Daily Horoscope December 21, 2011

Aries: Perhaps it is not that you are crazy, a pioneer, or risk taker. Perhaps you just see & do what others deny or avoid doing.

Taurus: Those who drag their feet or oppose you now get a glimpse of that famous Taurus stubbornness & persistence. Driven.

Gemini: Too much sensory input & demands on your time may make you irritable. Nature, a hot tub, sauna, or swim helps relax you.

Cancer: Improvised creativity or group accomplishment is inspired by a heavy work load or other constraints - like stone soup.

Leo: Money may be spent on home & family needs today. Disce
ment & practical considerations affect spending choices.

Virgo: You are busy with last minute holiday calls, chores, errands & visits. You will need extra vitamins, caffeine & patience!

Libra: Forgotten money or hidden sources of income could be revealed now. Instead of thinking "have not", think "have".

Scorpio: Words of encouragement to or from friends increases emotional security. Emphasize the importance of an intention.

Sagittarius: The motivation behind work is important to you. You may strive to do or give more to benefit people in need.

Capricorn: You may have to make personal adjustments for diversity or quickly learn about the social customs if visiting a new place.

Aquarius: Catch up on bills, work, business obligations. Something you've been avoiding or postponing can't wait much longer.

Pisces: Your inner critic or complainer either attracts criticism & complaints from others or makes you the critic or kvetch.

The moon in the fixed water sign of sensitive, secretive, controlling Scorpio forms a supportive sextile to action oriented Mars in particular, detail oriented Virgo. Even though a sextile is a benign aspect, the blending of these planets and energy signatures can be interesting, indeed! Expect some fussiness, criticism and control issues to pop up today. On the positive side, the urgency of necessity may force action that may not be pleasant in nature, but is ultimately cathartic. Relief follows quickly when you confront anything you have been avoiding. Whether this energy is experienced on the physical, emotional, or spiritual levels for you individually depends on where he moon and Mars happen to be transiting your natal chart. Nine of the twelve signs of the zodiac wheel now have a planet in their sign. The planets in the zodiac wheel currently look like a string of beads on a necklace as most of them form minor aspects, linking them together, one after the other. Energy is potent and intense as this train of planets moves you ahead toward the holidays. You do not have to be an observer of Christmas to feel that something is special about this week. As you get closer to both the solstice point and the new moon of the 24th, and the arrival of the new year, the anticipation of a chance to establish a new beginning increases intensity in all areas of your life.
