Life is a grand buffet under the last Sagittarius moon of the year, and the best part is that you won't have to wait in a long line to fill up your plate. With unlimited access to the feast, the biggest obstacle is our greedy human nature. Don't let your eyes get bigger than your stomach, and you'll stay healthy, happy and mobile.
ARIES (March 21-April 19). You will find success if you follow through, but this is easier said than done. Everyone will seem to be doing something contrary to your plan. Assert yourself. Make your needs known.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You will get the same questions over and over, so have fun with this. Formulate answers that delight you. Maybe your answer is the truth rearranged, or maybe you answer a different question from the one that was asked.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Your rules will only be followed if they are widely known and clearly defined, with the penalties decreed. Even so, you will have a challenger. But if you enforce as promised, there will be only one.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). You know that it's not accurate to say that a certain person makes you laugh or makes you cry, because you're always the one choosing your response. However, you're very willing to submit control to the one you trust today.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You've seen how people whose lives are too easy can become lazy and spoiled. That's why even when you have it good, you'll choose a challenge to make it slightly more difficult.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You're ready to face the truth: Your method isn't working. How do you know? It's simple. You're not getting the result you want. The only logical choice is to stop what you're doing and try something else.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). When you're happy, they will be happy, too. So rest assured, you're not being selfish. If you can't seem to justify doing the things that make you feel healthy and happy, do it for them.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). If you make more noise than the others, they will complain. If they make more, you'll complain. This cycle will end when everyone decides to make noise together.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). In some ways, you feel that you're still at the mercy of an authority figure's decisions. It's not true if you don't let it be true. You can shake the limits whenever you decide to do so.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). What's being built now will be a part of your life for years to come, so you need to be able to trust the integrity of it. Quality work takes longer, but it will save you time in the end.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). The good news is that you're not in a trap even though you may feel like you are. No one is keeping you there except maybe you. Stop saying yes to what you don't want to do.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You may plainly see that you're getting the short end of the stick and still do nothing about it. You like to think things over, and you'll benefit by planning your next move very carefully.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (Dec. 30). You may not sky dive or swim with dolphins, but you'll accomplish bucket-list worthy items that inspire you to create a whole new list. You'll bond with a loved one over January's adventure. The effortless grace you display at work has taken years to develop, and a spring promotion is well deserved. Cancer and Taurus people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 4, 1, 22, 28 and 15.
NEW YEAR, NEW YOU. ARIES: With the auspicious omen of the new moon on the first day of the new year, those who want to make big changes will be cosmically empowered to do so. Aries is inclined to apply makeover energy to the realm of finance. A money-makeover will start with an accurate account of past spending. If there is an organized system in place, the information Aries needs is only a few keystrokes away. However, many Aries people take a more casual approach to personal accounting -- and therein lies the problem! The next six weeks are an ideal time to set up a new system. As Aries crunches the data in bank statements and receipts, patterns will emerge to tell a story. If it's a displeasing tale, Aries will act quickly to remedy the situation. Aries is a decisive sign, and the ram will know right away which purchases led to good things and which purchases turned out to be unnecessary or detrimental to financial goals. Aries will receive excellent financial advice in January, sometimes from people qualified to give it, but more often from family and friends.
