Your Birthday for May 29, 2019

by Stella Wilder

Your Birthday | May 29th, 2019

Born today, you are one of the most promising individuals born under your sign, endowed with tremendous physical gifts, a personality to match and the willingness and ability to apply your many talents to the problems you encounter in a forward-thinking, creative and always positive manner. You thrive on involvement; you always want to be where the action is, and you can become very disheartened if you are always kept in the background. You want to be the cause of things, and the first line of defense when things get tough; you don't want to be merely reactive, but proactive -- the kind of person who can anticipate events, act quickly and keep things moving forward at an always accelerating pace. You are ambitious and strong-willed; you are used to getting your way and reaching your goals.

You are not always aware of what other people really think of you, and you may assume that others like you when, in fact, they are merely treating you with courtesy out of their own self-interest. You are susceptible to the charms of the opposite sex, and you may develop a reputation for having a wandering eye. Others like to be in your company, surely.

Also born on this date are: John F. Kennedy, U.S. president; Daniel Tosh, comedian; LaToya Jackson, singer; Bob Hope, actor and comedian; Patrick Henry, statesman; Annette Bening, actress; Danny Elfman, composer.

THURSDAY, MAY 30

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You may suspect that something has gone missing when in fact it is right where it belongs -- and has been all along. What's the confusion?

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You may have to do a little more than usual today to impress upon someone your firm ideas of right and wrong. Now is no time to compromise.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You may encounter some unexpected difficulties today when doing something you had thought would be merely routine. Someone is responsible.

Your Birthday for May 28, 2019

Your Birthday | May 28th, 2019

Born today, you are never one to doubt yourself, and you will move forward with strength and confidence once you have assessed a situation, weighed the pros and cons, determined any and all potential gains or losses, and decided on a course of action. You are no daredevil, however; you always have your best interest at heart -- and your own safety, too. You will face danger when you have to, however, and you are far more likely to face it yourself than have anyone else face it for you. When there is something to be done, you want to do it yourself; you're not one to delegate your duties or responsibilities to others.

You are keenly aware of what is going on around you at all times, and you have a kind of sixth sense that enables you to anticipate what other people are going to do or say. This can give you a great advantage over your competitors, but it can also make you somewhat suspicious and prevent you from dealing with people in the most unassuming manner.

Also born on this date are: Kylie Minogue, singer; Gladys Knight, singer; Michael Oher, football player; Colbie Caillat, singer; John Fogerty, singer; Ian Fleming, author; Jim Thorpe, football player; Carey Mulligan, actress; Justin Kirk, actor; Phil Vassar, singer; Ekaterina Gordeeva, Olympic ice skater; Rudolph Giuliani, politician and attorney.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You're eager to get something finished, but an obstacle stands in the way that you may not be able to get around on your own.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Others may not be able to meet your expectations at this time. You'll have an opportunity to reflect on what you're doing and why.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You're likely to discover very soon that you've been barking up the wrong tree as of late. It may be time for you to call in a professional.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You may not be holding a good hand, but your bluffing skills are keen and you should be able to hold your own when the betting begins.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Others have assured you you're doing the best you can do, but you have your doubts. You learn something today that alters your point of view.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You may sense that something is out of place today. Do what you can to restore it, but take care that you don't rock the boat.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You may not be able to do what you had promised, but you can make up for it by helping someone exceed his or her own expectations.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- Your efforts are sure to have a key impact today. Keep doing what you are doing, and don't let the critics keep you from changing course.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Your understanding of the big picture helps others in their efforts to match you in some way. You'll retain the lead, however.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You're trying to force something into place, but your methods aren't really getting the job done. Try something less aggressive.

Your Birthday for May 27, 2019

Your Birthday | May 27th, 2019

Born today, you are an upstanding and respected individual, but that is not to be confused with "popular" or "nice." In fact, there are times when you may be roundly disliked by others because of your behavior, which can border on the abrupt, inappropriate or even rude. The truth, however, is that you never set out to upset anyone or treat people with anything but your own brand of care and kindness, but it's not a brand that others easily recognize. You can come across as rather cold and aloof, even when you are fully engaged with others and giving them all the care and concern you can muster. Perhaps it is the way you carry yourself that has other people.

You can be quite emotional when it comes to the things you care most about, and that includes a few hobbies you take very seriously. Though you are likely to have quite a lucrative job that affords you long-term success, you're far more interested in those few avocational activities that truly feed your soul.

Also born on this date are: Christopher Lee, actor; Louis Gossett Jr., actor; Cilla Black, actress; Todd Bridges, actor; Vincent Price, actor; Cynthia McFadden, journalist; Henry Kissinger, statesman; Wild Bill Hickock, Old West lawman; Paul Bettany, actor.
