If Your Birthday Is Today

Actor Billy Crudup (1968) shares your birthday today. You are protective to others. You build and create organizations, which is why you are also concerned with practical results. This is a year of change and it’s the year you’ve been waiting for. Expect expansion and great activity in your life. Take advantage of opportunities. A major change might take place, perhaps as significant as what occurred around 2006.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Things are complicated today. Unexpected events will change your daily routine. Power struggles with an authority figure might give you pause. However, your genuine concern for peace in the family will make you careful about your response.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Arguments with others might break out today because you’re upset about something. It might be something private or behind the scenes. Nevertheless, you won’t throw your weight around because you see the benefits of a patient approach to helping someone. Very admirable.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

You might experience a power struggle with a female in a group or a friend. This could be triggered by a surprise or someone saying or doing something that catches you off guard. But you’re not going to take your ball and bat and go home. Instead, you will look for ways to fix this problem.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Things feel uneasy with authority figures today, especially females. You might not be happy with an edict from on high. Nevertheless, you will decide not to make waves. After assessing things, you see how you can live with this situation, at least for now.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

For some reason, even though you have a strong reaction to a political, religious or racial situation, you are choosing to play your cards close to your heaving bosom. The wisest course of action seems to be to be low-key and not make a big deal about anything.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Disputes about shared property, inheritances or insurance matters might rankle you today. In fact, this is something you didn’t expect. Nevertheless, to keep morale high and show support for others, you will defer to whatever is happening because it’s the classy thing to do.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Relations with partners and close friends are testy today. You might be unhappy about something but feel you can’t speak out, especially if it involves a parent, boss or authority figure. It’s true. Sometimes when you open your mouth, you can lose more ground. Follow your gut instincts.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Something will interrupt your work routine today, staff shortages, equipment breakdowns, computer glitches or cancelled meetings. Naturally, this upsets you. Nevertheless, you’re prepared to take one for the team and cut someone some slack.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Be patient with romantic partners today; and be patient with children. That’s because it’s easy to be frustrated with others, even if you know your hands are tied. Be aware that this is an accident-prone day for your kids, as well as a quarrelsome day for romance.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Something unexpected will impact your home routine, or perhaps, a family member today. As a result, you might want to lash out at someone; fortunately, you probably won’t. Something will hold you back. Quite likely, it’ your better judgment. Did you know that the origin of the word scruples means “to hesitate”?

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Be careful because this is an accident-prone day for you; therefore, watch what you say and watch what you do. Part of the problem is you might have some kind of inner anger building up within you. Fortunately, you will be relaxed at work because here you feel calmer.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Keep an eye on your money and cash flow today because something unpredictable might impact things. You might find money; you might lose money. It’s interesting to note that even if this upsets you, you will probably say nothing because this seems to be the wiser choice.
