Scorpio: Face your competition head on
CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Pete Yorn, 35; Maureen McGovern, 60; Peggy Fleming, 61; Bobbie Gentry, 65.
Happy Birthday: You have some wonderful ideas but, if all you do is talk about them, you will never get things off the ground. You have to be willing to do the work yourself. If you can stay on track and follow through with your plans the rewards will be much better than even you imagined. This is a year for progressive action, advancement and feeling proud.
ARIES (March 21-April 19): Refuse to let a personal problem dictate what you can accomplish. You may have to give a little more time to home, money and relationships but, with the right attitude, you should be able to take care of business.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You don’t have to go it alone today. Partner up with someone who can complement your attributes and you will have a winning combination. Put your energy into developing your own ideas and projects.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): You only have to make a couple of adjustments to come out on top. Your good fortune coupled with the support you are given will lead to a winning combination. Don’t let someone’s jealousy trip you up or cause you to fall short.
CANCER (June 21-July 22): If you don’t get what’s going on, ask questions. You can’t possibly fix what’s wrong if you don’t understand the situation. Emotional problems brought on by an older relative or someone wanting to meddle in your affairs must be stifled.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): You’ll take the people who know you best off guard with your serious, no-nonsense attitude. Just because you are willing to go the distance and do your best doesn’t mean you should let others take advantage of your industrious attitude.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Attentive and helpful gestures will win you benefits. Someone you meet will offer something worth checking into. Develop a partnership that allows you to accomplish far more than you can by yourself.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Determination and practicality will be what counts. You owe it to yourself to take care of your own business. Think big and a moneymaking opportunity will develop. A change will give you the boost you need.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Size down and be less indulgent if you want to get ahead. You have to budget your time and money in order to get your ideas and plans moving in a positive direction. Face your competition head on and don’t back down.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Communicate, ask questions and go to the source in order to find out all you need to know to get your plans underway. If you jump from one thing to another, you will fall short of your expectations.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Your focus should be on professional and financial gains. Put an end to any messy, personal issues. Productivity is what counts and anyone trying to stop you can expect a negative response.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You’ll be fortunate, no matter what you do and good things will come from an unexpected source. A friend will be there to back you if you need help and encourage you to follow through with your plans.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): A financial proposal will be exactly what you need to pursue something you’ve always wanted to do. An encounter with someone who can complement your plans and your personal life will develop through unusual circumstances.
Birthday Baby: You are engaging and charming and know exactly how to get your way. You are a dreamer and a good provider. You have a good influence on the people you befriend and the ones you love.
