- Horoscope for Dec. 29
- December 29, 2010
- CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Before pushing yourself beyond your limits, be absolutely certain that what you are doing is what you really want. Otherwise, you could end up kicking yourself for getting involved. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) — Getting in a few digs about people you dislike might make you feel vindicated, but it will do nothing for your image in the eyes of your audience, especially if your comments are unfair. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) — Don’t give excessive consideration to someone who is a dominating, older individual. It is likely to be a person who will take advantage of your giving nature and push you to the limits.
