Born today, you are both idealistic and realistic, and you dream of doing great things while acknowledging that not everything you dream of will happen in your life simply because not everyone gets everything they wish for. It is this understanding that will serve you so well again and again as you work to make those dreams come true that can come true. Indeed, you focus almost exclusively on those things that CAN happen.
You can be blustery, even bellicose at times, and you're not the kind to hide your feelings about the things that are most important to you. Anyone who gets involved with you personally must be ready to deal with the sudden storms that characterize your emotional life -- but those closest to you know how to calm you when you most need it.
Also born on this date are: Pink, singer; Martin Freeman, actor; Jonathan Taylor Thomas, actor; Patsy Cline, singer; Brooke Burke, actress and TV personality; David Arquette, actor; Sid Caesar, actor and comedian; Heather Thomas, actress.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Success depends today upon your willingness to make an early start -- and also your ability to get up to speed in what may be record time.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You have much farther to go today than you had anticipated, but after you get a little rest, you'll be able to finish your journey in time.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You'll have to navigate some unexpected darkness today, even as you benefit from periods of positivity and light. What a ride it may be.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You know precisely where you've drawn the line, and you're not about to cross it -- nor should anyone else, for fear of swift reprisals.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You've heard the stories and laughed at the jokes, but today you may come face to face with something that you thought was just an urban legend.
