I know you’re eager to get on the other side of 2020 (and with very good reason), but before we hop into a new year, there’s still one more month left. And—believe it or not—these next few weeks are also historic. So let’s just jump right in, shall we?

On December 14, a Solar Eclipse in Sagittarius activates the area of your chart associated with passion and creativity, inspiring you to expand your reach. This eclipse is the third installment of an ongoing series that will continue through December 2021 (earlier eclipses in this series occurred on June 5 and November 30). Consider how your unique talents have transformed since this eclipse narrative began early June. Are you using your unique gifts to fuel powerful, positive change on both a micro and macro level? Remember, lion darling—you have the power to change the world. Under this electric sky, be sure to remember that you’re not just fueled by ego; you’re motivated by humanity. And maybe a few cute selfies, but whatever. That’s just #BigLeoEnergy.

But this isn’t all about you, Leo. In fact, huge shifts mid-month will remind you that you’re actually extremely committed to finding your cosmic “plus-one.” On December 17, stoic Saturn glides into Aquarius (your opposite sign), where it will remain through 2023. This is a big deal, lion love! If you were born between 1991 and 1994, Saturn’s motion will kick off your Saturn Return— a major astrological milestone that symbolizes adulthood. But, regardless of your birth year, this ringed-gas giant’s motion into Aquarius will be sure to take your commitment to the next level.

And that’s not all! Jupiter—the planet of luck and expansion—also moves into Aquarius on December 19, activating your partnership zone for the next twelve-months. Through December 2021, the cosmos will be “co-signing” all types of new, exciting opportunities. Whether you’re signing a legal contract or sliding an engagement ring on your finger, one thing’s for sure: Your life is about to change forever!

Grab a pen and mark your calendar for December 21. On this day, not only does the Sun moves into Capricorn (marking the Winter Solstice), but Jupiter and Saturn meet in the sky, forming a powerful astrological phenomenon known as the “Great Conjunction.” For thousands of years, astrologers philosophized about the significance of this union that occurs every 20 years (yes, Leo, the last time these planets linked up was the year 2000!). Under this sky, you begin to realize that you don't have to choose between your pack and your pride: You can have both! The Great Conjunction helps you realize that all different types of relationships are possible—sure, it takes planning, but (quite surprisingly) calendar management is the spice of life! It’s important to note that Jupiter and Saturn aren’t just launching a new 20-year cycle—this time, they’re also ushering in a 200-year cycle (“The Age of Aquarius”) that is associated with communication, innovation, and progress. Now, anything’s possible!

Last (but certainly not least), the month (and year!) concludes with a Full Moon in Cancer on December 29. Under this sky, you may discover that changes in your schedule have been transforming your life, so be aware of all the ways your world is expanding under this lunation. With the Moon illuminating your psychic zone, you’ll be receiving tons of extrasensory, intuitive messages, so be sure to keep a close eye on your subconscious—especially your dreams. My recommendation? Keep a journal close to your bed and be sure to jot down anything that comes up while you’re asleep. Dreams are a portal into powerful manifestation, so as we move into the new year, don’t be afraid to get plenty of extra sleep. Rest is essential right now, Leo! Enjoy the snooze!
