Born today, you see the world and the people in it from a unique perspective, and this has led you to the inescapable conclusion that the people you encounter on a daily basis are, to some degree at least, quite confusing. You find it quite amusing most of the time, and you are able to laugh at even the most serious of human transgressions. Are you able to laugh at your own, however? The question stands because while you can shrug off almost everything that happens in the world, you take yourself very seriously.
You are something of a daredevil and do things others will not simply because they won't. Is this good for you? So long as it doesn't hurt you -- physically, that is -- it's not likely to cause you any harm, for you are emotionally quite strong and psychologically balanced. That which you cannot do the first time you are almost certain to try a second time, or a third or even more.
Also born on this date are: Rainn Wilson, actor; Bill Maher, commentator, comedian, TV host; Paul Stanley, rocker; David Lynch, director; Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin, astronaut; Patricia Neal, actress; Federico Fellini, filmmaker.
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.
SATURDAY, JANUARY 21
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- The day opens on a note of uncertainty, but an email or phone call gets your attention and has you working toward a positive outcome.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Those working with you know they can count on you, but it's those who are not that may take some persuading. Actions speak louder than words.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You are likely to get defensive if asked to explain yourself, but take a moment to assess possible gains. It may well be worth it.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Don't be fooled today by something that seems trivial but which under the surface offers up more than one important opportunity.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You may find yourself running on empty before you know it if you don't take the time to replenish your stores of energy -- and inspiration, too!
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You'll see something develop today that you had foreseen quite some time ago -- and now you're in a position to do something about it.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- A warning comes to you through unfamiliar channels today. Pay just as much attention to what is not said as to what is, and prevail.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- A deeper look into someone's affairs gives you the answer you're looking for -- but how do you explain why you were being nosy?
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- Someone close to you is likely to tell you something no one else will. What you do with the information surprises those who know you best.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- There's no question that you know where you're going and why. What is in doubt today is how you can get there in the time allowed.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- The work you've been doing may not have had the desired effect yet, but today you'll encounter people who make a much better audience.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- Taking a chance without knowing what the rewards may be is not worth it today. Get as much information as possible in order to get what you deserve.
