This is another interesting and potentially difficult month, Cancer, with quite a lot depending on the attitude with which you approach events, and their tidings. The recent Scorpio New Moon, from the final two weeks of November, featured your creativity and the several different ways that area is evolving for you, lasting into the first three weeks of the current month. There is as well in this ongoing lunation cycle, especially in the timing of the Gemini Full Moon of December 4th, the likelihood of intuitional flashes of novel awareness that you can appreciate all the more when you can stay open to this potential knowing from deep within. Chiron, the Wounded Healer, also prominent in this Full Moon configuration, and located in your tenth or vocational sector, could manifest as inner wounding suddenly coming up, bringing up painful experiences, likely based on early childhood trauma. As this arises, one knee-jerk tendency is to attempt to ignore or avoid these realizations, although you do so at your peril. The best response might be to lovingly accept these interior reminders of deficiency and to reach out to the lost and lonely part of you that they represent, perhaps long buried away, to offer better integration and a road to healing. The next major lunation of the month is the December 19th late Sagittarius New Moon, taking place right on the very edge of your relationship sector and hence, due to Neptune’s strong presence in this month’s astrology, affecting partnership in your life with perhaps a trace of optimistic attitude bordering on over-idealism, confusion, or even self-deception. It again might help to take what occurs to you with “a grain of salt,” as provisional, and, rather than resorting to condemnation, make everything the subject of curiosity.


The following was written by our in-house astrologer, Leslie Benson.

Previous New Moon – from November 19th
December opens with the lingering resonance of the preceding Scorpio New Moon of November 19th, which activated your fifth sector of creativity, pleasure, romance, and self-expression. This lunation arrived in a rare configuration with the Sun and Moon conjunct Mercury Cazimi, illuminating something that may have been buried within your creative instinct or psychological landscape. This Sun, Moon, Mercury combo is very rare, and also sponsored a potent grand kite formation with Saturn and Neptune in Pisces, Jupiter in your own sign, and Uranus in Taurus, which weaves a remarkable aspect pattern of startling revelation, insight, and deeper feeling, still potent during the first three weeks of December. Something about your personal joy, your inner child, or your creativity may have come sharply into focus, perhaps surprising you with its intensity. As December begins, you may notice the subtle ways this awareness continues to ripple outward, inviting a more authentic relationship with what lights you up at a soul level.

Mercury Direct and Recovering, since November 29th
After Mercury stationed direct on November 29th, in early December it is beginning its slow shift from inward reflection toward clearer expression. As this unfolds over December’s first two weeks, Mercury retraces its retrograde path through your fifth sector of joy, romance, and creativity before re-entering your sixth or service sector on December 11th, and finally clears its shadow on December 16th. This recovery phase may feel like emotional sorting out, as you integrate insights from November into the flow of daily life. Conversations may ease, though some themes still call for patience or refinement.

Gemini Full Moon – December 4th
The Full Moon in Gemini on December 4th lights up your twelfth sector of dreams, intuition, and the unconscious. This lunation may highlight something previously unseen or unspoken, offering an emotional release or a sudden understanding that helps you connect inner and outer realities. Full Moons are always significant for Cancerians, ruled by the Moon, and this one may feel particularly internal, and inwardly reflective, or tender. You might become more aware of what you have been carrying lately, quietly in the background, and how rest, retreat, or spiritual practices can help you metabolize the insights emerging from the wake of the New Moon and of Mercury’s retrograde period.

Jupiter Trine Saturn – Ongoing Through Mid-December
Jupiter, traveling in its exalted territory of your sign of Cancer, has been trine to Saturn in Pisces since mid-October and continues into mid-December, harmonizing the energy between your first sector of identity and your ninth sector of perspective and growth. This supportive alignment may help you integrate personal development with broader meaning, philosophy, or long-range vision. You may feel more anchored in who you are becoming, even if the path is still forming beneath your feet. With Jupiter traveling through your sign, your emotional intelligence and intuitive knowing are amplified, and Saturn offers structure to help you shape new possibilities with steadiness and intention.

Sun, Mars, and Venus Square Saturn–Neptune Throughout the Month
Throughout December, the Sun, Mars, and Venus in late Sagittarius form square aspects to Saturn and Neptune in Pisces, preceding each of these planet’s ingress into your opposite sign of Capricorn. Because this activates tension between your sixth, seventh, and ninth sectors; that is to say, your sectors of day-to-day habitual behaviors, key partnerships, and high mind studies and philosophy. In these moments you may notice an invitation to weave your beliefs and broader ideals into the fabric of daily life. This entire monthly cycle asks you to discern which visions carry real substance and which remain more aspirational than practical. You may feel called to ground your intuition in lived experience while still making room for wonder and imaginative possibility.

Neptune Stations Direct – December 10th
Neptune’s station direct on December 10th deepens the focus on your ninth sector of higher mind and educational or travel initiatives, illuminating a subtle but meaningful shift in how you make sense of the world and your place within it. This station may bring a gentle awakening or reveal something long gestating in your imagination or spiritual life. You might notice increased sensitivity to symbolism, dreams, or synchronicities, as well as a growing desire for inspiration or connection with what feels sacred.

Mars Enters Capricorn – December 14th
Mars enters Capricorn on December 14th, energizing your seventh sector of partnership, collaboration, and important one-to-one connections. This may bring momentum into relational dynamics, perhaps prompting honest conversations, clarified boundaries, or more intentional engagement. You may feel motivated to move toward partnership goals or to renegotiate agreements so that they serve your evolving needs. Mars in Capricorn is steady, focused, and disciplined, encouraging you to take relational commitments seriously.

Sagittarius New Moon – December 19th
The Sagittarius New Moon of December 19th offers a fresh beginning in your sixth sector of daily life, wellness, and routines. This lunation may inspire a desire to reorganize your schedule, refine habits, or articulate new intentions for how you care for your body and mind. With Mercury still recovering in this part of your chart, this New Moon may feel like a synthesis of recent insights, helping you identify the practices that sustain your sense of grounding and emotional clarity.

Sun Enters Capricorn – December 21st
The Sun’s entrance into Capricorn on December 21st in the Capricorn Solstice highlights your seventh or relationship sector once again, marking a period of increased attention on partners, interpersonal dynamics, and mutual support. This seasonal turning point may illuminate the relational threads that matter most to you, offering a renewed sense of presence within your connections.

Venus Enters Capricorn – December 24th
Venus enters Capricorn on December 24th, softening and harmonizing the themes activated by Mars and the Sun. This brings warmth, receptivity, and potential ease into relationship dynamics, helping you build bridges where needed, deepen the foundations of trust and care, and center in your self-worth, as you prepare to go forth into the coming new year!

This is another month, Libra, with a great deal of astrological archetypal energy swirling about, indicating a hopeful optimism as a balance point to necessary limitation and constraint. A powerful intuitional understanding and clarity of thought are important components, when you can find the grace and the confidence to let them in. December is thus not all challenge, although that factor is present. You are being prompted by the universe to carefully curate your own internal principles and values, allowing these to predominate, as you can come to this, excluding early conditioning or consensus thought as factors in your decision process. Relationship matters also claim your attention and have something important to contribute, although just what could be unclear. Sorting out the spiritual power of these realizations from the necessity of commitment that does fully understand its source might be one major task of this potentially mystical and also mysterious timing. Novel ideas keep coming, some more worthy than others, and all of them influential. This is a strong month for progress, especially in its final ten days. As you continue to reach for a balance point, the Gemini Full Moon of December’s first week, culminating on the 4th, might be a good moment to take stock. In terms of relationship there could be issues with early childhood wounding that come up for better integration and healing because, in some sense, the time is right for further progress there. If you can take this as a sacrament, and an opportunity – not to shun but rather to accept and emotionally profit from – this month could wind up as a blessing for your subsequent partnership development.


The following was written by our in-house astrologer, Leslie Benson.

Previous New Moon – from November 19th
December opens in the lingering resonance of the Scorpio New Moon from mid-November, the 19th, which activated your second sector of self-worth, resources, and the ways to invest your time and energy. This lunation arrived in conjunction with Mercury’s Cazimi and formed a grand kite with Saturn and Neptune in Pisces, Jupiter in Cancer, and Uranus in Taurus. Pluto is again activated in your fourth sector of home and family, so that this area is still subject to revaluation and transformation, perhaps involving your family of origin. Something about your values, and as well your communicative outreach to others, may have sharpened into focus, perhaps revealing a truth you had sensed for some time but had not yet fully named. This New Moon may have touched a tender place that relates to how you care for yourself, what you prioritize, and how you calibrate the exchange between giving and receiving. You may notice early in the month that this insight continues to unfold in layers, guiding you toward a clearer sense of what strengthens your sense of vitality, as well as what tends to deplete it.

Mercury Direct and Recovering, since November 29th
Mercury’s station direct on November 29th begins a gradual shift from inward reflection toward clearer movement. As Mercury retraces its Scorpio terrain and re-enters Sagittarius on December 11th, conversations, ideas, and everyday exchanges open back up, though still with a reflective undertone. By December 16th, when Mercury finally clears its shadow, you may notice your thinking and communication regaining fuller momentum, helping you integrate recent insights with more ease and coherence.

Gemini Full Moon – December 4th
The Gemini Full Moon on December 4th lights up the Sagittarius–Gemini axis, activating your third sector of communication and ninth sector of higher learning and drawing attention to the stories you tell about your life and the meaning you make from them. Your learning curve gets a boost here and also what could be impacted is your sense of inner wounding in connection with your relationships, as Chiron in your opposite sign of Aries is also highlighted. This lunation forms an exact square to the nodal axis, creating a crossroads feeling that highlights the tension between familiar ways of thinking and the larger truths you’re reaching toward. Something you’ve been studying, questioning, or slowly piecing together may reach a moment of illumination. You may notice competing narratives, or feel pulled between intuition and logic, curiosity and certainty. This Full Moon asks you to hold multiple perspectives at once, allowing contradictions to refine your understanding rather than fracture it. It marks a subtle turning point in your worldview, encouraging you to stay open as new connections, meanings, and possibilities take shape.

Jupiter Trine Saturn – Ongoing Through Mid-December
A stabilizing support runs beneath the month through the long-running trine between Jupiter in Cancer and Saturn in Pisces. This harmonious aspect activates your tenth sector of career and sixth sector of wellness and service, encouraging steady growth in the realm of vocation, service, and the rhythms that support your daily life. You may notice that a professional effort begun earlier in the year is now gaining traction, or that a persistent practice is finally bearing fruit. This influence offers grounding and balance, helping you build confidence in your long-term direction, and deeper cultivations.

Sun, Mars, and Venus Square Saturn–Neptune Throughout the Month
As Mars, the Sun, and Venus move through late Sagittarius, each forms square aspects to Saturn and Neptune in Pisces, activating your third sector of thought and language and sixth sector of mundane habitual life process. This takes place just before these inner planets ingress into Capricorn, and may create a subtle friction between what you hope to express and what your daily reality can hold, stirring questions about pace, capacity, and clarity. You may notice fluctuations in motivation or attention, or moments when inspiration feels vivid but hard to ground. These squares gently expose where idealism, people-pleasing, or diffuse expectations have clouded the picture, while also inviting you to approach your routines and communications with more honesty and nuance.

Neptune Stations Direct – December 10th
As Neptune stations direct on December 10th, its influence intensifies in your sixth sector of health and wellbeing, heightening sensitivity around health, routines, and daily rhythms. This can bring intuitive insight into what your body or schedule truly needs, but it may also blur boundaries or create brief confusion as the atmosphere feels more porous. This period invites you to stay grounded while listening for subtle cues, allowing clarity to re-emerge as the fog gradually lifts.

Mars Square Neptune – December 12th to the 15th
This is the first inner planet to enter Capricorn and as it does, square (in particular) Neptune in the last or anaretic degree of Pisces, perched right on the edge of your opposite sign of Aries or your relationship sector. With your relationship sector ruler, Mars, in square alignment, this might be a time when Neptune’s numinous qualities and confusing presence might enter into your partnership dynamics.

Mars Enters Capricorn – December 14th
Mars enters Capricorn on December 14th, energizing your fourth sector of home, foundations, and inner life. Mars is exalted here, bringing clarity and determination that may inspire you to reorganize your space, address lingering family matters, or fortify your emotional base. This transit favors steady, tangible action and reminds you that tending your roots is a vital part of caring for yourself.

Sagittarius New Moon – December 19th
The Sagittarius New Moon of December 19th opens a fresh chapter in your third sector of communication, ideas, and local environment. With your ruling planet, Venus, nearby and the Saturn–Neptune square still active, this New Moon asks for sincerity, presence, and clarity in your interactions. You may feel the spark of new curiosity or a desire to reconnect with your voice after Mercury’s earlier retrograde cycle, and a clarifying of how your are owning and communicating your values. This is an important reset that invites mindful exchange and renewed vigor for learning.

Sun Enters Capricorn – December 21st
The Sun’s entrance into Capricorn on December 21st is the Capricorn Solstice, and spotlights your fourth sector of home once more, drawing you toward what steadies and supports you. This turning point invites a return to your inner anchors and may bring a quiet sense of commitment to the structures that hold your emotional life.

Venus Enters Capricorn – December 24th
Venus enters Capricorn on December 24th, further emphasizing themes of home, stability, and belonging. As your ruling planet, Venus brings warmth and intentionality to your foundations, supporting grounded connection and the creation of spaces that feel sincere, steady, and true, as you wind down this year and prepare for the next.

This is another interesting month for you, Capricorn, and one that takes you in a contrary direction to the realms of striving and outer world success that are your more usual hunting grounds. The recent late Scorpio New Moon from mid-November took place right on the edge of your twelfth sector of dream imagination, unconscious process, and inner work, and it may serve to remind you that there are times when the only way ahead is down and through. A grand trine in this New Moon between Sun, Moon, Mercury in conjunction leading to Jupiter, your twelfth sector’s ruler, and Saturn – which rules your solar chart – makes for another powerful astrological indication of this emphasis over the course of this December month of internal exploration. This area of inner work, while little recognized, is very important for everything that we say and do. Transformational Pluto remains active in Aquarius, the part of your chart that relates to values and resources, including your financial ones, so that something is also irrevocably changing in that regard as well, perhaps even your relationship to the entire material world. When the Gemini Full Moon arrives on December 4th, there is also a renewed emphasis on Chiron, the Wounded Healer, conjunct Eris, Feminine Warrior for Soul Intention, in your sector of home, family and your psychological roots, which underscores this month’s internal focus. Ancient wounds, the residue of early childhood trauma long buried away, are likely to surface at this time, and if they do, provide an opportunity for recognition, leading to an eventual healing of these issues. You have perhaps in the past avoided dealing with these dark places tucked away within the depths of your psyche. If so, this might therefore be an excellent time to welcome them closer to the comfort of your more conscious awareness and acceptance.


The following was written by our in-house astrologer, Leslie Benson.

Previous New Moon – from November 19th
December opens on the lingering resonance of the Scorpio New Moon from November 19th, which activated your eleventh and twelfth sectors of vision, community, alliances, long-range goals, and unconscious process. This lunation arrived in a rare conjunction with the Mercury in Cazimi moment that is considered to be a bit of a respite from the difficulties and untoward events of the remainder of the Mercury Retrograde period. This previous late Scorpio New Moon also linked into a grand kite formation with Jupiter in Cancer, Saturn–Neptune in Pisces, and Uranus in Taurus. For you, this configuration could have clarified the emotional or energetic undercurrents shaping your collaborative spaces, making more visible that which is aligned with your deeper purpose, as differing from what tends to distract or deplete you. Something about the way you participate in community or how you hold your commitments may have come sharply into focus, revealing where boundaries, expectations, or aspirations needed refinement. As December unfolds, you are also likely more involved with inner process, with dreams that inform you of your deeper awareness and of compulsions toward inner work, and with delving beneath the surface layers of your psyche. You may continue noticing how these revelations ripple outward, guiding you into more intentional choices about the circles you invest yourself in and the future you feel drawn to cultivate.

Mercury Direct and Recovering, since November 29th
Mercury stationed direct on November 29th, and although this has begun the gradual shift away from deep introspective reworking, the early days of December still emphasize integration. Mercury completes its recovery through the retrograde shadow on December 16th, which means conversations, planning, and creative problem-solving may continue to unfold in layers rather than leaps. Moving from your eleventh sector of long-term aspirations to your twelfth sector of dream and mystery, Mercury’s process reminds you to listen carefully to subtler signals beneath the surface.

Gemini Full Moon – December 4th
The Gemini Full Moon on December 4th illuminates your sixth sector of work, wellness, and the systems that support daily life. Full Moons tend to highlight turning points, and this one is especially potent because it forms a same-degree grand cross with the lunar nodes in Virgo and Pisces. This cross activates a karmically charged atmosphere prompting you to consider rest, service, and surrender. With the mutable cross, this time may be asking you to adopt an attitude of flexibility to flow to the changing tides. You may notice themes around overextension, workload patterns, or habits that require recalibration. With Chiron, the Wounded Healer additionally activated, in your fourth sector of home and family, there could be repercussions that arise in terms of inner wounding in this area. You might in this way come to acknowledge what is no longer sustainable. The insights arising here can help you restructure your commitments or reshape the rhythms that center your wellbeing.

Jupiter Trine Saturn – Ongoing Through Mid-December
Throughout the first half of the month, Jupiter in Cancer continues to form a steady trine to Saturn, your ruling planet, in Pisces. This supportive link between your seventh sector of partnership, and third sector of communication creates a harmonious backdrop that strengthens interpersonal connection, agreements, and relational clarity. Jupiter expands possibilities while Saturn provides the structure to make them real, encouraging thoughtful conversations that build trust or foster cooperation. You may find that plans can take root with more ease, or that collaborative endeavors develop with greater coherence and flow. This transit brings a grounded optimism, blending emotional sincerity with tangible follow-through, offering a sense of momentum where it matters most.

Sun, Mars, and Venus Square Saturn–Neptune Throughout the Month
The Sun, Mars, and Venus move through late Sagittarius for much of December, forming square aspects to Saturn and Neptune in Pisces. This takes place just before these inner planets ingress into Capricorn, and over this week or a few days these activations will highlight your twelfth sector of subconscious process and your third sector of rational thought, drawing attention to the interplay between your inner world and your everyday environment and engagements. You may notice subtle tensions between what you feel privately and what you communicate outwardly, or between your instinct to withdraw and your need to share your truth. Rather than pushing for definitive solutions, you may find value in allowing for ambiguity, which can inform a slower, steadier approach. This month-long series of squares invites you to infuse your intuition and deep inner knowing with the mental interfaces and attitudes through which you navigate everyday life.

Neptune Stations Direct – December 10th
On December 10th, Neptune stations direct in your third sector of learning and, for the surrounding week, heightens the Neptunian blend of intuition, imagination, and sensitivity. This can bring a gentle lift in creativity or symbolic insight, yet it may also blur boundaries or complicate clear communication. Offering yourself and others the gift of compassion can be helpful, as everyone navigates the foggy weather together.

Mars Enters Capricorn – December 14th
Mars enters your sign, Capricorn, on December 14th, activating your first sector of identity, vitality, and personal agency. Mars is exalted here, and its arrival often brings renewed determination, grounding, and stamina. You may feel a clearer sense of direction or a desire to move ahead with fervor and focused intention. This transit supports disciplined effort and aligned ambition, giving form to ideas that have been gestating.

Sagittarius New Moon – December 19th
The Sagittarius New Moon of December 19th initiates a quieter inner cycle in your twelfth sector of mystery, inviting reflection, release, and spiritual integration. With Venus nearby and the Saturn–Neptune square still active, this lunation encourages a softening of expectations and a turning toward inner truth. You may feel called to step back, rest, or allow space for intuition to guide what comes next. This New Moon is located right on the edge of your sign, so that issues of identity and of where you are heading could also come up in this timing. It also can be seen as marking a preparatory phase, helping you shed what no longer aligns so that you can meet the Capricorn season from a place of clarity and renewed strength.

Sun Enters Capricorn – December 21st
The Sun enters your sign on December 21st, ushering in your personal solar season and coinciding with the Capricorn Solstice. This turning point offers a natural moment of renewal, inviting you to reflect on the year behind you and to orient toward what you hope to build in the year ahead. You may notice a clearer sense of self emerging as your attention returns to your priorities, responsibilities, and long-term goals. This transit affirms your authority and re-centers you within your own path.

Venus Enters Capricorn – December 24th
Venus enters Capricorn on December 24th, joining Mars and the Sun in your first sector and emphasizing themes of self-respect, authenticity, and relational grounding. You may feel drawn to refine your personal boundaries or deepen connections that honor mutual integrity. Venus here supports purposeful commitments and a desire for stability. This transit can also bring warmth and ease into your self-presentation, helping you integrate the month’s insights with grace and composure, as 2025 closes and you look forward to 2026.

This is another interesting, transformative, and consequential month, Aquarius, with plenty of internal struggle and yet also a dash of optimism and clarity. This last has emanated from the recent late Scorpio New Moon from mid-November which initiated the thirty-day lunation cycle still governing the first three weeks of December. This extremely dynamic New Moon featured the outer planet combinations that have been so very active in recent months, from the summer onward, including Pluto in your sign reflecting an identity metamorphosis that is ongoing. Uranus, your ruler, having retrograded back to the last, or anaretic degree of Taurus, implies home and family re-activation, while still influencing your sector of creativity and self-expression. Because this recent New Moon directly opposed Uranus in close trine with Pluto, your arc of personal development is currently highlighted. The New Moon was also conjunct a Mercury Cazimi, or a moment of clarity amidst the then-current Mercury Retrograde, there could also be an optimistic note that is struck now, lasting into the present month. Mercury is in its post-retrograde shadow until mid-December. With Chiron in Aries also highlighted, it is very possible that some form of inner wounding might come up for better self-understanding. Your opportunity during the December month may well be to honor and accept whatever is revealed at deeper levels of your psyche, whether good or not so much, thus allowing you to become more whole. The late Sagittarius New Moon of December 19th speaks to this issue as well, since Chiron is again featured there. Your month thus provides indications of progress in the midst of angst and increased self-awareness. The ultimate outcome is up to you and how successful you can be at integrating the various threads stemming from within and outside of yourself. This while keeping your own unique principles and values front, center, and foremost.


The following was written by our in-house astrologer, Leslie Benson.

Previous New Moon – November 19th
December opens in the wake of the Scorpio New Moon that occurred on November 19th, governing the thirty days of its unfolding lunation cycle, activating your tenth sector of vocation, reputation, and worldly contribution along with your social sector it was perched on the edge of. This lunation arrived with the Sun and Moon in a rare conjunction with Mercury Cazimi, opposite your modern ruling planet, Uranus, therefore emphasizing your own evolving identity. The New Moon also chimed with Jupiter in Cancer, plus Saturn conjunct Neptune, together forming a potent grand kite configuration. For you, this could have revealed an emergent layer of clarity in your public life, a shift in how you express your authority, or a deeper recognition of the life purpose drawing you forward. Pluto, now firmly rooted in your own sign, intensifies these themes, making you more aware of what feels aligned with your evolving future self and what has on the other hand become outdated. As December unfolds, the insight from this New Moon continues to ripple through your choices, urging a more authentic expression of your long-term aspirations and the structural changes required to sustain them.

Mercury Direct and Recovering, Since November 29th
Mercury stationed direct on November 29th, gently reorienting communication and mental processing after weeks of retrograde reflection. As early December unfolds, Mercury is still retracing its Scorpio terrain before re-entering Sagittarius on December 11th. This period may feel like a subtle realignment within your tenth sector (vocation) and eleventh sector (goals and networks), encouraging patience as insights about aspirations, collaborations, and public visibility settle into place. You may sense a shift in the clarity of group communication or in how you frame your broader vision, especially once Mercury escapes its retrograde shadow on December 16th.

Gemini Full Moon – December 4th
The Gemini Full Moon on December 4th illuminates your fifth sector of creativity, romance, self-expression, and joy. This lunation forms a rare same-degree grand cross with the lunar nodes in Pisces–Virgo, highlighting a moment of karmic sensitivity, heightened awareness, and turning-point clarity. What emerges may feel both playful and profound, revealing where creative inspiration is ripening and where tangible resources might need to be allocated. Relationships with lovers or collaborators may be part of the story, not as dramatic ruptures but as invitations into more truthful resonance. This Full Moon encourages you to honor what is awakening in the expressive, heart-driven parts of your life, especially where old patterns are ready to release.

Jupiter Trine Saturn – Ongoing Through Mid-December
Through mid-December, Jupiter in Cancer forms a supportive trine to Saturn in Pisces, linking your sixth sector of wellness and second sector of personal resources. This steady, grounding influence may bring constructive momentum to themes around health, daily rhythms, material stability, or workflow refinement. For you, Aquarius, this transit supports incremental growth rather than dramatic leaps, helping you stabilize new habits, refine long-term systems, or clarify what nourishes your sense of security. Saturn, your traditional ruler, offers sober discernment, while Jupiter contributes encouragement and resilience. Together, they invite you to cultivate both consistency and flexibility in the structures that sustain your well-being.

Sun, Mars, and Venus Square Saturn–Neptune Throughout the Month
Throughout December, the Sun, Mars, and Venus all travel through late Sagittarius, forming squares to Saturn and Neptune in Pisces, and activating tension between your eleventh sector of community and second sector of personal values and resources. This takes place just before these inner planets ingress into Capricorn, and highlights the balance between future-oriented dreams and the practical resources required to sustain them. You may notice where idealistic visions need clearer structure or where financial or energetic investments call for recalibration. Saturn, your traditional ruler, emphasizes responsibility and realism, while Neptune softens the edges, inviting you into subtler layers of intuition, imagination, and emotional insight. These squares are not about discouragement but about clarifying what is viable, aligned, and worth devoting your time or energy to.

Neptune Stations Direct – December 10th
Neptune stations direct on December 10th in your second sector of finance, subtly heightening themes around resources, value, and self-worth. For about a week, Neptune’s influence may blur practical details even as it amplifies intuition, imagination, and symbolic perception. You may notice a hazier quality around financial matters or a temporary gap between what you hope for and what the numbers actually show. This is a period that benefits from extra attentiveness to facts and pacing, allowing clarity to return as the Neptunian fog gradually lifts.

Mars Enters Capricorn – December 14th
Mars enters Capricorn on December 14th, activating your twelfth sector of hidden depth and mystery and drawing attention inward. This transit often coincides with a desire to conserve energy, complete lingering tasks, or address inner tensions that have been operating beneath the surface. It may feel easier to identify what supports your internal equilibrium, versus what drains you. Because Mars in Capricorn works methodically, this period encourages a slow burn rather than outward action, helping you prepare for the new momentum that arrives once Mars enters Aquarius in early 2026.

Sagittarius New Moon – December 19th
The Sagittarius New Moon of December 19th opens a fresh chapter in your eleventh sector of communities, collaborations, and long-range vision. With Venus near the Sun-Moon and square to the Saturn–Neptune conjunction, this New Moon invites sincerity, responsibility, and imaginative clarity regarding the networks you participate in and the goals that guide your choices. You may feel inspired to refine your future plans or reconnect with people who share your values. This moment is less about immediate action and more about setting intention for a broader trajectory that extends past the month and into the new year.

Sun Enters Capricorn – December 21st
The Sun enters Capricorn on December 21st, ushering in a quieter, introspective season as it moves through your twelfth sector. This shift may draw you toward reflection, integration, and spiritual renewal. You may feel more attuned to rest, retreat, dreams, and subtle inner shifts as the year draws to a close.

Venus Enters Capricorn – December 24th
Venus follows the Sun into Capricorn on December 24th, deepening your focus on inner harmony, emotional replenishment, and contemplative connection. Relationships may move at a gentler pace, guided by intuition and a desire for authenticity. This transit supports softness, closure, and quiet reconnection with your own inner landscape as the year softly winds down.
