Russell Grant's Daily Horoscopes for Monday 26th December 2011

.
Aries (Mar21/Apr20) Things might not be going your way. It's best to cut your losses and begin again. Resist the pressure to sign a contract that doesn't serve your interests. By holding out for better terms, you'll avoid a long term troubles. You'll have to spend money to make money. Still, it's wise to avoid unnecessary purchases while cash is tight. You'll have an opportunity to splurge next year. Right now, you've got to limit expenditures to quality merchandise that has years of practical use.
  .
Taurus (Apr21/May21) A chronic illness could flare up if you keep taxing your system with sugar, fat, and alcohol. You must adopt a more nutritious diet, even if it does sound like a bore. Fresh fruits, leafy vegetables, and whole grains will keep your system in good working order. The revelries of the festive season have weighed you down. Get a head start on your new year resolutions. That way, you'll avoid the temptation of a binge at a festive party.
  .
Gemini (May22/Jun21) You're sick and tired of doing your duty; you want to have a little fun for a change. Unfortunately, lots of people are counting on you. If you fail to fulfil your responsibilities, you'll drive a wedge between you and a friend. Finish off your work as quickly as possible. An exciting opportunity to travel or study will fall into your lap. Don't start packing or shopping until you've tied up all the loose ends in your personal life.
  .
Cancer (Jun22/Jul23) A grim relative keeps raining on your parade. You're tired of making exciting announcements, only to be told your plans are silly or impractical. In truth, you have a tendency to be overly optimistic. Still, it's better to plunge forward enthusiastically than remain paralysed with fear. Go ahead and pursue an unusual career opportunity. This job will force you to keep unorthodox hours, but the sacrifice will be worth it in the long run. It's just a matter of getting used to a new life.
  .
Leo (Jul24/Aug23) Your boss isn't going to keep a promise, making you sad and discouraged. You can't fall prey to pessimistic thinking. Now is the time to summon your wits. Take this opportunity to pursue an unusual course of study. Learning a new trade will give you an edge on the competition, and allow you to enter an exciting new field. You'll have to learn some complicated technological skills, but luckily, you'll get a good teacher. By putting yourself in their capable hands, you'll widen your 2012 options.
  .
Virgo (Aug24/Sep23) Money is tight right now, and you won't be able to afford a glamorous outing. Although it's disappointing, you'll have to scale back your plans. Instead of buying someone an expensive gift, make one with your own hands. You're very creative so use your talent to make things that are useful and beautiful. Don't overestimate your knowledge of a specialised subject. There's always room to learn more. Let a tech-savvy buddy show you how to operate some complicated equipment.
  .
Libra (Sep24/Oct23) You worry too much about things you cannot control. Instead of taking an overly cautious approach, do what you want and let the chips fall where they may. Yes, you will have to do some damage control afterwards, but who cares? At least you will have had a little fun along the way. Let an impulsive friend or lover lead you down an unexplored path. Trying a new sport, hobby, or cuisine is just the kind of excitement you crave. The more adventurous your experiment, the better!
  .
Scorpio (Oct24/Nov22) You will have to work within strict guidelines, which is maddening. If you don't follow the rules you won't be able to proceed to the next level. Accept the fact you have to work with an oppressive partner. Their ultra-practical attitude is completely alien to a creative thinker like you. Still, if you manage to finish this job on time and under budget, you will be rewarded. Just keep reminding yourself there is a light at the end of this seemingly endless tunnel.
  .
Sagittarius (Nov23/Dec21) You've realised you've wasted valuable resources, and vow not to do so in the future. Opening a savings or retirement account is crucial. Of course, you don't want to put your blind trust in a so called financial expert. It's time to educate yourself about how investments work, and keep an eye on your monthly statements. Once you get into the habit of putting a set portion of your income into an interest bearing account, you'll become addicted to saving.
  .
Capricorn (Dec22/Jan20) Taking the consequences for a bad decision is always difficult. Apologise to the people who were negatively affected, and be prepared to be the target of their wrath. Fortunately, you will have other opportunities to restore your reputation. Let this be a lesson about gambling. If an offer seems too good to be true, it definitely is. An offbeat relative has startling words of wisdom for you. It's nice to know someone empathises with your situation.
  .
Aquarius (Jan21/Feb19) Someone you once respected has let you down. Their behaviour has caused you to question everything you hold dear. Before you abandon your beliefs, consider how you may have held unrealistic expectations. It's never wise to put someone on a pedestal. Relatives will shake their heads and call you naïve. Before you fall in with their cynical way of thinking, consider whether there is another path to forge. Look within for inspiration, instead of investing in others with all of your favourite qualities.
  .
Pisces (Feb20/Mar20) If you owe a friend a favour, make it your first priority to repay the debt. If that means a change of plan, so be it. Relationships are among your most precious possessions. Don't throw them away for something as stupid as cash. You may not realise it, but your friend has been struggling. Put an end to their suffering by restoring their financial security. Be careful about making promises in future. Remember how much work it will take to keep them.

Russell Grant's Daily Horoscopes for Sunday 25th December 2011

.
Aries (Mar21/Apr20) Christmas affords a welcome opportunity to reconnect with the people and activities that truly matter. Keep your mobile and computer off. Focus on opening presents, enjoying good food, and talking with the ones you love. There's a dreamy quality about the festivities this year; you'll do a bit of time travelling, thinking back on your favourite gifts from childhood. Simplifying your life has tremendous rewards. You really don't need very many material goods to be happy.
  .
Taurus (Apr21/May21) Pessimistic thoughts vanish into thin air; you can't be anything but happy at Christmas. Lavish plenty of love on your family. Too often, you are all scattered to the winds, and scarcely have a chance to talk. Now you are gathered together, you can enjoy their company and make plans together. You're the type who needs the support of friends and relatives to thrive. Promise to maintain this close contact when the New Year arrives. Your nearest and dearest will put you in the path of luck.
  .
Gemini (May22/Jun21) This Christmas prompts you to take stock of your spiritual life. You're determined to devote more time to solitary activities like reading, writing, and communing with nature. Although you're a diehard social butterfly, you also need plenty of private time. Being alone helps you connect with your true self. Too often, you take other people's opinions into account. This has caused you to make certain regrettable decisions. Learn to trust your own instincts more; they won't steer you wrong.
  .
Cancer (Jun22/Jul23) Christmas prompts you to focus on things that truly matter. You refuse to let anything stand between you and your goals. Lately, you've been deferring too much to your best friend or romantic partner. Now you see the price you've paid for your solicitude. Be ready to stand up for your interests, even at the risk of starting an argument. The best things in life are worth fighting for. Besides, there's nothing as stimulating as a good debate. Go ahead and rock the boat!
  .
Leo (Jul24/Aug23) Even when you are surrounded with friends and family, you're busy hatching career plans. A chance to get a promotion or high profile job fills you with excitement. You may have to rely on a well connected friend to get you an interview or introduction with an executive. Go ahead and take advantage of this relationship; it's the fastest way to get where you want. Trying to get a good position through conventional means could take ages, and you are anxious to begin a new life.
  .
Virgo (Aug24/Sep23) Christmas puts you in a philosophical frame of mind. You want to expand your horizons. Planning an overseas holiday or going back to the classroom could be in the cards for you. It's just a matter of making a few phone calls to set the wheels in motion. Stop telling yourself you are too busy to travel or study. You've been blessed with a fine mind, and it needs plenty of stimulation. This is also a good time to take up a spiritual practice.
  .
Libra (Sep24/Oct23) A generous gift makes your heart sing with joy. Although you hate to be so materialistic at Christmastime, you have to admit you love getting presents. Beautiful things are like bread and water to you; they're absolutely essential. If you are in a relationship, you'll find your partner especially attentive. That's because you positively radiate sex appeal. Take a few moments to steal away from the festivities so you can enjoy some private time in each other's arms.
  .
Scorpio (Oct24/Nov22) The conflicts that have been weighing on an intimate relationship suddenly ease up. You're more determined than ever to forge a happy life together. Giving each other an added measure of freedom is key. You tend to be very possessive in love. Hiding your feelings will just create resentment. Cultivate your own interests and friendships. Spending time away from each other will give you lots to discuss when you come back together. If you're single, let a friend set you up a blind date.
  .
Sagittarius (Nov23/Dec21) Adopting a pet could be in the cards. You've always had an affinity for dogs. Rescuing one from an animal shelter will be the ultimate embodiment of the Christmas spirit. Of course, you'll want to prepare your home for your companion's arrival. Create a safe haven for it. It's always difficult to adjust to a new home. By anticipating your friend's needs, you'll ease the transition and pave the way for a loving bond that is impossible to break.
  .
Capricorn (Dec22/Jan20) Romance is the greatest gift you'll get this Christmas. Someone has developed a serious crush on you. You'll feel their admiring eyes follow you everywhere. All of this attention is flattering and a little unsettling. You're not used to being a sex symbol. The truth is you are a lot more desirable than you realise. If you're already in a relationship, your partner will try to entice you into the bedroom for a passionate encounter. Follow their lead.
  .
Aquarius (Jan21/Feb19) Being surrounded by the ones you love makes this one of the most memorable Christmases ever. You're starting to realise just how comforting it is to have an enriching family life. In the past, you were intent on exploring new horizons. Now you're intent on setting down roots. Think about buying a home that is conducive to entertaining a lot of visitors. A place near a park or garden would be ideal. Greenery and flowers has a therapeutic effect on you.
  .
Pisces (Feb20/Mar20) A new phone, computer, or entertainment centre prompts you to become more sociable. In the past, you had a tendency to retreat into your private shell whenever you became depressed. Now you have a shiny new gadget, you'll be more prone to reach out to your nearest and dearest. This marks an exciting new phase in your life. Being with upbeat, enthusiastic people will lift your own spirits. Listen to a friend's advice and get to work on a short story.

Russell Grant's Daily Horoscopes for Saturday 24th December 2011

.
Aries (Mar21/Apr20) All eyes will be on you at a celebration. Be sure to wear something that makes you feel sumptuous and sensual. You'll captivate an impressive executive. Be sure to discuss your past accomplishments, as this will open the door to a career opportunity. If you already have a job you enjoy, formulate a strategy to get a raise. Make a list of everything you have contributed to your employer. Your argument will be strengthened with a series of irrefutable facts and figures.
  ..
Taurus (Apr21/May21) An educational opportunity fills you with excitement. You'll get a chance to study a subject that has always fascinated you. Art, music, fashion, horticulture, and gourmet cooking are good areas to explore. You love making things beautiful; it's a natural extension of your creative talent. In the past, you felt pressured to focus on practical concerns. Now you're able to satisfy your spiritual urges. Don't be surprised when you start attracting romantic attention once you enrol in something educational. Intellectual stimulation gives you a sexy glow.
  .
Gemini (May22/Jun21) Money from an inheritance, dividend, or refund will finally arrive. Take this opportunity to pay off some hefty bills. Financial independence can be yours, provided you exercise restraint in the near future. Stay away from your favourite stores and websites. The next time you're tempted to shop, pick up a book, paintbrush, or camera. Do something fun that gives you genuine fulfilment. Spending sprees are fun while they last, but they leave you feeling depleted and sad.
  .
Cancer (Jun22/Jul23) A close partnership gives you the courage to realise a cherished goal. Whether you want a buy a house, develop your creative talent, or start a family, your prospects are good. Just be sure to ask for help when you need it. Your best friend or romantic partner will be happy to hold the fort while you're busy working or studying. It's hard for a nurturer like you to receive tender loving care. The sooner you get into the habit of accepting kindness, the faster you will realise success.
  .
Leo (Jul24/Aug23) A wonderful new job is on the horizon. This position will be related to property, banking, or management. Although you might have to start at the bottom, you'll quickly earn series of promotions. Best of all, you'll make lots of friends along the way. Having supporters at every level of the organisation will only enhance your success. You have the rare gift of making people feel talented and valued. As a result, they bend over backwards to accommodate you.
  .
Virgo (Aug24/Sep23) Launching a creative project will be incredibly rewarding. Now you have a little time off, you'll be able to finish a short story, assemble a collection of photographs, or write a piece of music. Don't be surprised when a seasoned professional expresses admiration for your work. You're a lot more accomplished than you realise. Take this opportunity to showcase your work to people who can truly appreciate it. The compliments will far outweigh the criticisms.
  .
Libra (Sep24/Oct23) A business or romantic partner will come into a great deal of money, giving you a share of the spoils. Take this opportunity to put a deposit on a house or buy some beautiful artwork and furniture. You've always had a taste for luxury. Indulge it now, while you have the means. People may disapprove of your extravagance, but they don't know how to enjoy life like you. As far as you're concerned, there's no point in postponing pleasure.
  .
Scorpio (Oct24/Nov22) You'll get a chance to study with an impressive executive. As a general rule, you prefer teaching yourself. This situation will be the exception to the rule. You've always been impressed by people who pursue their dreams. With your instructor's help, you'll be able to realise your own goals. Learning how to invest money, purchase property, and manage large groups of people are all favoured. You crave the challenge of creating an institution of long lasting value.
  .
Sagittarius (Nov23/Dec21) When you do what you love, the money will follow. Whether it's walking dogs, exercising horses, working on a cruise ship, or reviewing books, you're sure to make a handsome profit. You're not the type who can thrive with a boring desk job. Friends and family accuse you of being irresponsible, refusing to hold down a serious job. What they don't realise is it doesn't matter what you do for a living, so long as it provides you with happiness and financial security, in that order.
  .
Capricorn (Dec22/Jan20) Take this opportunity to revamp your look. Changing your look, updating your wardrobe, or getting fit will change the way people see you. It will also open some professional doors. Jobs that once eluded you will be as easy to grasp as low hanging fruit. It will also be easy to find romance. Someone who was previously indifferent to your charms won't be able to take their eyes off you. It feels great to finally tap into your considerable personal power.
  .
Aquarius (Jan21/Feb19) Help from a hospital, government agency, or educational institution comes in the nick of time. You're finally able to relax and enjoy the Christmas festivities. A relative will greatly benefit from this assistance. It's a relief to know they will receive good care. A beautiful family heirloom will be presented to you. Put this treasure in a prominent place. You should use and enjoy it as often as possible. There's no sense in saving such a gorgeous possession for special occasions.
  .
Pisces (Feb20/Mar20) Your social life positively sparkles. You'll get drawn into a fascinating conversation at a party. It's wonderful to meet someone who shares your interests and can recommend all sorts of great movies, music, and books. This discussion will prompt you to launch a blog or make more use of Facebook.

Russell Grant's Daily Horoscopes for Friday 23rd December 2011

.
Aries (Mar21/Apr20) Even if you're exhausted from work, you have a hard time slowing down. Turn off the computer, switch off your mobile, and avoid television. Listening to soft music can be therapeutic. So can reading, baking, or craftwork. Keeping your hands busy will allow your mind to wander, making it easier to release all the tension that has built up. It's time to adjust your focus so you can see the whole forest instead of the individual trees.
  .
Taurus (Apr21/May21) You're ultra competitive now, but won't be able to find someone with whom to spar. Instead of issuing challenges, sit back and go with the flow. Christmas is a time to come together in a spirit of harmony. You'll be able to put your talent to the test in the New Year. Avoid going deep into debt. If you want to give someone a beautiful gift, make one with your own two hands. Your eye for colour, texture, and form allows you to make gorgeous works of beauty.
  .
Gemini (May22/Jun21) A couple of relatives will be at each other's throats. Resist the urge to get in the middle of this argument. Nothing you do or say will make a difference. You're better off making a strategic retreat. Head off somewhere quiet with a good book. Too often, your nearest and dearest rely on you to referee their fights. This is an emotionally draining role. Channel your energy into activities that fuel your spirits. Others will complain you're being insensitive, but you're too smart to fall for such manipulations.
  .
Cancer (Jun22/Jul23) Resist the urge to find fault with a colleague. The Christmas season is upon us, calling us to put aside our differences for the sake of harmony. You've always been a perfectionist, and can't abide sloppy work. While your desire for excellence is admirable, it can get in the way of good relationships. Think about ways you can promote cooperation without sacrificing quality. Get into the habit of praising people's talent. Ask for help when you're struggling with projects that give you trouble.
  .
Leo (Jul24/Aug23) You'll have to fight for money that is owed to you. You've given your debtor plenty of time to make up the difference. Now their excuses are wearing thin. The threat of legal action could tilt the tide in your favour. Alternatively, you can bring up the spectre of negative publicity. Ordinarily, you would have compassion for someone who can't pay their bills. In this situation the delinquent behaviour is the result of sheer laziness. Don't stand for this nonsense any longer.
  .
Virgo (Aug24/Sep23) You're intent on getting started on a household project, but hold on. Everyone is having so much fun with Christmas festivities that they don't want to help. Instead of throwing a temper tantrum, give in gracefully. You can always launch this plan in 2012 when your relatives will be more amenable to your plans. Yes, your home needs some work. The sooner you stop obsessing over your physical surroundings the easier it will be to enjoy the close ties keeping your family together.
 
Libra (Sep24/Oct23) Bottling up your anger is never a good idea. Lately, you've been harbouring a lot of resentment towards a relative or neighbour. It's bound to come out in some subversive way. Try channelling your frustrations into a physically demanding project. An exercise program will relieve lots of stress. If you're not in good shape, choose a gentle form of exercise like yoga, swimming, or walking. The mere act of moving your body will release tension that is being stored in your muscles.
  .
Scorpio (Oct24/Nov22) This is not the time to stir up trouble among friends. Sometimes you enjoy needling the more sensitive members of the group, just as a form of affectionate teasing. Be aware tempers are running high. What you say in jest will be taken the wrong way. It's better to offer gentle encouragement, especially to a friend who has embarked on a serious course of study. Their classes may seem silly to you, but they're actually a salvation to your loved one. Behave accordingly.
  .
Sagittarius (Nov23/Dec21) Ambition will get the better of you if you're not careful. Now is not the time to be making career plans. You should be focused on domestic pursuits, like making this Christmas one of the best on record. Invite the youngsters to get involved; giving them small tasks will fill them with pride. You can always lobby for a promotion in 2012, when everyone's thoughts return to work. In the meantime, gather together your best work samples and compile a list of references.
  .
Capricorn (Dec22/Jan20) Avoid controversial topics like religion and politics. You have strong opinions, but don't need to voice them at every social gathering. Right now, you must focus on building bridges, not burning them. If you're offended by a relative's lifestyle, remain silent. Nobody likes to be judged. It's possible this family member will make insensitive remarks at a big dinner. Instead of pouring petrol on the fire, steer the conversation in a more pleasant direction.
  .
Aquarius (Jan21/Feb19) This isn't a good time to make a pass at a friend. Although you really want to take this relationship to the next level, the object of your affection isn't ready. Besides, the two of you aren't very well suited to each other. You get along great outside the bedroom, but once sex is thrown into the mix, it will be a whole different story. Your friend needs lots of reassurance and encouragement. This insecurity will start wearing on your nerves.
  .
Pisces (Feb20/Mar20) You're tired of being bossed around all the time. It's particularly embarrassing to be yelled at in public. Unless you take a stand, this trend will continue. Somewhere along the line, you convinced yourself that passivity is critical to a harmonious relationship. Nothing could be further from the truth. By standing up for yourself, you will command the respect you deserve. You'll also be able to pursue the activities you enjoy, rather than deferring to your partner's plans all the time.
.

Russell Grant's Daily Horoscopes for Thursday 22nd December 2011

.
Aries (Mar21/Apr20) A business trip is the last thing you want to conduct with Christmas looming ahead. Still, any journey you take now is sure to come up trumps. Put your disappointment aside for the sake of creating long lasting financial security. You've always craved freedom. Having a steady stream of income will allow you to devote more time to your favourite people and activities. Granted, you'll have to arrange your schedule around work, but you'll also be given plenty of time off.
  .
Taurus (Apr21/May21) An educational, cultural, or religious institution will promote your work. You'll notice an immediate increase in business once you get their recommendation. It feels great to be paid for your expertise. Some rivals will be jealous of your progress, and will try to make trouble for you. If you become the victim of negative online reviews, stay calm. Your best defence is to provide customers with excellent service at fair prices. Eventually, the positive word of mouth will outweigh the unsubstantiated rumours.
  .
Gemini (May22/Jun21) Your warmth and generosity lay the groundwork for a rewarding physical relationship. You've never experience this kind of intensity before. It feels like you're merging with your amour, which is a little scary. Just when you're ready to abandon yourself to passion, you find yourself holding back. Push past your fears. Creating a loving bond will enhance your life, not detract from it. Sexual freedom is overrated, even for a wanderer like you. Let your partner introduce you to new films, writers, artists, and musicians.
  .
Cancer (Jun22/Jul23) A close friend, attentive lover, or caring business partner is instrumental to your success. There's never been a better time to pursue your heart's desire. If you need a babysitter or substitute at work, your nearest and dearest will be happy to help. Don't reveal plans to your boss. The last thing your employer wants is for you to jump ship. It's obvious you're destined for better things, particularly where your career is concerned.
  .
Leo (Jul24/Aug23) Radiant vitality gives you a sexy glow. The results of a fitness regime have paid off handsomely. Take this opportunity to splurge on an attractive new outfit or status symbol. If you want to get in shape, embark on an exercise programme now. Resist the urge to go on a crash diet, as such plans are incredibly unhealthy. You want sustained results, not a quick fix. Besides, you become irritable when deprived of your favourite foods. Moderation in all things.
  .
Virgo (Aug24/Sep23) A great weight has lifted from your heart, allowing you to enjoy Christmas festivities to the fullest. It's comforting to know that no matter how hard your job is, you have loyal friends and family to sustain you. If you're looking for work, don't panic. Things will pick up when the festive season is over. In the meantime, focus on having fun with the people you love most. Soon, you'll be so busy you'll yearn for some time off.
  .
Libra (Sep24/Oct23) At long last, you're able to enjoy some quality time with friends and family. For you, Christmas is about beautiful traditions, uplifting music, and good food. Do your best to recreate special moments from childhood, or establish new rituals. A rebellious friend or relative will mock your efforts, but that's because they've had a painful upbringing. You have no intention to wallow in misery during this festive season. Keep forging ahead with your plans.
  .
Scorpio (Oct24/Nov22) There's an added measure of sympathy between you and a loved one. At times, it feels as if you can read each other's minds. You're sick and tired of working around the clock, and can't take the stress. Fortunately, your best friend or lover sees what is happening, and is ready to help. Stop resisting their attempts to take over your responsibilities. Scale back your work schedule and treat yourself to a massage, facial, or pedicure. Even a dynamo like you needs an occasional rest.
  .
Sagittarius (Nov23/Dec21) Lucrative assignments come in, allowing you to afford a few extra luxuries this Christmas. Resist the urge to go overboard with a youngster. One or two big presents are enough. Put the rest of your earnings into a savings account, where it will grow and multiply. Providing your young friend with economic stability is the best gift you could ever gift. Granted, it's not as flashy as a gaming system, but it is a lot more valuable.
  .
Capricorn (Dec22/Jan20) You'll get lots of favourable attention, both for your sex appeal and for your creativity. This is the perfect day to go on a first date, job interview, or audition. Submit your artwork to a publisher, gallery, or boutique. A relative won't be very supportive of your plans. In fact, they'll be downright jealous of your success. Don't discuss your ambitions with this family member, unless you want to provoke a big fight before Christmas. Sometimes it is best to keep life compartmentalised.
  .
Aquarius (Jan21/Feb19) Offer quiet support for a relative who is charting a new course. It takes a lot of courage to break a bad habit and start anew. With your help, this family member can enjoy a level of health and happiness that wasn't possible a year ago. Angry words will be flying backwards and forwards in the family circle. There has always been a vast gulf between someone who's a risk taker and someone who's naturally cautious. Resist the urge to play the peacemaker; you could be the first casualty!
  .
Pisces (Feb20/Mar20) Getting involved with a large group gives you a sense of belonging. It feels good to express your creative vision to an appreciative audience. Having people champion your work gives you the courage to try something new. Don't fool yourself into thinking you should buy lots of expensive equipment to experiment with this medium. With a little ingenuity, you can find a cheaper, easier way to achieve the effect you want. Necessity is the mother of invention.

Russell Grant's Daily Horoscopes for Wednesday 21st December 2011

.
Aries (Mar21/Apr20) Spending time with friends gives you a great deal of pleasure, but it can be costly. Instead of heading out to restaurants, clubs, and theatres, invite the gang over for a casual evening of food, fun, and festivities. Encourage guests to bring friends. If you're single, you could meet someone special this way. Of course, you'll want to look your best, even if you've planned a relaxing evening. Wear red, your signature colour. It always ignites your inner fire.
  .
Taurus (Apr21/May21) There are some problems that can't be solved with warmth and kindness. It may be better to cut ties with a difficult client than accommodate their needs. Some people are intent on beating the system. Accepting damaged merchandise or offering a sizable discount will only fuel this customer's desire to get more for less. Remember, you have a right to be well paid for your work. If a manipulator fails to recognise this, you should dispense with their business.
  .
Gemini (May22/Jun21) Irrational fears are stopping you from taking a risk. Lean on a brave friend for support. If you yearn to further your education, but are afraid of applying to colleges, call somebody who enjoys a challenge. With their assistance, you can fill out applications and send them out before Christmas arrives. The sooner you dispatch this task, the better. Putting it off will only undermine your resolve. Don't worry if you weren't successful with a past course of study.
  .
Cancer (Jun22/Jul23) A generous gift allows you to afford luxuries that are normally out of reach. Go ahead and treat yourself to an expensive gadget. Normally, you do without as a means to accommodate your nearest and dearest. It might be wise to keep this present a secret from a friend who is down on their luck. You wouldn't want jealousy to get in the way of a friendship. It's hard to rejoice over other people's good fortune when you're down on your luck.
  .
Leo (Jul24/Aug23) You attract romance like a flower draws bees. Don't let all this attention go to your head. Just because you're an object of desire doesn't mean you should play with people's affections. Be compassionate towards someone who has a crush on you, especially if you don't return their feelings. Your heart belongs to an athletic visionary. The sooner you establish whom you really want, the faster the rejected party will be able to heal. Stop dragging your feet.
  .
Virgo (Aug24/Sep23) Being of service to others always gives you pleasure. Take care you don't create a cycle of dependence with someone you admire. As much as you'd like, it's impossible to be at their beck and call. You have your own responsibilities to fulfil. Besides, a lover is eager for your company. Sneaking away to some private retreat together will recharge your batteries. Stop underplaying your sensual side. It is more powerful than you'd like to admit.
  .
Libra (Sep24/Oct23) You're the life of the party, which is why you get so many invitations! If you're single, you're sure to meet a love connection at a Christmas party. You find a cool rebel especially intriguing. Let the courtship phase of your relationship play out over a long period. Jumping into bed together at the first sign of attraction will be anticlimactic. Romance is like a delicate plant. It needs care, time, and attention to flourish. If you already have a lover, be mindful of their physical desires.
  .
Scorpio (Oct24/Nov22) Christmas is the perfect time for you to entertain. Normally, you're quite reclusive. There's something about the festive season that prompts you to let down your defences. Your best friend or lover might resent all the time you put into planning a big party. Try to appease their fears. Just because you want to celebrate your social circle doesn't mean you no longer prize your intimate relationships. It's time to take a more balanced approach to your private life.
  .
Sagittarius (Nov23/Dec21) This is a lovely time to explore a new local hangout. You're always looking for a place where you can relax and connect with friends. Don't tell colleagues about this retreat. Draw a firmer line between your personal and professional lives. If you're single, you will meet someone special at a gym, sporting event, or competition. Keep your eyes open for someone with a shaved head, fabulous mane, or spectacular hat. The two of you will feel an instinct connection.
  .
Capricorn (Dec22/Jan20) Your impeccable taste helps you choose some beautiful, valuable items at an antique market. Think twice before buying a highly expensive item for a loved one who won't appreciate it. You're better off choosing something to supplement your home, like a gorgeous rug or handcrafted table. If you don't like the price that is initially offered, haggle for a lower one. You can drive a hard bargain when it comes to something you really want. Put those negotiation skills to work.
  .
Aquarius (Jan21/Feb19) You've never put much emphasis on appearance, preferring to develop your intellect. Still, there is a great deal of satisfaction to be found from looking your best. This doesn't mean you have to conform to your family's idea of beauty. There is no reason you can't treat yourself to a spa or salon treatment. Adding some stylish items to your wardrobe is also advised. You don't have to spend a lot of money to look terrific. Distinctive colours and styles suit your fashion sensibility.
  .
Pisces (Feb20/Mar20) An unknown benefactor recommends you for a job. You probably don't remember this, but you helped a colleague cope with a serious problem long ago. This kind gesture has created some good karmic energy. Be wary about a relative or neighbour's promises. If you're planning to move, you should have a backup plan, just in case your helper drops out at the last minute. Be careful about hitting the 'send' button after writing an emotional text or email.

Russell Grant's Daily Horoscopes for Tuesday 20th December 2011

.
Aries (Mar21/Apr20) Joining a club or sports team will give you a new lease on life. You're tired of going from home to work and back again. Cultivating a rewarding social life will increase your energy, not deplete it. A needy relative will feel threatened by your decision. Do your best to reassure them you're not abandoning your responsibilities. You're simply creating a lifestyle that has deep personal meaning. Everybody needs to feel as they're doing something worthwhile.
  .
Taurus (Apr21/May21) You'll get lots of favourable publicity for your creative contributions. People admire your ability to put an inventive spin on old mediums. An exciting career opportunity comes your way after your talents have been publicised in one way or another. This new position will afford lots of creative control. Granted, you will be at your boss's beck and call for a while. In time, you'll establish you are a trustworthy worker who doesn't need lots of supervision. Good things come to those who wait.
  .
Gemini (May22/Jun21) An out of the blue opportunity to study arrives unexpectedly. Fortunately, you'll be able to travel in style, even while you're working hard. Don't shrink from visiting a place that is off the beaten trail. You'll have a wonderful time while you're away from home. In addition, the distance you get from your problems will provide welcome perspective. Suddenly, you'll see how to take the pressure off a troubled relationship. Issues you once thought important will seem relatively minor while you're away.
  .
Cancer (Jun22/Jul23) Working with someone who shares your values is encouraging. Sometimes you worry the entire world is devoid of principles. Nothing could be further from the truth. It's just that a lot of people in power have been consumed by greed. You have an opportunity to provide valuable resources for the poor. By brainstorming with your partner, you'll find ways to maximise these products and services. You can make a real difference, provided you don't let each other get discouraged.
  .
Leo (Jul24/Aug23) Cultivating an air of mystery is the best way to secure a person's heart. As a general rule, you are refreshingly honest and open. Try to keep the object of your affection guessing. By refusing to be pinned down by their questions, you'll become a source of fascination. Are you already in a relationship? This would be a good time to form a creative partnership. Your talent for mixing colours, forms, and textures works well with someone who has a fine eye for detail.
  .
Virgo (Aug24/Sep23) An office romance shows signs of promise. You actually look forward to going to work these days. If you're looking for a job, you could find one in an artistic field like fashion, film, or photography. Don't worry if you have to take a pay cut. Being emotionally satisfied is reward enough. Besides, someone with your talent will quickly rise through the ranks. Take care not to tax your system with a lot of fancy food. It's best to stick to familiar favourites.
  .
Libra (Sep24/Oct23) Your love life is showing exciting signs of life. A cool rebel has captured your heart. The two of you will spend hours discussing your favourite subjects. It feels great to have a lover who has both good looks and an impressive brain. If you're already in a relationship, this is an opportune time to go on holiday. Choose a glamorous mountain resort. The beautiful views will inspire you to paint, write, or compose music. It's time to put your artistic talent to use.
  .
Scorpio (Oct24/Nov22) Filling your home with books, art, and beautiful furniture is your primary goal. Your surroundings have a tremendous impact on your outlook. Drab rooms and indifferent furnishings make you depressed. You don't need a lot of money to create a fabulous effect. Shopping at antique stores inspires you to restore shabby things to their original worth. That's the ultimate way to recycle! News of an impending marriage or birth sets off a string of parties. Throw a little soiree at your place.
  .
Sagittarius (Nov23/Dec21) An attractive neighbour introduces you to an unfamiliar artist, cuisine, or health practice. If there's anything you enjoy, it's having your horizons widened. The fact that your teacher is incredibly sexy doesn't hurt, either. If you're thinking of moving, explore communities known for their love of art and culture. You require lots of intellectual stimulation to fuel your enthusiasm. A boring, uninspiring environment will dull your edge. You'll thrive in a place known for its museums, restaurants, and theatres.
  .
Capricorn (Dec22/Jan20) The money you need for an expensive computer, phone, or gadget will finally arrive. Don't skimp on quality. You're better off buying a top line model than a budget item. Your productivity will increase quite a bit as a result of this purchase. Try to be objective about a moral issue. Just because you don't agree with a colleague's methods doesn't mean their motives are impure. You are operating from two very different sets of values. Both of these belief systems have merit, so keep an open mind.
  .
Aquarius (Jan21/Feb19) Working with a group fuels your creativity. You love being able to bounce ideas off other artists. Creating a beautiful space for the public to enjoy is a great use your talent and energy. Don't be surprised if this assignment allows you to combine business with pleasure. An attractive visionary will do everything in their power to win your heart. Although you aren't necessarily in the mood for romance, you find this admirer intriguing. You love their brilliant mind.
  .
Pisces (Feb20/Mar20) A glamorous newcomer arrives on the professional front. The attraction between you is magnetic. If you're already in a relationship, you will have to work hard to resist temptation. On the other hand, this may be the push you require to get out of a troubled relationship. Single? Then don't move too quickly. Playing hard to get with this superstar is the best strategy. Besides, it boosts your ego to be pursued by an ardent lover.

Russell Grant's Daily Horoscopes for Monday 19th December 2011

.
Aries (Mar21/Apr20) Helping a friend, lover, or business partner with a problem makes you feel proud. You've been blessed with tremendous energy, and can handle virtually any job that comes your way. This ability to thrive under pressure will give your loved one a chance to further their ambitions. Do your best to encourage them to return to college, write a book, or take an overseas trip. You'll be rewarded for your sacrifice later on, when your partner is in a position to help you.
  .
Taurus (Apr21/May21) You're determined to set an ethical tone at work. If you see someone who continually breaks the rules, you must confront them. Explain you will not tolerate their bad behaviour any longer, and threaten to report them to the boss the next time a transgression occurs. Be prepared to act on your ultimatum. The longer this troublemaker continues to defy authority, the harder it will be to get ahead for the principled members of the team.
  .
Gemini (May22/Jun21) A loving partner builds your self esteem. Although you've always been a creative person, you're insecure about your talent. Instead of worrying what others will think of your work, seek to satisfy yourself. If others respond enthusiastically to it, that's great. If not, you'll still have something you feel is beautiful and worthy. Your best friend or lover will encourage you to take an advanced class or study with a respected artisan. You'd be wise to take their advice.
  .
Cancer (Jun22/Jul23) Being able to provide your loved ones with a secure home life is one of your greatest priorities. Fortunately, you will be given a chance to work from home. This will allow you to be present for children and older relatives who need your care and companionship. It may be necessary to hire temporary help so you can attend your professional duties. Still, having you on the premises will make a big difference to your loved ones. Your calm, nurturing presence is very reassuring.
  .
Leo (Jul24/Aug23) You'll be asked to deliver upsetting news to a loved one or lover. Although you hate causing anyone pain, you realise that you're the right person for this job. Sharing this information will require great tact and kindness. That will make all the difference when it comes time to heal from this shock. People find your warmth and generosity very comforting. They know you can be relied upon to stay strong and loyal through a crisis. No wonder you're one of the most valued members of your social circle.
  .
Virgo (Aug24/Sep23) A strong need for financial security causes you to make some changes at home. Preparing your own meals and renting movies will be far less expensive than going out all the time. This change will also promote better relations with your relatives, neighbours, and friends. Host an evening of cards and games. Talking and laughing around the table will be a lot more fun than spending tons of money on glamorous pursuits. Besides, it's easier to relax when you're in comfortable surroundings.
  .
Libra (Sep24/Oct23) You'll have to assert your authority with a wilful worker, student, or youngster. Although you hate playing bad cop, it's important to establish some firm ground rules. Sharing your expertise is rewarding, provided you get the respect you deserve. If you continue to let people walk all over you, it will be impossible to do the work you've been assigned. Are you looking for a job? Explore opportunities related to teaching, writing, and research. You need a position that stimulates your intellect.
  .
Scorpio (Oct24/Nov22) At long last, you're able to work in solitude. If there's anything you hate, it's being interrupted just as you're making progress. Now you've been left to your own devices, you'll be able to be three times as productive. This remarkable achievement will result in an impressive raise. If you're looking for work, seek employment at a government agency, hospital, or economic institution. You'll get a secure spot that pays well and gives you a good amount of freedom.
  .
Sagittarius (Nov23/Dec21) Helping a friend in need is a natural extension of your generous personality. Although you're busy with Christmas festivities, you can take some time out of your schedule to assist with a move or repair project. Although the reasons for this endeavour are tinged in sadness, there's no reason you have to be sombre while you work. Create a festive atmosphere with upbeat music, great food, and copious amounts of drink. Before long, the sadness will lift and everyone will be having fun.
  .
Capricorn (Dec22/Jan20) Use your executive ability to help a friend. Getting a pal a job or secure living position is the best way to improve their circumstances. Refrain from giving a loan. If you're inclined to give them money, put some in an envelope and anonymously slip it into their mailbox. That way, your loved one won't feel pressured to pay it back. Nothing tears a good relationship apart like a sense of financial obligation. Do your best to preserve your friend's pride.
  .
Aquarius (Jan21/Feb19) You're determined to stand on your own two feet. Although you have friends in high places, you'd prefer to get ahead through sheer talent. This may require you to accept a position that is beneath your ability. Happily, your employer will quickly recognise your talent, giving you a series of promotions. Once you reach the top, you'll be able to claim full credit for your success. If your employer offers to pay for your schooling, take advantage of the programme.
  .
Pisces (Feb20/Mar20) An ability to stretch resources makes you a valued member of the team. If you're going on a job interview, emphasise your ability to make sound, economical choices. If there's anything you hate, it's waste. By maximising your employer's holdings, you'll help the company withstand some lean economic times. This will result in an impressive promotion, along with generous perks. It pays to be frugal in an environment like this. Fortunately, you know how to thrive on a tight budget.
