You have some ideas on how to celebrate the festive season but others may not be very supportive. You could be surprised by some people's objections. Rather than be discouraged by a lack of interest for new plans, accept it as a challenge and be prepared to sell your ideas with confidence.

You have so much energy and you will want to feel you are channelling this in a useful direction. You are always looking for ways to make better use of your time. Bring your attention to areas where you would like to see positive results. This too is where you should be directing your energy.

There's a tense atmosphere in the home after a recent misunderstanding. Someone will show signs of wanting to talk and this time they are listening. You can be open about your feelings without them taking offence as they are prone to do. You will feel relieved that your family are making an effort to get on better now.

Someone has something on their mind and this could make them careless about other people's feelings. Don't take everything they say to heart. Although others may not be watching their tongues, at least if you're careful about what you say, you will know you haven't said anything to hurt anyone.

A farfetched financial or business proposition will be discarded the moment you hear it but it will provide you with some amusement. A loved one's unthinking comment will cause tension in the home. Before responding be careful that your own words won't add fuel to the fire.

If you have the space you will be happy to work from home. You feel more relaxed in your approach to the job and you get to spend more time with the family. Work with the grain of what is already happening. You're hoping this will be a permanent feature afterwards.

You've been feeling sorry for yourself and a part of the reason for this is that you've been spending more time indoors than out. Get outside into the fresh air and take some gentle exercise. Even if life has been hard for you lately, force yourself to meet up with a friend. Take positive steps to increase your outside commitments.

Changes in the workplace will be to your benefit. They will not have been anticipated but they will work in your favour. There is something going on behind the scenes that you aren't yet aware of. When this is brought out into the open you will be delighted with what it implies.

You might be tempted to take someone up on an exciting offer but pause before you do. You don't want to make a hasty decision you could later regret. A friend or relative from a distance will have some interesting suggestions on how you might add a little festivity to your virtual celebrations this Christmas.

You aren't as a rule too concerned about what other people might think about your decisions and actions. If you're happy with what you are doing, that's good enough for you but for some reason today you want to make a good impression and you will be influenced by what someone has to say.

A youngster in the family seems confused and restless. You aren't the only one who has noticed a change in their behaviour. You feel worried but this isn't the time to push them into making explanations or confessions. Be gentle and let them know they can approach you if ever they need someone to talk to.

A friend or neighbour will share a secret and the moment they do, you know they are embarrassed at having mentioned it. You can reassure them you won't pass it on to anyone, but what you won't tell them is that what they have shared with you is already common knowledge. It would hurt them too much to know.
