For Sunday, Dec. 16:

Your emotional and financial security keep coming to the forefront as main issues in 2008. How you deal with these issues could vary. If you are single, you will meet someone quite different, or while traveling you might encounter your “special” person. If you are attached, you mesh deeply with your partner, feeling closer than ever. Pisces can hold you back, for better or worse.
