(Capricorn, December 22 to January 19: Ready for some fireworks? Good, because there's a whole bunch on the way. Today's frenetic energy will urge you to make some changes with regard to your goals for the future, which certainly could mean that you'll feel the need to begin associating with a whole new peer group. If that's the case, try to ease away from your current crew gently -- or offer to take them along.)
(Aquarius, January 20 to February 18: Today's momentum is making it seem all the more urgent to get the show on the road. Now this could mean that you're preparing to storm into your boss's office in the morning and make some demands -- but think about that. You know how authority figures react to ultimatums, right? And it's not usually all that well, is it? Consider a subtler tactic.)
(Pisces, February 19 to March 20: Prepare yourself. The more you've been thinking about doing something 'different' lately -- and the more restricted, controlled and constrained you've been feeling -- the more amazingly erratic your behavior has seemed to the people around you. That's not a reason to stop yourself, however. Every now and then, everyone needs to let go. It's officially your turn, and your turn has only just started. Photograph Source, Kayt Jones Photography. Until next week!)

(Canada is celebrating its 142nd anniversary of Confederation today... On June 20, 1868, a proclamation signed by the Governor General, Lord Monck, called upon all Her Majesty's loving subjects throughout Canada to join in the celebration of the anniversary of the formation of the union of the British North America provinces in a federation under the name of Canada on July 1st.) 
(Congratulations to the finalist of this year's Canada Day Poster Challenge, 15 year old Allison Forseille from Saskatchewan (Saskatoon). In her words Allison describes her poster: "The cheering fans are not only welcoming the world and Olympians to Canada, but they are also cheering for the pure beauty that our country has to offer. In my poster I also depict cultural diversity in Canada by clothing the fans in the colours of other countries." Congratulations, Allison!
