Born today, you like to be aware of everything that is going on around you, because you believe wholeheartedly that you cannot live a full life, or contribute to the world around you in any meaningful way, if you are unaware of the goings-on of the world in which you live -- and not just some of them, but all of them, if at all possible. This would render you intolerably nosey, and result in your being labeled "intrusive" or worse, if it weren't for the fact that you are bound and determined to give back to the world.
The one clear difficulty you will almost certainly experience is that you will be under the microscope at all times, and be the subject of both admiration and derision as you receive both praise and criticism in equal measure. Fortunately, however, you have a thick skin, and people's judgments affect you very little.
Also born on this date are: Jeff Foxworthy, comedian; Idris Elba, actor; Macy Gray, singer; Rosie Perez, actress; Elizabeth Vargas, journalist; Swoosie Kurtz, actress; Jane Curtin, actress; Jo Anne Worley, actress.

WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 7
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You needn't go through official channels to increase your knowledge of certain subjects. Instead, go to a source you know personally.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You'll recognize a few possibilities today that you haven't seen before. Some may require you to face certain fears. Are you ready for that?
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Overreactions on your part are likely to cause trouble that lasts a while, so you must be sure to think about how to respond to certain events.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You are easing yourself out of a difficult phase at this time, but it still may be too soon for you to try what a friend has suggested.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You must be ready to act fast when certain things happen in your vicinity today, as reaction time will be much shorter than you might expect.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You must not believe everything you hear today, or even everything you read. Your best bet is to collect evidence independently.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- The social scene may seem prohibitive to you for some reason that others aren't likely to understand, but it offers certain clear gains.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You'll find that the beginnings and endings of things overlap today in ways that can increase your earning power. See where this goes.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You receive a promise today that you cannot believe will be kept, but get ready for a surprise. You'll be ready to swing into action soon.
