Happy Birthday for Wednesday, Feb. 21, 2024:
You are independent with a dominating presence, which means you take the lead. Life is easiest for you if you are just yourself. This is a year of hard work and focus. It’s also a year where you can build something internally or externally that will benefit you.
ARIES
(March 21-April 19)
★★
Today you might experience challenges with romantic partners. Likewise, parents might experience challenges with their kids today. (Don’t worry. This is nothing you can’t handle.) Meanwhile, a friend or a member of a group might persuade you to do something. Tonight: Socialize.
TAURUS
(April 20-May 20)
★★
Be circumspect today. It’s important to have your own self interests at heart, because someone in authority might try to persuade you to do something you don’t want to do. Mind you, this authority person could be your parent, and you might be 9. Just saying … Tonight: Cocoon.
GEMINI
(May 21-June 20)
★★★
Steer clear of people who are coming on too strong or trying to convince you to agree with their political, religious or (fill in the blank) views. Some people are pushy and persuasive today, which doesn’t mean they don’t have a good cause. But you need the freedom of choice. Tonight: Discussions.
CANCER
(June 21-July 22)
★★
Be careful in discussions about shared property, taxes, debt, insurance issues or inheritances. There’s an element of mental manipulation in the air today. You might encounter this. Someone might convince you that it’s in your best interests to part with something. Don’t do it. Tonight: Check your belongings.
LEO
(July 23-Aug. 22)
★★
Be patient and gracious when dealing with close friends and partners today, which, in one way, will actually be easy. However, in some cases, someone might try to make some sneaky demands or prey on your kindness and generosity. Don’t be a sucker. Tonight: Be alert.
VIRGO
(Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
★★
First, a reminder that you need more sleep. People might be working on your behalf now, which is a good thing. But if you feel someone is asking you to agree to something that you’re not comfortable with, listen to your own hesitancy. Protect your own self interests. Tonight: Solitude.
LIBRA
(Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
★★★
A discussion with a friend or a group might be important today. However, be careful not to be manipulated by romantic partners or even your kids, because this is possible. Stand up for yourself and quit being a people-pleaser, at least for today. Tonight: Friendships.
SCORPIO
(Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
★★
You might be at odds with parents or bosses today. Perhaps you’re trying to do something that you want. Or perhaps someone is asking you to do something that you’re not really happy about. If so, listen to the little voice on your shoulder that is warning you. Protect yourself. Tonight: Be modest.
SAGITTARIUS
(Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
★★
Refrain from trying to convince others to agree with your views today. Resist the temptation. And by the same token, don’t let anyone coerce you into agreeing with them, because it’s a fact that lively, persuasive conversations will take place today. Tonight: Learn.
CAPRICORN
(Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
★★
Hold on to your money today. Someone might tempt you to part with it, or you might be tempted to part with it. You can’t resist buying something, especially if someone is clever at “selling” you something. Persuasive maneuvers are everywhere today. Tonight: Check your finances.
AQUARIUS
(Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
★★★
Today Venus and Mars are lined up in your sign, which gives you tremendous persuasive energy. Very few will resist your demands or requests. (Take pity on the little people.) You can use this energy wisely, or you can abuse it. Likewise, don’t let others manipulate you if you don’t want to do something. Tonight: Cooperate.
PISCES
(Feb. 19-March 20)
★★
For the most part, you are strong today because the Sun is in your sign. Nevertheless, a gaggle of planets is acting up in a hidden part of your chart, which could cause you to say or do something without thinking. Be mindful today. Be aware. Tonight: Work.
