Born today, you have such a developed view of humanity and the world around you that it will surely inform nearly every significant thing you do in life. The catch, of course, is that your personal view may not be necessarily positive; rather, it may be so bleak that your behavior could become (or be considered) distinctly antisocial, antihuman and perhaps even antilife. There is no way to tell, when you are young, which view of the world you will harbor, but as you mature and let that view dictate your development, it will become clear -- at least to those around you. Fortunately, you do not have to be ruled entirely by this outlook; if you work hard, you can change it.
If positive, your world-view will inspire you to do great things that affect those around you in ways that foster growth, development and happiness. If negative, you are likely to distrust almost everyone and do things in a kind of solitude that can make the bad even worse, and keep the good at bay.
Also born on this date are: Tom Hanks, actor; O.J. Simpson, football player and actor; Courtney Love, singer and actress; Fred Savage, actor; Jimmy Smits, actor; John Tesh, media personality and musician; Kelly McGillis, actress; Chris Cooper, actor; Richard Roundtree, actor; Donald Rumsfeld, politician.
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.
FRIDAY, JULY 10
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You may not be feeling quite like yourself, but you have much to accomplish that requires you to carry on regardless.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You're onto something that can bring you both recognition and profit, provided you don't let your own insecurity stand in the way.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Focus on trends, and you'll see where the best opportunities lie. A negative can become a positive before the day is out.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- If it's perfection you're after, you should try something else. If it's personal growth you're after, you're on the right track.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- The influence you exert over others will be felt far from home, even among those who have little to do with your affairs.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- There's no such thing as a bad decision -- or is there? Certain circumstances may make it difficult to see things clearly.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- Your schedule is as full as it can possibly be -- or so you may think, until an unexpected opportunity encourages you to take on even more.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You may not fully understand what is required of you, but you are perfectly willing to follow someone down a new road.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- Hidden information is uncovered at last. You'll be in a new position that allows you to call the shots with greater freedom.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You may not be as connected as usual to what is going on, but your instincts will kick in just in time, late in the day.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- A question of motive is likely to arise before the day is out. What you learn about yourself and another may open your eyes.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You must look beneath the surface if you want to fully understand a situation -- and the people who are pulling the strings.
