CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Emily Browning, 37; C. Thomas Howell, 59; Tom Waits, 76; Ellen Burstyn, 93.

Happy Birthday: You’ll achieve the most this year if you work quietly toward your long-term goals. Allowing too many into your sphere will cost you time, energy and money. Refuse to let your generosity and kindness stand in your way when this is your time to shine. Be grateful for who you are, what you have and what will be, but don’t let anyone steal your thunder. Your numbers are 4, 15, 23, 28, 31, 37, 49.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Say no to temptation and yes to learning, personal growth and romance. Do your research and get the lowdown before you pursue something new. Sticking to guidelines, rules and regulations is necessary if you want to avoid intervention. You are overdue for a change, but the choices presented to you will be misleading. Do your due diligence. 2 stars

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Go through the proper channels before you make a decision that may put you in a vulnerable position. Trust your instincts, not someone trying to take advantage of you. Budget wisely and only pay for what’s necessary. When doubt arises, get a second opinion. Trust your instincts over an outsider’s input. Poor diagnosis and misinformation are apparent. 4 stars

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Be open to suggestions, but rely on yourself and your intuition to guide you in a direction that’s best for you. Relationships will be exciting but not necessarily honest or as they appear. Ask questions, be on guard and refuse to pay for others’ mistakes or sob stories. Choose common sense over someone’s ego-boosting rhetoric. 3 stars

CANCER (June 21-July 22): You are in a better position than you realize. Take a moment to review the facts and reevaluate your past, present and future. Use your experience and skills, and execute a personal assessment, resume or response that will allow you to catapult your talents in a direction you find exhilarating. Advancement awaits you. 3 stars

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Show everyone what you can do. Socialize, network and address situations that require your attention. You stand to prosper if you take hold of situations and turn them into a worthwhile endeavor. Personal gain can teach you something valuable, but be cautious not to fall into a trap because someone strokes your ego. Personal growth, love and self-improvement are favored. 3 stars

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Don’t compromise your reputation or position. Think before you act, and protect those you love from those who are out to take advantage of you. A change may be necessary if you discover you have misinterpreted what someone is offering you. Protect your surroundings or remove yourself from situations that make you feel vulnerable. 3 stars

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): What you hear will not be factual. Verify information before committing to an action. Focus inward and put your time, effort and energy into self-improvement. Look for a change of environment that will make you feel safe. Walk away from indulgent situations and people and toward stability and building greater security. Put your needs first. 2 stars

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Explore the possibilities, learn from an expert and take advantage of what you discover by using it to advance your current position, lifestyle or long-term plans. Change is within reach; all you must do is ignite the fuse and make things happen. It’s time to present what you can offer. Nothing ventured, nothing gained. 5 stars

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Home improvements, investing in yourself and your livelihood, and setting yourself up for success are on the rise. Embrace the future with a passionate attitude, intelligence and a practical plan that is gratifying and encourages you to fulfill your heart’s desires. Take control and do what’s best for you. 3 stars

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): When opportunity knocks, open the door. Look for new ways to utilize your skills and apply your experience and knowledge to professions that are experiencing growth. Transitioning from one venue to another will be your refuge, and once you realize how to diversify your skills to suit each job, nothing will stand in your way. 3 stars

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Put your energy into personal improvement, updating your resume and connecting with people who can help you advance. Upgrade your look to encourage better responses. How you present yourself and your attributes will determine how far you get. Change takes work, but the returns will be worthwhile. Mix business with pleasure, and you will make gains personally and professionally. 3 stars

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Ask questions, and use your intellect and intuition to guide you in a positive direction. Refuse to let anyone push you into making a premature decision.
