Trust that when one door closes, another will open.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Put work and worries out of your mind. What you cannot change or have no control over must not be allowed to ruin end-of-year festivities. Someone will offer you an interesting alternative when least expected. Reconnect with friends.

Refrain from making an impulsive donation and offering expensive gifts in order to make a good impression.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Staying home will help keep you grounded during the festive season. Venturing too far will not bring the happiness you expect. Getting on top of what needs to be done by keeping your life simple will be in your best interest.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Emotions will escalate if you let someone you don’t get along with get to you. Say less and do more. Let your actions speak for you, and you will be admired for your diplomacy and maturity. Someone special will reward you later.
