‘’TWAS the night before Christmas, When all through the house, Not a creature was stirring, Not even a mouse,’ wrote Clement Clarke Moore. Except something is stirring. Mercury’s creeping out from its shadow, leaving the territory it revisited during its retrograde movement. As it ventures forth, sniffing the air and searching for crumbs from mince pies, we don’t have to be as timid. There are no nebulous threats waiting to pounce. Clear focus on the present brings presence of mind and, if you’re lucky, a well-earned mince pie too!
ARIES AS scientists struggle Mar 21 — Apr 20 to understand an illogical universe, philosophers wrestle with unsolvable conundrums.

Today, you find yourself presented with a situation that’s hard to label either right or wrong. If you can find the middle ground this Christmas, you might not avoid confusion, but you’ll enjoy more peace and joy. Have a wonderful Solstice Full Mooninspired Christmas. If you need to find perspective, call 1550 511 611.
TAURUS THERE are some Apr 21 — May 21 folk you’d like to be closer to, and others whom you’d like to be able to distance yourself from. It seems difficult to get the balance right. Rather than life being what happens to you while you’re making other plans, it’s about being able to be happy even when your plans go awry. So, despite the cosmos challenging you to juggle a few difficult situations today, you have the means to manage with unexpected ease. You’re getting exactly what you need to make Christmas a success.

GEMINI SOME folk are May 22 — June 22 convinced that everything happens for a purpose. But when you can’t see why something’s happening, it’s hard to imagine what that purpose is. You’re confident that you’ve chosen a particular path for a very good reason. So just because someone has a logically presented argument, which offers a different perspective, does that mean that you should change your tack? No! Things in your life are the way they are supposed to be. Trust your feelings and your instincts this Christmas. Merry Christmas! And, if you need some extra good cheer, call for a short, inspiring message: 1550 511 611.
CANCER MANY of the June 23 — July 23 best-loved Christmas rituals are reminders of the sadbut-true fact that we value possessions above everything. Well, that’s what some people love to tell us. While it’s true that we’re endlessly inundated with advertisements telling us what we need to buy, perhaps this is the time of year when we also remember that there’s more to life than what we own. For a life to be ‘full’, we need to make time to rest, play, converse, inspire and explore. These qualities are all on offer to you this Christmas. Have a wonderful Solstice Full Moon-inspired Christmas. If you need to find perspective, call 1550 511 611.
LEO WHAT are your July 24 — Aug 23 festive plans? No! Surely not! Do you really think you’re going to be able to get away with that? There will be repercussions... and some of them will be almost immediate. But before you make up your mind to accept the consequences of your actions, here comes a timely reminder from the cosmos that you have time to look before you leap. Your plans aren’t cast in stone.

You know this, you’ve been giving it some thought recently; questioning the enigmatic nature of life and casting doubt on recent decisions.

LIBRA THIS festive season Sep 24 — Oct 23 allows you to make an important change in a key relationship. Christmas will bring an opportunity to create or develop a sustainable rapport which is built on greater understanding and honesty. The change might not appear much at first, but it will mature significantly. Before this can happen, a clear and open discussion needs to happen. Disagreements need to be investigated before negotiations can take place. Only then will the air be cleared for a magical Christmas. Have a wonderful Solstice Full Moon-inspired Christmas.

SCORPIO THE more chaos Oct 24 — Nov 22 in your life, the more you’re tempted to disappear into your own world of fantasy. That’s when you close your eyes to the situation you’re in and imagine that all is ‘just fine’. If you can manage to control your thought processes, and keep your rose-tinted spectacles in place, you’ll be able, at least, to pretend that everything’s okay. Yet there’s a better way to be this Christmas. If you can commit yourself to acting with integrity, and dare to be yourself, you’ll really enjoy the festive season. Wishing you a Solstice Full Moon-inspired Christmas. If the season begins to lose its sparkle, call 1550 511 611.
SAGITTARIUS OF course Nov 23 — Dec 21 we know the way people dress shouldn’t make a difference to the way we perceive them. It’s ridiculous and ignorant to think someone wearing a suit has more wisdom than someone who has not. Yet superficial assumptions affect our view of the world and the people in it. Over Christmas you may be tempted to form a picture of someone based on past experience. To be as fair and impartial as you can, take your time rather than jump to conclusions. Be open to surprises. Merry Christmas! And, if you need some extra good cheer, call for a short, inspiring message: 1550 511 611.
CAPRICORN ‘YOU have Dec 22 — Jan 20 to be cruel to be kind’ is one of those questionable expressions. I’m not sure if it’s ever appropriate, but surely, at this time of year, it should be at the bottom of everyone’s agenda. It is, though, important to be honest. And sometimes, you have to speak your truth even if it risks causing offence. Over the festive period you’ll find that, as long as you speak from your heart, with respect and kindness, rather than being cruel, you’ll be kind. Being sincere and sensitive will ensure a special Christmas. Have a wonderful Solstice Full Moon-inspired Christmas. If you need to find perspective, call 1550 511 611.
AQUARIUS THE arrival of Jan 21 — Feb 19 Christmas is adding to the already-powerful passions and intense feelings you’re experiencing. The tension is mounting. As you become aware of your needs, you’re feeling swamped by uncertainty about them being met by anyone, let alone Santa. This is the moment to shake off these feelings before they start to trigger bitterness and frustration. If you can find a way to appreciate all that comes into your world over the festive season, it can bring you the happiness you crave. Wishing you a Solstice Full Moon-inspired Christmas. If the season begins to lose its sparkle, call 1550 511 611.
PISCES ACROSS the world Feb 20 — Mar 20 tonight, adults will tell white lies to children. And, although the story of Santa might be harmless, we’re all told myths that we’d be better off questioning rather than just accepting. Like the idea that some people have greater imaginative powers than others. Your ability to express your visions may not always convince those around you to follow you on the road towards your dreams, yet it’s still important that you share your views this Christmas. Someone surprising can help you on your way. Merry Christmas! And, if you need some extra good cheer, call for a short, inspiring message: 1550 511 611.
