Born today, you are a clever, insightful and visionary individual, willing to do that which will gain you the greatest possible advantage while doing others the least amount of harm. You are usually able to size up a situation quickly and determine if not the best possible action to take then certainly one of many good options. You are never one to seek attention outside of your given profession; the fact is that you cherish your privacy, and prefer to relax in relative anonymity. You have a flair for the dramatic, but it's not something you let control you.
There are those who are destined to fall in love with you again and again, but you aren't likely to requite their love. You are attracted, rather, to those who are not attracted to you -- those whose affection you have to earn. Love, for you, is work -- but work that you love to do, certainly!
Also born on this date are: Queen Elizabeth II of England; Tony Romo, football player; James McAvoy, actor; Iggy Pop, singer; Tony Danza, actor; Charlotte Bronte, author; Andie MacDowell, actress; Anthony Quinn, actor; John Muir, naturalist; Charles Grodin, actor; Robin Meade, news anchor; Patti LuPone, singer and actress; Toby Stephens, actor.

SUNDAY, APRIL 22
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You understand the value of a certain relationship far more than anyone else, and you're not willing to sever it in the name of convenience.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You may wish you were somewhere else, but the fact is that you are exactly where you belong, and can do much good if you concentrate!
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Practice may not make perfect, but you'll surely be able to put in a better performance because your preparations were complete.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You may want to limit your exposure at this time, but there are still things that others will want to know about you -- like it or not!
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You may find yourself bouncing between two very high-pressure influences today. This will result in difficulty when it comes to making decisions.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You'll have to do what others tell you to do throughout much of the day. At some point, however, you'll be free to do what you want to do.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You can show others the "proper" way to get a certain thing done -- but that doesn't mean you'll do it that way when the pressure mounts.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You are feeling adventurous, and may choose to go solo through territory that is riskier than it appears to be.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- It'll be your turn soon, and you must be ready. Don't let anyone tell you that this doesn't count: It's what it's all about!
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You'll find yourself rising to an occasion in fine form, doing something in a way that surprises even you. This is only the beginning.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You are relying on friends for more than companionship and moral support. You need them right now in ways that you hadn't anticipated.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You're eager to see if your recent efforts will begin to pay off soon -- but you may not have to wait any longer. Today may be the day.
