My son and my nephew were nearly crushed last week when the cable on a crane on a ship they were loading in Georgetown, broke. A ton of cable and tackle fell on the deck but thankfully they were able to get clear. This sort of work is inherently dangerous but this ifs the lot of the hardworking men supporting thier families here in SC.

Daily Horoscope for December 20

Aries

There's a lot of tension in the air, with certain people poised to spit the dummy, as Mars turns retrograde in your fifth house of romance, children and speculation. Confrontations are likely. If these are nothing to do with you and you just happen to be directly in the firing line, your best bet is to make yourself scarce. But if you are responsible for their outraged feelings then you need to face the music, otherwise things will only get worse.
