HAPPY BIRTHDAY: Don’t get ahead of yourself this year. A strong work ethic with hands-on nurturing will help you get where you want to go. A love connection may not turn out to be what you think. Don’t let this turn of events cost you precious time and money. Be prepared to move on. Numbers: 5, 14, 18, 21, 30, 36, 44

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Secrets will be kept and force plays may be made. Dealing with medical, legal and financial concerns will lessen the stress in your life. You may have fewer options but your past experience will help you.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Make abrupt changes without giving anyone too much notice — the reactions you observe will help you make decisions for the future. The truth will be revealed about things you’ve been excluded from. Regroup and make up for lost time.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Unexpected emotional matters will surface. You must act fast so others can’t question your plans. Keep things simple and don’t stretch the truth.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Put time into getting ahead professionally and, before you know it, your cash flow will improve. Don’t be afraid to be unique. Children will disclose important information.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Redecorating or making an addition to your home entertainment system will help you avoid getting into a heated discussion. Consider an investment in property. Friends will be more understanding than family.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Don’t fear the unknown: Embrace it and try new things that will broaden your vision and help you recognize your options. Love looks good; make moves that will encourage greater companionship.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Watch for those taking advantage of you. If demands are made, move on. You’re used to keeping the peace and sharing but, once a relationship loses its equality, you’re left with little choice.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Personal changes may not please everyone, but you’re the one who must be happy. A partnership you’re in needs a little shake before you can carry on. Provide your family or roommates with a place to work, play or just hang out.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Derogatory comments will slow you down and may make you insecure. Traveling will lead to delays and difficulty dealing with someone in a position of authority. An unexpected change with someone older will cause added responsibilities.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Be careful how you react. Irrational behavior will lead to financial loss. Consider your motives before getting involved with someone who may not be a good match. Focus on work, not play.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Don’t show your surprise if someone makes an unexpected fast move. A twist of fate may leave you uncertain, but if you don’t show concern, you’ll stay in control. Avoid arguments with your lover.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Love is hot. By splitting costs with someone who likes to do the same things you do, you can do much more. Separate your love life from your professional and financial life and you’ll enjoy the benefits of your relationship without worry.
