2009 New Year's Resolutions by Sign

by Sally Philips

It's that time of year again, when we all promise to correct our bad habits and become perfect people. Riiiiight! As we all know, resolutions are made to be broken... but that doesn't mean we shouldn't still make them. Resolutions are more about adjusting our focus each year to gain greater awareness. Little by little, that awareness can help us clean up our mucky areas and get closer to living the lives we desire.

Here are some suggestions by Sun sign for resolutions that are likely to ring your awareness bell.

Aries (March 21 - April 19)
If one of your 2008 resolutions was to finish projects that are still sitting on your shelf ... it's time to box them up and make room for a brand new endeavor. Here's the resolution you will need to make it a success: I won't start a new project until I finish the one I'm working on.

Taurus (April 20 - May 20)
Your fixed energy makes you great at follow through, but it can also keep you stuck in bad habits. Resolve to tackle a few of your worst ones this year. If you are true to your resolutions for just three months, you will be well on your way to breaking even the most stubborn habit.

Gemini (May 21 - June 20)
Your whirlwind life can be a lot of fun -- and it certainly isn't boring -- but it might serve you well to slow down this coming year. Even though patience isn't your strong suit, try adding a dash of it here and there. It will help you make progress in areas where your bouncy energy has actually been holding you back.

Cancer (June 21 - July 22)
You love your routines and your security, but it's time to get out of your comfort zone and try something new. Resolve to reach out into unknown territory and see what you find this year. If it feels scary, remember that you're just coming up on an edge where you need to stretch.

Leo (July 23 - August 22)
Have you used your irresistible charms to capture emotional prisoners this past year? If you're a player -- and you know who you are -- resolve to be more devoted in 2009. Open up that big heart of yours and take your relationships to a deeper level.

Virgo (August 23 - September 22)
Nag, nag, nag ... the only time you stop is when you're nitpicking. Okay, that's a huge exaggeration ... but chances are you've gotten on someone's case a little too often this past year. Resolve to lighten up in 2009 and let others take care of dotting the i's and crossing the t's.

Libra (September 23 - October 22)
As hard as you try, you can't have it both ways. Promise yourself you will make firmer decisions this coming year. You can still weigh all of your alternatives ... but when it comes down to the line, make up your mind and stick to it. Your friends and colleagues will breathe a sigh of relief.

Scorpio (October 23 - November 21)
Keeping secrets adds to your mysterious allure, but there's a limit. If you're using your power to manipulate others, that's where it needs to end. Resolve to be more transparent with those close to you this year. Let them in on your deepest secrets and enjoy the fruits of greater intimacy.

Sagittarius (November 22 - December 21)
You're good at thinking big and you shouldn't change that in 2009 ... but you might want to put more time into developing strategies that will help you reach your lofty goals. Remember -- a goal without a plan is just a dream -- so make this the year you follow through.

Capricorn (December 22 - January 19)
Here's your 2009 mantra-resolution: It's not all about money. Keep pursuing the almighty dollar if you like, but also take time to smell the roses that line your path to success. Your friends and family need you. Resolve to be more generous with your time and attention.

Aquarius (January 20 - February 18)
Even though we all love your quirkiness, it wouldn't hurt to develop a bit more tolerance for the traditional. Since it's the flip side of where you usually put your energy, it may feel uncomfortable. But you shine when it comes to breaking the mold, so surprise everyone (again!) with a side of you they've never seen.

Pisces (February 19 - March 20)
This is the year to put your compassion to better use. Resolve to find a project where you can help others in need. Your understanding and supportive nature is a gift you need to give on a regular basis. Reach out and extend it beyond your friends and family.
