CANCER You bring together family as well as friends. Over the holidays, you successfully unite family members who do not always get along. LEO There is a good chance that you’ll be hosting various receptions and lavishing plenty of attention on your loved ones. Even as a guest, you are generous with your help. VIRGO You enjoy large gatherings this year. You are also the centre of attention when you do some crazy things or make certain comments. LIBRA You are open to the idea of discove- ring new cultures. A person of diffe- rent origins than yours might be pre- sent during the upcoming festivities.
