Madalyn Aslan writes: Harry Potter author JK Rowling and Harry Potter actor Daniel Radcliffe were both born Leos, on July 31, 1965 and on July 23, 1989. Even stranger is the fact that JK Rowling and Danielle Radcliffe are both Gemini-Jupiter, meaning they share the same kind of LUCK. Where is your Jupiter? How do you get lucky? As of today, there are only 26 more days of Jupiter in dramatic Leo. Leo was born to seize centre stage and hold it for all it's worth! I predict that when Jupiter moves into the more modest and sober Virgo on August 27, exaggerations and colourful cover-ups worldwide will have less luck. Let's see what truth-telling Virgo-Jupiter does to our governments at home.

Happy Birthday!
Geri Halliwell (Leo born August 6, 1972) Leos love to be the centre of attention. They are autocratic, fiercely proud and ooze confidence. All true of Geri Halliwell who turns 31 on Wednesday. But the lioness has a flip side too - a personality that hates small-mindedness, can charm and beguile, support and give affection in equal measure. The next 12 months will find Geri, and many other Leos, seeking out a caring challenge which will put her other valuable powers of creativity and stubbornness to the test.
Happy birthday also to: Tomorrow August 3; Tony Bennett (77), Shirley Manson (37) and Martin Sheen (63), Monday August 4; Yasser Arafat (74) and Billy Bob Thornton (48), Tuesday August 5; Neil Armstrong (73), Wednesday August 6; Freddie Laker (81), Thursday August 7; Bruce Dickinson (45) and David Duchovny (43), Friday August 8; Princess Beatrice (15) and Dustin Hoffman (66).
