The last full moon of the year earned its name from the long, cold nights and the deepening of winter's stillness in the Northern Hemisphere. This will be the supermoon that illuminates the crystalline frost that shimmers in the serene silences of the landscape and of the mind. Even in the frost, love glows blue and gives enough light to see by.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You're on a roll with a clear head, taking deliberate steps. You'll handle one thing at a time and finish strong. What makes this possible? Good rest. Good habits. Be sure to give credit where credit is due.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). If you place too much expectation on one person or subject, life falls out of balance. Spread your attention around. Take breaks, change the scenery and allow for "time wasting" distraction, because novelty keeps your energy high.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You've worked hard. You've earned your skills. Now all you have to do is trust them. Use what you have. It's enough. Confidence isn't pretending, it's remembering you've done this before.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). While you chew on a hard truth, a white lie is on your lips. Social niceties can be the most compassionate way to go. All will come to the truth eventually, each adjusting to reality at their own pace.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). An old fear may find its way back. This fear is not the enemy; it just wants a minute. You're older and wiser now. You can listen to what fear has to tell you and take what's useful. Once it feels heard, it quiets down or maybe leaves entirely.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Whether someone comes through for you is besides the point. Regardless, real security comes from your own integrity and preparation. Even the kindest person can fail you, so build your peace on what you can control -- your own choices.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Human chemistry is unpredictable. Throw the theories out the window and go for a real-life experience. Data comes from presence, not speculation. Meetings, rehearsals, collaborations and relationships all reveal their truth only when lived.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You'll notice people around you dragging today -- tired, distracted and stuck in their heads. Then there's you, breaking the spell with humor, kindness and your superstar smile. Wherever you go, your energy changes things.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You're usually quick to pick up on things, but today you're downright telepathic. A look, a tone, a pause -- that's all it takes. You'll read the room perfectly and respond like a pro.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Mild feelings like boredom or awkwardness can be tricky to overcome because they don't come with the motivational adrenaline rush of hotter feelings like fear or passion. You'll have to take charge to move your mood, and so you will.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You're ready to take a risk, especially with your work, which deserves more exposure. Show the world what you can do, and let the world show you the needs and niches you can fill.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). People take your agreement for granted. Dare to be a little disagreeable today. Throw in a "no" or a "maybe" or an "I'll think about it." If you always say "yes," then agreement is not really a decision; it's a default.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (Dec. 4). Welcome to your Year of Mastery and Reward. What you've practiced for years suddenly clicks. You rise to meet the moment and exceed it. One new influence makes a huge difference. Look for the spark in bright eyes, quick wit and a flash of imagination. You'll spot it the moment it looks back at you -- fire! More highlights: a sweet financial comeback, joyful reunions and renovations that bring ease to daily life. Virgo and Aries adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 19, 42, 16, 5 and 30.

CELEBRITY PROFILES: Between entertainment partnerships and business diversification, Jay-Z is reportedly back in the studio working on new music. The Sagittarius mogul is, true to form, restless for reinvention and unwilling to let any success be his final statement. He's fueled by curiosity, expansion and the philosophical urge to make sense of power, legacy and time. Jupiter and Uranus in partner-oriented Libra indicate a talent for making beneficial alliances.
