Born today, you are a serious, thoughtful individual, and what you do and say is likely to attract a great deal of attention. You know how to make a point, and you know how to parlay one successful argument into another. There are times in which you are far too concerned with what other people think and not focused on your needs. You are likely to travel the world -- or at least your part of it -- sharing your thoughts and beliefs with others in the hopes that doing so will change their lives for the better.
When it comes to money, there are times in which you can take it or leave it -- but given the choice, of course, you will take it! Making money is not something that comes naturally to you, however; you are far more likely to prosper if you surround yourself with those who know better than you how money works and how to make it work for you.
Also born on this date are: Hal David, songwriter; Beverly Sills, soprano; Robert Ludlum, author; Raymond Carver, author; Ian McKellen, actor; Paul Weller, singer and songwriter; Octavia Spencer, actress.

SATURDAY, MAY 26
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Take care that in the act of giving someone what he or she wants, you are not inadvertently depriving yourself of something you need.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- It's good to think about what really drives you -- especially these days, when others may be wondering just that. You can be more transparent.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You may be feeling pressure from both sides of an argument to abandon your neutral stance and join one or the other before the day is out.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- The first steps in a new direction offer you more excitement than you had bargained for -- but don't worry, things calm down very soon.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You can prevent someone from doing damage to a project that is important to you, but you may not be able to protect him or her from self-damage.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- It may be discovered that you are affiliated with someone who is going about things in a most unconventional way. Criticism is sure to follow.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You may be holding back a bit at this time, but very soon someone you know well is likely to get you to invest yourself 100 percent.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- What you have to offer today may not be received in a positive vein by all those who are working with you -- or who will soon do so.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You can begin to repair a relationship with someone who has been on the outs for far too long. He or she can be a big help.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Certain things bear repeating today, if you are to ensure that those who claim to support you truly understand what you are trying to do.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You can welcome someone new into your inner circle today, and though the meeting may be guarded at first, you can surely ease tensions soon.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You may not know what others are doing -- either for or against you. Much is being kept secret right now, and you must get the facts.
