Horoscopes

For Monday, Dec. 5

Those with birthdays today: It might be wise to keep your head clear. Holding back could be more difficult than you anticipated. If you let tension or anger build, you could be accident-prone. You need to let off steam. Some might take up a new hobby or exercise. Sometimes you think that communicating is enough. Actions count too. If you are single, you will meet people easily. Getting along with someone on a day-to-day basis is another story. Do not commit to a long-term bond this year. If you are attached, you will discover that your relationship benefits enormously from conversations and time alone together. AQUARIUS understands you well.
