Horoscope: Dec. 18

Aries (March 21-April 19): It seems you have piles of work while those around you have stretches of leisure. Reassign tasks to the next pair of idle hands you see.

Taurus (April 20-May 20): In a relationship, sometimes you must quietly put up with someone’s grumpiness in order to generally get along.

Gemini (May 21-June 21): You’ve skipped some of your reading time in favor of other work, and now it benefits you to try to make up for it.

Cancer (June 22-July 22): Some goals just can’t be accomplished in a year or even in five years. But don’t give up before you get to the goal.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Instead of going for perfection in one particular form, explore your potential by pushing forward in whatever areas seem pliable to your touch.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You’re not completely understanding someone’s contribution to a project, but you can tell there’s a definite thought process behind it.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): You’ll have contact with a group that has an entirely different set of customs from the ones you were brought up with. Learn all you can.

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): You can’t see how wonderful you’ll be. You can only see the example that others set. You’ll be magnificent in your own way.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You have so many activities going on that it will be challenging to know on what to concentrate. You like this kind of hubbub

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Taking responsibility is a step for evolved humans. However, blaming yourself for everything is immobilizing.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): A small social gesture will have a much bigger impact than you expect it to have.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): This is no time to stay in the middle of the road. Go to the edge. That’s where you can look out at all the possibilities.

Today’s birthday (Dec. 18): You’ll build something beautiful in 2011. If you also have a plan to maintain it, you will be truly happy. You’ll laugh with family and friends in December and January. Change your financial plan in March. Bonus money comes in May. August sees you going somewhere special with a loved one. Your lucky numbers are: 2, 14, 39, 7 and 19.
