Happy birthday for Wednesday, Aug. 16, 2006:

You have a special manner and personality that serve as a magnet. Your inner light seems to radiate more than ever this year, drawing in many people. You will enjoy many more new friendships, and you will expand your horizons. You might see life from a different perspective as you become so upbeat and positive. Still, you might experience a period in which you are unusually stern or touchy. Stay even while accepting your responsibilities. If single, you will remember 2007, as a dynamic romance blows into your life. If attached, work on the friendship as well as the love tie. Both of you will become much happier and closer. Gemini makes a great playmate.
