For Tuesday, Dec. 16:

This year you will continue to gain insight into new types of thinking. Be willing to break patterns and head in a new direction, which up till now you haven’t seen. If you are single, you could meet someone quite exotic and different. If you are attached, plan that long-talked-about special trip with your sweetie. Leo always will point the way if asked.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult

Aries (March 21-April 19)

•••• Despite confusion, you will come out on top of your game. You might find that a bit hard to believe, but it’s the truth. Tonight: Off playing.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

••• Listen to news and understand what people are saying. Somehow you need to get your message across. Tonight: At home.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

••••• Your creativity comes forth. You might be more willing to jump through hoops than in the past. Listen to yourself when having a semi-heated discussion. Tonight: Hang out.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

•••• Confusion earmarks your interactions concerning finances. Certainly a partner might not be deceptive so much as naive. Tonight: Your treat.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

••••• You mean well, even if a friend, associate or loved one might not be getting your message clearly. Investigate what is happening with a child or loved one. Tonight: Beam in what you want.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

••• It is not what you want that counts, but what you don’t want. Investigate, study, research and continue to ask questions. Tonight: Take some much-needed personal time.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

••••• Zero in on what you want. Investigate more of what is happening with a key project. Tonight: Where your friends are.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

•••• No one can stop a pattern or what appears to be an unstoppable wave of thought better than you. Walk up to the platform and state the “other” case. Tonight: You burn the candle at both ends.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHHH Your energy could be awesome. If not used constructively, you could have a problem. Take the high road if possible. Confusion runs around communication. Tonight: Relax your mind.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

••••• Deal with others directly and make that difference. If you are available, a conversation reveals much more of what is going on than you originally thought. Tonight: Dinner for two.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

•••• You might not be intending to deceive yourself or deal with a situation realistically. Knowing your limits and establishing the pros and cons of a situation could be important. Tonight: Go with another’s suggestion.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

••• You could be overwhelmed by the many people in your life who need you now, if not yesterday. Follow-through does count. Tonight: Easy does it.
