Born today, you are always on the lookout for the next "great" thing, whether it is merely an idea or something that has taken shape and is ready for you to profit from it in some way. And profit, for you, is the be-all and the end-all. You want to come out ahead, no matter what you choose to do, where or when you choose to do it or with whom you choose to team up in order to get it done.
Though you take things very seriously, you do have your whimsical side -- and others are likely to be quite surprised when you abandon your usually serious methods and manners in favor of some good old-fashioned fun. You work hard, yes, but you also know how to devote yourself to playtime as well -- when the time is right.
Also born on this date are: Dule Hill, actor; Bing Crosby, actor and singer; Frankie Valli, singer; Pete Seeger, singer and songwriter; Sugar Ray Robinson, boxer; Christina Hendricks, actress.

MONDAY, MAY 4
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You are ready to try something new today, understanding that it may be entirely out of character. Perhaps that's just what you want.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Why mess with perfection? Today, you'll realize that certain things are best left alone -- and you know precisely what they may be already.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- A look back at an episode reminds you that even a mistake can turn out well for you -- and those who choose to follow your lead.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Tension will almost certainly be unavoidable today, and though you are likely to stumble into it, you needn't allow it to control you.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22 -- You're not likely to understand, even now, the price you must pay for failing in a past relationship -- because it's not the one you think!
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Take a close look at what lies ahead of you today and you may choose to alter your course and head in a new direction. Safety first!
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- Your competitive spirit is likely to be on full display today as you challenge any and all potential rivals to a contest you know you can win.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You do not fully understand someone's motives, but you're more than willing to play along enthusiastically until you do.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You may have more to do today than you had originally thought, but once you complete the first few tasks, you'll enjoy smooth sailing.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You'll be presented with more than a few options today that do not jibe with what you think you want. The error may be in your perception.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You are more interested in what "feels" right today than in what others assert is "right" according to the rulebook. Play your game.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You are in no mood to apologize for anything you have recently done, and yet you may be compelled to do so merely as an example to others.
