Born today, you see yourself through a unique lens that highlights the positive and improves or blots out the negative -- and though this isn't necessarily a realistic self-image, it is certainly the one that works best for you on a daily basis. You don't like to think of yourself as "ordinary" or "normal." You want to be quite different -- and you will see yourself as such simply because you choose to do so.
The fact that you tend to live in a kind of "fantasy world" needn't be a negative trait, however; on the contrary, it can lead you to great accomplishment, and you are likely to climb to the pinnacle of success by living in a way that makes your fantasy as much a reality as possible. Who you are, in fact, may mean much less than who you think you are.
Also born on this date are: Simon Helberg, actor; McKayla Maroney, Olympic gymnast; Tre Cool, drummer; Dame Judi Dench, actress; Kirk Douglas, actor; Donny Osmond, entertainer; Redd Foxx, comedian; Margaret Hamilton, actress.

FRIDAY, DECEMBER 10
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You may require less encouragement today than most, but that doesn't mean you want to be left alone. You require some moral support!
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Just when you think there's no going back, you'll recognize a fleeting opportunity to revisit a past success. This won't last long, however!
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You're keenly interested in protecting yourself and others today, but before you do that, you may have to take at least one calculated risk.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You may want to say "no" to an unusual offer today, but your curiosity is likely to get the better of you and prompt you to say "yes." Get ready!
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You are not ready for what is coming, but you are confident that help is also on the way. The future depends on which arrives on your doorstep first.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Are you ready to do what you have been waiting to do? Today's opportunity may be the only chance you'll have for a while.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You can rid yourself of a major irritant today -- but something else is likely to come along to fill the void. It's really nothing by comparison!
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- Your attempts to stay out of trouble are likely to get you into hot water today -- unless you can stop following in another's footsteps.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You may find yourself stopping and starting today many times, alternating between enthusiasm and ennui -- until you head in a new direction.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You may require the kind of assistance that is not readily available at this time. Do your best to keep up your momentum as you await help.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You can prove that you are more fearless than a loved one today by doing that which few others in your family have been willing to try.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- Once you step out of your comfort zone today, there's no going back until you've completed a full cycle of experimentation. Are you ready?
