26 MIDWEEK DECEMBER 7, 2022
RELEASE DATE—Sunday, December 4, 2022 RELEASE DATE—Sunday, December 4, 2022
Energies shift this week and make us more practical in the areas of love and communication. Let your heart sing — or maybe just hum along.
SAGITTARIUS (NOVEMBER23-DECEMBER22)
Whatever money issues you may be facing, you seem to be able to better chart your fiscal course and meet future demands. Sagittarians are generous, sometimes to a fault, but you now have greater confidence in your ability to make it, give it and take it. Get creative and research. Plant your nest egg now for a fluffy future.
CAPRICORN (DECEMBER23-JANUARY20)
Put on your thinking cap, Capricorn, and find new ways to get into the epicenter of all of the action. Your mission now is to expand your circle of influence and make sure that you are involved in important decisions. Your mind is sharp and you can also get an emotional connection to certain people and personal causes.
AQUARIUS (JANUARY21-FEBRUARY19)
You will be amazed at your ability to read a room and know who you need to convince and who is currently on your side. This power of perception is sharper than usual and can lead you to great new insights into how you can best focus your efforts on the essentials, avoiding unexpected pitfalls. Success follows, Aquarius.
PISCES (FEBRUARY20-MARCH20)
Get into the center of the social scene, Pisces. This is the time to fully engage with others and join new groups or organizations. There will be some in your orbit who are lured into your gravitational pull. You get a lot from interacting on a variety of levels. Focus on the new year and a new you with a new special set of friends and fans.
ARIES (MARCH21-APRIL20)
Focus more on your career or any long-term plans, Aries. There are many moving parts that can impact your ultimate direction and success. Follow your heart as well as your mind and be sure to seek trusted mentors whose advice will help you along your path. There is time to mark your course more forcefully and win big.
TAURUS (APRIL 21-MAY 21)
You are ready for a big adventure, Taurus. It has been too long. The world continues to open up to you and there are many opportunities to expand your reach and influence — or just greatly enjoy yourself. If you have been hankering to learn something new or otherwise explore and expand your vision, now is the time to do it.
GEMINI (MAY22-JUNE21)
Your heart loves large and your mind is aflame with passion, Gemini.
At least that is what the cosmos are saying. Don’t sit back and wait for
a knock on your door. Go forth and see what the possibilities are for enhancing your quest for deeper connection. Channel your intensities into something that ultimately brings you joy and peace.
CANCER (JUNE22-JULY23)
There will be some relationships that need more attention, Cancer. Now you can find where you need to apply a little tender, loving care and where a bit of good practical application will work wonders. Reinforce connections, even those that you may think are irreparable or not really worth it. You really never know.
LEO (JULY24-AUGUST23)
If you have been fatigued or feeling little aches and pains, find ways to address any symptoms now, Leo. Don’t let anything drag you down. You have great capacity. Maybe it all requires rest, exercise or a doctor’s visit. Attend to anything that has been getting you down and find ways to relax, recharge and rejuvenate.
VIRGO (AUGUST24-SEPTEMBER23)
Your mind is especially active now, Virgo. Not only do you have creative ideas, but you are also inspired to do things that lighten the mood, create beauty and harmony, and just have fun. Find more ways to simply enjoy life. Host a few parties, explore music or art, or just curl up with a good book or excite a quiet romance.
LIBRA (SEPTEMBER24-OCTOBER23)
Family matters bring certain issues closer to your heart, Libra. Reach out and connect with those who make your life special and wonderful. You can establish a greater emotional connection with those with whom you might have lost touch. This is a great time for establishing plans for the upcoming holiday and new year.
SCORPIO (OCTOBER24-NOVEMBER22)
Your ability to communicate is even sharper than usual, Scorpio. Anything that gets your heart and mind to sing should be explored and mined
for gems. Find ways to express yourself and get your best ideas on the planning board. There are opportunities to gain greater success and make your future path more energized and focused.
