FRIDAY, DECEMBER 30, 2005 ♦
I Astro Graph
By Bernice Bede Osol
Friday, Dec. 30, 2005
There’s a possibility that
you could form two unusual
partnerships in the year ahead.
Both of these associations will
be formed to promote something
unique, and their alliances will
prove to be successful.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.
19) - Be mindful of the fact that
the course you set for yourself
today could end up being one
you’re going to be following
for some time to come. Make
sure your route is positive and
productive.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19)
- As of today, you’re going to be
in a unique position where you
will be able to gain substantially
in some manner, not by being
self-seeking but by trying to
help another who is in dire
need.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20)
- Not only is a brand new year
on the horizon, but an entire
new favorable cycle is on the
brink for you as well. It’ll have
something to do with a new
procedure or product you’ll get
involved in.
ARIES (March 21-April
19) Perhaps because of the
holidays, conditions may have
not been ripe for you to fulfill
some of the ambitions you’ve
been harboring, but that should
all change as of today.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) --
It sometimes seems to you that
all of the breaks you are hoping
to get tend to go to the other
guy, but remember, that wheel
is always turning. Your lucky
number is coming up.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20)
- There are some opportunities
around you at this point in time
to develop a second source of
income, so be alert for ways
to add to your resources.
They could come from several
venues.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) --
There is a good chance that you
are going to be forming a new
and exciting association. It will
be with a person who thinks in
different and progressive terms.
You may meet this individual
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -
Favorable changes are on the
horizon again today where your
work is concerned. An avenue of
additional income may suddenly
spring open for you from a least
expected source.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept.
22) -- A mutual interest may
unexpectedly serve as a bonding
agent today that’ll draw you
closer to someone you’ve known
only casually. Soon, however,
you could become inseparable
friends.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -
Because of an unexpected shift
in conditions today, there’s a
good chance you could reverse
a position on something about
which you’ve been unrelenting.
It’ll turn out to be a blessing.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov.
22) lnstead of going to your
usual haunts today, try to get
your friends to explore some
untried places. There’s a chance
something exciting is awaiting
you in uncharted waters.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-
Dec. 21) - An opportunity may
be dropped in your lap today
that could enable you to do
something about increasing
your holdings. The only hitch is
you’re going to have to act on it
without delay.
