What can you do to make life easier for the people you love? Well you can stop buzzing here, there and everywhere for a start. Unlike you, not everyone needs constant activity to keep themselves amused, so slow down a bit and just chill out together.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 - Jan. 20):

The message of the stars today is that you need to keep things simple, both at home and at work. You may in fact have no choice in the matter as partners, colleagues and employers make it clear they have no time for complicated explanations.
