Star signs.

Capricorn 12/22-1/20

DECEMBER You might have a mental to-do list a mile long. But file it away for now, and enjoy the holidays (and your birthday!). Save your energy juice for later, when cool yule stuff can't distract.

JANUARY Party's over! Time to unwind. Take a slightly selfish twist, and take care of Numero Uno--you! You know all that holiday moolah you scored? Muster up the urge to splurge. Go for a nazzy new outfit, try highlights on your locks, get your 10 little piggies painted.

Aquarius 1/21-2/18

DECEMBER People might peg you as a party pooper--you're not your usual social self. You're at a place where you need some space, so tell the posse not to take it personally.

JANUARY Stop putting so much stock in other people's opinions of you. As long as you value who you are, you'll always be worth a zillion bucks.

Pisces 2/19-3/20

DECEMBER Your social star is shining brighter than blinking lights. Plan on lots of party-hopping this season. You'll mingle with plenty of pals--old, new and even the long-lost.

JANUARY Stop whining, and do something about it! About what? Whatever it is that's got you so wigged out. You have more control over this sticky sitch than you realize.

Aries 3/21-4/19

DECEMBER Something pressing--a major project?--is keeping you super swamped and preoccupied. Be sure to pencil at least a little time into your paced schedule

JANUARY You could stand to buckle down a bit. Continue to focus on excelling in school, but put in home and fam time too. That doesn't mean you have to live like a caged bird--feel free to take flight now and then.

Taurus 4/20-5/20

DECEMBER YOU made a mistake--now what? Don't dwell. There's a whole New Year ahead. Consider it a clean slate.

JANUARY You're scoring props from the parents, courtesy of recent A+ school performance. They're proud, and you've gained way more than awesome report card scores--you've also earned some major respect.

Gemini 5/21-6/21

DECEMBER Gift-giving dollars all dried up? Tap your private savings stash, negotiate an advance in allowance, or get creative with handmade gifts. It's the thought--net the cash--that counts.

JANUARY Having a tough time balancing fam stuff and school stress? Master the art of balance by getting the fam involved in your studies. Get Mom to show you sine and cosine, and Dad to help with language arts.

Cancer 6/22-7/22

DECEMBER Ooh, looks like somebody cute has caught you under the mistletoe. Go slow. Have fun flirting, but don't all-out push for official BF-GF status just yet.

JANUARY Forgot about that boy already? You're wing for something, but not his attention. You're in the heat of competition on the field or in school.

Leo 7/23-8/22

DECEMBER Going to Grandma's for the holidays? You might have to take some homework with you. Bummer, but you can successfully see-saw school and yule.

JANUARY Your social life is soaring, and you're sooo likely to make a major crush connection this month. Don't look so hard for him, but keep your eyes wide open when he does cross your path. You know what they say about ore being blind.

Virgo 8/23-9/22

DECEMBER Brrr--it's cold outside, and you're perfectly content curling up on the couch with a blanket, hot cocoa and your DVD collection. But put on that party dress at least once--you might even crash into a cute crush.

JANUARY Even though you often have a tendency to hyper-focus on the school and social scene, your family is getting tons of attention from you these days. It's really cool of you to bond with the sibs and make your parents a priority. But remember--the books and buds need you too.

Libra 9/23-10/23

DECEMBER The folks are likely to put you to work because company is coming! Your fa-la-la-la-la will be infiltrated with family members. Have fun getting better acquainted with the out-of-towners.

JANUARY Libra lady, you are in social-butterfly mode. And you're not sitting around waiting for the fun to happen. You are the party, and friends are flocking to you. Oh, and so are more than your fair share of supa-fine fellas.

Scorpio 10/24-11/22

DECEMBER Don't overdose on gingerbread! For a healthful keep sugar consumption low and get lots of sleep. Savor those visions of sugar plums dancing in your head!

JANUARY How admirable of you to have such an ambitious bunch of New Year's resolutions. But whoa! You could be on self-improvement overloud. Whittle that list down to make it a little more do-able.

Sagittarius 11/23-12/21

DECEMBER You seem to be getting a headstart on your New Year's resolutions. Out with old habits, in with the new-and-improved. Enlist the help of your close gals pals to help you stick to your convictions.

JANUARY Oh, dear. Bud battles abound, and it looks like it's all about communication breakdown. Clear up silly misunderstandings, and things will turn out to be less complicated than they seem.
