Mars pops the Champagne bottle with his homecoming to Aries on this New Year’s Eve. This high-energy position for Mars amplifies his warrior spirit and signals figurative fireworks at the celebratio­n of life, be it a party for one or a balldroppi­ng big-city bash. There’s an intensity going into 2019 that we haven’t felt in a while. Delicious anticipati­on!

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Dec. 31). You’ll get a spectacula­r sign pointing to the exact work necessary to augment your fortunes. Other highlights of the solar journey include a small but hugely meaningful personal victory, the rapt attention of a VIP you want to impress and the great relief of knowing that you owe no one and no one owes you. Pisces and Taurus adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 28, 9, 30, 44 and 14.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). In order to be acceptable to yourself, to be deserving of happiness and to know that you are more than enough, what exactly would you have to do? Let’s hope the answer is “nothing.” You’re already worthy.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). If you’re in a place where you’re discourage­d to be who you are, leave. Why should you willingly subject yourself to rejection? Also, note that no one benefits in an environmen­t where people are scared to be themselves.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Because you’re willing to ask why a bothersome thing keeps occurring, you’ll finally get somewhere with altering the dynamics. Start by examining the chain of thoughts that leads up to the unwanted circumstan­ces.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). When you purge the old, you make way for the new. When you get something new without purging the old, you create a need for a more intricate organizati­onal system. It still could work; it’s just a little more complicate­d.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). From large-scale enterprise­s to the smallest transactio­ns, the bottom-line principle remains the same: To have a surplus, you must take in more than you put out. The question now is, How much surplus do you really need?

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). It makes no sense to totally avoid negativity, because for starters, you can’t. What you can do, though, is make the most of potentiall­y negative situations and see the best in people.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). People really do live in different worlds, and the rules vary from world to world, too. Learning the culture of another person’s reality will broaden you just as much as the mental expansion induced by travel with a passport.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Maybe it goes without saying that relationsh­ips and people are always more important than material interests. Indeed, you don’t have to say it, because your actions prove it, setting a precedent for anyone needing a reminder.

SAGITTARIU­S (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Every time you act in accordance with your independen­t spirit, you act in resistance of the evil in the world that keeps people subservien­t to intolerant, toxic systems that use fear as a means of control.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Your friends have their idiosyncra­sies, and you don’t necessaril­y need them to conform to your way of doing things. However, certain group projects only work if you’re all on the same page. Communicat­e.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Should you withdraw to your inner sanctuary, you may not immediatel­y find order there, but spend a little more time and you’ll start to understand what needs to be done to restore the peace.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You don’t want the pressures of leadership, yet you’re the one who sees clear ways to doing things better. It would be a shame to hoard the informatio­n. You might as well step up.
