Okay the plans and ideas other people are making might seem far fetched and idealistic. To tell them so would destroy their enthusiasm. No matter how crazy some of the things you are told today might sound, keep your thoughts to yourself. Disparaging words could throw cold water on someone else's dreams. A spot of diplomacy and sensitivity is necessary in all relationships now!

You will gain help and cooperation from other people if you provide the same in return. Relationships go from strength to strength because you put effort into reaching new understandings with your partner. If single, an early festive celebration provides ample opportunity to broaden your circle of friends and meet some fresh new faces. It is a day when the real you shines through.

To avoid disappointment, don't take all promises made to you today, too seriously. A friend or colleague might over estimate their capabilities. If someone lets you down, it is not because they have done so deliberately. What you must tell yourself is people are trying their hardest to please you. If their good intentions go wrong it would be a shame to let this spoil an otherwise good relationship.

You have so much energy to burn today you hardly know what to do with it. Try to channel yourself into something constructive. The chance of wasting time is likely if you give in to a restless feeling with no particular plans or direction. Why not volunteer to help someone out who is having a difficult time? That way you will have done something worthwhile and you will have helped take the pressure off them.

If closely linked to another, you could be making plans to spend time with your special someone. Single? Cupid has you in his sights when what starts as a casual conversation with a stranger could lead to firm plans to see each other again. New romantic horizons open up now and all relationships gather momentum. It's a day to enjoy romantic pleasures. Emotional rapport is gratifying.

So often you end up doing things you don't want to do because it pleases others and keeps the peace. If you don't share your feelings, people will never know how much you are having to force yourself to cooperate. Being honest could make all the difference now. People will change their plans to suit you once they know what you are thinking. There is a lot of goodwill in the air. Be sure to take advantage.

A relative or neighbour who isn't known for their level headedness actually offers some good advice. Sometimes it takes someone with imagination and sensitivity to notice what isn't apparent on the surface. If you follow their suggestion this could help settle a problem in a close relationship. An awkward incident at work will be forgotten if you pretend you haven't noticed anything's amiss!

If a muddle is linked with joint finances, don't be too quick to blame your partner. Once you've added it all up, it could be six of one and half a dozen of the other! You may not be in the mood for festive frivolities but mixing with colleagues outside business hours will do a lot to help your relationships. It is a good time to put aside any differences you may have had with others and to let peace and goodwill prevail!

The weeks ahead will be more enjoyable if you let others know what you want from life in the future. If you feel there should be more equality in a close relationship, suggest how you might arrange this. You and those sharing your world today are in complete accord and you will enjoy each other's company. Long term plans are made. You feel as if you are starting to move forward.

Loving vibrations surround you; if relationships have been cool, you now see a melting of the ice. The clouds roll back and the sun shines through. Both tension and conflict vanish and you feel more relaxed and sociable. Any gestures of affection you show others will be returned in full. For once, allow your emotions to guide your actions and enjoy the extra sparkle this adds to your relationships!

The weeks ahead will find you mixing with new people. A female or gay friend's support could be instrumental in helping you get some personal plans off the ground. Despite your need to be independent, it will be another person who sets you on the road to happiness and success. Let them take the driver's seat and you won't regret it. Use your imagination in positive ways, when making festive arrangements.

You need to be practical and pragmatic; some of the ideas you dream up today will be too costly and time consuming to implement, but not all your notions are far fetched and fanciful. Sharing your private dreams with people who care for you will bring some to fruition. If you are part of a duo, an in-law is in a helpful mood. Don't hesitate to take them up on their offer, should you need some assistance.
