Born today, you are a serious and dedicated individual -- or at least you want to be. The fact is that you may have trouble deciding just where you wish to channel your considerable talents and energies; you certainly wish to accomplish much, and to be recognized for those accomplishments, but the specifics of who you will be and what you will do may elude you for quite some time -- even, perhaps, well into adulthood.
You are not without a sense of humor, but it is of a kind that is not always appreciated by those around you; some call it "gallows humor," and, indeed, you can descend into some very dark places and still laugh. You solve problems in a creative manner; your methods are not always traditional or even acceptable to others -- at first.
Also born on this date are: Nostradamus, poet and prophet; Patty Duke, actress; Spike Jones, bandleader; Charlie Rich, singer and songwriter; Shirley Jackson, author; Tycho Brahe, pioneer astronomer; James H. Doolittle, aviator and war hero.
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.
WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 15
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- All you can do is what you've promised, as anything more will simply cost you too much at this time. Be true to your word, by all means.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You'll do something that is all but trivial to you today, but to someone else, it makes all the difference. You can do more when the time comes.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Are you prepared to meet the challenge that is coming your way? If it doesn't arrive today or tomorrow, you will have dodged a bullet, surely!
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- It will cost you little to indulge in one or two flights of fancy today -- but take care that you don't lose touch with reality altogether.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You'll want to take your complaints to those who can address them and do something about them, and this may not be able to happen today.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You will have to bend to someone's will today, and regardless of the reason, your manner will say a lot about how genuine you are.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You will want to take a look back at certain events in order to come to a better understanding of why you are in your current position.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- What you used to do perfectly well may require some improvement today, as the expectations of those around you are greater than before.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- Someone else has knowledge that you would like to have, but it may be inappropriate for you to ask for it at this time.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- It's not enough to know the rules, you must be willing and able to live by them -- even when the going gets tough, as it may today.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You risk getting somewhat out of control today if you refuse to listen to the guidance of someone who has been in your position.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You may betray your own feelings today simply by looking at someone the wrong way -- and the ramifications of this may be considerable.
