People look to you for direction. Set the proper tone for a gathering by giving everyone a sincere compliment. Your positive energy is infectious. Instead of quarrelling over past injustices, everyone will treat each other with kindness and consideration. Don't panic when you encounter an emergency. A kitchen mishap should be treated like a big joke. You can always cobble together a meal of odds and ends. The important thing is that you're enjoying time with your loved ones.

Planning a relaxing break is exciting. You're eager to explore a country that has fascinated you since childhood. Start putting money aside to buy souvenirs. Picking up handcrafted items made by locals will be an enjoyable challenge. You should choose pieces you can't find at home. If you have no plans to travel, think about adopting a spiritual practice. Performing a ritual that takes your mind off material matters will be liberating. There's more to life than working and earning.

There's no greater gift than unconditional love. Give thanks to someone who has always accepted you, warts and all. A handwritten note may not seem like a fabulous gift, but it will be cherished for years. Someone may propose an outing that isn't convenient for older members of the group. Propose another arrangement. This should be a time of inclusion. If everybody feels welcome and comfortable, you will have tapped into the festive spirit. Play charades or a board game.

Spending quality time with your amour is strongly advised. Arrange to sneak away for an hour or two with the object of your affection. Are you single? You could meet someone special through a friend of the family. You're deeply attracted to an ambitious person with a dry sense of humour. Fortunately, the feeling is mutual. Your offbeat sensibilities will make a great impression. This could be a match made in heaven if you let down your defences. Open your heart to love.

You'll have a great time organising a big get together. Nothing gives you more pleasure than entertaining your nearest and dearest. It's especially fun discussing old times with your relatives. Everybody might not get along all the time, but you do share an interesting history. This can be a powerful bond, so long as everybody keeps the tone positive. Try not to dwell on old grudges. You have an opportunity to build a happier, healthier future together. Make the most of this miraculous time.

You're in a playful mood, making you a popular figure. Children swarm to you like bees to a flower. This will be a fun time to teach them games. Don't be surprised if powerful memories come bubbling to the surface. Record these thoughts in your diary. They can be later turned into a story, song or poem. You might not have time to carry out some chores that have been piling up. Try not to be too hard on yourself. Even a diligent person like you needs a break.

Enjoying family time makes mundane problems seem far away. Lately, it's been difficult balancing your personal and professional lives. It's a relief to be able to fully focus on the domestic sphere. This peaceful interlude will give you the courage to set healthy boundaries at work. It's important for you to have prolonged periods of rest to be productive. If your job doesn't allow this, it may be time to find another line of work. Don't worry. When one door closes, another opens.

You'll have a fun time rubbing elbows with a variety of people. Be sure to attend a festive gathering. You may not feel especially social when setting out, but you'll quickly get into the spirit of things upon arrival. Be careful not to overindulge in food and drink. Allow yourself a small indulgence and then make healthy choices. You'll want to enjoy this experience to the fullest. Sugar, fat and alcohol can take a toll on your system. Enjoy these treats sparingly.

Having comfortable conversations with your favourite people makes this a great day. You sometimes get in trouble when you tell jokes in mixed company. Many people don't understand your irreverent humour. That's why friends and family are so important to you. They not only understand your subversive side, but they celebrate it. A childish temper tantrum should be nipped in the bud. The best way to suppress such an outburst is to ignore the troublemaker. They'll soon change tactics and everybody can go back to having fun.

Your dry humour will be very popular. It's always difficult bringing a large group of people together. Everybody feels like they are walking on eggshells. After cracking a few jokes, you'll put the group at ease. Resist the temptation to make fun of relatives, especially the more sensitive members of the group. Nobody likes feeling singled out. Watching a light hearted comedy can also be a great way to generate a festive atmosphere. This is a time when people can put their differences aside.

This is a lovely time to stay hidden from public view. Spending quality time with your nearest and dearest will replenish your spiritual batteries. Take this opportunity to enjoy creative pursuits that require deep concentration. Painting, writing and playing music will make your problems vanish into thin air. Don't get drawn into a debate about religion or politics. The last thing you want is to spoil a peaceful interlude with a senseless argument. Stick to subjects that don't create controversy.

Take this opportunity to build castles in the air. Your imagination is vivid. Launching a creative project will be rewarding. Break out the art supplies. You'll have fun playing around with colours, shapes and textures. Children may be eager to help. Give them little jobs like cutting, pasting and sorting. It's important to find ways to bring people together in a spirit of harmony. Don't let an opinionated relative dominate the discussion with impassioned lectures.
