In the distant 90s, twelve young girls meet in the astrological circle “Zodiac”. They find themselves in the world of the mystery of the heavenly bodies, the mystical mysteries of the elements that rule the world. Inaccessible stars smile, beckon, promise, looking from an incomprehensible height at those for whom the road to independent life is just opening. The path of heroines is thorny and whimsical. The heavenly forces either favorably lift you to light and bliss, then cast you down into the abyss of misfortune, grief and deception. An explosive mixture of Scorpio’s virtues and vices; tenderness, compassion and purity of Virgo’s thoughts; the leisurely charm and worldly wisdom of Taurus; Gemini's inconstancy; stubbornness and secrecy of Capricorn... Twelve characters, twelve roads, twelve professions: nurse, secretary, governess, teacher, fortune teller, writer... The heroines of the novels are infinitely different, but they have one thing in common - the desire for female happiness. Will the stars help girlish dreams come true? Will each of them meet the one and only destined for them? Following the promise made 10 years ago, the grown-up girls meet again. How did their destinies turn out? What surprises, twists and turns have the stars prepared for them? Each of the stories is about this, told in a wonderful snow-covered villa on Christmas night.
