ARIES – Keep it light this month. Emotions may be somewhat volatile and can get out of control easily. By the end of the month, this energy dissipates.

TAURUS – Focus your attention on the needs of others. It is the best cure-all for our own difficult days. Helping helps you most. Resist the desire to hibernate.

GEMINI – Do your research. Once you are confident of the answers, it will be time to act and there will be less resistance and more acceptance.

CANCER – If you want to stop repeating the past, you have to take a big, scary leap toward something new. It is a choice. Stay or go.

LEO – Just keep doing what you are doing. Success is building and you will be celebrating that success soon. You are on the right track.

VIRGO – The first of the year starts out with changes. There is nothing to fear. Most of these are brought about by your own ideas and design.

LIBRA – Keep moving. It is not time to retreat just now. There’s more to do and it will be worth it. You are almost where you want to be.

SCORPIO – It is time for some rest and relaxation. Recharge and spend quiet time alone or with a select few. Do not prolong the holiday atmosphere. You have had enough.

SAGITTARIUS – Express your ideas slowly and mindfully so that they will be accepted by others. It will never work if you try to force changes on someone else. Be patient.

CAPRICORN – Do not be discouraged if you don’t receive recognition from the powers that be. Your own acknowledgement and encouragement is far more important. Others will eventually respond to it.

AQUARIUS – Gather your thoughts. They have been all over the place. Focus on the question or problem and allow the answer to come.

PISCES – My goodness. Your capacity for worry has gone off the charts. Breathe and take things one at a time. All will be accomplished and everything will work out.
