Take some richly deserved time for leisure. Get in touch with spirituality or find new ways to engage your intellect and creativity. Spend wisely, avoiding gambling and risky ventures. Make time for your partner and for carefree moments with kids. Diplomacy will get you a long way right now. Closed door meetings are a possibility today. If you find yourself in trouble, rely on help offered by loved ones. This period of introspection and even stoic silence will chart the course of the future. A visit to the doctor may be needed to address health issues. Spend some time on yourself today.

With the Sun blazing through Sagittarius and your sixth house of wellbeing until December 21, you'll be motivated to walk (or jog or cycle) a healthy path. Yet an inevitable holiday food orgy awaits you at every turn. What's a Cancer to do? Make your motto "extreme moderation." Rather than focusing on all the things you're depriving yourself of, load up on lean protein and fresh veggies before parties and gatherings—and squeeze in mini-workouts every chance you get. Then, when the cookie trays start arriving, you can partake joyfully.
