Spontaneous plans, offers and proposals will shake up your schedule in exciting ways. Festive events and fun gatherings will keep you active, interested and inspired. Don't be surprised when you are asked to organise a fundraiser or plan a group outing. Take this opportunity to reveal ideas you have been keeping to yourself.

There are a few parties, get-togethers and gatherings going on around you that you will want to be involved in. A housemate is feeling grumpy which is a shame because they're missing out on the merry mood that now fills the air. Let down your hair. It's time to have some fun.

Experiences you are going through now will bring you both pleasure and pain. A new partner will not understand why some celebrations are difficult for you. Even so, you will take part in these gatherings as you don't want to let anyone down. Most activities will be enjoyable. You will pause too, to remember a relative who is no longer with you.

The more fun, festive and flexible your plans happen to be, the happier you will feel. If you are asked to get involved with a community or volunteer activity, don't let a lack of experience or qualifications put you off. People aren't expecting perfection. They will be happy for any kind of assistance you can offer.

A romantic relationship reaches a turning point. Don't be surprised if you start using the words engagement or marriage in your conversations. Hosting a festive meal will be a great way to reconnect with old friends and mix with your favourite people.

Spiritual pursuits will help keep work and financial problems in perspective. Painting, playing music and writing will make your daily life more enjoyable. Youngsters in the family will appreciate your creative ideas. Take this opportunity to get together to decorate your home and spread some festive cheer.

A partner or housemate will be determined to have a good clean-up in readiness for Christmas. You will prefer to seek outside interests that keep you entertained. So unless you have specific tasks to do that you cannot get out of, you will want to keep well out of the way.

An older relative who has been stubbornly ignoring your advice will admit, at last, that there is some sense in what you have been telling them. You might profit financially from a useful tip given to you by a friend. This person often talks rubbish but don't underestimate their views and observations, at this time.

Love is in the air. Developments in a close partnership will put a whole new meaning to your relationship. Are you single and looking for love? You could meet someone special at a Christmas party who sets your imagination running riot.

An intimidating boss might seem to bend a little today and will actually show they have a sense of humour. It's as if they suddenly realise that a smile here and there really won't crack their face. Be careful about sharing details of your private life and close relationships at a party or social gathering.

Jobs are carried out swiftly and efficiently. Friends and colleagues are all happy to help you and a wonderful sense of cooperation will mean a team effort goes smoothly. Someone is arranging a night out with a difference. You will need a strong sense of humour for what awaits you.

An older relative will land on your doorstep with the excuse that they were just passing by. You might worry that they will restrict the fun you had hoped to get out of this day. On the contrary. No matter what their age, they will be keen to join in activities, no matter how noisy they might be.
