Horoscopes today - Russell Grant's star sign forecast for Saturday, December 23

Aries

Travel plans are on your mind. Arrangements which have been made over Christmas need to be confirmed. Make certain that everyone is quite clear about all the details. It never does any harm to double-check, especially with someone who is known to often hear or pick up information wrongly.

Taurus

A friend will be surprised by how much you seem to understand them. You can put yourself in their shoes and you know how they feel. Someone is keen to alter pre-arranged plans. Unless it is vitally important to stick with what has already been arranged, go ahead and pander to their whims and fancies.

Gemini

Friends will help out if you ask them. Someone will do you a favour which should mean you are able to make it to a party or gathering you had not expected to be able to attend. This is a good time to return to matters that have not yet been settled. New agreements will be reached.

Cancer

Trust your instincts. Make use of your imagination by pushing aside routine weekend chores and involving yourself in anything that demands skill and creativity. Working with your hands will bring you a lot of pleasure. Be willing to help a friend or relative who will admit to having no artistic talent at all.

Leo

A good turn you did for someone recently will be repaid and at the same time you will discover you have a friend, ally or admirer you hadn’t realised existed. Some new faces at a festive event could open doors for you. All that is needed is for you to be flexible and open-minded.

Virgo

You aren’t the only one who has taken on more than their fair share of the load. A workmate who has always been generous and giving looks like they have the weight of the world on their shoulders. Once you get together and start talking, you might do something positive to bring more fairness into your working environment.

Libra

It is important for you to have more belief in yourself and your worth. Trust that the decisions you are making are the right ones for you. At the same time, refuse to concentrate entirely on the serious side of life. Welcome any chance you get to extend and improve your social world this festive season.

Scorpio

With everyone busy with their own concerns, this would be an ideal time to clear the decks of any duties you’ve been putting off getting to grips with. It will be easier to deal with complicated tasks when there are less people around. You will happily repay a favour if you get a chance to do so today.

Sagittarius

Romance gets a boost as joint activities take you unto unfamiliar and exciting emotional territory. Plans to travel will mean you will soon get to broaden your horizons. Are you single and looking for love? Someone exciting will be met at a festive gathering.

Capricorn

If you’re wondering how to make some extra cash in the future, put your imagination to work. Consider unusual ways of increasing your income and bear in mind too that what you consider to be unwanted items just might be what someone else is keen to buy.

Aquarius

You will want to plan your day so that every second counts. Although you have more to deal with than usual, you know what you have let yourself in for and you should be able to cope more than adequately. Don’t forget the importance of delegation.

Pisces

This is as good a time as any to enjoy friendship and sociable activities. Make the most of any time available to meet up with your closest friends. Discuss ideas and plans you have for the future with them. Their feedback will help you decide which to work on and which to discard as being unrealistic.
