Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): You’ll learn about yourself by objectively observing the way you interact with loved ones. You’re a witness to your own behavior. Understanding your nature connects you with others.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You spontaneously make the right choices. You don’t have to think about it. You just know where you’re supposed to be and what you’re supposed to say and say it joyfully.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): The day is a flurry of activity -- sharing, healing, laughing, eating -- and it all happens at the perfect moment.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Your personal magnetism swells right along with your quick intelligence. You can solve any problem, avert any crisis and please a room full of people by just being yourself.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Your generosity will be much appreciated, especially because it represents a spiritual bigness. You take the time to listen to others and deliver just the kind of attention they can most appreciate.
Today’s birthday (Dec. 25): You have a talent with words, and you’ll choose the specific ones that open doors, create loving bonds and encourage lucrative business. January ends a pesky problem for good. March features a family responsibility. In April, the charitable work you do will lead to new relationships and increased influence. Cancer and Virgo people adore you. Your lucky numbers are 50, 11, 5, 43 and 14.
