Upon waking up, have a moment of gratitude and give thanks for another day to be productive. Take a deep breath and, as you go about your day, surround yourself with positive people that help you grow. Listen to the voice within that guides you, and the vision that allows you to see without questioning the source. Allow this new energy to end old and outdated ways of thinking and operating, as you step into your higher calling. You possess a natural talent, gift, craft that you bring to the table. Tap in to find out what it is. “I started out giving thanks for small things, and the more thankful I became, the more my bounty increased. That’s because what you focus on expands, and when you focus on the goodness in your life, you create more of it. “Opportunities, relationships, even money flowed my way when I learned to be grateful no matter what happened in my life.” Oprah Winfrey

Capricorn: Happy Solar return, Cappy! The last 2½ years have been tedious, tremendous, and unforgettable, taking your breath away. The Sun and Mercury are now in your sign, shining the light on you and your ventures. Be clear in your approach and set a projected date for completion. This is your week to stand tall for what you believe and feel while listening to your intuition. Make a decision related to family concerns and do what’s in your best interest before serving them and others. “The appearance of things changes according to the emotions, and thus we see magic and beauty in them, while the magic and beauty are really in ourselves.” Kahlil Gibran

Aquarius: Go near a water body, take a bath, have a warm or cold shower, or soak your feet as another way to connect, and close your eyes. Running cold water on your hands and face also aids in visualizing what you want. Pace yourself this week due to Jupiter and Saturn just entering your sign, forecasting 2 years of benevolent surprises and adding new adventures to your quest. Plan accordingly, due to things happening in a Tik-Tok fashion, until Jupiter and Saturn reach 3°. Then the clock strikes 12 indicating a go zone. Drink plenty of water and nurture your projects and plans as well as your immediate surroundings. “That’s the thing with magic. You’ve got to know it’s still here, all around us, or it just stays invisible for you.” Charles De Lint

Pisces: You may have a new attitude with a different perspective on life and how you operate this week. Stay motivated to stay the course, and you’ll see opportunities coming from all directions. This is your week to promote, show a sneak peek, do a favor for a favor, or hit the road. Take time for yourself to reflect and be your own best company. Whatever you do this week, keep it short, sweet, and to the point. “To speak gratitude is courteous and pleasant, to enact gratitude is generous and noble, but to live gratitude is to touch heaven.” Johannes A. Gaertner

Aries: Keep an eye out for any water leaks within the home or car, or for spilling things while searching or reaching for items. If you can, go to a pool for a swim or visit a warm, sunny beach; or mentally do so otherwise. Questions, along with self-doubt, may arise about a situation; solutions will be revealed if you have patience. Before you do something off-the-wall, think before you act since the consequences may be more than anticipated. “Life is playfulness… We need to play so that we can rediscover the magic all around us.” Flora Colao

Taurus: Any long-term investment that you put into motion shall prosper just before the year closes its doors. Be mindful of where you’re stepping or what you’re getting yourself into. Leave room for any unpredictable events or circumstances that may occur this week; also consider sticking to a routine of some sort and take notes of the information that’ll be coming your way. “Gratitude is the fairest blossom that springs from the soul.” Harry Ward Beecher

Gemini: The rest of this month may bring a desire to travel and relax, to spend time by yourself, or, perhaps, to start planning future endeavors. Write everything down that you want to accomplish in the coming year and be sure you date the day you plan to start and end. Do you see yourself receiving the blessing? Don’t question yourself: you are the creator of your faith and captain of your soul. Set a time to have a family fun night or day. “If the only prayer you said in your whole life was ‘Thank You’ that would suffice.” Master Eckhart

Cancer: Grab the bull by the horns this last week of the year and grab hold of your life. Take control of the things you’ve consumed, or they will destroy you. Take note of sudden news and insight into a situation that doesn’t serve your higher self. Let it go! Instead, work on building while setting the foundation and have pen and paper handy to jot down the details that keep you aligned with your vision. “Gratitude is riches. Complaint is poverty.” Doris Day

Leo: A sense of dollar, dollar bill reaching your account with a few family fun activities is on the schedule this week. If you have a clue about something, then go for it. Someone from your past may have an offer or a possible apology. An opportunity from a far distance to collaborate on a project may appear, if you’re interested. In a marriage or personal relationship? Things can get a bit intense with a hint of romance. Strive for the best of this week while walking the walk and talking that talk. A great cycle for your reputation, along with other forms of self-improvement. “If a fellow isn’t thankful for what he’s got he isn’t likely to be thankful for what he’s going to get.” Frank A Clark

Virgo: A conversation with a beautiful friend will spark an idea about a partnership or exploring different avenues for self-improvement or business-related matters. A heart-to-heart may come up that’ll reveal something you may have forgotten about, bringing closure. Are you fantasizing about someone and waiting to admit it or announce yourself? If anything, imagine or escape by yourself with a nice view of the sunset off the beach if possible. “Gratitude is the most exquisite form of courtesy.” Jacques Maritain

Libra: Sometimes it’s those times when things are going great, that all of a sudden a friend, family member, or neighbor needs support; you’re the one there, through thick and thin. The thing is, where are they when the going gets tough for you? Almost always, when things hit the fan, the only one you can count on is you. Understand: you’re building a new foundation, with new values heading in a new direction, and you can’t rescue every person that calls upon you for support. The past is the past. Learn from your experiences and carry on from there. “Start now. Enjoy the moment. It’s now or never.” Maxime Lagace

Scorpio: Sometimes, you have to check yourself before you wreck yourself. Be clear about what you want and stay the course. Someone may need advice on a particular matter. Now is the time to move forth with assertiveness on that vision you’ve held, by working on it to manifest that dream. Start honoring your feelings to free yourself of any setbacks or second thoughts. You know best what you can accomplish, so move with certainty, submit your request, and allow your ship to sail toward its destination for a return of investment. “In all affairs, it’s a healthy thing now and then to hang a question mark on the things you have taken for granted.” Bertrand Russell

Sagittarius: Good news is coming your way with new offers and responsibilities to handle. Make sure you know what you’re getting yourself into, or you might find yourself in the middle of a situation hard to untangle. Be mindful of others who may want to manipulate or bully you. Remain calm, relaxed, and collected instead, and everything will work out. Think about ways you can be more creative in your endeavors. “Gratitude is what you feel when you want what you already have.” James Clear
