Take a hint from your totemic critter. Scorpions can sit beneath a rock for many, many years until the right prey, moving at the right speed comes along. Figure that your air signpals and lovers (Gemini, Libra or Aquarius) are moving way too fast to keep up with. Let `em rip. At least you know how to hang out.

This month, December 1 and 2 will be tricky. You'll lose interest in trivia that used to fascinate you. December 5 and 6, you'll have much more patience for your own eccentricities, but those are days for losing money. Speaking of which, avoid weird expenditure on December 7 and 8. No matter how much you think so-and-so needs a bread machine - hold off. The full moon is a great time for you to have serious and pleasurable times with a loved one. Mostly because your insight is deep but not painful. December 14 and 15, however, you'll have no time for trivia, and very little consistency in your own life. Not a good time for negotiating with Sagittarius or Aries folks. December 16 and 17, you'll be more reasonable. Much more interested in taking care of yourself, too. December 20 and 21, the moon is in your sun sign. Unless you've done all the work ahead of time, no swift moves right now. Everyone else is too suspicious. But you can make them all believe in you, if you can just get on the phone (you can stay in bed). Christmas and Boxing Day are actually terrific for networking, if you can believe that. Think practical, and look to spend time with the boring folks in your life. December 27 and 28 are best spent alone - you have no time for people who have no attention span, but new year's eve, you've got all the time in the world. Great for trying all kinds of new, uh, food and drink.
