Read your Sun/Rising horoscope for the winter solstice:

Aries

Think about the direction that you want to take in your career. Although it may differ from the road you’re currently on, you may find that a new path is necessary in order for you to evolve as a person. Plus, it will help evolve your professional aspirations.

Taurus

Looking at your life from a different perspective will give you the clarity that you need in order to make the necessary changes in the upcoming season. You may find that everything is going well and you just need to spruce a few things up to make it better.

Gemini

Your intuition is stronger than usual right now, urging you to lean into your gut feelings rather than logic. Before you start confusing your sentiments, try to find a middle ground that works for you that allows you to comprehend matters from both a cerebral as well as emotional place.

Cancer

You are more geared towards making others happy than yourself. Although it feels nice to help others, you shouldn’t give someone else all your energy. It’s okay to be selfish every now and then in an effort to not lose yourself in relationships. Giving does not mean completely forgetting about yourself.

Leo

Organizing your day-to-day routine can be challenging unless you commit to a schedule. Before you take on more than you can chew, figure out how much time you have in the day to deal with everything in your calendar. Spend some time prioritizing and re-organizing.

Virgo

Romance is warming up your life this winter solstice, making your heart soar by way of a new crush. If you’re in a partnership, you may find that the relationship is evolving and that you are recommitting to your significant other this cuffing season.

Libra

Spending time at home with loved ones is more your speed than going out to party with friends. You’ll relish in watching old rom coms and eating delicious comfort food. Get cozy on your couch while the temperature dips outside.

Scorpio

If you haven’t spoken to some members of your crew in a long time, then you should make the effort and reach out to them now. Don’t shy away from reconnecting with those you love and miss because of your pride. Send a friendly text to show you care.

Sagittarius

Taking a short trip a few hours out of town will get you in the mood to embrace your wanderlust sentiments for the first time in a few months. Plus, it will give you a chance to break out of your normal routine and have a fun experience. Get going!

Capricorn

Use the magical energy of the winter solstice to welcome in positivity for the new season by stating affirmations in the mirror. Since your birthday is coming up, you should try to embrace an optimistic vibe.

Aquarius

You may find yourself wanting to take time off from work and focus on relaxing. Choose an activity that isn’t tedious and allows your mind to be totally present. Put your needs first and opt to decompress and wash away the stresses you’ve been dealing with.

Pisces

Align yourself with a humanitarian endeavor that allows you to give back to your local community. Volunteering at a local organization such a meal center or a toy drive will boost your seasonal spirit. Give back to others!
