BIRTHDAY STAR: Actor Molly Ephraim was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, on this day in 1986. This birthday actor played Soph Cooper on “The Paper,” Mandy Baxter on Tim Allen’s “Last Man Standing,” and Hazel Prystock on “Perry Mason.” She has also appeared on episodes of “A League of Their Own,” “Pretty Smart,” and “Modern Family.” On the big screen Ephraim’s film work includes “The Front Runner,” “Paranormal Activity 2,” and “College Road Trip.”
ARIES (March 21-April 19): Today is another exceptional day in the sky for important actions and decisions if your individual cycles are also strongly helpful. If you’ve been waiting to break free and deliver the news, today could be the day.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Some financial healing could be afoot, a fresh new tack could turn the whole ship around. There could be some fine print or a string attached, check it all out before you make any commitments.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): You could really be coming into your own, watch out world. You’ll go furthest with being open yet staying disciplined. Anyone who needs to be right just to be right could complicate a situation.
CANCER (June 21-July 22): Despite super-strong Universal stars, a financial move isn’t recommended for you today unless your individual financial cycles are so powerfully positive that they completely overturn your sign’s prediction.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): An opportunity that arises through a friend isn’t likely unmixed, there could be freedom and a potential status increase but there could be a hidden element too. Do a deep dive to understand all parameters.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You might need to face an obstacle before you make any real progress, and financial progress is there to be made. The obstacle is likely a no-win cluster, anyway, don’t get drawn in.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): It could be hard to know if the info you’re receiving is intended to help or is intended to foul the works. Let your nervous system be your oracle, learn how to keep it in top form, it’s your best gatekeeper.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): It’s not a great day for money moves for you, despite a great Universal day score. There could be a hidden agenda or something that’s not quite straight up. Don’t follow impulses out in the world today.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Don’t get caught up in a relationship tangle, take a beat and let the path smooth out a bit ahead of you before you re-engage. You could be tempted to fool around and find out online or very publicly. Don’t please.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You could slide right past a speed bump and make a lot of things work out now. Both mind and money could be on your side long-term. This said, do not, do not, make an impulsive financial move today!
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): It could like a great day to be alive, regardless of the state of the world, regardless of all your personal challenges. There’s some joyous fire rising, enjoy it as fully as you can, it’s what makes all the rest worthwhile.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Free yourself of old rules and old habits that no longer reflect who you’ve become, sometimes the box you’re in was built by a previous version of you. Stay grounded as you move through your day.
IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY: Almost immediately you could feel big changes as you start your new personal year. A drive to reach new heights could be overpowering and the Universe could comply by bringing social visibility and a big new opportunity. There could be a fly in the ointment, so do plenty of homework before you sign on to anything, but it shouldn’t be a deal-breaker. Artistry and grace could be plentiful in later June and July. July will likely ask you clarify your path forward, ask and the Universe should deliver answers at this time. There’s some gentle benevolence and guidance flowing as July fades into August. August could be a test of self-discipline, several reactive and risk-loving planets and points are teaming up to tempt you to upend your life. Stick to what’s wise, safe, and known.
