Your Daily Horoscope -- January 26, 2015

Today's Birthday Horoscope: January 26, 2015 Born today, you are a natural trailblazer, never content with following the same path for too long, and always willing to venture into uncharted territory to see what may lurk there -- and to see what opportunities you may discover for yourself and for others. You are never completely self-serving in your desire for novelty. Indeed, you often take the lead and charge into new realms with the specific intent of uncovering what waits there for all who choose to follow -- though it is clearly understood that you will win the recognition you deserve for being first! While you are not always competitive in the most traditional sense, you are driven to do things that others have not done -- or cannot do.      You enjoy a rich and varied social life, yet you enjoy your privacy as well -- and the balance between the two may be difficult to strike. Still, you are never going to sacrifice one for the other, so a balance it is, no matter how difficult it may be or how long it may take to achieve it.      Also Born Today Also born on this date are: Ellen DeGeneres, comedian, actress and television host; Wayne Gretzky, hockey player; Eddie Van Halen, musician and songwriter; Paul Newman, actor; Anita Baker, singer; Douglas MacArthur, U.S. military leader; Scott Glenn, actor; Gene Siskel, film critic; Christopher Hampton, playwright and screenwriter; Jules Feiffer, cartoonist and playwright. Aries March 21 - April 19 You are eager to get things done on your own, though you're likely to try one thing in particular that requires a team effort. Taurus April 20 - May 20 Are you sure that what you are doing is having the desired effect? Sure, you are enjoying yourself, but is that really enough? Gemini May 21 - June 21 The questions you ask will be quite revealing. The answers, however, may not tell you everything you need to know. Cancer June 22 - July 22 It may take you much longer than usual to get settled into a routine that you find both natural and productive. Leo July 23 - Aug 22 You'll be able to turn in a rather impressive performance -- even though much of what you accomplish is the result of improvisation. Virgo Aug 23 - Sept 22 It's time for you to let others know just what you are thinking about a few specific topics that are currently making the rounds. Libra Sept 23 - Oct 22 That which affects you indirectly is likely to be more memorable than anything else. A friend offers you a bonus of sorts. Scorpio Oct 23 - Nov 21 Your dedication to the cause will be on display all day long. Others are sure to sign up simply because you're involved. Sagittarius Nov 22 - Dec 21 Your dreams are quite lofty, yet you must still remain firmly on the ground to complete the tasks you said you would. Capricorn Dec 22 - Jan 19 You may be wondering why others are keeping their distance -- until you realize just what kind of vibe you're giving off. Aquarius Jan 20 - Feb 18 Follow instructions. Later, you'll be able to let your imagination take hold and try what comes more naturally. Pisces Feb 19 - March 20 You are ready to give another the help he or she truly needs -- or perhaps it is simply that you're ready to step out of your comfort zone.
