Horoscopes: Wednesday, Dec. 4, 2024

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You’ll come to realize you don’t need someone as much as you once thought, and paradoxically, this self-sufficiency makes you all the more desirable. Your independence has an undeniable allure, attracting attention and admiration.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Someone who genuinely loves you will remind you of your strengths, highlighting all the things you do right. Embrace these affirmations, as they reflect just how meaningful you are to those who care.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Emotions rise like a wave. Instead of tamping them down, channel them into something expressive. Whether it’s art, exercise or play, this raw energy can lead to breakthrough ideas.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Be early because it shows enthusiasm, and there are opportunities that will only go to the first ones on the scene. Also, giving yourself a head start lets your charm shine in the peaceful ease that only preparedness brings.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). It’s a good time to remind people what you do and how you do it differently than the others. You can pull attention slyly or obviously, and both are headed to the same aim of helping all. Let your impact speak.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). An exciting person is drawn to you, captivated by the intelligence and insight you bring. They’ll take notice of your unique perspective, and this connection has the potential to spark something truly engaging.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Love doesn’t thrive under the weight of obligation. The correct contribution will not feel difficult to give. Go with heart and integrity, giving at the intersection of what’s needed and what feels good and right to you.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). It’s tempting to stick with people you know, but life is better when you include those you don’t know and strive to understand people who are very different from you. Reach out in warmth. The kindness you extend lifts everyone around you.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Though you project calm and poise, there’s a fiery, untamed energy stirring within you. Others will pick up on it and feel drawn to your dynamic spirit, sensing a depth and intrigue that keeps them captivated.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You’re inspiring someone to grow into their best self, though ultimately, they’ll have to put in the work themselves. Remain supportive, but remember that real transformation requires their commitment, not your intervention.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Every savvy businessperson knows that scarcity drives up demand, and you’ll use this principle in your social life today. By giving just a bit less, you’ll find people clamoring for more of your time and attention.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Your social network is a treasure cultivated over years. Some of your relationships have sustained decades. Your ties will strengthen further through the upcoming events. You’ll be laying the groundwork for that today.
TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Dec. 4). Your approach to relationships sets the tone. You risk openness, give your trust and proceed in mutual respect. Your year sparkles with distinct and meaningful connections reflected in fun dates, insightful conversations and lasting commitments. More highlights: something new to celebrate in your family, and projects that bring about optimal productivity and profit. Aries and Gemini adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 5, 33, 25, 39 and 13.
