Capricorn (December 22nd to January 20th)

Although you’ve been making stronger and clearer steps on the path toward progress you’re scheduled to make this year, the last month or so has come with some misgivings about those who have been on the path with you. This week may augur both a time where you have more understanding about what’s been going on with some folks (though no promise of more compassion or agreement) and more clarity about the path you’re on. My advice is not to spend a lot of time on trying to redeem the past. “Redeeming the past” is what people try to do when it’s become clear that a current relationship ain’t working, but because you’ve spent so much energy, time or money on it, you want it to mean something, be worth something. Some say this is what others call closure. Either way, don’t force it now.
