Happy birthday for Wednesday, Oct. 23, 2019:
This year, you demonstrate the capacity to identify with others more fully. You understand where they come from. This ability can only help your interactions and bonds. If single, you might enjoy being free for a while, but someone will snag your interest. Stop and get to know this person. If attached, the two of you interact with a greater sense of friendship. You love going out together. VIRGO can fuss and fuss some more.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult

ARIES (March 21-April 19)

Your focus will be on others. You will note that one specific person can switch from easygoing to incredibly intense. Know that he or she will change back too. Don’t get too uptight. Tonight: Get a head start on tomorrow.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

You could be altogether exhausted by everything that is going on around you. You have a lot to do, possibly more than your share. Tap into your creativity and it could make the day easier. Tonight: Indulge a child or loved one.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

Be as clear as you can be when dealing with a loved one or dear friend. He or she might be impacting your domestic or personal life far more than you realize. An associate could become intense but expect you to respond in kind! Tonight: Play it easy.

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

Feelings seem to pop up out of nowhere. You might want to share them with a little less drama than usual if you want someone to respond and not get overwhelmed. Your ingenuity turns a situation around. Tonight: Get together with friends.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

Be more indulgent of others and aware of what you want. You might not always see the right way to mix these two different goals. Trust that it is doable. You just have not found the path — yet! Tonight: Go shopping. Treat yourself.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

You bloom in circumstances where others become uptight. You might not be able to handle the immediate reaction of a loved one or friend. Relax and let your feelings flow and move. Tonight: As you like it.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Curb a tendency to be possessive. You might not always be sure of what is best for you. If you feel out of sync with someone, perhaps the interaction might need some adjustment, or you might want to move on. Tonight: Go with the moment.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

The Sun enters your sign revitalizing your energy. Start thinking about birthday resolutions. You more than many signs can transform situations. Be honest with yourself about a friendship and/or your long-term desires. Tonight: Ask questions.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Speak your mind clearly, knowing full well what it is you want and desire. Do not expect an immediate response, but if someone doesn’t know what you desire, it becomes difficult to give it to you. Tonight: Find your friends.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Sometimes it is important to go over your goals to see if they are still valid for you. Do not be surprised if you need to make an adjustment to your wish list. Kick back and do some thinking about visiting with a loved one or family member soon. Tonight: Be understanding.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

One-on-one relating draws strong results. You might consider expanding your ability to connect with someone new or an old friend. Curb a tendency to go overboard with shopping. New car? New phone? Wait before you buy. Tonight: Study the ways of communication.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

Your feelings come out as soon as a loved one or close associate knocks on your door. You know when you have been pushed too far. You express disdain in an interesting manner. Tonight: The only answer is yes.
