Your daily horoscope: December 22, 2024

HOROSCOPES IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY

Get serious about your ambitions and start making those small but necessary changes that will help clear a path from where you are now to where you most want to be. A succession of measured steps will add up to a massive leap forward.

ARIES (March 21 – April 20):

You may feel super confident at the moment but you would be wise not to take on anyone whose power and influence is greater than your own. While your ruling planet Mars is moving retrograde it will be easy to overestimate your abilities.

TAURUS (April 21 – May 21):

If you visualize where you would like to be six months or even a year from now it will give you a target to aim for and to work toward. Just because it’s the end of the year does not mean you cannot start something new.

GEMINI (May 22 – June 21):

Something you have spent ages trying to resolve will take care of itself over the next few days. No doubt you will be relieved but you may also be annoyed when you realize how simple the solution was. How did you miss it?

CANCER (June 22 – July 23):

If someone you think of as a rival starts being nice to you this week then no doubt you will be suspicious, but the planets indicate they genuinely want to work with you towards a mutual goal. Put your doubts on hold and meet them halfway.

LEO (July 24 – Aug. 23):

You will be on the go from the crack of dawn until well after the sun sets over the next few days but you must also schedule some down time along the way. Not even a livewire Leo can keep up this kind of pace forever.

VIRGO (Aug. 24 – Sept. 23):

Watch what words you allow to come out of your mouth this week, because if you say the wrong thing you could hurt someone’s feelings and turn them against you. It may be an offhand remark to you but to them it could be insulting.

It may feel as if you have lost ground to your rivals but don’t worry about it because there will be plenty of time to catch up in the new year. In fact it may work in your favor in that you are still fresh while they are exhausted.

LIBRA (Sept. 24 – Oct. 23):

There is no point wasting your breath on someone whose opinions you find childish at best and offensive at worst. You won’t change their point of view and, of course, they won’t change yours, so put some distance between you and leave it at that.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24 – Nov. 22):

Having been at the centre of things of late it may come as a shock that you now have to let other people take their turn in the spotlight but you can’t be top dog forever. With less attention on you it may actually be easier to succeed.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 – Dec. 21):

You must steer clear of negative feelings over the next few days, because once you allow them to get a grip it will take a huge effort to shake them off again. Whatever occurs just see it as part of the bigger plan for a better world.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 – Jan. 20):

Were you wrong to place your trust in someone whose way with words persuaded you to back them? Maybe, but the planets suggest you should give them a bit more time because they could be about to deliver the goods in a big way.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 – Feb. 19):

The bigger the ideas you have this week the more you will want to shout about them, but don’t be too eager. The less others know about what you are planning the less excuses you will have to make if you have to change those plans later on.
