Horoscope: Dec. 21

Aries (March 21-April 19): If you feel that you keep repeating the same behavior over and over again, today provides just the pattern interruption you need.

Taurus (April 20-May 20): It’s not about finding the right person for you; it’s about being the right person for you. Give yourself a treat to show your love. Nothing fancy is necessary.

Gemini (May 21-June 21): The shift in consciousness that you need is not difficult to make. Rather, it’s so easy that you might call it fun. Just do what you want to do.

Cancer (June 22-July 22): If you want to get results, you have to be the squeaky wheel. Normally, you are too cool to take this approach, but there are times when being cool is overrated.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): A lull in the action comes at the perfect moment. Now you can sit back and figure out how to make the most of the recent turn of events.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Because of your charm, grace and charisma, you’ll be in a position to keep the social brew bubbling.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): You’ll be in a position to learn about others. You’ll ask questions and focus intently on the answers.

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): While someone you know is dreaming about tomorrow, you’ll be busy making today worth remembering.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You might miss while trying something today; it’s to be expected for someone still learning. Keep trying; you’ll get it.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You sync up with nature in some way, perhaps by connecting with an animal or getting out into the open air. There is a deep feeling of contentment within you.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You may feel compelled to tell your side of a story because the other sides seem riddled with half-truths. If you must say your piece, leave quickly afterward.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Your sign can change moods as quickly as a chameleon changes colors. But today you’ll be in a state of mind that you want to hang on to for as long as possible.

Today’s birthday (Dec. 21): The year starts off on a streak of financial luck. New people come into your life in January. You land in peculiar circumstances in February and find a way to shine. May brings fun dates. July brings travel. Cancer and Aries people adore you. Your lucky numbers are 9, 4, 20, 22 and 19.
