Horoscope: December 23, 2015

Your stars today

Aries | March 20 – April 19



If you’re a typical Aries, being told by others that your future plans need to be more detailed is nothing new. Ironically, judging by the current frequent and often disruptive changes, you’re better off. Certainly, with your less complicated plans, you’ve had no problem riding out those twists and turns.

Taurus | April 20 – May 20



Although the Full Moon doesn’t actually take place until Friday, you may already be experiencing the heightened feelings it triggers. While some may be unsettling, those that remind you how much certain individuals mean to you are of far greater importance. These matter now but will be of particular significance over the coming days.

Gemini | May 21 – June 20



The Sun has only just moved into one of the most practical angles of your chart, beginning a month long cycle during which you’ll focus on these matters. While many are already on your mind, some seem urgent. Still, tackle them slowly. That way, you’ll deal with them once, and properly.

Cancer | June 21 – July 22



There are days when listening is far more important than offering your thoughts or ideas. At the moment, however, it’s the reverse. Say exactly what’s on your mind, especially if it involves encouraging others and their new ideas. You may think they’ve heard it all before. Now, however, such support is crucial.

Leo | July 23 – August 22



While it’s true, at one point certain family matters weren’t especially pressing, now they are. Enough that you’re urged to give the necessary discussions and resulting tasks priority. Ironically, having put these off for so long, many of the issues involved have already resolved themselves, leaving you less to deal with.

Virgo | August 23 – September 22



Obviously getting anything organised when you’re short of facts is difficult. However, with the foundation on which the situations in question are based shifting, reliable information is in short supply. The solution? Rely on your intuition. You don’t always trust it. Here’s a chance to learn more about it.

Libra | September 23 – October 22



Few things are worse than watching those you care about battle over differences that really aren’t worth the bother. Tempting as it is to tell them that, you’d only confuse matters. Worse, if you get involved, the individuals in question could soon blame you for issues you had nothing to do with.

Scorpio | October 23 – November 21



You’re capable of being amazingly patient when there’s good reason to. But when you suspect others are wasting your time, you can become exasperated very quickly indeed. Now, however, while one particular individual may be taking forever to get around to anything, the results will be worth waiting for.

Sagittarius | November 22 – December 21



While some decisions are all about facts, certain of those currently on your mind respond more to gentle persuasion. Although you might make progress with those now, you’re better off waiting until the 30th, when the planet that’s all about charm, Venus, moves into Sagittarius. After that, you’ll be irresistible.

Capricorn | December 22 – January 19



Not only has the Sun just moved into your sign, the coming Full Moon both heightens your emotions and accents close relationships, personal and otherwise. Unsettling as the resulting changes, encounters and feelings may be, if you delve into them, they could draw you closer to those who matter most.

Aquarius | January 20 – February 17



Generally, you prefer to deal with issues when they arise. You’ll tackle those you know how to handle right away and will investigate others, then take action based on what you learn. But a few will be so mystifying you’ve no idea what to do. For now, the answer is: absolutely nothing.

Pisces | February 18 – March 19



Don’t be surprised if you’re on edge. The atmosphere is already uneasy, and when you add the emotionally heightened mood prior to the Full Moon, life’s a like a pressure cooker. Knowing that, try not to take the brusque words of others or any upsets too much to heart.
