Born today, you are likely to become embroiled in all manner of things from an early age, and you'll surely learn to distinguish that which is positive and productive from that which is negative and destructive -- but does that mean you'll make the right decision when it is presented to you? The fact that you are so driven may sometimes create confusion in your mind and compel you to go down a path that looks to be the right one at the time, but which turns out, before long, to be very wrong for you.
Even the clearest issues may, at times, become cloudy -- and that is because you are so determined to make things right whenever possible, and that's not always cut and dried. You must always remember to observe how your behavior and decisions affect others; that's how you'll determine what is the right path.
Also born on this date are: Kim Kardashian, entrepreneur; Carrie Fisher, actress; Benjamin Netanyahu, Israeli prime minister; Judge Judy Sheindlin, TV judge; Dizzy Gillespie, musician; Alfred Nobel, inventor; Samuel Taylor Coleridge, poet.

FRIDAY, OCTOBER 22
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You may not fully appreciate what someone has been doing for you as of late, but there's still time. Take a close look at what's happening.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You don't have to displace someone in order to put yourself in a better position today; try working with, rather than against, a rival.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- The suggestions you receive today may actually enable you to lighten your own load -- but take care you're not falling into a personal trap.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You cannot be everywhere at once, certainly, but you can send out feelers and take in information from a variety of sources throughout the day.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- A surprise may give you quite a shock today -- one far more significant than was intended. Let the perpetrator off the hook when you get a chance.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- It's not up to you to point out a potential offense if it's not something that offends you directly. You must let others speak for themselves.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- Not everyone is aware of what you've been through lately; there are a few people you should tell before embarking on a new collaboration.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- Despite a minor error made during your first major efforts of the day, you should be able to progress as planned -- if you admit the mistake!
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- Anyone who tells you that you needn't be clear at this time is selling you something you don't want. You must be simple and accurate!
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You may still be feeling the restraints that held you back some time ago -- but this is your own doing, and you can fix the problem yourself.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- A message received from an unknown source today is worthy of suspicion, and you should do all you can to learn its true pedigree.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- The difference between success and failure today lies in the short space between "yes" and "no" in which so much decision-making is done!
