Horoscope

Aries (March 21-April 19) •••• You feel on top of your game, ready for the innate fun and conviviality of the holidays. Some of you might need to make calls before the phones are too busy. Others will put on holiday music.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) ••••• As the pace slows down or the holiday is on the horizon, stop and put your sweetie under the mistletoe. A long-overdue discussion cannot be avoided. It might be quite pleasant. Just remain open.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) ••••• Defer to others. You actually might be more relaxed about Santa’s arrival than many other people. Pitch in and help someone who could be overwhelmed. Realize what needs to happen.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) ••• Last-minute details could make the traditional Moon Child very busy and tired. How you handle someone could change quite a bit. Know when to say no. Someone obviously does care.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) ••••• Your childlike playfulness opens doors. Others simply love to see you like this. Make loved ones feel valued while being like a kid with children. In some manner, other than Santa, you are on center stage.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) •••• Stay close to home. You might not want to push someone too hard, especially if this person has a case of the bah-humbugs. As you loosen up, others will too. Let a child act out his or her feelings if he or she doesn’t have the words.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) ••••• Make calls and touch base with those you care about. If you want to hear or understand where a child is coming from, let chatter occur.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) ••• Last-minute details could have you very busy. Don’t worry if there was one issue you couldn’t shore up. Ask for help when you need it. A surprise is heading down your path.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) ••••• You smile, and all the people around you smile. Remain in touch with your feelings, and you will be able to deal with whatever heads down your path, though it won’t necessarily be difficult.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) ••• You might not feel energetic, but you have what it takes to make others smile. Do nothing halfway, and you will be pleased and OK within yourself. Communication could be packed with surprises.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) ••••• Don’t hesitate to zoom in and grab what you want. Listen to what others share, swap gifts and don’t forget what is really important. Choose to do nothing halfway. Stay on top of what needs to be done.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) •••• More responsibilities drop on you. Don’t question too deeply what is happening. Remain on top of your to-do list. If you are feeling tired, know that that is normal. You have pushed very hard to get to this point. Tonight: Plan on sharing cookies with Santa.
