Horoscope

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Wednesday, Dec. 23, 2009: This year, unexpected events often occur. Part of the purpose of this disruption is to point to what area of your life is no longer functional. If single, you draw many different people to you. If attached, the two of you need to charge your life together, or else you could cause a major disruption to your bond. Pisces thinks you make a great buddy.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) •••• In some fashion, you might feel as if you are in the midst of your last hurrah. Could this be true? No way. But as the week fades, fatigue marks your behavior.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) ••••• Zero in on what you want. Don’t sell yourself short. If you don’t put out what you want, you won’t have as much of a chance to make it so.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) •••• A must appearance allows you to show off. You know what you want and what to expect. Listen to your instincts regarding a relative.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) ••••• Put on a favorite piece of music as you finish off holiday details. You will have a lot to smile about. Reach out to those at a distance who are special.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) ••••• Work with others directly. Your attention is greatly appreciated, more than you know. Start delivering packages or holiday thoughts, as time is running short.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) ••••• Continue to let another person remain dominant – that is, if you would like to get the closeness and trust you want. Nevertheless, the unexpected sends lightning bolts in your direction.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) ••• Easy works, especially as there are so many people pushing hard. Don’t let the frenzy get the best of you; keep your sense of the Christmas spirit.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) •••• Others want and need your attention. Your restful behavior adds smiles to your life. The unexpected pops. You can get stuck and uncomfortable or you can get into the moment.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) ••• Spend more time at home dealing with different issues. You could be uncomfortable having to remain in one spot so long. When you decide to split, it might be hard to contain you.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) •••• You could be surprised by what happens. Whatever feels right will be how you respond. A child or loved one could surprise you. Enjoy the moment rather than try to control what is uncontrollable.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) •••• Last-minute expenses could be inordinately expensive if you move too quickly and/or don’t stop to think. Everyone has limits, you included. Honor your budget.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) ••••• You could surprise people with your actions and decisions. Maintain a high profile, and don’t let a momentary or passing upset get the best of you.
