Born today, you know what you want, but you don't always know how to get it, and that's likely to be the big mystery of your life and your No. 1 motivator in almost all things. And what is it that you pursue day in and day out? Well, contentment of course -- but your brand is unique and involves many seeming contrasts: activity and rest; popularity and solitude; and above all, a place in the world that is perhaps nearly impossible to find -- the kind that gives you what you want in an all-accepting fashion.
You know you are not perfect, and yet you strive for perfection in everything -- and this can make many things far more difficult for you than they should be. Too often you find yourself doing something someone else's way because you think it is the "right" way -- when, in fact, your own way can be just as fruitful. The lesson? Be yourself!
Also born on this date are: Marilyn Monroe, actress; Morgan Freeman, actor; Heidi Klum, model and TV host; Andy Griffith, actor; Pat Boone, singer and actor; Alanis Morissette, singer; Frank Morgan, actor; Brigham Young, religious leader.

FRIDAY, JUNE 2
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You may have to pick up the pieces left strewn about by someone today -- but there's nothing you could possibly have done to avoid it.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Take a close look at what you've recently accomplished, and you'll realize that you're on the right path after all -- at least for the time being.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- While others are watching today, you can certainly prove much, but when you are alone once more, you'll want to relax and dream of other things.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You've been making plans that seem to be coming together at last, but take care that you're not overlooking something at this juncture today.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You are eager for assistance, but you cannot slow down or stop if it doesn't materialize. Keep going, and adjust as necessary when help is at hand.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Take a close look at what someone is doing very near you today. There is much to be learned from one whose ambitions are similar to your own.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You needn't do what someone else is doing simply because it seems the easy choice. The more difficult option offers you more today.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You may be tempted to treat yourself to something that you've recently learned is not very good for you. Do you want to "cheat" in this way?
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- Following the rules may not seem like the most pleasant option today, but you'll certainly gain more than you might expect.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Take care that you haven't gone to great pains for someone who is not likely to appreciate the effort. What dynamic is playing out here?
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- It's a good day to speak out in support of a cause you've long believed in, but take care you don't stick your neck out too far at this time.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- A warning comes your way today, but you are tempted to ignore it, given your position. Are you really seeing what lies before you?
