Born today, you are one of the most solid, stable, predictable and upstanding individuals born under your sign -- and yet, there are times in which you wish you were anything but! The truth is that you sometimes think that you are bland, dull, even outright boring -- but that's hardly the case! Beneath your calm, easygoing exterior are currents of passion and creativity that are remarkable and rare, but unlike others who share those traits with you, you are not the kind to let those currents dictate where you will go or when.
You may, at times, surprise those around you by speaking your mind in such a way that your passions and opinions are given free rein. There are those who will accept this occasional candor and even come to rely on it; there are others who may not appreciate it because they are in some way threatened by it.
Also born on this date are: Ruth Gordon, actress; Grace Slick, musician and singer; Henry Winkler, actor, director, producer; Harry Hamlin, actor; Ezra Pound, poet; John Adams, U.S. president and patriot.

THURSDAY, OCTOBER 31
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You have what it takes to solve a tricky problem for those around you today. All it requires is the ability to juggle several key issues.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You must stick to the game plan today if you want to come out ahead of your closest competitors. You know what's really at stake.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You may have to color outside the lines today in order to attract the kind of attention that, in time, can give you what you really want.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You may have to go back and study something that you thought was a "dead" issue. Today, many influences from the past are felt once more.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You must be willing to listen closely to yourself all day long and to pass judgment on what you say in an honest, straightforward manner.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You are in no mood to go along with the crowd today -- so why even consider doing so? You can do your own thing, surely -- and profit from it.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You've been trying to figure out a tricky sort of puzzle that only now is beginning to reveal itself to you. Don't give up!
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- The challenges you imagine today are likely to be far more serious than those you actually encounter. Don't keep frightening yourself!
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You'll want to tend to domestic affairs today -- but a career issue is likely to take priority for a time. It affects what goes on at home.
