Happy birthday for Wednesday, Dec. 31, 2008:

You often weave between two different attitudes this year. Sometimes you are the traditional Goat who wants what he or she wants, with an eye to material issues. Other times, the quality of communication evolves to a new high, so much so that you might sign up for a class in communicating. You easily could make a major life decision this year, which will determine a good part of the next few years. If you are single, you meet people with ease; however, get to know the apple of your eye well before making a commitment. If attached, the two of you create a new venue for sharing what you both enjoy. Pisces draws you out and likes to hang with you.

Aries (March 21-April 19) •••• Use the daylight hours to the max. A sense of fatigue or a need to reflect heads in late in the afternoon. Consider what is happening openly. You could have a second thought about a job or community appearance.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) ••• Step up to the plate. You might want to handle last-minute details and problems. Once you have completed what is needed, kick back with friends or those who surround you. Share resolutions and help others make them.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) •••• If you need to make New Year calls, get a head start on them. You can also send e-cards to others. Starting the year with this type of exchange can only make people feel good, you included.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) •••• A partner finally could be direct. You might need to shake your head at what you hear. You could decide not to react. In fact, that would be a great idea. Detach rather than react.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) ••••• Be on top of your game, especially with a partner. You could be surprised by what might emerge out of the blue. Know that you don’t need to react immediately.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) ••• Once more, are you wondering why you are left holding the bag? Can you stop this pattern? A child or potential loved one reveals a lot. Remember to think rather than react. Be gracious no matter what you are hearing.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) •••• Let your creativity flow. What might have been a hassle with a family member or a domestic matter finally seems to move – only you might not be instantly happy. Make that OK, and relax with the situation.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) ••• Stay close to home, and if you must work, try to work from home. Do only what you must. Where communication has been stilted, things finally open up. Let it happen.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) •••• Keep communication flowing. A hard realization might encourage a change of plans, but on your terms. Remember, no one can take better care of yourself than you. Give someone the benefit of the doubt.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) •••• Expenses might have you concerned. Before you do anything else, stop and decide what needs to happen. You are on top of your game; explain where you are coming from. Keep communication flowing.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) •••• Use the daylight hours, when you are on top of your game. An issue that you have been holding in finally opens up. You might not want to deal with the problem immediately, but you will ultimately.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) •••• Perhaps it’s time to clear out the negativity that is coloring your thinking. Knowing your limits could be more important than you realize. A friendship or relationship takes a fast twist. Suddenly you are on a different road.
