It is time, Taurus, to try new horizons, to open the door to the tiny rut you've crept into, open that door wide, wide, wide, and embrace the seas of change.

Now, change is scary. Terrifying, actually. But not in your case, not now.  

For now, you have an opportunity for change. And it promises to advance you. Out of the personal and family and love traumas and into your own, independent light.

That family member you are worried about? That is not going to change. You cannot change them.  

Enough drama for one year. 2012 will bring peace, prosperity, and all you need and cherish. You have worked hard for such rewards, and you are to enjoy them now.

But your emphasis on the personal will receive a surprise - 2012 is all about career! And you hitting it big.

To clear your head - there really has been a lot of drama, particularly in terms of your family, and you have been hurt - try to get away for the holiday.

On Christmas Eve the awesome Capricorn Moon occurs in your ninth house of travel and the faraway.

The pull toward that exotic hotspot will be irresistible...

Your ninth house rules these areas:

Travel

Broadening your horizons

Expanding your viewpoint

Opening up your mind

Education, publishing, law 

Far away friends, contacts, and places

International anything

Other cities - counties - states - countries - planets - galaxies

Other belief systems   

Learning and exploring

Publishing - on a massive scale 

Dreaming big

So clear your head any way you can (physical exercise also helps) and get ready for a whole new year to begin.

Change your mindset.

Through the month of January you have a lot of positives in your ninth house: the almighty, life-producing Sun, that awesome Capricorn Moon on Saturday, December 24, transformational Pluto, and brilliant Mercury as of Sunday, January 8.

The world really is your oyster - you will see. Expect a rise in your reputation, with offers of promotions and more work.

It will only be up to you as to how much you want to partake. As I said, you've been very focused on family and the personal, and worried about money, and so this will be quite a switch.

From deprivation to plenty!

Oh Taurus, you have endured SO much.

Just bear in mind that you need to tread carefully - to cross every t and dot every i - throughout the month.

But first, let us get through the holidays! Get away if you can, clear your mind, and get ready for a whole new year of success to begin.

I guarantee you will be happily surprised!  

For the next five months lotto lucky Jupiter is direct in your sign of Taurus. It goes direct, as a matter of fact, on Christmas Day, Sunday, December 25. And does not stop in Taurus until June 11.

You are invincible. Unstoppable. You are - Wonder Woman! (or Wonder Man).

As I said, now is the time to achieve great goals and dreams.

With Saturn set to stay in your sixth house unti October 2012, you will have to get it organized around the house, and also get your work affairs into order, and your health regimen. These are all grownup things to do. Saturn loves giving us grownup things to do.

These are your only chores for most of 2012 then - not bad, considering what it could have been!

Remember, it's all about perspective. I leave you with this overheard conversation. A pause for different perspectives.

Overheard on Greenwich Avenue this afternoon:

Mother: "Well, you can't have everything on your list."

Son: "Why not?"

Mother: "Because things aren't as rosy as they used to be."

Son: "Okay, then I just want the BMW so I can drive myself to school."

Mother: "We were hoping you'd be okay with that."  

It's either that or be embarrassed by your husband's relatives on your front porch - it's always something. So forget all that, and fly, fly, fly towards your greatest dreams.  

And enjoy the holidays and this ongoing link from me to you!
