It’s your time to shine, Sagittarius—your season is in full swing and you’re filled optimism and excitement! It’s time to refocus on yourself and your personal goals. Where do you want to be a year from now? The foundation you lay now can and will get you there. A productive conversation takes place at the beginning of the month on December 1 when Venus in Sagittarius meets with Saturn in Aquarius. Plans are moving forward and you may receive news about someone who wants to support you along the way. On December 3, Neptune stations direct in Pisces and you may be more tired than normal. If you feel like you’re in a haze, this is your cosmic reassurance that it will pass. Carve out extra time for rest.

There’s a sense of longing and confusion in the air on December 4 when Venus, in your sign, clashes with Neptune in Pisces. You may feel more sentimental than normal and find it easier to romanticize a situation that doesn’t necessarily deserve the rose-colored glasses. This is wonderful energy to use for creative purposes, but just remember that it’s easy to get lost in fantasy right now. Not everything is what it seems! The cosmic reality check arrives on December 6 when Mercury, the planet of the mind, enters serious Capricorn. You’re thinking more about your financial security and building your wealth. What is practical and what will it take to bring you a sense of comfort and ease? This is a productive time to realign with your budget. News about your job, finances, or freelance work could also arrive.

The Full Moon in Gemini on December 7 marks a turning point in your relationships. This Full Moon is sitting next to frustrated Mars Retrograde in Gemini. This is a great time to air any grievances or set boundaries with someone you hold dear in your life. Addressing any conflicts that have been simmering will create the foundation for a healthier dynamic moving forward. Two of the luckiest planets in the sky share a sweet embrace on December 9 when Venus in Sagittarius meets with Jupiter in Pisces. You may be celebrating a milestone with family or spending time with loved ones. Exciting news about your living situation, property, or even your career could arrive. Later in the day, Venus enters Capricorn, bringing good luck to the financial sector of your chart. Ka-ching! You can use this energy to treat yourself, or to advocate for a raise. Either way, you deserve it! Know your worth.

You’re rethinking how you want to spend your time on December 17 when Mercury in Capricorn connects with Uranus in Taurus. You may receive sudden flashes of insight on habits you want to tweak or ways to streamline your to-do list. Insight arrives when you least expect it! Jupiter, the planet of expansion and joy, enters Aries on December 20, bringing us back to events, topics and themes that took place around May 10. Jupiter will invite you to reconnect with your joy and personal hobbies. Jupiter only enters this section of your chart every 12 years, so make the most of it! This is a very fertile time, whether you’re hoping to expand your family or embark on a new creative project. Today's energy reminds you that part of your job as a human is to take risks and have fun!

Capricorn season and the winter solstice arrives on December 21. Your focus doubles down on your finances and sense of comfort. How do you define financial security? What financial goals are you ready to commit to? You may also receive news about a raise, job opportunity, a big purchase. The Sun in Capricorn clashes with Jupiter in Aries on the same day, so perhaps you’re making a financial investment in a passion project! Then, the New Moon in Capricorn on December 23 invites an opportunity to set new goals around your money and resources.

Hold the phone, because Mercury Retrograde in Capricorn arrives on December 29! After all of the time you’ve spent thinking about your financial goals—well, you’re about to double down and start rethinking! There is a shift that needs to be made before you can move forward. This could signal the delay of a check, raise, or job opportunity. Trust that this is all happening so you can invest your time and resources wisely, and know that it will all clear up in a couple weeks. Mercury and Venus, both in Capricorn, meet and might bring some relief and clarity around these topics later that same day.

The year ends with a wave of intensity as Venus and Pluto, both in Capricorn, meet at the same point in the sky on December 31. Where has a scarcity mindset crept in? What old habits and thoughts about money are you ready to release? Your financial world can shift from destabilizing to empowering if you take the time to address some of what’s beneath the surface.
