Your Horoscope for the Week of December 9, 2019

This week, try to use the power of writing to harness your feelings. Journal if you’re not ready to reveal. Refresh copy on your bio, socials, or other comms that could do with some shameless spin. Open up to alternative means of data collection if the usual pathways are foggy. What’s hidden from your awareness that you’re not allowing yourself to see, feel, or otherwise understand? Intuitive Intel 101: “First thought is often the best thought” before you talk yourself down. Read on to discover your weekly horoscope for December 9 through to December 15, 2019, and double down by getting to know your rising sign.

Aries | Aries rising

Not everything can be understood with a rational approach, being broken down into logical facts, and not everything has some overarching symbolic meaning. Somewhere between these two points is another space, and that channel of information seems to be jamming up your well-ordered thought process. The more you resist it the more confused you’ll be. Combine all three sectors and you won’t need Google. We have access to all knowledge and nonordinary waking states. Dreams or just “knowing” is as valid as research found in a standard-edition textbook; it’s just harder to “prove.” Be open to the message behind the meaning, but don’t overdo it by searching for that meaning. Meanwhile, Mercury engages your mind in higher knowledge and tracking down flights for that much-needed vacay. Expand your experience, Aries.

Taurus | Taurus rising

Your money zone is getting all the attention this week as La Luna brings money matters to fruition. Set your intentions on the new moon to reveal what you’d like to see in terms of income, perhaps an opportunity for extra revenue or an investment opportunity. Even that perfect something you’ve been shopping for could be in the cards—if it’s anything to do with communication, it could be an investment, especially if it’s for work; make it a quality choice. A generous flow could come through a significant other; however, you’ll need to define what is yours and what is someone else’s. Mercury’s moving into your shared resources zone suggests an active bedside manner, and perhaps someone bringing you some useful information. If you’re emotionally investing in your “stuff” this week, make sure it doesn’t define or possess you.

Gemini | Gemini rising

Twin stars, midweek the annual full moon in your sign will have you feeling more abuzz with ideas and comms than the Twitterverse on a good day. Set your intention on getting your message out, crystal clear, to who will benefit the most. In your one-on-ones, balance your thoughts and messages with theirs; it’s okay for you both to have differing opinions—we never stop learning! You’ll benefit from talking with someone who can balance the polarity on your perspective, so keep an open mind and share views. Pass the talking stick so everyone has equal time. Apply sensitivity in terms of career, as there’s a challenge suggesting something’s unclear. Be open to softening and the way of flowing with your intuitive knowing.

Cancer | Cancer rising

Find a balance between solitude and your work, between checking out and committing to your daily duties. This week’s full moon lights up your zen zone. You may “channel” some interesting intel straight out of the cosmos, so take some time to zone out in the bath or curled up on the couch. Set your intentions for channeling any info you’re after. Try journaling, and open up to see what comes without judging it; you’ll be surprised once your feels start flowing into words on the paper. Mercury’s trotting into your work and daily routine suggests you have some great ideas to share. Direct your bright ideas so they’re not wasted chit-chatting by the water cooler or in excess meme creation on your socials. Aim for something substantial that could jump you to the next level or help you grab a promo opportunity.

Leo | Leo rising

The full moon energy ramps up to a communication highway in your friendship zone, otherwise known as ”adoring audience”; share your feels group-style. Make plans that get you out and about, preferably with a mic in your hand! If you've ever wanted to try out your speech-making style, this is your Toastmasters moment—or perhaps the open mic at a comedy club, IGTV special broadcast. Whatever it is, don’t overscript it; allow space to channel the creative muse. Balance your friendship circle with your various creative or romantic interests. If you’re picking up on a vibe that you can’t put your finger on because it’s not out in the open, initiate discussion and respect your intuitive intel. Set yourself a challenge to note how you “know” something. What was your first thought, and then did your rational mind kick in and change the script?

Virgo | Virgo rising

When the full moon lights up your career house, you know there’s an opportunity to make a special connection with someone you resonate within this area of life. It could be a woman, motherly type or someone taking an interest in nurturing you on your path. Let down your guard to connect your heart and your head then share from where they intersect, even if it's reaching out on your socials. Balance your public-image pursuits and personae with a solid grounding in your home base. Mercury’s moving into your home sector suggests a lot of comings and goings with inspired fireside debate and philosophizing. Strike a balance with under- and overthinking in your relationships. Someone may seem slippery—or is it you not communicating clearly? Guide your awareness by setting your intention on what you’d like to find, say, or know.

Libra | Libra rising

While the full moon is lighting up your zone of travel and philosophy, it’s not quite time to settle on the couch with a cozy cuppa and a blanket with your favorite cutie. Clarify your top priorities and work from the top down to balance out a busy mind and a hectic schedule. Round up random facts and ideas to reveal meaning and a bigger picture. Apply your mind to developing a personal philosophical system that inspires you. Your need for a higher connection through your work or dailies may conflict with the path your thoughts are running—how can you get into alignment and invite the muse in? Do you need time in nature or space for creative thought in your work? Consider a quick trip or even a short course to scratch that itch for expanding your intellectual horizons every which way.

Scorpio | Scorpio rising

Topics around what’s yours versus what’s mine are peaking with this week’s full moon. Use your value system to evaluate any offers that come from others. Your zone of intimacy is fully lit, so sharpen your bedside manner as you regale your lover with the seductive power of words and tone. Or perhaps this is your Romeo and Juliette balcony scene where you’re serenaded with words that resonate with depth. Watch a seductive yet illusory challenge coming from your romantic sector—your passionate raconteur may not be all she/he seems. Make sure there are no mixed messages. You’re dreaming of an ideal love, but that’s a big ask for a mere mortal to live up to. Enjoy your hazy fantasy, but make sure you have a return ticket to reality to avoid disappointment. Find a creative outlet to let off the extra steam!

Sagittarius | Sagittarius rising

Your zone of partnerships is lit to maximum by this week’s full moon in your opposite sign. Let La Luna’s midnight light reveal your intellectual match. Manifesting on a full moon is different than on a new moon. It’s more immediate because it illuminates what, or who, is ripe on the vine. Be clear on exactly what you want in a partner, BFF, or collaborator: What is the feeling, what the traits, you’re looking for? What would the daily look like? What do you want to experience and share? Either in your current, or in a new yet compelling potential, or in that person you haven’t met yet. Look around and note who may be capturing this light right now. They’re bound to be wordy, witty, and fun. Home or family factors may present a challenge to this perfect partnering, or something hidden you’re not yet aware of. Look closer before you make any commitments.

Capricorn | Capricorn rising

Allow the full moon to reveal something or someone that’s ripened or delivered in your work zone. Get clear on your mission statement and broadcast it, because sharing can connect you with whoever needs to hear your message. Let people know what you want in your career, and be clear. Balance your work and daily routines with some solitude, and allow your awareness to “check out” and “wander.” Daydreaming is important this month, as this is where your very best ideas are to be found. Rational facts may be elusive if you want to support your statements traditionally. You may not be able to “prove” all of your sources, but that’s okay. Don’t dismiss those misty images as a simple flight of fancy, but don’t look deeper for meaning if it’s not present. This is a balance hard to come by, but practice makes perfect.

Aquarius | Aquarius rising

Midweek the full moon draws out some interesting, creative ideas for fun, frolicking with friends, or putting your pen to paper as an outlet for your feelings. If you’re inspired to create a playlist on Spotify, this is your moment. You have some unique creative ideas to share that will resonate, so build it and they will come—pursue your interests and share. Podcasts, art, and writing are all valid mediums for your inner bard. If you’re drawn to contributing creatively to a collective (think a group art exhibition or reading), you usually have something enlightening to say, so keep your concept clear. For an extra personal reward, lend your creativity in support of a social or humanitarian cause. Watch for hidden costs or nonpayment. Look closer, and if something seems amiss, trust your intuition. If it’s not your responsibility to foot the bill, then don’t feel obligated.

Pisces | Pisces rising

The midweek full moon has your mood lit for sharing your thoughts by the fire, FaceTiming family (chosen or inherited), and putting your thoughts into words. Either you’re not presenting how you think you are, you may be many things to many people at the moment, and/or your outlook is set to the soft focus of an “in a perfect world” idealist. This does allow a chameleon aspect if you can use it in your favor. Short trips for work may be on the cards, as may inspiring ideas that translate directly to cash in the bank thanks to an easy flow into your finance sector. Healing self-worth and finance issues may be the subject of your socials, and rightly so—you have something worth contributing to these issues. Be kind to yourself and share your insights; you’d be surprised at the healing you can catalyze when others feel seen.
