WEEKLY RECIPE

WEEK OF DECEMBER 2 TO 8, 2012

THE LUCKIEST SIGNS THIS WEEK: SAGITTARIUS, CAPRICORN, AND AQUARIUS. ARIES You won’t let yourself be taken advan- tage of this week. Making significant changes either at work or in some of your other commitments will enable you to improve your efficiency. TAURUS Your feelings take up a lot of space this week. You are compelled to clarify a complicated love story. You will unex- pectedly receive some form of reward and congratulations. GEMINI You should be able to get most of your work done from home. If you have young children, one of them is going to want their favourite nurse to stay at home to look after them. CANCER Lots of comings and goings are on the horizon. Be sure to plan extra time to get to your destination, whether the journey is for work or for personal reasons. LEO You love luxury and will pull out all the stops in order to make a big impression over the holidays. You might be tempted to replace furniture and appliances on an impulse. VIRGO You show a lot of initiative in one particu- lar project. You’ll take charge in order to ensure that people really understand the direction you wish to take. LIBRA You are suffering from some accumulated fatigue. It is important to slow down, recharge your batteries, and discover some new objectives in your life. This is particularly true if you feel that you have been neglecting your loved ones lately. SCORPIO You are sure to find yourself in very crowded surroundings. What’s more, it wouldn’t be surprising if you have to organize an event involving large num- bers of people. SAGITTARIUS Sometimes it’s good to take a step back. Doing so gives you a more holistic per- spective and it will, ultimately, give you more momentum. CAPRICORN Lady Luck smiles on you this week, so don’t forget to check your lottery tickets. She’ll also be with you in your profession- al and love lives. Some good people will cross your path. AQUARIUS Change brings some intense emotion. At the same time you will benefit from a new life experience that will be extremely profitable for you. You will be able to get closer to a member of the family. PISCES You have to finalize an understanding at work that will have a very positive impact on your long term career. You create a harmonious atmosphere around you, and people trust you implicitly.
