For All Signs Readers have asked me how to understand their horoscope message if I refer to a “significant other” and they do not have a lover. Astrologically, a “significant other” can be a spouse, a lover, a business partner, an important consultant, or one’s closest friend. References to the “significant other” can also include business clientele or audience for those on stage or in proprietorships.
Aries Between now and Dec. 16th keep your general profile quiet and behind the scenes. This is a good time to finish projects that have been in the works for several months. A shift in direction is just around the corner for you, so get plenty of rest and finish your holiday shopping early.
Taurus Someone may step on toes that are still painful from previous wounds. It is important that you recognize what belongs to the past and not drag it into the present situation. An alternative possibility is that you accidentally run into a friend’s old bruises.
Gemini There is considerable emphasis for a few weeks on the subjects of debt, investments, management of other people’s resources, and a need to consider your long term financial planning. Projects you begin during this period are likely to require much longer than you anticipate.
Cancer The full moon occurs this week and its position suggests you may be feeling isolated and unloved. Surely by now you know that you have these moods that come and go. So no matter how you feel, it will change in a couple of days. It is easier to observe it than to ride.
Leo The Lion is generous of heart and during this period is likely to spend megabucks. If you have financial concerns, leave the credit cards at home when you shop. Make a resolution to really enjoy your holiday and let everyone take part the preparations this year.
Virgo You are feeling bright, cheery, and optimistic. You really want to deck the halls this year for the holidays. Upcoming plans concerning children and/or lovers may be in flux, but you are in a flexible frame of mind and can handle almost anything right now.
Libra A concern about work or fears about your security may threaten to dampen your spirits. Don’t let it cause you to withdraw or turn away from those who would love and support you. Open your eyes to what you can do to help others and it will lift the blues.
Scorpio Relationships to lovers, children, and/or family members may be fraught with confusion and misunderstandings this week. You can help by concentrating on clarity of communications, both outgoing and incoming. Minor problems with household mechanical gear are possible.
Sagittarius A project begun last summer arrives at a turning point. It may require a tweak or two, but overall it is looking favorable. Invest a bit more and go for it. It will take longer than you expect. The outcome should be apparent in approximately three months.
Capricorn Circumstances may interfere with your social life and cause you to feel alone or isolated this week. Catch up on business and other necessities, because you are soon headed into a whirlwind of fun activity. Don’t listen to the inner critic who wants to find fault with you.
Aquarius There are so many demands upon your energy that you may become drained. Avoid this situation because you are in a minor physical dip. Opportunistic viruses may find you if you are focused too heavily on making everyone else happy and not giving priority care to yourself as well.
Pisces Use the next 10 days to finish projects that involve heavy physical labor and bring at least moderate conclusions to activities begun since June. You have a temptation to indulge in vices that you have been fighting for quite awhile, but it is short-lived.
