Born today, you are the kind of person who others look up to, and while this can sometimes be a heavy responsibility it is something you willingly accept. Indeed, you consider that there is nothing more worthwhile to be than a role model. You have many talents, and quite diverse interests; you are compelled to seek information about all manner of topics, for being informed is a matter of responsibility rather than burden. You believe that human beings are duty-bound to know as much about the world in which they live as possible.
You may go through several short periods marked by intense insecurity, but opportunity is sure to end each of them as you discover that there is always another door to go through when you are feeling in any way out of place. You know that if you don’t like where you are, you can always pack up and go somewhere else!
Also born on this date are: Julian Schnabel, painter; Mahalia Jackson, singer; Jaclyn Smith, actress and model; Cary Elwes, actor; Pat Sajak, TV game show host; Bob Hoskins, actor; Jackie Coogan, actor.

SATURDAY, OCTOBER 27
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Speed can be your enemy today; be sure to keep things under control as you progress -- whether on a journey, doing a job or playing a game.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You are far more able to accomplish what needs to be done today than anyone else under consideration for the job. Step forward -- now!
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Though you’re not doing a certain thing for the accolades, they are sure to come once you accomplish what it is clear no one else could.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You’re likely to come up against someone who isn’t all he or she claims to be. This charlatan is about to have a comeuppance, thanks to you!
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You’re getting a little tired of the same old thing, day after day. Why not break the pattern by doing what no one would expect you to do?
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Now is the time for you to make that suggestion that you’ve been keeping to yourself. Many will recognize, as you do, that it’s the only way.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- The difference between first and last will be almost immeasurable today -- but that doesn’t mean you’ll be satisfied with the latter!
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You may not complete all tasks assigned to you today, despite your best efforts. Those in charge know that you’ve done all you can.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- The watchword today is “simplify.” The more you can trim things down and economize, the better. Don’t be tempted by more!
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Don’t feel sheepish about asking for an accommodation today. He or she who is in control is on your side and certainly wants to help.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You’ll be keenly interested in what someone else is doing today -- and, in particular, the possible reasons for it.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You are likely to discover, quite by surprise, that you and a supposed rival have much more in common than either of you had thought.
