Born today, you are never one to say "never," and you will go ahead with all manner of plans, regardless of the odds against you, in order to reshape the world, or your small corner of it, to suit your needs and desires. You rarely give others much thought when you are plotting your course; your concern is for yourself above all and those under your immediate care. If others object to what you are doing, so be it.
You are something of a visionary, and you also know how to turn your imaginings into solid reality -- an ability that sets you apart from others who dream to no measurable effect whatsoever. This is not altogether foolproof, however, and there are times when you must improvise or simply change direction and pursue other goals.
Also born on this date are: Martina McBride, singer; Jason Belmonte, professional bowler; Wil Wheaton, actor; Tim Gunn, TV personality; Clara Bow, actress; Peter Jennings, newsman.
