have your say, plus your stars
Aries
21 Mar – 20 Apr You’ll be doing Christmas differently, and the more you ring the changes, the more fun you’ll have. If you think the family won’t go along with it, think again. Around the 20th, some real magic can happen.
Taurus
21 Apr – 20 May Your ruler meets taskmaster Saturn on Christmas Day – not necessarily the jolliest influence. However, he helps you work hard and get all your jobs done smoothly. But if anyone criticises, woe betide them!
Gemini
21 May – 20 Jun Need to get your other half on-side with Christmas? Or persuade someone to do things differently? Around the 15th, loving influences make others putty in your hands. Be clear about what you want.
Cancer
21 Jun – 22 Jul Christmas can be a testing time for partnerships. For you, this year’s especially so. Events from the 20th on could prove a turning point. Now, strong one-on-ones get stronger, and weak ones wobble.
Leo
23 Jul – 22 Aug Leos dazzle at this year’s festive dos. The planets are partying in your ’scope’s zone of fun and silliness, especially around the 18th. Single lions meet Mr Right if you’re willing to date someone older.
Virgo
23 Aug – 22 Sep Family may throw spanners in the works of your Christmas plans right up to the 23rd. After that, things get easier. As for the day itself, just step up to your responsibilities and you’ll have a wonderful time.
Libra
23 Sep – 23 Oct Days around the 20th are full of magic, naughtiness under the mistletoe and real fun. After that, you’re doing your duty but not always having the best of times. Is someone critical getting on your nerves?
Scorpio
24 Oct – 22 Nov Will you spend Christmas with the people you adore or ones you tolerate? As the day approaches you’re determined to have a good time. Watch the booze though – if you’re angry it’ll make you erupt.
Sagittarius
23 Nov – 22 Dec A line-up of planets around the 18th promises a full-on time. Given one of them is hard-work planet Saturn, it won’t be all lighthearted fun. There’s a responsibility you need to attend to, then the partying can start.
Capricorn
23 Dec – 20 Jan On Friday 22nd your ruler Saturn sails into Capricorn, strengthening your position in all areas. At Christmas itself, more people are willing to help you out this year than ever before. Let them.
Aquarius
21 Jan – 19 Feb Friendships and networking potential are on a high in the run-up to Christmas. Someone older makes you an offer you’d be mad to refuse. By the 25th you’re craving quiet and will be happiest if you get it.
Pisces
20 Feb – 20 Mar The moon in your sign says you’re happiest at home. If you can’t be, do your best to create a domestic vibe. Parental criticism gets to you more than usual, so if you’re with the oldies, try to stay calm.
