On the scene horoscopes Happy Birthday, Capricorn! Dec. 22–Jan. 20 Your month: This year, a major sweep through the closet of your unconscious mind demands you take a hard look at what’s been hiding in there. Focus on getting rid of your irrational fears, regrets about things you’ve left undone and attachments that don’t serve you anymore. Read Subliminal: How Your Unconscious Mind Rules Your Behavior by Leonard Mlodinow, the winner of the 2013 PEN/E. O. Wilson Literary Science Writing Award. This will be an effective tool to prepare you for the cerebral housekeeping you’ll be doing in 2015. ➺ Freedom. What does it mean to be free Does avoiding responsibility equal freedom We’ll re-evaluate our sense of freedom and personal boundaries, commitment or lack thereof. We’ll be presented with new challenges. We’ll get to build (or test) a higher wisdom in ourselves, and there will be little or no room for lies, embellishments or hype because truth will win out. 2015 and 2016 make for a reality check that will most likely wipe away delusions and pathological idealism. We need to pursue truth first, seek out the real and find beauty in it. Aquarius (Jan. 21–Feb. 19): The first half of 2015 is all about relationships. Finally. It’s going to be a great time to make contacts, develop new acquaintances and start cooperating personally and professionally. It’ll be easier because people are paying you more attention, your talents are noticed and recognized, and so your social activities increase exponentially. But even the most adept socializers can use a little help. We recommend the book Networking is a Contact Sport: How Staying Connected and Serving Others Will Help You Grow Your Business, Expand Your Influence—or Even Land Your Next Job by Joe Sweeney and Mike Yorke. Pisces (Feb. 20–March 20): For the last three years, you’ve taken the philosophical but uncharacteristically practical approach to life and work that most of us envy. You’re dissatisfied with your job situation but hesitate to disrupt your hardwon security. You could teach; teaching does help you keep the big picture in sight. But if you could quietly dictate policy while saving abused animals, feeding the hungry or caring for the elderly, you just might jump at the chance. Reading the book Take This Job and Love It: How to Change Your Work Without Changing Your Job by Dennis T. Jaffe and Cynthia Scott might help you solve that dilemma. Aries (March 21–April 20): True, you’ve had a little 28 | Austin <strong>Woman</strong> | JANUARY 2015 chaos and it’s made you a little crazy, but have you thought about how much you’ve grown creatively since 2011 Safety and a calm life don’t necessarily encourage creative energy, so you may have actually benefited creatively from the chaos. We think the book Chaos, Creativity, and Cosmic Consciousness by Rupert Sheldrake, Ralph Abraham and Terence McKenna could be your operating manual for the next six months. The chapters on creativity, the imagination and chaos are some of the most useful, and it’s one of Amazon’s Best Books of 2014. Taurus (aPril 21–May 21): During the next six months, you’ll experience endings of all sorts, so don’t be afraid of letting go when something’s run its course. You’ll learn so much by probing deeper into the darker areas of life. You may have some tricky moments with changes, employee turnover or even death, but try to see these experiences as lessons to help you understand the underlying forces at work in the universe. Necessary Endings: The Employees, Businesses, and Relationships That All of Us Have to Give Up in Order to Move Forward by Henry Cloud is perfect for you right now. Gemini (May 22–June 20): You guys have a lot going on: Your fans, like your clubs and groups, grow by the minute, and your goals and dreams take more twisty turns than a road through the Alps. Now that you have all these people (and projects) clamoring for your attention, you should read The Five Keys to Mindful Communication: Using Deep Listening and Mindful Speech to Strengthen Relationships, Heal Conflicts, and Accomplish Your Goals by Susan Gillis Chapman. A great thinker and talker, and always willing to expand your mind, you’ll put the advice in this book to immediate use and be an inspiration to your fans. Cancer (June 21–July 22): In 1995, Anthony J. Robbins, Del Mar motivational guru and king of late-night infomercials, was summoned to Camp David for a consultation with President Clinton. The theory was that Clinton was respectful of Robbins’ money savvy and wanted to pick his brain. The next six months are all about money for you, so we think you could use the book MoneY—Master the Game: 7 Simple Steps to Financial Freedom by Tony Robbins. As good as your money chops are naturally, you’ll appreciate Robbins’ money expertise too. Leo (July 23–Aug. 23): You want adventure, public acclaim, freedom to explore unknown realms and climb the highest peaks (as long as they’re not too high and you have Sherpas). You don’t want to hide your light anymore, and you need recognition for your professional achievements. During the next six months, the timing is perfect to accomplish all that and more, so you’ll benefit from this amazingly ingenious book: Training to Imagine: Practical Improvisational Theatre Techniques for Trainers and Managers to Enhance Creativity, Teamwork, Leadership, and Learning by Kat Koppett. You’ll be entertained and inspired to utilize theater techniques in the day-to-day theater of your work world. Virgo (Aug. 24–Sept. 22): During the next six months, you feel a strong tug in the direction of real estate. You want to buy or sell or remodel or refinance or any combination therein. There’s every indication you’ll benefit big, so we recommend you pursue those tugs and read the book Mortgage Ripoffs and Money Savers: An Industry Insider Explains How to Save Thousands on Your Mortgage or Re-Finance by Carolyn Warren. Even if you’re not thinking of refinancing, you Virgos love to collect tidbits of information, so you’ll love the money-leveraging tricks in this book. Libra (Sept. 23–Oct. 22): Your natural social-butterfly personality is in full flight this month. With a heavy emphasis on building and maintaining partnerships and friendships, you benefit abundantly from this magical star alignment. You don’t even need to be in the same room with anyone for them to want to follow you. Outsmarting Social Media: Profiting in the Age of Friendship Marketing by Evan Bailyn is the book for you. It takes the friend trend to a whole new level, and shows you how to move it from nuisance to essential. Now is the perfect time to kick your social game up a notch. Scorpio (Oct. 23–nOv. 21): For the next six months, do what you were born to do: lead. Embrace the direction the wind blows, set your sails and leave the safety and the comfort zone of your dock for the open sea, your fleet following closely behind. 2015 brings significant change, thank goodness. Your natural inclination toward selfdoubt and insecurity should give way to the promise of public and professional recognition. Achieving this may require personal sacrifice. Recipes for Life Hacks: How to Build Leadership Qualities and Change Your Life by Max Smith can show you a few different leadership techniques, and the e-book is free with Amazon Prime. Sagittarius (nOv. 22–Dec. 21): Here’s your book: Grace’s Guide: The Art of Pretending to Be a Grown-up by Grace Helbig. In the next six months, your main aim should be to extend your point of view and open your mind to becoming a grown-up, or at least acting like one. Maybe this means you go beyond what you’ve known to understand cultures and philosophies outside your own life experiences. Maybe it means you need to fill your soul with optimism and faith in a stable future. Or maybe you finally get to see the big picture and stop tripping over the small stuff.
