Preparations for the festivities can feel somewhat overwhelming for you this month, particularly if you are caught up in feeling the need to have everything just so. Would anyone, apart from you, notice that the decorations on the tree are not perfectly symmetrical? Let go of some of your high standards in order to make the celebrations about enjoying yourself rather than about creating a good impression and standing out from the crowd.
Feeling eager to please family and friends can easily lead to you rushing around trying to do more than is necessary and exhausting yourself before any social gathering. To make sure you are at your most alluring by the time the party begins allow yourself plenty of time to just relax and do nothing. Recharging your batteries in this way will make you far more enjoyable company than being the most accomplished host in town who leaves the party early to get some rest. Let your hair down and have fun in the festive season. It doesn’t have to perfect to be pleasurable, but making the occasion a pleasure is just perfect.
Love
Something or someone will make your spine tingle and heart leap this month. Emotional closeness with your sweetheart can feel particularly sweet with a lot of depth in your feelings. Give each other some space as well, otherwise the intensity can feel pressured, especially around the full moons at the start and end of the month.
Career
More responsibility is landing on your desk as colleagues disappear early for the Christmas break. See it more as an opportunity than a burden to answer the phone for a peer or a superior. You could come out tops as the one who saves the day whilst the rest of the team are away.
Money
If you have already purchased some perfect presents, is there any need to find more gifts? Find other ways apart from spending money to show your affection towards those that matter the most to you. Sometimes spending time in the pleasure of your company is far more rewarding for everyone concerned.
