Born today, you are precisely the kind of person others trust -- and in some instances you are the person they want to be! Indeed, you have so much going for you that it is almost impossible for another person to meet you and not recognize something that is worthy of praise. You know a great deal, but you are not just book-smart; you have been endowed with common sense and street smarts, which keep you in good stead. Even in the most unexpected situations, you seem to be able to hold your own because of an innate wisdom that serves you so well.
You're not one to rest on your laurels. Success early in life can lead to even greater success later on -- but that's entirely up to you! Keep the wheels turning and you will surely have your heart's desire as a result of hard work and dedication. You have a way of helping others succeed as well.
Also born on this date are: David Spade, comedian; Danny Glover, actor; Bobby Sherman, singer; Alex Trebek, game show host; Paul Schrader, screenwriter and director; Willem Dafoe, actor; Louise Fletcher, actress; Bob Dole, politician; Alexander Calder, sculptor; Oscar de la Renta, designer; Terence Stamp, actor; Alan Menken, composer; Albert Brooks, comedian.
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.
MONDAY, JULY 23
SCOPRIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- Your priorities are clear, but they may not be in sync with those promoted by a friend or co-worker. A conflict of interest may be unavoidable.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Some would say that "everything is relative," but you know that there are some absolutes that you alone must deal with today.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You're not ready for something that is being forced on you at this time. You are capable of learning quickly -- and you must do so!
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- A long-term involvement is likely to change today -- or, perhaps, come to an abrupt end. This is a good thing, but you may still feel blue.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- It's important that you get in touch with what is really going on beneath the surface today. You have been misinterpreting certain signals.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Think about where your money is coming from, and where it is going. You have some work to do before you can settle into a comfortable routine.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You may discover something that has you thinking about things in a whole new way today -- especially when it comes to integrating work and play.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You may spend much of the day playing catch-up -- but it's not because of anything you've done wrong. You have the time, so why not use it?
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- Give a thought to how your behavior has been affecting someone quite different from yourself. Now is a good time to offer soothing words.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You can give yourself what you want, but you may not know what that is, and that's a fine state of affairs! Avoid spinning your wheels.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You can find humor in the most unusual of situations today. Others may not share your lighthearted attitude, but no conflict should arise.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- Are you doubting yourself again? Listen to what someone else has to say and reflect on the reasons praise is being heaped on you right now.
