Happy Birthday for Tuesday, July 23, 2024:

You are warm, sympathetic, generous and selfless. You are intelligent and have a gift for helping others. This is a slower-paced year. It’s time to rest and rejuvenate yourself. Surround yourself with people who have your back. Focus on relationships that bring you happiness.

ARIES

(March 21-April 19)
★★
Today your interests are best served by working alone or behind the scenes, because something might upset you that makes you end up doing a slow boil. Grrr. This means even though you’re annoyed, you feel you can’t say anything. (So frustrating.) Nevertheless, trust your gut instincts. Tonight: Privacy.

TAURUS

(April 20-May 20)
★★★
Difficulties with a friend or a group could arise today. This might be due to competition or jealousy. Be careful of sharing information with someone in case they later use it as ammunition against you. Instead, focus on making your home look more attractive. Tonight: Friendships.

GEMINI

(May 21-June 20)
★★
Be patient when dealing with authority figures today, like parents, bosses, VIPs and the police. Not only might you regret it if you get into a hotheaded dispute, this quarrel will likely be public. This is because people notice you more than usual today. Be aware of this. Tonight: Show respect.

CANCER

(June 21-July 22)
★★★
Avoid controversial subjects today, because people are looking for a fight, especially this morning. You don’t need this. Instead, focus on financial matters and money issues. You have moneymaking ideas, plus you’re interested in purchasing something pretty. Tonight: Explore!

LEO

(July 23-Aug. 22)
★★
You might clash with someone about shared property, taxes, debt or inheritances today. There will be a difference of opinion about how something is shared or divided. (Probably, this person is a friend or a member of a group.) Make sure you do your homework and have your facts. Tonight: Check your finances.

VIRGO

(Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
★★★
Challenging conversations with authority figures, especially parents, bosses and the police, might occur today, especially this morning. If possible, avoid these. Some fights are not worth it. Right now, you benefit from keeping your head down and your powder dry. Tonight: Cooperate.

LIBRA

(Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
★★
Issues about politics, religion, travel or foreign countries are just some reasons you might have a squabble at work today. You might encounter cultural differences that require creative thinking. Difficulties regarding a pet also might arise. Disputes could be health-related. Whatever it is, keep your cool. Tonight: Work.

SCORPIO

(Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
★★★
Minor quarrels with your kids or a romantic partner might arise today about how to share something. Or perhaps it’s about the division of labor. Or it might be about how expenses are shared. These are touchy subjects, but they have to be addressed. Defend your best interests. Tonight: Socialize.

SAGITTARIUS

(Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
★★
Make an extra effort to be patient with family members today to avoid arguments. These challenges might take place with a partner or a spouse, or another family member. Timing is everything. Sometimes it’s wise to pick and choose your fights — you know this. Tonight: Relax.

CAPRICORN

(Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
★★★
Pay attention to everything you say and do, because this is a mildly accident-prone day. An accident doesn’t have to happen; however, you might be annoyed with someone and, therefore, distracted. Quarrels with daily contacts are likely today. Stay chill — for your own benefit. Tonight: Discussions.

AQUARIUS

(Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
★★
Money squabbles, especially with your kids or a romantic partner, might arise today. Or there could be disputes about paying something related to a restaurant tab or the arts, sports, social outings or even the cost of raising children. These issues are often difficult to resolve. Tonight: Check your belongings.

PISCES

(Feb. 19-March 20)
★★★
Today the Moon is in your sign, and it’s at odds with fiery Mars. This can lead to emotional, volatile outbreaks. It’s easy to be quarrelsome with others or to get upset and lose your temper. The fact is, many people will be irritable, impulsive and self-indulgent today. (Yikes! Run for cover.) Tonight: You win!
