Born today, you have a good deal of creativity that, when young, you may not know quite how to direct or control effectively -- but this can result in a great deal of good, as it means you're not likely to follow in anyone's footsteps but to chart a course that is uniquely your own -- and that is the way to go for any serious artist! Your motives are not always understood, and your work may not always be appreciated by your intended audience.
Though you are quite serious in your work, you know how to cut loose -- and the harder you work during daylight hours, the harder you will play when night falls. You are something of a night owl, but you must take care that the demands of the day and the pleasures of the night do not take too much of a toll on you!
Also born on this date are: Cam Newton, football player; Salvador Dali, artist; Natasha Richardson, actress; Martha Quinn, TV personality; Phil Silvers, actor and comedian; Frances Fisher, actress; Laetitia Casta, model.

WEDNESDAY, MAY 12
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- That which is just now appearing on the horizon will demand more of your time and attention very soon; you must begin to clear your schedule.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You receive instructions today that actually make things more confusing than they have to be. Set them aside and do things your own way.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Once you share your thoughts with another, you can get things moving forward right away. Your efforts combine with another's very effectively today.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Putting another's needs before your own is nothing new for you, but today it may mean having to sacrifice something that is dear to you.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You may not fully understand the technical "ins and outs" of a certain process today, but it's one you'll want to embrace as you move forward.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You can show others how it's done today and solidify your reputation as one to be counted on in times of stress. This should be a good day!
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You receive signs that are not immediately clear to you -- but a friend's input fills in the blanks. You're able to do much from afar, perhaps.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You will have to pay attention to everything that goes on around you today, and a 360-degree awareness will surely serve you well!
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- Shop around today and you'll surely find what you're looking for at the right price. It's all depends on having a genuine motive.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You may be tempted to do more than you've been asked to do, but take care that you don't bite off more than you can chew! Be realistic.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You may be the cause of something that others cannot deal with very well in the moment. You must be willing to clean up the mess.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You may have the opportunity today to explain yourself and your recent actions, but that may not be the best course of action.
