YOUR STARS

(FRIDAY, 8 DECEMBER 2017)

ARIES (March 21-April 20) – Do your best to avoid alienating yourself from any of your colleagues. You have a lot of catching up to do so try not to take on any additional commitments just now. Always ensure that you have the financial resources available before you embark on a heavy expenditure. TAURUS (April 21-May 20) – Avoid spreading your net too widely – accept the fact that there are limits to what you can absorb. Try to practice something that has been difficult for you and it will become more manageable. Try to exert greater effort to understand what motivates others as well as to respect their feelings. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – What you had sought to do will not succeed but do not blame yourself, you did your very best. Had it not been for some uncontrollable factors, you would have made a lot of difference. You should not be afraid of doing something just out of the ordinary, but leave yourself with a margin for error. CANCER (June 21-July 20) – Instead of doing what you want at all costs count the cost carefully and proceed only if worthwhile. No harm in indulging in a small luxury but be moderate about it. Be sure to keep your side of a bargain even if the other party has hitherto not quite done so. LEO (July 21-Aug. 20) – You will be a little more inventive and this will help you to deal with a certain obstacle. Make sure however that you do not try to tackle more than you can take on. Concentration will not come easily; the remedy is to strive to exert all the willpower of which you are capable. VIRGO (Aug 21-Sept. 22) – Avoid a tendency to just wait for things to happen. If you do what happens is not what you would wish to happen. A problem with which you will be confronted can only be resolved by trial and error. You are however, on the right path. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) – If you have an appointment with someone, make sure you have made it clear about when and where you will meet him/her. There is a risk of your not hearing what you do not wish to hear. Now that you know you will be able to take the appropriate action. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 22) – If, as you may well do, cause yourself an injury, make sure you do not neglect it. Remember that every pain has a cause; if it persists have it seen to. If you have started to put on weight unduly, try to eat and drink fewer sweet and starchy things. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 20) – You will tend to be in high spirits, up to a point where you should try to exercise a little more restraint. You will be able to put the record straight and you should do your best to avoid doing anything that might lead to future misinterpretations. CAPRICORN (Dec. 21-Jan. 19) – Do not think that being extravagant, even if you can afford it, can make up for a deficit of love and affection. There will be some unexpected matters that need to be taken care of right away. Try to get back into your working routine as quickly as possible. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – Make sure you make yourself perfectly clear and do not blame others if they misunderstand you as a consequence of your own obscurity. Do not hesitate to read again something that is quite unclear on a first reading especially if a contractual arrangement is involved. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – You would do well to check how other people go about things – perhaps their way is better than yours. You will have much to do that you are liable to get into a panic about it. Done; it won’t get things done any more quickly, just keep calm and work steadfastly.
