MONDAY, DECEMBER 16, 2019 The playful Leo moon is set aflame by the passionate Sagittaria­n sun. Good feelings move us, and we follow through by singing to the radio, jumping for joy with the good news, or hugging it out because connection heals. The not-so-good feelings come on strong, too. These skies favor all efforts to learn emotional control.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Dec. 16). In the first weeks of your solar year, something that was bound to happen does, at just the right time, for the right reason and with the right people. You’ll say and do what makes you feel free and wonder what took you so long. A purchase will be a game changer, and five months later you’ll get a lump sum to save. Gemini and Virgo adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 4, 33, 12, 49 and 1.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You’ve a keen sense of direction today and not just in a geographic­al context. You’ll pinpoint where you want to be socially, emotionall­y and circumstan­tially, and you’ll find a way to get there.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Photograph­y is an inherently dramatic medium. Every picture tells a story and often it says even more about the taker of the picture than its subject. It’s a day to think thrice before taking and sharing pics.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Steer clear of saying or believing the hyperbole today. Glittering generaliti­es may sound impressive but are ultimately empty of meaning and unlikely to produce lasting influence.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). When everyone is trying something new together, it will reduce the need for competitio­n and increase the enjoyment of the experience. Doing something for the first time has a way of awakening the senses.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). With trusted people, and in an environmen­t of safety, you direct your action in the spirit of kinship toward the benefit of others. Advanced points on the spiritual scale kick in for following suit with strangers in parts unknown.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). The pretty scenery is calling to you. You’ll be wise to enjoy it with your whole being before you reach for your camera. The lens of your soul can capture so much more.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Even though time should be the most logical thing ticking along today, it somehow transcends the math with strange dynamics such as small moments stretching endlessly or multitudes of events happening inside of a minute.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). The assistance comes from all around -- strangers, employees, employers, friends and others. It’s not because you seem like you need help; it’s because you’re doing something cool.

SAGITTARIU­S (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Shakespear­e’s character Polonius suggested that if you’re true to yourself, “thou canst not then be false to any man.” But what of the self-deluded? They cause trouble without meaning to and should be avoided today.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). If someone in your group is questionin­g your every move, then this is an irritating blessing. The critics keep you sharp, strong and humble -- a winning combinatio­n.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). It could be argued that people cannot be fully themselves without other people around them to reflect back who they are, give them the support of roots and ambition of branches.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). There are calls you hear but don’t know how to answer. Those are the ones to figure out now, as most of the fun will be had with people who think differentl­y in places you’ve yet to explore.
