Born today, you are not always the most consistent and reliable of individuals, though you are certainly not the kind to undervalue these traits or work intentionally to disappoint anyone. The fact is that you are driven to pursue your own interests and there are times, as a result, that you calculate that you will be unable to fulfill some promise to another because you are going down a path that takes you in a new and likely incompatible direction. This can certainly result in some tension between you and those to whom you have promised something and failed to deliver, but you can always undo the damage at a later date and fulfill such promises -- if you're willing to put another's needs or desires before your own -- and you're sure to find that this really isn't all that hard to do!

Though it is difficult for most others to anticipate what you may or may not do under any given circumstances, anyone with whom you choose to have a long-term romantic relationship is likely to be exempt from this, as you're one who, in love, will do what you have promised and more, come what may. Ironically or not, you can be quite a steadfast and faithful lover!

THURSDAY, DECEMBER 12
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Think before you speak today or you're likely to find yourself in hot water -- and it may be difficult to undo the damage in the time allowed.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Common sense may be in short supply today, but you can apply it generously to a situation you will soon be able to control single-handedly.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You don't have to be the life of the party in order to spread your unique brand of joy to others. The simplest contact can work wonders today.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Others are likely to rely on you for more than you had anticipated today, and your personal burden is likely to increase some as a result.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- How many things can you do at once today? The quality of your efforts is more important than the quantity, so don't be taken in by such questions.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Others may be watching you with a critical eye, but you are confident that this is only because they cannot keep up with you -- for now.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You can inspire someone else with the simplest tale of a past success. There's more to this than you know that should soon be apparent.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You may not have much of import to accomplish during the first part of the day, so you can concentrate on preparation for later on.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You're likely to hear criticism today in an unusual fashion, interpreting it as a kind of compliment. Much that you do is quite admirable!
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- Take care that you don't come on too strong today, or the very people you are trying to win over will be driven further away. Tone it down.
