Born today, you are something of a traditionalist, but that doesn't mean you'll always cling to the ways of the past. On the contrary, you are destined to evolve in dramatic fashion, combining the best of what has gone before with those aspects of what lies ahead that seem to suit your mind and spirit the best. In other words, though you can be somewhat old-fashioned in your thinking and behavior, you are also never afraid to charge ahead into the future -- and enjoy the best of both "then" and "now."
You can be quite emotional, and throughout much of your life, you'll have to work hard to keep your emotions from getting the best of you. Let them percolate slowly to the surface if you must, but never let them simply explode, unchecked, for that can lead to much hardship for you and others.
Also born on this date are: Malcolm X, civil rights leader; Andre the Giant, wrestler and actor; Grace Jones, singer; Pete Townshend, musician; Joey Ramone, singer; Peter Mayhew, actor; Nora Ephron, screenwriter and director; James Fox, actor.

FRIDAY, MAY 20
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You may be more interested in another's goals today than you are in your own, and you can certainly offer assistance that yields much progress.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You may fear that your best effort isn't going to be enough today, but you're selling yourself short. You have what it takes and can prove it!
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Circumstances may not support your primary intentions today, but you can still make progress if you're willing to make some adjustments.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Progress today will be made in increments, and you must be willing to take what you get -- especially toward midday when things take a strange turn.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Others may be watching you for signs of weakness or indecision today -- but you're not about to give them what they want. Stay the course!
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- It's important that you stay in touch with those who have taught you certain key lessons recently. There's more for you to learn, surely.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- How you feel is closely related to what someone near you is doing today -- even though you may not know them at all. Ask some questions!
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- Your generosity will be much appreciated by those who benefit from it today -- and others will be eager to be included in that circle soon.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You have more going for you right now than you might fully comprehend and, as a result, you're able to put more on the line than expected.
