Horoscopes for December 5 – 11

By Patricia El Koury

Aries—You still have a little time left before you can shout au revoir Aries. You know that stigma Aries have for loving to start things, but not always finishing? You might want to complete your current workload before checking out. Sure, there’s a bright shiny thing just around the corner, but stave off the temptation to devour it just yet. Your roadtrip song-scope is “Drive” by The Cars and “Lake Charles” by Lucinda Williams.

Taurus—Mess with the bull you get the…what was it again Taurus? Uhg, whatever. Tie that red bandanna to your combat boot and kick some bleep this week. No, not someone’s badonkadonk! Think more like papers, presentations, projects. Try not to let the assignment sheet stifle your creativity. Its better to turn in something you actually like rather than what you think the prof wants. Your roadtrip song-scope is “Don’t Stop Believing” by Journey and “Surrender” by Cheap Trick.

Gemini—Being extra nice to someone this week Gemini? If you are trying to befriend someone a bit prickly, don’t mistake their attitude for meanness. They’re just not used to people being nice to them for no reason. In different news, try to commit to attending an event someone has invited you to. It’ll give you something to look forward to and you’ll end up having a blast. Your roadtrip song-scopes are “Take it Back” by Pink Floyd and “Pale Blue Eyes” by the Velvet Underground.

Cancer—Use reflective surfaces to your advantage Cancer. Instead of squealing when people sneak up on you, be watchful of window reflections, shadows, changes in atmosphere. You’ll surprise people with your new sense of awareness. Plus it can be a fun game to drive off the doldrums. Maybe nobody will sneak up on you after all, but won’t it be amusing to pretend? Your roadtrip song-scopes are “America” by Simon and Garfunkel and “Seminole Wind” by John Anderson.

Leo—You’re feeling rather smitten this week Leo. Someone in your social circle has gotten your attention and you can’t get enough of them. You’re a master of creative dates, so why not ask them to hang out? They’re returning the feelings so don’t be afraid of rejection. Your roadtrip song-scopes are “Xanadu” by Rush and “You Don’t Know How it Feels” by Tom Petty.

Virgo—The upcoming holidays have you buzzing Virgo. Organizing cards to send, friends to see, and gift giving will occupy much of your thoughts. Don’t forget to attend to your regular work this week too though! Papers and projects need to be polished off before you send them out. Your roadtrip song-scopes are “100 Games of Solitaire” by Concrete Blonde and “Jackson” by Johnny Cash and June Carter.

Libra—Get ready for the final heave ho Libra. All that time you invested in people and projects is about to come to a temporary wrap. Make sure you’ve checked in with authority figures and underlings before you head out though. They are relying on you to provide some much needed information. Your roadtrip song-scopes are “Always on My Mind” by Willie Nelson and “Fire and Rain” by James Taylor.

Scorpio—Feeling a tad tired this week Scorpio? Your workload suddenly increased (or perhaps caught up with you), but you are likely to come out on top. Late nights and calls to your favorite pizza place will tide you over until the work is done. Your roadtrip song-scopes are “Rock You Like a Hurricane” by The Scorpions and “Patience” by Guns n Roses.

Sagittarius—Trying to woo someone new Sagittarius? You may have been trying too hard to be smooth the last time you encountered them. Next time around, just be your usual awesome self. Your natural ability to be comfortably entertaining is better than all the candlelight and smoke and mirrors combined. Your roadtrip song-scopes are “Come Sail Away” by Styx and “Simple Man” by Lynyrd Skynyrd.

Capricorn—Well aren’t you just a ball of fun Capricorn? Between all the delirious giggling, try to focus on what needs to be done. While your light spirit is needed and appreciated, you still have some things to hammer out before the week is over. Your roadtrip song-scopes are “Shooting Star” by Bad Company and “Wanted Dead or Alive” by Bon Jovi.

Aquarius—A new opportunity has come knocking Aquarius. Don’t let it pass! Someone has finally noticed your hard work and is prepared to extend a congratulatory hand. Take them up on their offer for anything pertaining to internships, new job titles, or other activities that could boost your resume. Your roadtrip song-scopes are “Your Love” by The Outfield and “Little Wing” by Jimi Hendrix.

Pisces—The sound of jingle bells may just be the only thing you can hear this week Pisces. You’ve got a bit more work to do before stepping out though. Make sure you tie up any loose ends this week before turning the page. Your roadtrip song-scopes are “Like a Hurricane” by Neil Young and “Carolina in the Pines” by Michael Martin Murphy.
