Horoscopes: Tuesday, Dec. 3, 2024

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You show up and deliver, constant as a machine, but from the heart and with the full force of your spirited personality, with results that no machine could ever produce. You’ll balance your work and family with such skill that you’ll have others asking you how you do it.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). When the show runs right, the spotlight follows your performance. When the operator is asleep on the job, you have to either go where the light is and deliver from there or work in the shadows. But your audience needs you, so adjust and shine.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). It’s a weird reality: Not doing things can take a lot more energy than doing them. Fighting impulses and wrangling your way out of bad habits is tough. Honor and reward yourself for exhibits of restraint.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). You’ve an excellent sense for how to give and take appropriately. If someone gives too much, you suspect them of trying to control you. Colleagues will rise to your high standards of integrity and fair play.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). As you navigate over, under or around the obstacles, not only will you move forward but you will also create yourself in the role of the problem-solving hero. It’s an identity that comes together without one thought about image.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Don’t fear the problems that come with togetherness. If you’re facing life together, problems are inevitable. Whether the problem drives you apart or galvanizes you as a unit has more to do with attitude than the actual problem.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). If your life is a tapestry, what are the patterns you’d like to see on it? What would keep things beautiful and interesting for you? You will imagine, claim and begin a sequence of actions with the potential to create some impressive outcomes.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). It’s as if you’re back at zero and you must achieve a fresh set of points to push into the next frame of the game. You’ll do it because it’s what you set out to do, and that’s reason enough for you.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). There’s a certain glamour that goes along with being you, and you’re working that to its greatest advantage. You don’t take your advantages for granted. Not using your talents is an act of ingratitude. Be you, unapologetically.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You hold allure for someone who doesn’t know you well. Make it last by staying a bit mysterious. When it’s time to make your move, do the unexpected. It keeps the attraction interesting.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You have an instinct to take the less experienced under your protective wing before teaching them to fly. Some do this from a place of ego — it makes them feel good to know more than another person. You wish only for the other person’s success.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). To focus on what you don’t have would only distract you from what you do have, which is everything you need to take it to the next level. Try not to think too far ahead because this is a step-by-step process.
TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Dec. 3). There’s a daring venture requiring you to educate yourself and commit to a challenging practice. With dedication and kindness, your path is illuminated and you’ll step confidently, leaving a lasting mark, especially with those who cherish your influence most. More highlights: Travel, new friends and self-discipline that amounts to a result you’ve wanted for years. Virgo and Taurus adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 12, 2, 20, 14 and 17.
