HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Monday, Dec. 26, 2022: Although you are focused and determined, you are also playful and mischievous. You have a large personality, and others often look to you for strength and reassurance. This year you are reaping the rewards of past efforts.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) ★★★ Don’t be upset if you feel oppressed by a friend today or criticized by someone older. Don’t take it personally. Today the Moon is lined up with Saturn. It is what it is. Sudden upsets with someone (possibly about money or possessions) might occur. We all feel this squeeze play today. Tonight: Solitude.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) ★★ This is a bummer day to deal with authority figures. Don’t ask for a raise or for favors. In fact, give bosses, parents, teachers and the police a wide berth. Your interactions with them will be unpredictable. Tonight: Talk to a friend.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) ★★★ Avoid discussions about controversial subjects, because these will go south in a New York minute. Very possibly, someone might criticize you or make you feel diminished. Whatever happens will be depressing. Tonight: You’re noticed.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) ★★ You might feel broke today. Debt, taxes and anything to do with inheritances and shared property might look gloomy. In fact, you might encounter surprising news that you didn’t expect to hear. Things might look bleak, especially if the posse is after you. Good luck. Tonight: Explore!
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) ★★ Don’t be discouraged today if you feel shot down by someone. Many people feel this way today because the Moon is lined up with Saturn, which is like draping the world in black crepe paper. Not fun. In addition, someone close to you might throw you a curveball today. Get ready. Tonight: Check your finances.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) ★★★ Work conditions might be onerous today. You might be exhausted from shoveling snow before you even get to work! Bosses might rain on your parade. Meanwhile, your work routine might be interrupted. Possibly, even your health might hold a few surprises for you. Tonight: Cooperate.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) ★★★ Parents should know that this is an accident-prone day for their kids. Meanwhile, social outings might be a bummer. For starters, they might be canceled or suddenly changed. Perhaps someone is boring or won’t stop complaining. Tonight: Work.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) ★★ An older family member might throw cold water on your plans today. In fact, family discussions will likely discourage you. Furthermore, your home routine might be interrupted by a small appliance breaking down or some other disruption. Tonight: Relax.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) ★★ Today you might feel discouraged because negative thinking is rampant. Don’t let this get you down, because it’s a temporary influence. Nevertheless, pay attention to everything you say and do, because this is also an accident-prone day. Forewarned is forearmed. Tonight: Cocoon.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) ★★ You might feel financially discouraged today. You also might feel bummed out because something you own is broken, harmed, lost or stolen. Today is a discouraging day for most people; plus, it has unexpected surprises. Give yourself a little treat to keep your boat afloat. Tonight: Conversations.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) ★★ Things look worse than they really are today. Because the Moon is in your sign today and lined up with Saturn, you might feel lonely, isolated or cut off from others. Meanwhile, this is a mildly accident-prone day. Tonight: Check your money.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) ★★★ This is a mildly accident-prone day for your sign, so pay attention to everything you say and do. Meanwhile, it’s a restless day for you. You feel vaguely lonely, isolated and perhaps depressed. Join the club. We number the millions. Chalk this up to a seasonal hangover and too much tryptophan. Tonight: You win.
