Born today, you are a thoughtful and rather intense individual with a great deal of energy and vision to apply to all manner of endeavors -- but ironically you tend to apply little to the kinds of things you have to do to make your way in the world, and choose to live up to your true potential only doing those things you want to do. This can surely be a problem if fortune doesn’t present to you the opportunity to do what you want when you want, but you are a lucky individual and will no doubt enjoy your share of opportunity and then some.

You see things the way you see them, and you build a body of ideals and opinions upon the examples of life that the world presents to you. You don’t always recognize that the lens through which you view the world at large is one of your own making and which allows you to see things and judge things very differently from the way most others do.
Also born on this date are: Ernest Hemingway, writer; Don Knotts, actor; Robin Williams, comedian and actor; Juno Temple, actress; Isaac Stern, violinist; Jon Lovitz, comedian and actor.

MONDAY, JULY 22
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Someone rarely in your company may play a major role in your affairs today, even from afar. Keep communication open at all times.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You may be walking a tightrope between two sides of a major issue throughout much of the day, but later you’ll have to choose sides.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- What mattered so much to you yesterday is likely to appear somewhat trivial to you today, as you are seeing things through a clearer lens.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- No matter how things pan out today, you’ll benefit from certain interactions with those who don’t usually figure prominently in your affairs.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- What you say today will be remembered by those who are looking for something to nail you on -- but you’ll give them little on which to act.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Rather than follow trends as they change today, why not be at the vanguard and set them yourself? You have the power and know what you like.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- Issues others call “major” are likely to challenge you very little today, but what’s easy to others is something you’d not like to repeat.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- Are you ready to jump through hoops? That’s what’s required if you’re still after the same things today that you were in days past.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You must be willing to do something today that others go out of their way to avoid if you’re going to quicken the pace moving forward.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You can remain quite calm today in the face of something that would have others running for the exits. Recent lessons serve you well.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- Put yourself in another’s shoes today and you’ll understand why you cannot come together on an issue that’s important to both of you.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- Approach what you do today with serious intention rather than casual interest and you’re sure to succeed despite certain challenges.
