HOROSCOPE
Being a Sagittarius born on December 2nd, your straightforward and positive nature is paired nicely with a thirst for adventure. While others stick to things they know, you are most energized by what is new and yet to be experienced. You take any opportunity to find a new environment or people to interact with, which makes you exciting and appealing to others. Above all, your friends, family, peers and coworkers may appreciate your positive outlook, as they would be hard-pressed to recall a time where you didn’t point out the bright side of things.
