Today's philosophical Sagittarius Moon can put us in a contemplative mood as we try to understand how our lives fit into the larger picture. Although the Moon in Sagittarius can expand our vision of life and encourage us to laugh as we aspire toward the greater good, we are still in an intense phase. Powerful Pluto joined the Sun on Monday and conjuncts Mars on Sunday, creating an underlying tone of transformational change that doesn't let up all week.
Aries You could get swept off your feet today by someone who is just a friend, but now you see him or her in a new light. Although you may allow yourself to run away with your own fantasy for a while, this attraction might best be left unrealized. No matter where this sudden attraction leads (or doesn't), enjoy a bit of lighthearted play to spice up your day.
Taurus You may find pleasure in unexpected activities today, so don't be too inflexible as you respond to others. Your impulse is to reject a change to your plans before you even know what the suggestion is. Withhold your reaction until you have heard the entire story and then go out of your way to find a gem in what's said, even if you aren't thrilled by the idea. Everyone will be happier if you encourage what's positive, rather than criticizing the negative.
Gemini If aspects of your day seem beyond your control, don't waste your energy trying to change the course of events. You might believe that everything will be better once it's going the way you want. But you are more adaptable than you realize, so don't let your feelings of insecurity overrule your common sense. Ultimately, you'll have more fun floating with the prevailing currents than attempting to alter their direction.
Cancer This holiday season continues to be challenging for you because someone who is usually willing to do things your way might now appear to be fighting you. But upon closer examination, this isn't what's really happening. Take responsibility for your share of the conflict, even if you're not telling others exactly how you feel. What you don't say can stir up as strong an emotional response in a friend or family member as what you express openly.
Leo Although there may be intense feelings swirling around your environment, you have chosen not to acknowledge them so they don't get in the way of a festive day. There may be a problem with this path as a long-term strategy, yet it might be exactly what is needed to get you and your family through the tricky currents of the day.
Virgo No matter how hard you worked to make this a perfect day, something will go awry and catch you off guard. You may respond out of character as you strive to make today memorable. Instead of focusing your laser beam mind onto narrow bands of reality, you truly want to open up and take it all in. Perhaps your advanced planning enables you to feel comfortable about anything that happens now because you know that you did all that you could.
Libra It's not unlike you to take on more than you should, especially if you are trying to make others feel at ease and enjoy their holiday. Keep in mind that this year can be different; you can be the perfect host/hostess and also take care of your own needs. No one will fault you for choosing to scale back a little, so give yourself permission not to go overboard with unnecessary extravagance.
Scorpio If you feel as if there's a little less to go around this holiday season, you might overcompensate and turn today into an extravaganza. But this strategy won't necessarily make anyone else feel better; it's just about covering your feelings of guilt. Instead of pretending that everything is the same as every other year, acknowledge the differences. Embracing and sharing the truth is the greatest gift of all.
Sagittarius Your moods are all over the map today and your attempts to rein in your emotions will only make you feel even more out of control. You can tell that profound shifts are on the way, yet you also know that you don't want to face them now. Putting off the inevitable for a few days is a smart idea as long as you don't fall into the trap of believing you can escape the impending changes.
Capricorn Your fantasies can take you on a wild ride today and it can be a lot of fun as long as you don't mistake them for the truth. The problem is that you can become so caught up in your reverie that it feels as if fate is intervening and changing everything right before your eyes. Be careful, for this is merely another facet of your daydream. Bring yourself back to reality so you can enjoy what is, rather than what isn't.
Aquarius It's hard to relax if you keep thinking that everything could fall apart any moment, yet that's what the Moon's square to unstable Uranus is telling you. It's not the temporary chaos that causes problems; it's your fear of the instability. If you hold on too tightly to your illusions, they are bound to become brittle and crack under pressure. But if you allow them to ebb and flow, they will flex with the external changes and become revitalized in the process.
Pisces Although it may feel as if you are holding on to the last vestiges of reality, your dreams are growing in strength and could temporarily overwhelm you. Being caught up in a beautiful fantasy -- romantic or spiritual -- can be an ecstatic experience, one that should be thoroughly enjoyed. But you'll need to find a way to overcome your fear of temporarily letting go. Don't worry; even if you float away, you'll land safely back on shore soon enough. |
