CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Spencer Treat Clark, 37; Erin Chambers, 45; Nia Vardalos, 62; Kevin Sorbo, 66.

Happy Birthday: Mixed emotions will lead you astray. Sum up how you feel and apply practical solutions to anything holding you back or confusing you. You may not welcome change, but if it will stabilize your health, wealth or emotional well-being, it’s worthwhile. Put your energy where it counts, and everything else will fall into place. Laughter and love are your path to happiness. Your numbers are 2, 14, 26, 33, 39, 42, 46.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Think before you act. Emotional situations will escalate quickly, turning a molehill into a mountain before you can change your tune if you aren’t careful. Broaden your awareness, question information and verify facts, which will open doors to truth, honesty and good decisions. 2 stars

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Do what you can to bring about positive change. Embrace what makes you feel good about yourself and what you can do to help others. Let empathy and compassion lead the way, and the response and help you receive will lead to achieving your goal. 4 stars

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Optimism is a beautiful characteristic to bolster. However, it requires patience, facts and the ability to initiate what you want to pursue. All talk and no action will leave you standing still. It’s up to you to open the door to the possibilities within reach. 3 stars

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Pick up the pace and set your sights on what matters to you. How you approach your objective will significantly affect the outcome and your reputation. Trust your instincts and follow through with your plans, regardless of who decides to help and who doesn’t. 3 stars

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Size up situations and make decisions. Taking too long to ponder things you cannot change or don’t want to be a part of will waste valuable time that you should spend pursuing positive ventures. Be the one to find solutions and to make a difference. 4 stars

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Be open, learn all you can and make choices conducive to lifestyle improvements and achieving a stable and secure position at work and home. Use your imagination, compromise and avoid letting excess seep into your plans. Participate in debates that encourage truth and exciting connections. 2 stars

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Take a deep breath and put ego and emotions aside. It’s time to do what’s best for you and to let go of what’s dragging you down. An aggressive move or lifestyle change may daunt you, but it will inevitably kickstart your efforts to forge ahead. 5 stars

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Pamper yourself, rejuvenate and participate in something that sparks your imagination and offers a unique perspective and awareness of what’s possible. Time is on your side; evaluate prospects, and you’ll make better choices. Networking and social events will offer insight into what you want to pursue. 3 stars

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Stay focused on what’s at stake and how to get things done on time and to your satisfaction. Refuse to let anyone interfere or lead you astray. A deal someone hypes will fall short of your expectations. Fend for yourself and pat yourself on the back. 3 stars

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Dream on and turn your hopes and wishes into a reality. Please don’t settle for less than what you want or give in to someone only looking out for themselves. Make domestic changes that will help you finish what you start and encourage you to believe in yourself. 3 stars

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Opportunity begins with you. Consider what you want and make it happen. Participation is necessary if you want to reach your destination.
