Monthly Horoscope (December 2021)
Aries
21st March – 19th April
Aries, December is for studying, fantasising, and flying away, even if you do it all from the comfort of your couch. In reality, despite dealing with Christmas stress, it’s your long-term objectives that keep you afloat. The solar eclipse on August 4th offers big school news for you or your child, putting an end to a long period of difficulty for your family in this area. The scholarship money has been authorised, and it appears that, despite the odds, everything will work out. On the 13th, as Mars enters your travel sector, wanderlust takes over. If you can’t afford a trip abroad, go out for a night to a fine sushi restaurant and think you’re in Japan.
Love – On the 18th, Venus will retrograde in your career sector, causing changes at work for both you and your partner. One of you is taking on more tasks at work, which means the other is shouldering additional responsibilities at home. This isn’t going to be a straightforward deal, and it’ll take a lot of talking for the rest of the winter.
Money – Throughout the month, the planets are converging in Capricorn and your career sector, signalling that you’re ready to take on additional leadership roles at work. However, Saturn’s last conjunction with Uranus on the 24th may cause workplace rivalry to spiral out of control as the year draws to a close. Keep your eyes on your own paper, as the adage goes.
Taurus
20th April – 20th May
December begins with you still reeling from the moon eclipse in your sign on November 19th, which threw your entire sense of self into disarray. The solar eclipse on the 4th, thankfully, is less personal. You and your business partner, on the other hand, are finally integrating your money! Then, on the 19th, your ruling planet Venus goes retrograde in your travel sector, and you can’t stop yourself from planning a big trip or going back to school. This isn’t just a figment of your imagination; it’s a part of your fundamental being. What if you could work from anywhere in the world and see more of it?
Love – On the 13th, Mars enters your shared resources sector, making it impossible to conduct a discourse about “me”; it’s always about “we.” Your partner is going through it, and while you want to help, the incessant negative comments is wearing you down. What’s beginning to feel like a burden?
Money – You’re motivated to plan to get out of debt after the solar eclipse on the 4th. Whether you’re finally paying off your college loans or finally paying off years of parking citations, the first step is to shift from a scarcity perspective to an abundance mindset. You’re feeling more in charge of your personal cash flow by the full moon in Gemini on the 19th.
Gemini
21st May – 20th June
The solar eclipse on the 4th brings breakups and breakthroughs in relationships, bringing an end to a difficult chapter in your love life. However, the conclusion is refreshing. Everywhere you go, you’re scheduling meetings, setting up dates, and meeting new people. When you know what you want, connecting is simple! Then, on the 13th, Mercury moves into your shared resources sector, causing a lot of anxiety about debts, loans, and credit, especially because you’ve spent the majority of the month shopping for the holidays. What expenses can be eliminated from the budget? But don’t be too hard on yourself—the full moon in your sign on the 19th (the first in years that isn’t eclipsed) shines a bright light on you and your personal development.
Love – On the 4th, a solar eclipse brings an end to a relationship that has been dragging you down for a long time. This is an emotional, not a physical, clean separation. There are a lot of logistical aspects to iron out, such as who gets the Taylor Swift tickets and are you still splitting his sister’s Christmas gift?
Money – There’s a lot to hash out in terms of debts, taxes, and bills during the next few months, with Venus retrograde in your shared resources sector on the 18th. You’ve been putting off paying off that credit card debt for years, but what if you finally did? Admitting you have a problem is the first step.
Cancer
21st June – 22nd July
You’ve been on a relentless journey with your health, fitness, and everyday maintenance for the past few years, and the solar eclipse on April 4th draws that chapter to a close. Stay hydrated and keep your schedule open to manage all the essential details if an administrative nightmare or health worry with you or your pet arises around this time. You spend the middle of the month talking about holiday plans with your partner or best friend. You wish someone else could just take care of everything for you, but the intricacies must be worked out by you. Allow time for yourself, as the full moon in Gemini on the 19th will descend in your unconscious sector, encouraging you to prioritise slumber.
Love – Have you lost the spark in your relationship in the name of stability? “Love by its very nature is unstable,” Esther Perel, our favourite Belgian psychotherapist, says in Mating in Captivity. So, what’s holding you from opening up? All types of power dynamics and intimate difficulties are up for evaluation with Venus retrograde in your partnership sector on the 18th. Things that were previously brushed under the rug must now be addressed.
Money – Jupiter’s transit through your shared resources sector this year has made it easier for you to find extra help and generosity. Taking out your partner’s health insurance relieves you of a lot of financial stress, but how can you keep consolidating when “luck” isn’t always on your side?
Leo
23rd July – 22nd Aug
On the 4th, a difficult chapter in your dating life, creative practise, or relationship with your children comes to an end with the solar eclipse in Sagittarius. You’re feeling energised this month, thanks to Mars’s transition into the archer’s sign on the 13th, to get back out there or, at the very least, to find time for hobbies again. Then, on the 21st, the sun enters Capricorn, kicking off your annual wellness kick. You’re taking your vitamins, signing up for Pilates intensives, and managing to stay sober at every Christmas gathering. When you go all out, you go all out. How can you add more moderation to this habit to make it more sustainable?
Love – On the 4th, a solar eclipse makes you aware of exactly what you don’t desire in a lover. There have been numerous prospects for love this year because Jupiter has spent the entire year in your partnership sector, but none of them have seemed quite right. However, the desire for connection persists. What makes you want to say “yes” after a year of “no” spent defining your boundaries?
Money – On the 29th, Jupiter enters your shared resources sector, bringing a windfall to your mutual interests. Now is the time to apply for grants, take out loans, and sign company contracts. You may be confident that you’re getting the best deals if you take the time to carefully consider the details.
Virgo
23rd Aug – 22nd Sept
On the 4th, a stormy chapter in your home and family life comes to an end with the solar eclipse. You know where you stand in any fight, whether it’s with your mother or your landlord. Then, on the 13th, Mars enters Sagittarius, providing you the energy to make home modifications. After years of it all coming apart, you’re finally gathering up the pieces. Throughout the holiday season, Mercury in Capricorn, which began on the 15th, keeps your thoughts on your children. It’s not simply acts of service that speak to you; it’s also attention to detail. Giving thoughtful gifts to your children offers so much joy.
Love – On the 18th, Venus retrogrades in your romance sector, allowing you an extended period (until late January) to rediscover old lovers. Reviewing all those horrible dates and messed-up relationships does more than make you grimace or laugh; it also helps you uncover your hidden intimacy and relationship issues. It’s time to bring out the old diaries and perform some shadow work!
Money – On the 19th, the Full Moon in Gemini gives your career an uncomplicated boost. Finally, you’re receiving genuine acknowledgement that doesn’t leave you feeling overwhelmed, frustrated, or unsatisfied. The retrograde of Venus also brings up issues of scarcity for you. How can you deal with these emotions without succumbing to them?
Libra
23rd Sept – 22nd Oct
For years, tectonic shifts have been occurring in your home and family life. You may not notice these changes on a daily basis, but consider where you lived and how you interacted in 2008. Haven’t you gone a long way? On the 18th, your ruling planet Venus enters Capricorn, prompting you to reflect on not just the last few months of your relationships, but also the last decade of foundations you’ve laid. What impact has your living environment had on your relationship dynamics and sense of self? Even if you have a lot of family activities planned this holiday season, make sure you set aside time to reflect and refresh. For the time being, the answers you seek should be kept hidden.
Love – Your friendship group may be shaken up by the solar eclipse on the 4th, even though your partnerships are stable. Someone in the group chat who is continuously letting you down or making you feel inferior has to go. Breaking up with a friend is difficult, but consider how much more love you’ll have to give once you’ve severed ties.
Money – On the 24th, Saturn and Uranus collide for the final time, bringing an end to a tumultuous chapter in your financial freedom. You’ve been creatively restricted on the road to success, whether you’ve been creating your own business, becoming freelance, or simply taking on more personal initiatives at work. How do you ensure that your work fits your integrity moving forward now that you’ve faced the last of the significant setbacks?
Scorpio
23rd Oct – 21st Nov
As your ruling planet Mars finishes its time in your sign before shifting into Sagittarius on the 13th, your main concerns this month are identity and monetary flow. The most important item to consider as you examine 2021 and prepare for 2022 is how you can better advocate for yourself. With your relationships in flux following last month’s lunar eclipse, you may feel frantic or befuddled as the holidays approach. Consider how you may be a better lover to yourself instead of jumping into a fling or returning to a terrible relationship.
Love – On the 18th, Venus goes retrograde in your communication sector. Your goal for the next few months is to explain your needs more clearly. Not only to your partner, but also to other lovers and close friends. What issues are you willing to put off in order to keep the peace? What’s painful to bring to the surface isn’t always what’s most important to say.
Money – The majority of this month is centred on your personal wealth, with the solar eclipse on the 4th and Mars entering Sagittarius on the 13th. You’re short on cash, but you’re also motivated to address some of your most pressing financial concerns. On the 19th, the full moon in Gemini exposes some clear paths to help you get out of a financial bind. When help is offered, accept it.
Saggittarius
22nd Nov – 21st Dec
Jupiter, your ruling planet, has been transiting your third house of local environment and communications since December 2020. This mode of transportation has improved your technical skills and enriched your creative activities while also expanding your relationships with neighbours and extended family. There are so many things you can accomplish now that seemed impossible last year, such as learning Photoshop, mastering new recipes, and strengthening family bonds through a group chat with all your relatives. Jupiter enters Pisces on the 29th, ushering in a period of house expansion for you. The space you seek is on the horizon, whether it’s an empty nest or an apartment without roommates.
Love – The 4th of July solar eclipse is all about making your own decisions. That’s prioritising yourself over your career, your family, and, yes, even your budding romance. You’ve learned a lot about what you need from a partner over the previous several years, but it’s your self-love that has been spiritualized. The full moon on the 19th is a great time to celebrate yourself and your friends.
Money – On the 18th, Venus retrogrades in your money sector, signalling a period of evaluation, reversals, and refinancing until late January. This voyage took place between December 2013 and January 2014. What financial blunders did you make back then, and how can you prevent making them again now?
Capricorn
22nd Dec – 19th Jan
Planet of Love Prepare to reconsider your appearance, demeanour, and overall vibe for the next six weeks as Venus spends the entire month in your sign and goes retrograde on the 18th. Though this isn’t the time to make a permanent change to your hair, clothes, or skincare routine, it might be enjoyable to add some (washable) pink streaks to your hair or pull out one of your cute college gowns to wear to a Christmas party. What’s old is new again, and who’s to say that what worked before won’t work now?
Love – On the 4th, a solar eclipse falls in your unconscious sector, which could lead to a squabble with your partner. It’s time to air your grievances, whether you’ve been secretive or he’s been concealing information. The full moon on the 19th sees the two of you return to your usual partnership and routine after venting your frustrations.
Money – On the 24th, Saturn forms its final conjunction with Uranus, bringing an end to a chaotic financial time. Even if it means giving up your freelance goals or putting your business on wait, there’s something reassuring about getting back to a routine.
Aquarius
20th Jan – 18th Feb
This year has made you feel like a one-man army. The solar eclipse on the 4th marks the end of a period in which you felt socially isolated, as you understand that certain connections must terminate in order for you to cultivate the ones that offer you joy. Jupiter has been in your sign since December 2020, and as it enters its final month of increasing your energy and vigour, you’ll be able to see how far you’ve come since last year. You’re set to start reaping the advantages of all that personal progress as the expansion planet shifts into Pisces on the 29th.
Love – On the 18th, Venus begins her retrograde in your unconscious region, making this an ideal month to retire from the dating scene. If you’re already married, you may choose to dine or go to the movies alone, as well as handle holiday shopping on your own. Accepting your worries and improving your relationship with yourself will only improve your relationship.
Money – On the 29th, Jupiter, the planet of luck and good fortune, enters your money sector, bringing in a new financial age in 2022. You received a sneak peek at this asset expansion between May and July of this year. This rapid rise may seem overwhelming at first, but remember to count your blessings as they come in.
Pisces
19th Feb – 20th March
Let’s face it, Pisces, 2021 was not the best year of your life. You spent more time alone this year than you did even during the depths of early lockdown in 2020, thanks to both Saturn and your ruler planet Jupiter occupying space in your unconscious sector. You finally get some fresh air in December. While it’s good to be out of the shadows, you might miss the solitude after it’s gone. On the 19th, the full moon in Gemini provides as a soft kickoff for your new age. You’re throwing a small holiday gathering with your closest friends and family, and you’re getting used to letting people back into your space. Things are moving at breakneck pace by the time Jupiter enters your sign on the 29th. Your year of power will be 2022.
Love – On the 13th, chatty Mercury enters your social sector, making you more eager to mingle at this year’s Christmas festivities. You’re flirtatious, vibing, and creating loads of connections whether you’re single or partnered. This month, you’re also a fantastic matchmaker, so start throwing out feelers for all your single friends.
Money – The solar eclipse on April 4th will provide definitive information regarding your career’s future moves. Less is actually more, whether you’re taking maternity leave or reducing your hours at a side hustle that’s draining you.
