Horoscope

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Monday, Dec. 26, 2011: Expect to flip from being very creative to practical this year. Both sides are part of you and can work as a team. If attached, your sweetie might not have the flexibility that you do this year. If single, a relationship could evolve. You will need time to see if the bond will be valid once this period ends. Capricorn often can demand a lot. A baby born today before 9:14 a.m. Pacific time, has a sun and moon in Capricorn. After that time, the moon is in Aquarius.
