Your Birthday for September 07, 2024

Your Birthday | September 7th, 2024

Born today, you not only have a tendency to think you know best about everything and that your ideas are always top notch, but you also have a knack for doing things in such a way that you prove it to everyone around you -- more or less. You are confident to a fault, and while others may accuse you of being overconfident, it tends to work for you, and you are more than willing to jump into new situations with gusto. The truth that you hide very well from others, of course, is that you do harbor certain doubts and insecurities that would surely stand in your way if you let them, but because you bury them so deep within, they aren't likely to have an impact on your performance or accomplishment very often -- though you are likely to be aware of them at all times.

Once you decide to do a thing you will do it to the best of your ability, with full commitment and a die-hard attitude that ensures you'll see it through to the bitter end. Fortunately, however, you rarely have to do things entirely on your own; you know how to gather a top-notch team of friends and supporters around you whenever necessary.

Also born on this date are: Queen Elizabeth I of Great Britain; Sonny Rollins, jazz musician and composer; Grandma Moses, painter; Elia Kazan, stage and film director; Buddy Holly, rock and roll legend; Paul Brown, football coach; Chrissie Hynde, singer; David Packard, Hewlett-Packard co-founder; Edith Sitwell, poet and critic; J.P. Morgan, financier; Peter Lawford, actor; Daniel Inouye, U.S. senator.

Your Birthday for September 06, 2024

by Stella Wilder

Your Birthday | September 6th, 2024

Born today, you are always determined to place yourself at the very epicenter of activity. When young, this meant playing on sports teams and taking part in all manner of extracurricular endeavors, and with maturity will come a dedication to professional involvement that not only turns heads in your direction but also secures your place as someone who can really get things done. It is this last that is so very important to you; you want to be known as a "mover and a shaker," the kind of person to push things forward and ensure progress in both private and business affairs. You are likely to dedicate yourself to making things happen for others, as well as for yourself.

You are never willing to sacrifice your ideals for an "easy success," and you're not likely to take many shortcuts in your life. You will build quite a reputation as a result as one to be relied on for principles and constancy -- and one to fight against anything you consider to be wrong in your own life or the lives of others.

Also born on this date are: Jeff Foxworthy, comedian; Chris Christie, New Jersey governor; Macy Gray, singer; Swoosie Kurtz, actress; Jo Anne Worley, actress and comedienne.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You must be ready for things to progress more quickly than expected today. Once you're immersed in a certain situation you must go the distance.

Your Birthday for September 05, 2024

by Stella Wilder

Your Birthday | September 5th, 2024

Born today, you are likely to develop into a dynamic, accomplished, and ultimately content adult, but only after suffering through several phases when you are younger marked by uncertainty, failure, and dissatisfaction with yourself and what you do. Fortunately, you have a way of stumbling onto opportunity, and that special knack is almost certainly going to break the pattern of disappointment set during your youth and open up so many doors to you that you will have far more options to explore and choices to make than you might ever have imagined. And once that begins to happen to you, you're not likely to be stopped. Once you get into the habit of doing, doing, doing, the sky's the limit!

When you do get your big break, it will be as if you are finally doing what you were meant to do -- and so you will be! You have tremendous talent and the drive required to make the most of it, though you may at times have trouble balancing the personal and professional in your daily life.

Also born on this date are: Freddie Mercury, singer; Michael Keaton, actor; Rose McGowan, actress; Raquel Welch, actress; Bob Newhart, actor and comedian; George Lazenby, actor; John Cage, composer; Jesse James, outlaw; Cathy Guisewite, cartoonist.

FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 6

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Your thoughts may turn to a friendship that has cooled dramatically over the past weeks or months. Is it time to call it quits officially?

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You'll have a chance to overshadow someone today, but are you sure that's the way to go? Play it cool and take a more subtle approach.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- The trail you're on today is likely to lead you toward something quite surprising, and you'll learn an important lesson or two along the way.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You may feel in need of a "tune up" of some kind today, and it's more than likely that time spent with a certain someone will do the trick.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You and a partner have the opportunity today to get to know each other better, and that can improve your working relationships considerably.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You may have to do more today to accomplish less than anticipated -- but this is only a low ebb of a cycle that will wax boldly very soon.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You may be tempted to yell "Stop!" to whoever is pulling you in two directions at once -- until you realize that you're doing it to yourself.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- Pay attention to what you are thinking when your mind wanders. Such mental ramblings can be quite valuable as you try to assess the status quo.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You may struggle today when things don't add up as planned, but with a little tinkering you can have everything in proper order.
