Born today, you are one of those unsuspected individuals who, at just the right moment, again and again, emerges from the shadows and takes your place in the sun -- grabbing all the accolades and rewards that are available to you at any given time. You don't have to be front and center at all times; in fact, you often do your best work in the background, waiting for just the right moment to take the world by storm -- and this is something you are likely to do more than once in your lifetime.
Sometimes you behave out of character and score a great many victories as a result -- but this is not always something conscious. Indeed, you have a way of slipping into character and out again so easily that others have a hard time keeping up with you -- and all you are really doing is letting your natural rhythms direct you.
Also born on this date are: Tyra Banks, model; Marisa Tomei, actress; Lila McCann, singer; Jay-Z, rapper; Wassily Kandinsky, painter; Jeff Bridges, actor; Gary Rossington, guitarist.
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.
SUNDAY, DECEMBER 5
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You can put a harsh lesson recently learned to very good use today -- provided you keep your emotions out of the equation. Do you want to excel?
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You have the tools you need to do what has to be done, but you may not yet know how to wield them as efficiently as may be necessary at this time.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Even though you are nominally in charge today, you'll have occasion to learn a thing or two -- and you'll be grateful for the lesson, too!
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Everyone with whom you come in contact today is going to have a unique set of problems to address, and you can prove quite helpful to all.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- It's not enough for you today to learn only one way of doing something; you must be willing to put in some overtime to learn two or three!
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Someone may be challenging you at this time without even knowing it, but you may only make things more difficult by speaking about it today.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- It's best to keep certain things under wraps today, at least until you've hit your stride and render yourself immune to criticism.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- After what may have been weeks of planning, you should be able to get things in motion once and for all. A partner proves indispensable.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You'll be impressed with how others rise to the occasion today and turn in top-notch performances. You can do the same; stretch yourself!
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You may find yourself in a position of authority over those you consider to be your equals. This can work out well for all concerned.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- Now is no time to play favorites; you must be wholly objective in your assessment of what goes on both in the home and at the workplace.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You may be asked for a special favor today by someone who has been looking to you for guidance recently. It's time to engage directly.
