Born today, you are something of a busybody, always wanting to know what is happening behind the scenes. You are not merely nosy, however; you will spare no expense to learn all you can about the inner workings of anything that captures your attention. Despite this general interest in what makes things tick, you are likely to discover a single interest that takes precedence over all others when it reveals itself. You are likely to discover that you have untapped talents as well -- and as a result you can do much fine work, even if it means adopting a second career.
You are not perfect, and you know it -- but you are always interested in bettering yourself. This can happen on a daily basis, particularly if you surround yourself with those who inspire you to strive mightily to achieve new things as often as possible. You certainly never want to be second-best!
Also born on this date are: Jude Law, actor; Mary Tyler Moore, actress and producer; Ted Danson, actor; Danny McBride, actor; Andrew Johnson, U.S. president; Mekhi Phifer, actor; Patricia Clarkson, actress; Billy Mitchell, U.S. military leader and father of the Air Force; Gelsey Kirkland, ballerina; Jon Voight, actor.

SUNDAY, DECEMBER 30
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- A personal injury can be avoided today if you do what you are expected to do in a way that is accepted as proper. Don't be resistant.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You may not have hit upon the perfect solution to a current problem, but that will come. Right now, you simply need to take firm action.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- What you've been contemplating for some time can finally be put into action -- if you are willing to take a certain calculated risk.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- A little nostalgia does you a world of good today as you remember the good feelings you had in a situation similar to the one you're now in.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- It's a good day to hang out and get in touch with some feelings that you've been neglecting of late. A couple of friends offer guidance.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You're trying to raise the bar at this time, and yet you may get resistance from someone who doesn't want to work that hard. Insist!
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You may find that, although the road before you is clear, you're unable to progress as quickly as you had hoped. You are holding yourself back.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- It's a good day to lay the groundwork for something that, if it develops as planned, will be long admired. Be thorough!

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- An ally steps up and proves his or her worth -- and you may find yourself in a position of greater authority when night falls.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You want to be completely natural today, so you mustn't try to plan everything to the last detail. Let things develop organically when you can.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You can do everything with a bit more panache than usual today. Someone who is already in your corner develops stronger feelings for you.
