SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Instead of scattering your forces all over the place, you should give your most meaningful objectives top priority. Taking a lot of potshots won't improve your marksmanship.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- If through poor judgment you reopen an old wound, there is a strong possibility that you'll only make the same mistakes you made previously. Live and learn.
