You’re governed by Mercury, the planet of communication, and expression is one of your astrological superpowers. Whether you’re a writer, orator, comedian, or simply an on-point texter, language is one of your primary creative outlets. Here’s some fabulous news: on December 2, Jupiter—the planet of expansion—moves into the area of your chart that governs artistic endeavors for the next 12 months.

So if you’ve been feeling a bit stuck or unmotivated, fear not! Jupiter’s influence in this area was powerful the last time it occupied this area of your birth chart, between 2007 and 2009. Reflect on this time. Were you investing in exciting projects that made you proud? Although you may want to bury your Von Dutch hat, there may be some other initiatives that are worth revisiting. At the end of the day, this is about celebrating your gifts! Don’t be afraid to lean into your unique magic.

The last Full Moon of 2019 occurs on December 12 as the Sun in Sagittarius and Moon in Gemini face off in the sky. For you, this lunation activates your home and career zones, respectively. In order to achieve success, you need to have a stable foundation. Thing is, you’re most comfortable in your domestic environment when you feel inspired. During this Full Moon, focus more on feeling than doing, holding space to honor both your emotions and your ego. When you fuse the internal and external energies, you’ll have a deeper understanding of your wants and needs. Let’s face it, Virgo love: You're complex—and there’s nothing wrong with that. Treat yourself with tender love and compassion, and slowly but surely, everything will begin to make sense.

A new astrological season begins on December 21, as the sun slides into the like-minded earth sign. Now, your next great idea is right around the corner. While others flounder under Capricorn’s no-B.S. energy, this zodiac sign is actually invigorating for you. Over the next few weeks, all eyes will be on you, so get ready to plan your brilliant tour de force. You’re ready to shine.

There is—um—one small thing, though. You may want to wait until after the Solar Eclipse on December 26 before you launch any major artistic projects. Eclipses are powerful lunations that speed up time and perpetuate the inevitable, but they also distort reality. You may find yourself getting into some heated arguments with your family or closest companions during the holiday season, but don’t let this get you down. Instead, use this eclipse energy to reflect on your network.

Not everyone needs to understand your vision, but perhaps you’re indirectly connected to someone who may be able to help? Though the eclipse energy is too volatile to practice any manifestation, this s a great day to expand your network. So go ahead and send that cold email to a friend of a friend. What’s the worst that can happen? A new year is right around the corner, so why not kick it off with confidence. Hell yes!
