Happy Birthday for Tuesday, Dec. 24, 2024: You are sensitive, responsible and compassionate. You respect the past and what it has to offer. This year has been a time of recognition and acknowledgment. Next year you will finish a nine-year cycle and let go of what is no longer relevant in your life.

• Aries ★★★

  March 21-April 19

  You feel pulled between feeling friendly and outgoing on the one hand, and yet attracted to the desire to be alone on the other hand. At different times, we all have these contradictions. Therefore, be careful about the promises you make or whatever you agree to. Be realistic. Tonight: You’re noticed.

• Taurus ★★★

  April 20-May 20

  Your desire to travel and explore the world and reach out for exciting adventure is tempered by obligations to a friend or a group. Or possibly someone older is critical of you or holding you back in some way. You can handle this dance; you are the financial wizard of the zodiac. Tonight: Learn.

• Gemini ★★★★

  May 21-June 20

  You feel playful, upbeat and energetic. However, parents, authority figures and older family members have requirements that you have to meet. And it seems that whatever these requirements are, they might clip your wings a bit. Look for a happy compromise. Enjoy what you can, and meet the expectations of others. Tonight: Check your finances.

• Cancer ★★★

  June 21-July 22

  Be cooperative with partners and close friends today. And be patient with others, because you need more sleep right now. And if you’re not getting extra sleep, you might be cranky or moody. (“Me?” “Yes, you.”) Tonight: Cooperate.

• Leo ★★★

  July 23-Aug. 22

  Playful opportunities and invitations from friends, groups and organizations might come your way. However, financial restrictions and obligations could limit your chance to enjoy these social outings. This could be a disappointment. Fortunately, your focus on work and relations with partners is excellent. Tonight: Get organized.

• Virgo ★★★

  Aug. 23-Sept. 22

  Today it’s tough balancing your need for play, fun diversions and entertaining adventures with your obligations to others. You are caught in the classic scenario of “what the large print giveth, the small print taketh away.” Good luck. Tonight: Socialize.

• Libra ★★★

  Sept. 23-Oct. 22

  You might have to delay travel plans and chances to explore exciting opportunities because of work or health obligations, or perhaps because of limitations based on health issues or taking care of a pet. This is one of those days where you can’t have it all. Tonight: Relax.

• Scorpio ★★★

  Oct. 23-Nov. 21

  You can benefit from the wealth and resources of others right now. Gifts and goodies might come your way. However, restrictions, perhaps with your kids, might cloud the picture with obligations you can’t ignore. Tonight: Discussions.

• Sagittarius ★★★

  Nov. 22-Dec. 21

  Today you want the freedom to do your own thing, especially to relate to those who are close to you, as well as members of the general public. Nevertheless, responsibilities related to home and family will restrict your actions and choices. Cope with this as best you can given these restrictive parameters. Tonight: Check your money.

• Capricorn ★★★

  Dec. 22-Jan. 19

  Even though issues related to your job and health are promising at the moment, in another part of the forest, job changes, residential moves and difficulty in dealing with relatives and neighbors could create some problems. You will have to make choices. Tonight: You’re strong.

• Aquarius ★★★

  Jan. 20-Feb. 18

  Financial limitations might restrict you today in your social options, especially when it comes to fun diversions with friends, exploring the arts and the entertainment world, sports events and fun activities with children. Find ways to have fun that cost less. Don’t increase your debt. Tonight: Seek privacy.

• Pisces ★★★

  Feb. 19-March 20

  Family gatherings and interactions with relatives and people at home will be positive and friendly today. Nevertheless, your laid-back, easygoing style could be at odds with someone who is taking control and over planning things. You knew this would happen. Do what you can to keep the peace. Tonight: Be friendly.
