circumstances, you are. You enjoy having plenty to eat and drink, you enjoy falling in and out of love, and you cannot get enough of the good things in life.

One secret you try to keep from the world at large is the fact that you can be quite squeamish at times; it's just as much as a surprise to you as to anyone else what suddenly has you turning pale and averting your eyes. Such things sneak up on you without warning, simply because it is something you never consider before it happens.

Also born on this date are: Paula Abdul, singer; Phylicia Rashad, actress; Moe Howard, member of the Three Stooges; Lou Gehrig, baseball player; Mia Sara, actress; Hugh Dancy, actor; Kathleen Turner, actress; Ann Wilson, singer; Gena Rowlands, actress; Poppy Montgomery, actress; Paul Dano, actor; Salman Rushdie, author; Pier Angeli, actress; Louis Jourdan, actor; Mildred Natwick, actress.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Time is of the essence today, but the more you try to manipulate the clock, the further into a hole you may get. Don't force any issues!

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Keeping things from your friends and family is the surest way to get embroiled in something you cannot get out of again. Play it safe!

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You may think you've completed a project to everyone's satisfaction, but someone is likely to lodge a complaint. What did you miss?
