ASTROLOGY HAPPENINGS

Your Monthly Horoscope for December 2025

Omg what a year! Happy Birthday to all Sagittarius and Capricorn readers this month! Thank goodness, Mercury (communication) is direct now and our communication and planning will be much easier now.

December carries the feeling of a year preparing to turn a corner.

We begin the month under the influence of a Full Moon in Gemini on December 4, illuminating communication (again), but also curiosity, and the balance between thinking and feeling. It’s a reminder to speak truth with kindness and to listen beyond words.

Mid-month, Mars enters Capricorn (Dec 15), assisting to shift collective energy from exploration to tangible progress assisted by Neptune Direct in Pisces (the dream). Then the New Moon in Sagittarius invites faith, wisdom, and renewal of purpose. This lunation inspires vision before the Solstice Sun moves into Capricorn on December 21, asking us to ground that inspiration into reality. How much better can the preparation for Christmas be?

Throughout December, Jupiter in Cancer continues to expand emotional intelligence and highlight where security and nurturing truly come from. The story this month: believe in the next step, then build it consciously.

Here’s the breakdown, 1st week: Neptune and Saturn are in the last degree of watery Pisces, This is the last sojourn for this duo, into Pisces themes, and will close out in January, as they move into Aries.

Fire energy!- The first week of December has the Sun (identity) in fiery Sagittarius. Optimism and belief systems rule this 1st 2 weeks. Venus and Mars are roommates to the Sun helping us be so loving and taking action toward a bigger picture in our relations, and our dreams.

Mercury starts out in Scorpio and by the 12th adds to the passion party in Sagittarius. That’s a major bonfire!

December 4th Full Moon in Gemini, Highlighting socializing, joyful communication and learning. Unfortunately there will be a questioning of our purpose in life. To give up the thing we have been doing for so long? Or to take a risk and head toward the dream that stirs the heart.

This moon supports letting go of what is “no longer serving your best self”. How much internet do we consume regularly? How much gossip do we create or perpetuate? Are we using our mind to empower us or to merely entertain/distract us?

December 10th -Neptune stations Direct in Pisces and soon to enter Aries for 14 years!, as well Mercury moves into expansive Sagittarius. The mind will now become more enhanced, learning is easy and fun. It’s all about the big picture, not the details. The Dream is soon to be realized!

12/12 portal: in numerology- this is the day to connect with your inner desires that resonate with a higher vision.

December 14th - Mars moves into grounded and serious Capricorn. Lets get some sh** Done! Time to act now on those grand ideals and put something into motion. Just don’t be a “know it all”, nobody likes that… This may feel like a turning point from vision to structure—

December 19th New Moon in Sagittarius! Speak your truth, share your wisdom. Take a risk, go on an adventure! Plan that trip that really makes you drool! Consider taking a buddy along…or blogging about your travels. By the Solstice (Dec 21), when the Sun enters Capricorn, we move fully from exploration into embodiment. The cosmic question this month: Can we ground our dreams into reality without dimming their light?

December 21st - Happy Solstice Everyone! Now the Days will begin to get longer, woo hoo!

December 24th - Not only is it Christmas Eve but Venus moves into Capricorn, as you find yourself loving the idea of work and getting things done just in time for the holidays, LOL!

December 25th - Christmas is surrounded with Capricorn’s love for traditions, it proves to be an enjoyable day. Make those memorable recipes from childhood and steep into the tradition you grew up with!

FYI: 2025 was a Snake year (shedding old) and also a 9 year (endings). 2026 will be a Horse year ( big energetic energy) and a 1 year (new beginnings)... wow, Look out!
