YOUR BIRTHDAY by Stella Wilder
Born today, you are likely to hit the ground
running and never look back, so remarkable
are your talents and so strong your will to
succeed. You also have tremendous stamina,
and you can work long hours to ensure that
you reach your goals ahead of schedule and
often under budget. And yours are lofty
goals, indeed! You want to be nothing but the
best, and you can surely make that happen if
you take full advantage of the opportunities
that come your way when you are young.
MONDAY, MARCH 29
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You’ve said
before -- and you’ll say again -- that a certain
shared experience is not for you. Today, how-
ever, it might fit you perfectly!
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- While
working your way toward your own “per-
sonal best,” you may attract spectators -- and,
quite possibly, a few people who want to tag
along.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Your affec-
tion for someone who is currently in a bind
may compel you to step out of your comfort
zone in order to help. Keep your eyes open!
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You can
score a very important personal first today --
and perhaps without even trying! You’ll know
what this means as night falls.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You must take
the time today to examine all your options --
even those that promise a measure of hard-
ship -- before making a final decision.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Now is not
the time for testing others or threatening
boundaries. Play it safe today by sticking to
your home turf -- and what you know.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You may
come to the realization today that someone
has been playing you for a fool -- but no
more! Realizing it is the first step.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- A compli-
cation keeps you from cashing in today, but
it’s only a delay, not a permanent setback.
Soon you’ll have all you deserve.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) --
You’re in the mood for something more than
the same old interaction today. How can you
make it happen? First things first: Ask a
friend.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You
may be unusually fatigued today, but you
mustn’t call it quits prematurely. You will be
able to stick it out until the end of the day.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You may
find yourself obsessed with a trivial, even
meaningless development today. “How could
this have happened?” you’ll ask yourself.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- It’s time to
find out just what your ideas are worth, and
that means opening up and sharing them
with those who make the big decisions.
MONDAY, MARCH 29, 2021
YOUR BIRTHDAY by Stella Wilder
Born today, you are one of the most for-
ward-thinking and imaginative individuals
born under your sign, and you have a knack
for making the most out of even the most
mundane or routine of situations. You also
have a way of doing things that makes it seem
as though you are working comfortably in
your wheelhouse, when the truth may be
something quite different -- for you’re never
one to let others see just how difficult a situa-
tion or activity might actually be.
TUESDAY, MARCH 30
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You may
learn from an unverified source that you’ve
been working in the wrong way toward the
wrong goal. Find out if this is really true!
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- The social
component of a professional responsibility
should allow you to enjoy something much
more today than you otherwise would.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You mustn’t
let someone’s offhanded comment knock you
off your plate today. It means nothing in the
scheme of things; ignore it!
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You may
run into someone today who is not willing to
give you the inch you’re asking for -- much
less the mile you are ready to take.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- An accident
leaves you with a few big decisions to make
today. You may not have time to confer with
the usual helpers; you must think on your
feet!
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You are not
willing to take any risks today, especially with
someone’s time or money. That leaves you
with only one choice, doesn’t it?
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You may have
to go through your “archenemy” today to get
where you intend to go. After some frustra-
tion, you should find a way to do it!
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You
mustn’t let the need for collaboration keep
you from sharing ideas freely today. Criticism
is the name of the game, after all -- isn’t it?
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) --
You’ll find a way to change the rules ever so
slightly today -- but in a manner that benefits
you greatly. Now you can pick up the pace.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- What
you hear through the grapevine serves you
well when the time comes to make a personal
decision. Rumor is as good as fact today.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You’ll
realize just in time that someone has done
you a big favor -- and now it’s your turn to
return it with generous thanks.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You may
choose to let your assigned work go today --
at least for a time -- while you step in and
assist a friend with a personal project.
