­For Monday, Dec. 26:

Expect to flip from being very creative to practical this year. Both sides are part of you and can work as a team. If you are attached, your sweetie might not have the flexibility that you do this year. Be kind, and let him or her adjust to the morphing you. If you are single, a relationship could evolve. Capricorn often can demand a lot.
