HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Wednesday, Sept. 30, 2020:
Curious, knowledgeable and perfectionist, you’re an expert in ferreting out the truth. You impress people, and this year, you outdo even yourself with the recognition you receive. Finances are also good. If single, you attract many, but you’re picky and might have to wait until next year to find your true mate. If attached, your love is idealistic and complete, and your partner is your hero. CAPRICORN tells you the truth.


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)

★★★

Delays and changes are likely to test your patience. You might handle the morning with more calmness and equanimity than is usual for you. Proceed cautiously with personal plans. The adventurer in you is awakened as the day draws to a close. Tonight: Relax.


TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

★★★

A powerful new friendship or group affiliation is formed. One word of caution: You might attract a powerful new friend in the form of a ruthless and manipulative individual out for his or her own gain. Avoid power struggles. Tonight: A blitz of online networking.


GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

★★★★

Exciting, new work-related opportunities come your way. There is a possible mix of social life and work; you might be attending (remotely) an important business function. Dealings with co-workers should be relatively pleasant. Tonight: Adjusting to changes in your work schedule.


CANCER (June 21-July 22)

★★★

Today brings a time of restlessness when energies might be scattered in many directions. Don’t make permanent decisions today, although singles might meet someone with marital potential. Wait a few days before proceeding forward. Tonight: Take a long, soothing bath.


LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

★★★

Partnerships (and you personally) seem on an uneven keel. Know that this is short-lived. Those of you involved in sports certainly have the edge. You will have to take the initiative today. Beware of possessiveness. Tonight: No one can make up their mind.


VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

★★★★

You make a favorable impression. A new friendship could be found with a fiery, communicative person. He or she is likely to share a similar outlook on life; each of you could learn a lot from each other. Tonight: Stay out of others’ relationship battles.


LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

★★★

If working, expect blocks and delays. Don’t be surprised if co-workers seem out of sorts. Skip domestic or career decision-making; any decision made will be subject to change. Besides this, you will find you don’t have all the facts. Tonight: Hearing from a long-lost friend.


SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

★★★★

Today brings increased responsibilities involving children — or romance with someone older. Commitments made could be lasting. There’ll be no sitting on the sidelines. For the most part, you’ll be able to charmingly navigate your way out of any difficulties. Tonight: Early bedtime.


SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

★★★★

Today brings opportunities through important new social contacts, perhaps with those from another culture. Business might be combined with pleasure now. However, you might feel that some personal sacrifice is necessary in order to get ahead. Tonight: Remote Zooming.


CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

★★★

Today emphasizes a continuing need for cooperation with co-workers, who might be undergoing their own personal crises. Be careful of mixing romance with work, as jealousy could bring upset and disharmony. Tonight: Overdue phone calls and emails.


AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

★★★★

Hold onto any extra money that comes your way. Don’t be surprised if you find yourself feeling quite feisty today. But remember that impatience and argumentativeness will bring only discord. Tonight: Cooperation will be more easily achieved, and balance regained.


PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

★★★★★

Endeavors begun today could turn out to be long-term and secure, as well as bringing future opportunities. You have the green light to follow up on ideas and discussions that have been put on the back burner. Tonight: Celebrating with joy.


Born today: Author Truman Capote (1924), actress Marion Cotillard (1975), tennis player Martina Hingis (1980)
