Friday the 1st starts December with the moon moving from Cancer to Le, where it stays until Monday. Use this weekend for self-improvement and exploring your interests, particularly on Sunday when the moon squares off with Uranus in Taurus. This fun seeking planet plus happy-go-lucky Leo supports what makes you shine.
After transitioning into Virgo Monday afternoon, the workweek shifts into high gear, particularly Tuesday night into Wednesday when the moon opposes Neptune going direct. This time is perfect for productivity and getting things done. On Thursday with the moon fully into Libra, use this sign’s ingenuity to finish up any loose ends before the weekend.
On Saturday the 9th, Mercury enters its storm before going retrograde, meaning more mishaps and miscommunication. However, it’s a perfect time to review the work you’ve put in thus far. With the waning moon in sensitive Scorpio, too, it’s better to spend time thinking through emotions before expressing them.
Tuesday the 12th, the New moon is in headstrong Sagittarius and Mercury goes retrograde the following day. It is strongly advised to hold off initiating any important plans right now and until the first week of January when this disruptive planet goes direct again.
Despite how much that fiery Sag energy has you wanting to take chances and try new things, now is not the time. Try to not give into the Capricorn moon’s need to lead Thursday and Friday either, and wait until the weekend to discuss ideas when an Aquarius moon is more conducive for getting along and community-building.
Monday the 18th, the moon is in Pisces and moves into Aries through Thursday night. This week will support creative projects and healing emotional wounds. Use Thursday, the winter solstice, as a day to set intentions for the next few months. With the Sun in action-oriented Capricorn this day, you can expect optimal results for whatever it is you set your mind to under this celestial energy. A tenacious Taurus moon over the weekend will help kick-start your plans.
On Christmas Eve, the moon enters social Gemini, perfect energy just in time for gathering with friends and family for the next couple of days. On Tuesday the 26th, Chiron, the planet of healing, goes direct with a full moon in family-focused Cancer, so expect that feel-good connectedness to last the rest of the week.
By Saturday the moon is in lucky Leo again and Jupiter, the planet of luck and abundance, goes direct. And on Sunday the 31st, the moon is in detail-oriented Virgo. Perfect energy for reviewing your resolutions.
And with just one more week before Mercury goes direct again, you can celebrate the New Year with high hopes for a bright and bountiful future.
