Born today, you tend to break the mold when it comes to Leo natives, for you are not overtly or openly emotional about whatever happens to you in your daily life. Rather, you seem to be far more laid back about each day's events -- whether it be something that happens to you or something you do. You never appear to be rattled, shaken or upset by anything. The question is: Is this the real you? Well, yes and no! Yes, appearances don't lie in your case; you do tend to be relaxed and unflappable most of the time. But no, this doesn't mean you don't feel! In fact, you feel very strongly about certain matters -- but you don't reveal this side of yourself to just anyone.
Your ability to shape your outer self to serve your situation is perhaps your greatest strength. It is a skill that will keep you and your heart safe from all manner of threats, particularly in your personal life. You seem to be impenetrable, and the seeming makes it so, as far as most other people are concerned.
Also born on this date are: Antonio Banderas, actor; Suzanne Collins, author; Angie Harmon, actress; Brenton Twaites, actor; Herbert Hoover, U.S. president; Eddie Fisher, singer; Jack Haley, actor; Rosanna Arquette, actress; Lucas Till, actor; Norma Shearer, actress; Sam Warner, producer; Rhonda Fleming, actress.
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.
THURSDAY, AUGUST 11
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You may find yourself longing for the good old days, but in fact, today may be fondly remembered for some time to come.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- The information you glean from a private source will take you only so far. You must be willing to mount your own careful investigation.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- It's your move. Don't be fooled by any attempted deception on your opponent's part; play out your strategy with confidence.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You'll enjoy the company of someone who does not usually choose to tag along. His or her observations will shape your experience dramatically.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You have the feeling that a certain someone is watching you -- and indeed, he or she is paying attention to every little thing you do and say.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Someone's technique may not please you, but when the job is done, you may have to admit that the results are far more than you expected.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- What you did weeks or months ago may yet be on your mind, but you needn't worry that it will come back to haunt you.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- Your mad dash to the finish line is likely to result in disappointment. A much calmer approach will serve you better.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You're likely to feel more comfortable with someone by your side, but it can't be just anyone. Choose your companion carefully.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Others may wonder when a project is going to be completed, but you know that there is more work to be done. Keep your eyes on the prize.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You must focus squarely on the task at hand and not let your eyes wander -- for if they do, you are sure to be sidetracked indefinitely.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You don't want to be left picking up the pieces. Take a cautious approach, and don't let anyone hurry you through any dangerous patches.
