Born today, you are a rather forceful and even aggressive individual for an Aquarius native, though that is more your "public persona," and you are known to be sensitive and even quite emotional in your private life. Balancing these two aspects of your personality -- especially the go-getter obsessed with success and the homebody content with a blanket and a good book -- will take a good deal of energy and self-reflection. You must always see yourself as you are, and not try to fool yourself into believing that you are only one thing or the other.
There is something of the showoff in your nature, and you will never shrink from an opportunity to put your talents on display. You can become rather cocky now and then, and when this happens, all you need is a little dose of reality to reset your confidence. Confidence is great; overconfidence is dangerous!
Also born on this date are: Bob Marley, reggae singer and musician; Babe Ruth, baseball player; Ronald Reagan, actor, California governor and president; Axl Rose, singer; Rick Astley, singer; Natalie Cole, singer; Kathy Najimy, actress.

TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 7
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You may find yourself waiting for a few last pieces of information today that you must have before wrapping up a certain key issue.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Someone's change of plans may not be strictly according to the rules, but it's something you can overlook given other elements at play.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Someone you know may be overcomplicating an issue at this time, and because it affects you directly, you'll surely want to say something.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You may require a little coaxing today before committing to something that isn't in your wheelhouse. Doing it will surely be good for you.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- The haves and the have-nots are likely to clash today over something that wouldn't otherwise have a major impact. You can solve this easily.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Just because you've backed a certain horse doesn't mean it's going to win the race today. Think about diversifying your support in some way.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- Your attempt to skirt a major issue isn't likely to work today -- for obvious reasons. You needn't examine your error; just move on.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You are keenly aware of what is going on around you today, and that will give you the advantage over those who think they have you fooled.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- It's time at long last to catch up with a certain someone you've been keeping at arm's length for a while. Reestablish contact.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You must follow certain protocols if you're to complete an assignment on schedule. Today's efforts do have a major impact.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- It's a good day to adopt a "better late than never" attitude. You still have time to complete a project; make getting it done a priority.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You run the risk of having someone lose faith in you today if you're unable to come through. Be sure to do what you said you'd do.
