Born today, you are one of the most straightforward and down-to-earth individuals born under your sign. Indeed, you know of no other way than to tell it like it is; you are never one to beat around the bush, and to deceive in any way is something that would never cross your mind. You are so open and transparent that others are naturally drawn to you and eager to get to know you, for they often feel, even upon a first meeting, that they know you better than most. You have no patience for those who believe that it is not always best to tell the truth.
You can be quite serious when the mood strikes you, but your "default" attitude is rather lighthearted; you are able to look at the world around you and smile. You believe that every day is a gift of sorts, and you're not about to waste it on being sullen or negative, even when it would be completely justified.
Also born on this date are: Kate Middleton, Duchess of Cambridge; Jimmy Page, rock guitarist; Richard Nixon, U.S. president; Dave Matthews, singer and songwriter; Bob Denver, actor; Crystal Gayle, singer; Joan Baez, singer and songwriter; Imelda Staunton, actress; Bart Starr, football player; Susannah York, actress.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You may find yourself wandering here and there today, not certain what you should be doing. Take this opportunity to reflect and assess.
