CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Ashlee Simpson, 25; Erik von Detten, 27; India.Arie, 34; Neve Campbell, 36

Happy Birthday: You'll be pulled in several directions this year. Don't give up something you want or you may not be given a second chance. There is no time to waste getting upset over something or someone you cannot change. Have confidence in who you are and what you can do and people will recognize what you have to offer. Your numbers are 10, 19, 22, 27, 33, 36, 48

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Don't get into hot water by speaking your mind and giving ultimatums. You may need to make changes but be considerate of the people your decisions affect. Consider an open discussion to appease everyone. 3 stars

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Possessions and cash will go missing quickly. A deal of a lifetime may be tempting but, instead, put your cash into your home and family. A job you want is likely to become available. 3 stars

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): You'll be drawn to frivolous acts and impulsive purchases. Being too generous to win acceptance will work initially but will leave you short of cash and hurting emotionally. Don't settle for less or give away too much. 4 stars

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Don't be too hard on the ones you love. Listening is an art that may not be easy to master when you see the ones you care for making mistakes. You can invest time in your surroundings, education or a small business you've wanted to start. 2 stars

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Spending money you don't have will take its toll. Trying to appease everyone by being the hero will not cut it when you are left alone to deal with matters responsibly. Don't be afraid to ask for help. 3 stars

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Keep your emotions under control and everything will run smoothly. It's playing the game honestly but well that will lead to your success. Make time for friends who have the same interests. 3 stars

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Secrets may be kept from you right now. Don't pry; someone is likely trying to surprise you. An emotional twist in your day will start you thinking about long-term prospects. 3 stars

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Take a break, have some fun and remember what it's like to be stress-free. You can sort through some of the confusion at home by setting guidelines and a budget. Someone will offer you a deal or insight into how you can make one of your dreams come true. 3 stars

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): A poor choice will influence relationships and cause unrest at home. On the bright side, you do need to revamp your space and lay out a plan for the future. Keep your thoughts to yourself until you have something tangible in place for all to see. 5 stars

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You'll face some emotional turmoil if you deny someone who is used to getting everything. Don't back down, even if it means you will spend the day alone. You have other things to occupy your time and opportunities to consider that will help you financially, legally or physically. 2 stars

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You have to put a price on what you have to offer or you will devalue your services. Don't let someone from your past bully you. Fight for equality, justice and peace of mind. 4 stars

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): You've got what it takes to mesmerize onlookers with your stamina and courage. Challenge yourself physically and you will be impressed by the results you get. Pursue someone whose attention you've been trying to get and you will be successful. 3 stars

Birthday Baby: You are exciting and imaginative. You have common sense and are stable and diplomatic. You are sensitive to what others think.
