HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Thursday, July 16, 2009: This year, focus on your long-term needs and desires. A strong group of supporters will cheer you on in the good times and the bad. If single, the world is nearly your oyster. If attached, the more you socialize, the closer your bond will become. Taurus serves as an anchor.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) •••• The unexpected is always a factor in anyone’s life, but even more so in yours. When events and situations go out of control, it is to help you see or notice what normally evades your perspective.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) ••••• Right now, you beam from one situation to another, grounded and directed. You seem to be able to mobilize great ideas with finesse and directness.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) ••• Much goes on behind the scenes. Listen more; judge less. Evaluate more than decide. A boss can push the envelope, but you know how to respond. Be aware of the possibilities.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) ••••• Look to long-term results, and you will smile more. Friends cheer you on to a long-desired goal. Associates also could play a significant role in upcoming events.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) ••••• Your sense of direction continues to guide others. You know what you want and where you are going. Listen to news with a touch of cynicism.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) ••••• Use an ability to detach and understand someone better by imagining what it must be like to be this person. Dealing with this behavior could become a skill.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) ••••• Your style of communicating and your very different way make quite an impact. A key associate or partner has a lot to say. Rethink a decision with the advice of this person.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) ••••• Defer to others knowing you don’t always want to be the one left holding the bag. A fun approach will get you far, if you allow it to.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) ••• Establish in your mind what you need to accomplish. A strong but steady pace will work best. Excitement heads in from out of left field.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) ••••• Your creativity resolves a situation, or it certainly will help. You could easily draw an unexpected reaction. A partner or associate has a lot of differing views.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) ••• Foundations must be strong in order to build what you want. Sometimes for you the process of getting there can be more important than the end result.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) •••• Keep conversations flowing, remaining sensitive to the many possibilities that exist around you. If you could get to the bottom of an issue, what would you do with the information?
