Rise and Shine on Dec. 27 (there’s nothing wrong with softening an unyielding position. It shows that you’re willing to listen), Dec. 28 (friends who assume you’ll automatically side with them are in for a rude awakening), Dec. 29 (you’re committed to doing what’s right no matter who’s been wronged), and Jan. 2 (find the courage to be cautiously optimistic and you’ll see an upturn in fortunes. This revolutionary development may even give you a fresh outlook on life)

Duck and Cover on Dec. 30 (the reason for the surprise “gotcha” is because you were asleep at the wheel. You have nobody but yourself to blame), Dec. 31 (don’t say anything that can – and will – be used against you), and Jan. 1 (you don’t like vulnerability which is why you’ll be impatient with someone else’s neediness today. Instead of getting icy, try being supportive and protective. It will make you a better person)
