30 MIDWEEK DECEMBER 8, 2021
RELEASE DATE—Sunday, December 5, 2021 RELEASE DATE—Sunday, December 5, 2021
BY MADAM LICHTENSTEIN
The cosmos send our love in entirely new directions. Will we focus in on what and who we really want, or go love-struck gaga? Let’s just see.
SAGITTARIUS (NOVEMBER23-DECEMBER22)
Money flows almost effortless now, Sagittarius, as you may feel awash in possibilities and dreams. It may mean that you can truly enjoy your lavish spending, or it may mean that you can waste too much to get too little. Step back and see if what you want and what you purchase gives you everything you expect and deserve.
CAPRICORN (DECEMBER23-JANUARY20)
You command everyone’s attention, Capricorn, as your charisma and charm is high. Your allure seems to attract anyone you want. Your challenge now is to decide where you want to be and who you want there with you. The dizzying array of possibilities may be confusing. Big plans can be put into action. What is your next big move?
AQUARIUS (JANUARY21-FEBRUARY19)
Your intuition may go into overdrive for a few weeks, Aquarius, and that may spark passions and a quest for the ultimate love. Find ways to carefully explore your dreams and see if any of it is based in reality. Then take the next steps. Acts of kindness can take you far so consider channeling your energies into charity and goodness.
PISCES (FEBRUARY20-MARCH20)
Your social life just swished into a swirl as people from all types of backgrounds angle to get next to you. How can you choose from such a delightful assortment of friends and acquaintances? Find ways to match interests and see who is a best fit for you in the long term.
ARIES (MARCH21-APRIL20)
There may be someone in your career universe that seems to capture your heart, Aries. Examine what is causing this shift in your romantic landscape and whether it is based on clear or foggy thinking. Let your emotions take their course as you figure out what is really going on. Once the dreamy dust has settled, you will make all the right moves.
TAURUS (APRIL 21-MAY 21)
If you are planning on any travel, pack a bit of common sense, Taurus. An exotic stranger can sweep you off your feet and make you feel mushy, sentimental and anxious for connection. Try to take all attention and compliments in stride. Then, step back to see how it can all work for you.
GEMINI (MAY22-JUNE21)
Even flirty Gemini can go overboard in a quest for love now. Someone not only captures your heart but also tries to carry it around with them. Try not to let yourself be led around. Allow yourself time to consider every offer of love and passion. Big secret: You have plenty of time to choose and decide, although it may not seem that way now.
CANCER (JUNE22-JULY23)
Relationships not only heat up but they can also go into overdrive, Cancer. How close do you want to get to a certain someone? Does this partnership have the give and take you need? Once you have a chance to sit back and review the dynamics of a situation, you will be in a great position to make the best decision for you.
LEO (JULY24-AUGUST23)
Once you are back in the office, the question becomes, “Will office relationships change?”You will find that out soon, Leo, as your passion
for connection may change the work day dynamics. Whatever drives your interests and capabilities may cause you to refocus and maybe even redirect your goals.
VIRGO (AUGUST24-SEPTEMBER23)
Not only is fun more exhilarating, but it will also take you to new creative heights. Allow your artistry full range and try some new things that may take you out of your comfort zone. But know when you have taken on too much at one time, Virgo. You are naturally organized and methodical so try to keep your passionate pastimes a bit controllable.
LIBRA (SEPTEMBER24-OCTOBER23)
Family matters may take on a heightened emotional feel now, Libra. Everyone wants to be with you. Everyone seems to want something from you. Know your personal limits and take a diplomatic approach when these “asks”get to be excessive. Otherwise, you will find yourself pulled in too many directions. Stay on your own course.
SCORPIO (OCTOBER24-NOVEMBER22)
No matter how coy and unassuming you strive to be now, Scorpio, there
is something about you and the way you communicate that gets people impassioned. Maybe it’s your intensity or maybe it’s your inner knowledge and aplomb. Use this talent to your advantage and find ways to reach people with the intent to change hearts and minds. You can do it.
