Happy birthday for Tuesday, Oct. 15, 2024: You are charming with stylish, good taste. You are also warm and generous to others. This year is about service for you — very likely, service to family. Therefore, take care of yourself so you can be a support to others. Is it time for a makeover?

Aries (March 21-April 19): This is a romantic, passionate day! You also feel generous; in particular, you might feel concerned for the welfare of those who are less fortunate, especially animals. (You are an animal lover.) A surprise about something you own or your finances might occur. Tonight: You win!

Taurus (April 20-May 20): Relations with others are flirtatious today! A new romance might begin. A platonic relationship could turn romantic. Someone unusual might appeal to you, or you might be introduced to someone new, especially through a group. Many scintillating opportunities are hovering around today. Tonight: Enjoy solitude.

Gemini (May 21-June 20): Relations with a boss or someone in authority might surprise you today. This could be due to an unexpected flirtation or a sexy attraction. (Probably work-related.) How you handle this is your choice, but don’t do anything you might later regret. Tonight: Friendships.

Cancer (June 21-July 22): Travel plans might suddenly change today. Or perhaps you will suddenly have to travel when you didn’t expect to do so.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): An unexpected gift or favor from someone might benefit you, your home or a family member today. It could be a gift that makes your home more attractive. It also might be an unexpected romantic attraction to someone. Today is full of all kinds of swoon-worthy opportunities! Tonight: Explore!

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You’ll enjoy communicating to others today. However, the real reason that your communications with others will be pleasant is that you are in a good frame of mind. You’re happier and more inclined to see beauty in your surroundings. (This is a gift.) Tonight: Check your finances.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): In astrology, each sign has domain over different aspects of the world. Libra rules the law. It also rules haute couture. (This is why so many lawyers are well dressed.)

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): You might spend time today in a fantasy world. You can also use your imagination in a creative way as well. Meanwhile, you have compassion for those who are less fortunate. Be careful about kidding yourself about a “soul mate” connection, which could be a delusion. Tonight: Get organized.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): This morning you might consider playing hooky or hiding at home. You want to kick back and relax. However, as the day wears on, you will feel increasingly sociable and eager to enjoy sports events, playful times with kids, the arts and socializing. Tonight: Socialize!

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today you feel tenderhearted to a friend, and if you can help this person, you will. Possibly, you will channel this energy into working for a charitable organization. Whatever the case, you have genuine concerns for those who are less fortunate. Tonight: Cocoon.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You make a marvelous impression on others today, especially bosses, parents, teachers and VIPs.

Tonight: Discussions.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Travel plans or a chance to do something different will appeal to you today. In part, this is because your appreciation of beauty is heightened, and you would love to see beautiful places and the arts and crafts of other countries. You also might appreciate these wonders closer to home. Tonight: Check your money.
