Horoscopes

Not everyone loves Winter, but I have a feeling you will like it a lot more once you find something to do which fits your personality to a T! This was a bit tough to figure out, but I did base my article on something I found online. This is more of a dating thing whereas mine can be used by yourself, but it is extremely good as far as the activities and personalities are concerned. All credit for what I have written should go to them. -

12 Holiday & Winter Date Ideas, Based on Your Zodiac Sign (LINK)

Aries loves physical activity, and so ice skating should provide you with both a thrill and good exercise at the same time. Snowboarding and snow skiing might also be of interest, just be careful not to get hurt!

I remember when I was a kid, there was a TV station which featured the theme "dinner and a movie" on Fridays. That is the perfect proposal for you Taureuns out there! Get a recipe book and learn to make some delightful new dish or even cookies, if you like (all seasons are great for cookie baking, but Winter seems especially ideal). Follow it up with a film you haven't seen yet; there is so much good stuff out there to watch this time of year.

Gemini being so intelligent, creative and outgoing, should enjoy a totally different approach to the food thing by attending a wine, eggnog (that sounds so tempting!) or general food tasting. I love this kind of thing, myself. There is a group of restaurants nearby where you go through and sample something they have to offer at each stop, it's delicious fun and all the locations are close so you just walk to each one and enjoy.

The article recommends a hand drawn bath for Cancer. Which sounds great if you are going to be using a lot of fancy stuff like Bed and Bath has. Beautiful fragrances are nice. Follow this up with a restaurant meal with friends and you've had the perfect Winter treat!

Leo is another active Fire sign which craves physical activity. A frosty hike will keep the need for physical activity happy, but only if the sky is clear. You don't want to get caught in the midst of an avalanche!

This I know from my friend - Virgos are the biggest bookworms of all. If this is your sign, spend your day in a bookstore drinking a nice, hot beverage like hot chocolate (yum) and catching up. on your reading. The library works, too, except for the beverage part!

I realise it's a bit late for this, but Librans are the kind who would love decorating the Christmas tree more than most anyone. Keep it in mind for next year, followed by a tasty restaurant meal, of course! This year you can still work on your photography skills by taking pictures or some wild pine trees (safely, of course!)

If you're a Scorpio, now is the time to take in a show! Lots of wonderful films this time of year, and there are also productions like the Nutcracker ballet that will get you in the mood. This year, there is also a Nutcracker film! (My friends enjoyed it; I have not yet seen it.)

Sagittareans love to travel more than most signs, so an outdoor picnic sounds like it would be right up your alley. Just be sure to keep warm and safe!

Capricorns are music lovers extraordinaire, so it's your job to seek out the perfect holiday concert for your tastes. Sounds like a fun challenge to me!

If your sign is Aquarius, how does a marathon of holiday (or otherwise) movies sound to you? Hot cocoa and buttered popcorn (like the kind you get at the theater) sound like the perfect companions to this!

Here's a truly novel idea, a scavenger hunt for all you Pisceans. Have some of your friends and family hide a few ornaments and things for you to find, then you can take pictures of the things you decorate them with. There are a lot more things than just trees!

I hope these two articles together spur your creativity. You can probably come up with a lot of other ideas that you can do all year long - enjoy and see you next issue!
