For Wednesday, July 4

Those with birthdays today: This year, approach life from a more creative or broad-minded perspective. How you think and what you do could change substantially. You might want to approach a matter differently or more creatively. You are lively and far different than you have been in years. Others will be only too pleased to work with you. If you are single, a relationship will star this year. Could this be your very special person? If you are attached, your relationship will grow in a new direction because of your increased insight. Together you make a fond wish come true. PISCES encourages imagination.

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)

¢¢¢ As there was so much anticipation of the Fourth, suddenly you might feel depleted now that it is here. How you speak your mind and what you say does affect others more than you realize. Tonight: Slowly but surely.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

¢¢¢¢¢ Zero in on what you want, when you want. Your laughter will take you in a new direction if you just open up. A barbecue or fun event presents you with many different options. Tonight: Where the gang is.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

¢¢¢¢ Follow through on what happens involving a child or loved one. How you see events and the choices you make are substantially different. Lighten up and talk about some rather strong feelings. Tonight: A must appearance.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

¢¢¢¢¢ Zero in on what you want because you want to make it so. A male friend might push you hard in one direction. He or she might want you to be more proactive. Take a mini day trip if you want. Tonight: New vistas.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

¢¢¢¢ Know that someone really does need your attention. Still, you might feel a demand to do something quite differently. How you deal with someone could be impacted by frustration. Tonight: A must appearance.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

¢¢¢¢¢ Others clearly want to run the show. You might have made a major effort to get where you are, but know that sometimes you need to pull back. A trip, even a short one, could be important. Tonight: So many people, so much fun.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

¢¢¢¢ You get much more accomplished than you thought possible. How you deal with someone could change your bond. Your ability to move past a hassle could help enormously. Tonight: Be willing to pitch in.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

¢¢¢¢ You might not be right most of the time, and someone lets you know it too. Still, let your hair down. You might be stunned by how much naughtiness can come forth if you let it. Tonight: A big smile.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

¢¢¢¢¢ You might want to do well by others and do all you can to make friends and family relax. Celebrations might be the happiest around your home, even if it means you need to do most of the work. Tonight: Hang out.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

¢¢¢¢ Every element that might be associated with “patriotic” comes out. For some it’s flying the flag; for others it might the snap, crackle and pop of fireworks. Tonight: Celebrate the night away.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

¢¢¢¢ Unfortunately, extravagance could earmark a very fun period. Don’t always volunteer to be the one to go out and get this or that. You might be a lot happier if you relax and work with the moment. Tonight: Treat yourself well too!

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

¢¢¢¢¢ Step up, take a bow and enjoy being the centerpiece the next few days. How you handle someone and the choices you make could be very different. Don’t allow for any moping. Tonight: Could be close to perfect.
