Weekly Astrology January 15th 2024 Forecast for All Signs – PLUTO in AQUARIUS!!
ARIESEnter a brave new world
Play with many possible futures
Love reborn needs to be future-proof
A major career phase or undertaking culminates this week with the final meeting between the Sun and Pluto in your 10th (20th). You’ve known this moment was coming, Aries. Step into your power and make your move. Yes, Pluto will return once more to your 10th. But it will do so without engaging with the Sun in here. So, this conjunction truly marks the end of one era of personal ambition. And the start of a new one.
Within hours of this, the Sun will have arrived in your 11th and Pluto follows the following day. Are you prepared to join in the great, universal groundswell of people-powered change that will shift everything from your social life to how your society is structured to your ability to manifest your goals? Do see your Pluto in Aquarius Forecast for Fire Signs. But also consider the following as extra: travel or simply the willingness to move with the unusual, dynamic and electrifying different puts your future on a new path.
Pluto’s arrival back into your 11th slightly overshadows the Venus/Ceres conjunction in your 9th. In mythology, Ceres was Pluto’s mother-in-law. She was fearless and took 0 crap. The unmovable force and power with which Pluto had to negotiate. For you this extends to you potentially getting what you want. Or the way forward to it. If something is reborn in a new form or revives this week, it could be with new meaning. If that’s an old lover, do however ensure that you have both dealt with the issues that caused you to split in the first place if you don’t want to re-check into Heartbreak Hotel. If there had been no change, you may realise there never will be. That, too, frees you. Time for a new world order and a better deal.
In a nutshell: Pluto moves into your 11th of friends, contacts and group endeavours this week. Marking the end of a major cycle and the beginning of a new one. There’s a new deal on the table regarding your goals – and your future, Aries.

TAURUSBreak yourself free
Empowerment fires those ambitions
It’s now or never, Taurus!
Like a countdown to an interstellar rocket, you’ll feel the now or never moment arrive when you reach the zero-ignition point this week (20th). This is your Go/No Go moment. When you deeply and radically commit once and for all. Or stay on the launchpad of your dreams, simply wistfully looking at the stars instead of touching them.
Plant seeds for a rich harvest later regarding work and business goals. It’s not about reaping overnight rewards but putting in long-term and sustained effort with an eventual pay-off. But if it’s what you love, you are more than willing to do what it takes now, as quiet ambitions are favoured. There’s no need to tell the world how smart you are when you know it inside for certain.
On the romance front, take care not to ruin a good thing by wanting it all your own way. Singles could meet someone whose sensual appetite matches their own, but don’t derail that Love Train by calling all the shots or, worse, allowing control or manipulation issues to darken the fantasy. Fall in love with a real human being and don’t get caught up in fantasy. They’re not perfect and heads-up – neither are you, but are you perfect for each other?
In a nutshell: The path towards empowerment is lit now as Pluto changes signs and moves into your sector of long-term ambitions and status, Taurus. Before this occurs, don’t ignore one final opportunity to break free of anything holding you back from achieving this.

GEMININowhere is ‘Off Limits’ now
What happens together stays in the vault
Ride the wild dragon!
From May onwards, you’ll be exploring long-term partnerships in all their various forms and the power of two. Regarding Love in the Time of Pluto in Your 9th – don’t be afraid to cultivate an aura of mystery (different to game playing). And also – keep Me + You stuff where it belongs – between the two of you and in the couple vault.
Pluto, now in your 9th, is the wild dragon you tame and ride. There’s no more imprisonment by fear, Gemini. And as for going there – there’s no Area 51 in your life that is off-limits either. You’re about to step into previously no-go areas. And discover just what secrets they hold.
There’s a power to holding on to secrets (just ask a Scorpio!), but the bottom line is – if you are told something in confidence, keep it. If you are tempted to blab your reputation will suffer. Or worse, the other party will feel betrayed. The other side of this coin is needing to confide in another. Ensure that the vault of secrets is on lockdown, and if you have any doubts at all about your confidant, it is better to opt for a professional whose confidentiality is guaranteed than take a risk. That partnership exploration I promised may begin sooner rather than later as a hot and intense encounter could be the fire that sustains you into summer.
In a nutshell: You’re not out to slay the dragons – you’re here to ride them as Pluto changes signs and moves into your 9th. Be propelled by final and transformative changes into your boldest cycle yet!

CANCERSeize the power of love
Be ready for transformation
Change starts here
Pluto returns to its ruling 8th this week. Changes lie ahead but don’t fear the ‘c’ word as transformation means rebirth to follow. If things do not change they cannot improve and this week begins the process which could usher some long-overdue shifts for a reason: to set the tone for improvements for the rest of 2024. This especially applies to your intimate relationships, your money, shared assets and that all-important sense of personal power.
A break from work restrictions may be on the horizon, and if traveling, you could feel a deep spiritual connection to your destination. However, ensure your desire to explore other worlds doesn’t lead you to stop paying attention to what is happening in this one. Keep your wits about you whether you are staying close to home or going further afield, and pay attention to work details, or you could come back down to earth with a bump. The meeting between Venus and Ceres in your 6th tells you that a fresh work/life balance deal will be struck this week. And its effects will be lasting.
The headline cosmic act, however, is Pluto’s shift from your 7th. Before it leaves, it meets the Sun in here, throwing a final spotlight on a key relationship issue. Seize the power of love when it comes to tackling anything outstanding between you and another. You are now about to move forward into a new era where you have far more power in determining where relationships take you than you have ever had before. This also applies to your money. Know whatever your circumstances – you have the power now to change them. Get ready for total transformation, Cancer.
In a nutshell: You’ve been preparing for this moment. Make the final adjustments to that work/life balance. And prepare for self-directed and empowered changes to follow, especially around money and your intimate life, as Pluto changes signs this week.

LEOThat’s the power of love, Leo!
Ready to knock on a new door?
It’s all in the timing
Pluto in your 7th is about the transformative power of love. But you’ll experience it very differently from anything you have in the past, Leo.
If you’ve been putting that partner on a pedestal, they could come crashing down. But if this happens – think about who put them up there in the first place. New beginnings with partners beckon so even if Humpty is in bits, chances are you could put them back together stronger. Ruler the Sun arrives in your 7th the day before Pluto (20th). Warming up partnerships and bringing love back in from the cold.
Singles could see the emergence of an enticing prospect or joint venture take off. Timing plays a huge role in what happens now. If the time is right for love, that new job or journey, then provided you put in the groundwork, it will happen. Look to the 16th and the meeting between Venus and Ceres in your 5th and what is on offer for you now.
However, if it’s not right, perhaps it is time for a ‘hands-off’ approach. Saturn continuing in your 6th reminds you of this. And to look at how you can fine-tune efforts for future success. Fate plays a role now as destiny puts people or opportunity in your path. One thing is certain, if you are banging on doors which remain closed – time to try a different door.
In a nutshell: Ruler the Sun and Pluto both arrive in your 7th of duos, duets and double acts this week. Do you want to discover how love can reshape your world, Leo? Time for the transformation which takes two.

VIRGOExplore fresh horizons in feel good practices
Embrace new ways of working
Feel your best to roll with the good times, Virgo!
Even if others can’t see it, you should know deep down that you have attained some serious success regarding spiritual and personal goals. The movement of planets into your 6th this week also marks a total reinvention of your work, routine, and attitude to it. This extends from the invisible world within you, to practical matters in your outer world. Health and habits for instance, now the Sun and then Pluto, land in your 6th. Expect matters related to your work, studies and habits to totally transform. New ideas around what ‘wellness’ entails flow to you from the collective. Investigate further in your usual Virgo fashion. You’ll embrace them mind, body and soul. There’s more in your Pluto in Aquarius for Earth Signs forecast.
This accompanies a shift as you use the gains made on perhaps an intangible level – as in inner growth and knowledge, and now apply them to practical matters. In work and in life. What do you think forms the foundation for outer success in the first place? You’ve got it – all that inner work and wisdom. Without them, external rewards are likely to be ephemeral.
You’ll experience tangible and material benefits from this manifest later in the year but for now, stick with the program. The start of the year may actually deliver the first long-term benefit from all this with your name on it, which enhances your future on some level. Also, you’re serving some serious intent now. Leaving no-one doubting the fact that you mean business. All thanks to Saturn in your 7th. And ruler Mercury clear of retro-shade puts romance and good times back within reach. You’ll stun everyone later this year with what you have been up to but for now – keep up the good work.

LIBRAWork that star quality
New deal, new day
Your most powerful cycle of attraction – ever, starts here!
Whatever that mojo is you’re working as Pluto lands in your 5th (21st), other signs can only look on with envy and wonder where they can get some. And yes, expect your inner Diva or Divo to be unleashed. There’s a touch of star quality about you. You’ll look and act the part.
Time to take control of the direction you want your life to head in. Not just for the week, the month, or even the coming year – but far beyond into the exciting, yet-to-be-formed possibilities that exist with the quantum for you. Because any life you can imagine for yourself, you can attract or live now in some way, shape or form, Libra. Do see your Pluto in Aquarius Forecast for Air Signs.
Do set in motion whatever actions you can to make them happen, rather than simply wishing. If you do this you will set a series of events in motion which will bring fresh opportunities and also new connections to your door which will benefit you in the longer term. This is not a time to either stay hidden or be a passenger on the Oriental Express train of life. The time for action is now as the Sun enters your 5th (20th) – a day ahead of Pluto. News could be on its way from something which you could have set in motion at the tail end of ‘23. If so it is either the catalyst for or part of this process.
Ruler Venus intertwines with Ceres in your house of news, business, communications, travel and the internet. Here is where you bring your mojo power to bear, Libra. With that idea, conversation, contact, plan – its taking you places and you may not be going there alone.
In a nutshell: The Sun and Pluto arrive in your 5th house this week, Libra. Awaken your inner superstar. Think of yourself as a powerful hunter of romance, pleasure and stardom. Nothing can elude you if you try.

SCORPIOStep into a new cycle of living
Find your community
Craft that win/win
Ruler Pluto is on the move – into your house of home, roots, family, country, security and traditions. All these need to be sustainable. Shaky foundations? You’ll know if you’ve been building on bedrock or quicksand. And if you hold beliefs different from those you were brought up with, then prepare to follow these and not the family or cultural line. Pluto has one more brief revisit planned to your 3rd later this year. But aside from that, your ruler is now set for a 20 year extended homestay in here.
Home also means community for many of us. If you are searching for this, or need to create your own family from friends or those with whom you share something, expect to find yours.
If something is limiting, untenable or you feel you can no longer live with it, then know that this marks the time when change is not only necessary, but is likely to occur even without your participation. However, it is important to understand that any issues cannot be solved without change. And often this means disruption – even temporarily. Pluto is about to change where and how you are living. Take action if you can rather than waiting for it to take hold anyway.
Need the resources to make this happen? Venus rules your 2nd and meets with Ceres on the 16th. A deal could be crafted or sits on the table for you. With both these planets in the mix – take it that it’s a win/win for both you and the other party. Gains should be put towards that longer term vision rather than just an excuse to splurge. Plus you have a final meeting between Pluto and the Sun in your 3rd favouring business and contracts. Time to move with the times. And move with Pluto.
In a nutshell: Ruler Pluto enters Aquarius and your 4th this week. Expect your home, lifestyle and path to change. As could your idea of family and community. There’s no place like the place you can live in and belong to now.

SAGITTARIUSSay yes to the deal
Take that idea and run with it
Ready to ride a horse of a different colour?!
Get ready to do something different, Sag. The more unique and original your ideas – the more you need to do something with them. An off-beat romance with someone who is their own person could offer your heart-starter for Pluto’s incursion into your 3rd. Especially as it occurs the week when Venus and Ceres entwine in a new deal in love-making moment in your 1st on the 16th.
One individual you encounter or even read about on-line, could have a profound and permanent impact on your thinking. A multiverse of possibilities opens up for you. This Venus cycle also extends your yearly new beginnings and personal relaunch period. Making you carefree, playful and willing to experiment. Attraction and romance could be drawn to you. Anything stuck in stasis miraculously unsticks as Mercury finally clears its retroshade period.
Success from this point on, could very well rest on your willingness to explore new groups of people, new ideas, new places and a different social scene as well as that lover who can only be described as a horse of a different colour. You know you need to keep mixing it up to avoid boredom so this should leave you with nothing to complain about. What or who you are seeking may be found in unusual places, people and circumstances. As the Zen saying goes: Cast your line into every pool. Where you least expect it – there will be a fish.
In a nutshell: Ideas which have the power to connect and shift your future on to a new pathway feature now Pluto moves into your 3rd. Take a different approach. And make a different choice. It tells the universe you are ready for change.

CAPRICORNDirect your financial destiny
Communicate those changes
What you reflect attracts
Take your time with money matters as the Sun and Pluto leave your sign this week. And resist any hard sell either financially or emotionally. Is someone trying to convince you that this is the best deal you will likely get? That’s a red flag right there if so.
Pluto’s journey through your 1st should have shown others that you are no push-over. But you may have to deliver that message one more time. What’s more, any delays may work in your favour. Either because you find a better deal. Or the other party offers it. Has your idea of that ideal love changed at all lately? This could be working either way for you – if you have gone for the ‘opposites attract’ theory up until now you could fall for someone exactly like you – or vice versa.
Pluto is preparing to exit your sign for good. You have one more brief re-visit from it later in the year. Then it will move into your 2nd in November never to return. And remain in this house for the next 20 years. Bringing you transformations with your income. And power over your money.
Remember who we attract is a reflection of us on some level and if you attract someone different this is a sign of a shift. Go over what is said, emailed or communicated to you carefully. Time could reveal another meaning or clear up a misunderstanding. If sending anything out – well, proof read first. The truth could be in the subtext now, whether you realize what’s been said at the time – or not.
In a nutshell: Pluto exits your sign this week. And it may be time to demonstrate the changes that have occurred within you. Someone could reflect these via a deal on the table or by who you attract. Mirror, mirror on the wall – who is the most powerful sign of all?!

AQUARIUSInvent and innovate
Welcome in a new friendship dynamic
Happy Plutonic Birthday, Aquarius!
You’ve got the power within you, Aquarius. Are you ready to unleash it? To become the inventor/innovator of your own life? Watch how the arrival of the Sun in your sign (20th) and then Pluto (21st), picks up the pace around you. You know you are so ready for this phase. Expect a total reinvention or rebirth to occur over the next 20 years for you, depending on where you have your Aquarius planets.
Pluto will impact those of you with your Sun or other factors at 0-1 degree of your sign. If you are uncertain one of our astrologers can help. Also see your forecast for Pluto in Aquarius for the Air Signs. Pluto will return to your 12th for one brief revisit later this year. But by November it will be back in your sign for good.
For now, sudden changes and shifts solve any outstanding issues either at home or work. That inner entrepreneur or CEO within you rolls with the changes. If any residual baggage is left over, you’ll fearlessly clear it out. This week sees a key alignment between Venus and Ceres in your 11th of friends and the future. There’s a new deal on the table for you. If its to do with work this could be you adapting and exploring fresh technology. Certainly, you’re taking an innovative approach. It’s also a good week to explore new possibilities with friendships and collaborations. Dare to make the first move. The news is door-knocking this week. Open the portal wide and allow it all to rush in.
In a nutshell: Embrace one of the most powerful cycles of your life for change and implementing those dreams, Aquarius. Pluto follows the Sun into your sign this week. Bringing you empowerment and the ability to go fearlessly towards your goals.

PISCESFuse insight and advice for the best possible outcome
Review the past from a new perspective
The present offers a new opportunity
Success follows your intuition. So, follow that, Pisces. Please don’t ignore what that inner voice has to say.
The 20th shows you that when it comes to your goals, you can’t wait for your fairy godmother to turn up. You must be prepared to do whatever it takes to make it happen. There’s also a need to follow your own path. And look very closely at who encourages you to do that. And who doesn’t? You may find yourself at a pivotal moment with a friend or even a group of them which tells you once and for all – who has your back and who doesn’t. This is the end of the fake friends era. And the beginning of the real one.
The lens through which you view your life is about to change. When we change how we see things, everything else changes to. We also reclaim any lost power. Pluto back in your 12th is about to transform how you view your past totally. While Saturn in your sign gives you the grounding to move on from it. An experienced friend or contact may also prove to be a valuable resource for you regarding advice. They may also validate those feelings you’ve been channelling.
Venus and Ceres conjunct in your 10th (16th) puts you in a position to broker yourself a better deal when it comes to your career. Some of you could be looking at a raise or a better offer this week. This promises a new phase where you can craft an audacious and bold success story for yourself. Plus this pairing tells you that it’s a win for both parties. Rewriting the past for you begins with a move in the present.
In a nutshell: Pluto puts the finishing touches to friends and goals before joining the Sun in your 12th. Power up that insight, Pisces. But also don’t be afraid to ask others for advice. A new pathway lies ahead as your focus shifts from the past to new possibilities.

Your New Moon in Capricorn Moonscope January 11th 2024
Lovers keep on lovin’
Believers keep on believin’,
Sleepers just stop sleepin’
‘Cause it won’t be too long
Higher Ground, Stevie Wonder
The first new Moon of ‘24 appears at 20 degrees of Capricorn. Stirring our ambitions and seeing us aiming for higher ground. Whether this is on a professional or personal potential level. The lyrics to Stevie Wonder’s Higher Ground (1973 – yes, way back when dinosaurs roamed the earth and there was no internet), revolve around reincarnation and ‘trying again’. That’s pure Capricorn energy. Never giving up. Using what we have learned from our past and applying it for a better, higher result.
Along with Scorpio, Capricorn is one of the most misunderstood signs of the zodiac. The sea goat isn’t about unimaginative, dour and rigid thinking. Or about sacrificing everything in the name of ambition. Its ruler Saturn is the most beautiful planet in our solar system. If you have ever gazed at it through a telescope, you know those rings out-shine anything in Tiffany’s. Its about working within a boundary. Bringing out the beauty within so it acts as protection and a beacon for us.
When we think of Capricorn we need to use words like creatively tenacious, wise, responsible, consistent, determined, ownership and leader. Make no mistake, that cliched, besuited exterior conceals a sensual rockstar. But one who has ditched the drugs and is all rock and roll. And who keeps on trying, till they reach their highest ground.
ARIESBattle plan or simple business plan, Aries? The new Moon in your 10th triggers a desire to aim for something, conquer that challenge and then – yes, enjoy the spoils. You know how to achieve that fine balance between outer ambition and emotional satisfaction. One is an empty victory without the other.
This is also about utilising your inner resources. Experience + focus = success. If we don’t learn from our past, we will repeat it until we do. And if we scatter the resources we have, we don’t get the results we are after. So, focus on that uppermost goal in your mind. And then commit but directing everything you have into it. No wavering, no detours and no doubts. You are the boss now. Of your own path and destiny. Tap into the highest vibration you can. Look to the loftiest vision you have for yourself. Imagine what success looks like for you. Then hold that feeling it hands you. That’s both your focus and your fuel.
This new Moon is in your house of status and public image. So, that big ambition could be around your relationship status or on-line ambitions just as it could be around becoming CEO of your own dot com. I could say the skies the limit with what you begin now, Aries. Are you ready to discover what the view from the top looks like?
TAURUSThis new Moon favours the earth signs. And you are enjoying it with Jupiter in your own sign for the first time in 12 years. Do check for any Taurus factors at the 20 degree mark. The message here is: Go further. Whether you have the 20 degree factors or not.
What’s been limiting those ambitions, Taurus? Do you see those excuses, speed bumps, restrictions and limitations for what they are? It doesn’t matter if they are self-imposed or outer barriers. This new Moon hands you the ability to cut them down to size. Or dismiss them – once and for all. It asks: If not now, when? If you are still telling yourself the timing isn’t quite right, then look at how long you’ve been saying this. It may be the timing may never be perfect. But Jupiter having your back along with this new Moon tells you the time is NOW.
Take that first step towards a longer journey. Yes, this is a new Moon of voyages. This can be an actual trip as it is in your 9th of travel. Or it can be a metaphorical one as you initiate something which moves you out of that famous Taurean comfort zone. It begins with your thinking. And the willingness to embrace possibilities for yourself. Instead of getting stuck with worrying about what’s the worst that can happen, flip the dialogue and ask what’s the best?
Emotionally you belong with something soul expanding or more far-reaching, Taurus. Whether this is in business or in love. At home or overseas. Like all journeys you’ll never know unless you go there. Act without hesitation. The first step automatically shows you the next one on that path.
GEMINIEmbrace your strength, your determination, your inner resources and your ability to direct the cosmic power of change to bring about the results you want. Know you are more powerful and capable than you’ve previously given yourself credit for under this new Moon.
It appears in your house of transformation and rebirth. How you see yourself shifts. Giving birth to a brand new, stronger, more determined version of you. You have been forged in phoenix fire. And arise from those ashes glowing and unmissable. Don’t allow anyone try to put out that flame. Because when we fully embrace our own limitless potential, sadly it can act as a trigger for those who are not ready to do the same with theirs. That’s why the saying ‘Misery loves company’ exists.
We are all on our own journeys. Some are more ready to begin the work when the call comes than others. Do maintain your cool and a bigger perspective on this if you should encounter someone else’s fears or attempts to hold you back. It is time to let go of something under this new Moon. You relinquish this in order to lighten the load and make it easier for you to reach the top. What has clipped your wings in the past – lack of belief in yourself, thinking others are more capable or powerful than you, being fearful of the consequences, being willing to put up with what you know deep down no longer works, being afraid of the judgement of others – shed that. Don’t allow others to limit where you can go if you try. Time to soar.
CANCERThis is THE most important new Moon of the year when it comes to duets, double acts and dynamic duos of all kinds, Cancer. Do you have anything at 20 degrees of your sign? If so, then this is all about the glue that binds you to another. Or is about to.
Alone? Single as a Pringle? Do be very clear about the qualities you are seeking now. Don’t deviate from what you know to be the deal breakers. But you need to know what the deal makers are in order to attract the person who can offer them.
This is the kind of union which can be greater than the sum of the two parts. Either it already exists or is in the making now. You and another – ready to take on the world. This new Moon tells you that an important decision with you and another party is about to be made. Yes, perhaps around love. But it could equally involve you entering a fresh business, working or collaborative dynamic. Or that bestie or activity partner. Maybe its you making a hold-you-breath approach to someone several levels above you in terms of position, influence, power. And asking for a favour, entree, a job, application or request.
This Moon tells you that provided you are coming from a place of integrity or honest intention, you have your best possible chance of getting the answer you want. Love shouldn’t be taken lightly now. Either the love you have to give or the love you receive in return. Do ensure the other party is on the same wavelength. If they are – together you’re going places.
LEONo short cuts, Leo. And no half-hearted attempts either. Time to up your game with the new Moon in your work sector. To hone your craft and skills. Do the best possible job no matter how insignificant the task in front of you appears. And yes, to take care of the business of living. And treat this as a full time occupation.
If you have been treating your body as an amusement park over the holiday period, now is the time to deal with the reals when it comes to the support it needs. Those extra pounds, that sugar-rush diet, that binge-watching habit. Off the couch and hit the new year with better intentions. The secret of this new Moon is that if you initiate new habits under it – they are likely to stick. No more falling off the wagon.
Do look to your work now. You could be set to receive rewards and bring about the results you are aiming for. Especially with dedicated and applied focus. However, this Moon is likely to boost your awareness of the fact a job doesn’t actually suit your skillset. Or that you work somewhere where there is a lack of team spirit, the kind of leadership that inspires. Or that it simply doesn’t reward you in the way you hoped. If so, time to prepare to step off the treadmill, Leo. And not in a half-hearted way either.
Hone that CV until everything you can bring to the table is highlighted in an unmissable way. Find your unique selling point. Above all, lean in to applying for that position you may have thought out of reach. It may prove to be closer than you think.
VIRGOThe first new Moon of 2024 is your most sensual and creative. It kick-starts the Law of Attraction. And hands you what can only be described as inspired daring and determined playfulness. Yes, fun can be serious business. Especially when you are totally committed to having what you want. Or to embracing pleasure.
This new Moon blesses the earth signs in particular. Do you have Virgo factors at 20 degrees? Then it serves you an extra helping of romance, indulgence, attention, recognition and ability to draw what you want to you. With sprinkles. It’s all about new beginnings. And what you can conceive of having, experiencing, creating, giving, receiving – the business of serious pleasure. And how this plays a role in your own success journey.
Don’t dismiss any of this. It’s what adds meaning and zest. It fuels us rather than sees us content to wallow in indulgence. Without the good times, we would not be inspired to go out to do more. Have you been neglecting to factor in this crucial ingredient into your vision for what success looks like? If so, take time to include it. Yes, Capricorn which is your 5th house is associated with long haul plans and commitments.
But the high climbing goat always stops to admire the view. And getting as serious about what we want from love, parenting, our hobbies, creative ventures and what makes us stand out and shine, allows us to attract what takes us towards us.
Just understand there’s a huge difference to being in for the long haul and something which has turned into nothing but hard work. Go the extra mile – but not with the extra effort.
LIBRAClick the heels of those ruby trainers, Libra. You need footwear designed for the path not yet taken. The highest room in the tallest castle. The last homely house. The room at the top.
This is all about getting ‘up there’ – but on your terms, Libra. Not anyone else’s. This is your house of home, family, roots and security. And also if you are a regular visitor to your forecasts, you know it is about your path and purpose. The one you carve for yourself. Your place is the grand scheme of things. Your own definition of success, home and what underpins your life. Yes, something may work or be right for others. Even those closest to you. But it may not be your idea of what’s right for you in terms of what you do and where you live.
If you are a lucky Libran who is on the right path or showcased like a pearl by what encloses them, then this new Moon is all about enhancing that or solidifying it. The next step or reward roadside stop on that journey. For others, that path you’ve know all along you should explore, appears. Maybe you’ve been so focussed on one direction, place or outcome, you’ve been blinded to the alternative which may in fact, offer more promise. This new Moon widens your view.
Think of that mountain path. The higher you climb, the more perspective you gain. The wider the view becomes and you become aware of how limitless that horizon is. Compared to that earth-bound perspective. What appeared to be huge and insurmountable down on the ground, is cut down to size. Its a blip. Go for the mountain and ignore the molehill now, Libra. Look around you. Chart your own course. There are more ways to the top than you can possibly imagine. And more peaks than just one.
SCORPIOPotential swirls around you with the new Moon in your 3rd. But you have to harness it and commit to doing something with it. Think trade winds, Scorpio. The wind and the tide that ancient mariners waited for so they could sail their ships towards trade and commerce. Time and tide did not wait for them. So, they had to be ready for when it all turned in their favour. That’s you now, riding a wave of ideas, concepts, projects, new beginnings and yes, surfing online towards new horizons.
Catch the break with this moon. In earthy Capricorn and your 3rd your ideas are realistic and grounded. You’re prepared to do whatever it takes to see them through. And can expect results. There’s something about the ripple effect with this lunation. That you start something and it takes you further than you thought. That conversation opens doors. That application nets you that new position. That channel, social media post, podcast, your website gains momentum. All of which would not have occurred if you had not unfurled your sails in the first place.
Say it, send it, share it. Travel may feature for some of you. But right now all of you can sail the seas of confidence, optimism and expansion. Just know that you are going places. And what you hear, see, discover or are told, fills those sails. Whatever you do now, Scorpio, don’t just sit around talking that game. Now is the time to bring it and see how far it can take you. You may lose sight of the shore for a while. But the new one on the horizon holds so much more.
SAGITTARIUSWork that worth. Be visible. Invest in you. Three ka-ka-ka-ching rules to make the most of the new Moon in your money zone. Especially if you have been waiting for financial improvement to come door-knocking for a while.
This is the change for you that is long overdue. It represents a new emotional dynamic between you, what you have, what you earn, your talents and resources. If you have been contemplating starting that business or side-hustle, this is your moment to take that definitive step. This is a new moon of investment. Not of spending, even if you find yourself the recipient of a raise or better paying gig.
It asks you look at what you have attracted or accepted so far. And whether or not this is in alignment with your values. Or if you need to raise your rates. Not just in business. But also in your personal life. How you expect to be treated or rewarded is the key here. Do you feel short-changed in any way? If so, look to those expectations and begin to raise them. Act like you’re worth it and project an image of someone who values themselves. You don’t need to go overboard to do this. The more you show you value yourself, the more the world reflects this.
Don’t be willing to accept the minimum any longer. Be this in wages or in the love you receive. If what’s on offer doesn’t reflect your true worth, then go in search of what does. The results over the longer term will be priceless, Sag. Don’t pay the price of accepting anything less.
CAPRICORNNo matter what date your birthday falls on, the new Moon in your 1st is the start of your freshly baked astrological cycle. Become the centre of your own universe now. This new moon appears at the same time Jupiter is in your stand-out 5th of love, attraction and pleasure. This has not happened for 12 years. And you will have to wait another 12 for the next one! Enter into your year ahead with the mindset that anything is possible now. If you just take a chance and attempt it.
Opportunity can come knocking now as part of new beginnings for you. You need to follow your bliss and go where your heart wants to take you. Live your truth – not anyone else’s. Above all, you need to showcase a new facet of yourself. I am sure you have spent a great deal of time perfecting your present version of you. But is there room for an upgrade you You 2.0? Refine and perfect now. It doesn’t have to take the form of an extreme make-over. But just be something that tells the world there is something new and different about you.
Growth is what you are seeking. Expansion and delight. You do need to be the catalyst for this. Instigate and initiate something. Because this new moon is yours, you have to be the one to set its energy in motion. Don’t wait for life to just ‘happen’. Or what you want to magically ‘come along’. It doesn’t work that way. Go after what you want. That new job, that love, that opportunity. You make it happen, Cappy. And the path ahead of you? Magically smooth if you dare to take it.
AQUARIUSYour new cycle is waiting in the wings for you, Aquarius. Before you embrace it, there’s work to be done. This may ask you to spend some time alone in contemplation. Looking at what you want to take with you into your most soul-defining period this lifetime. And what needs now to be released.
This especially applies on a spiritual and emotional level with the new Moon in your 12th. You are about to re-frame the past. Or see something in the present as driven by it. Your tools for discovery are meditation, the Tarot, journaling, visualisation, therapy, psychic work, mediumship and time alone especially in nature. Someone may appear who acts as a healer, mentor or guide to the process for you.
No matter what form this takes, do be prepared to take a step back and unplug yourself from the constant white noise of everyday existence. And bathe in tranquillity and alone time. If only for an evening. This allows you to tune out what is interfering with your impartial and truth-telling, inner guide broadcasting loud and clear.
Chances are deep down, you already know what needs to be done. Or the area which requires deeper healing or investigation. Look to patterns that have recurred in your life. And gather your courage to go to the source. Where it all began. It may seen scary but honestly, once confronted it will no longer hold any power over you. You step free lighter and whole.
Others may find themselves working behind the scenes. Either remotely or on something where they may not be immediately acknowledged for their contribution. Don’t worry, Aquarius. Your efforts will pay off. You’ll be moving back into the spotlight again soon enough.
PISCESIt’s all about the support system you have under this new Moon, Pisces. It’s telling you to get social in more ways than one. That group, cheer squad, network, club, association, gathering. Be they friends, followers or co-workers. People power matters.
This new moon sets the tone of your social scene for some time to come. So, if that circle has shrunk due to outer circumstances beyond your control, now is the time to make new connections. Do understand that friendships are governed by the same rules as other relationships. Despite these being ruled by two different areas in our chart. So, we can find ourselves in a position where we have to let some friendships go just as we may outgrow that lover or significant other.
If you have experienced friendship attrition, this is no reflection on you as a friend. It happens to all of us. Young, old, famous, rich or less so. When it does, we need to let go of the connection with gratitude – no matter how it ended. And then take steps to fill the vacuum. This may require effort and trying people or groups out for size. Don’t be afraid to experiment.
You don’t need an excuse or special occasion to get together. This new moon wants you to celebrate friendship in whatever way works for you and the other(s). So call or message that person you’ve not seen for a while. Suggest a coffee, glass of wine, walk, shopping trip or experience you know you’ll both enjoy. It’s not so much what you do as sharing it together. Just as its not what you know – but who, that fuels your future under this new Moon.

Weekly Astrology January 8th 2024 Forecast for All Signs

ARIESStep up to a different destiny
Bold, outside the box moves fuel success
Be ready to bring it, Aries!
Big up those ambitions no matter what they are, Aries. This week is set to take you further. I’d describe it as a stairway to heaven in terms of your career, studies, public image, status and ability to impress people in high places. With the new Moon in your 10th (11th) illuminating those rungs all the way to the top.
The planets including the Sun in your 10th and also Mercury from the 14th are boosted by ruler Mars’s boss level confidence when it comes to you making all the right moves as ‘24 really gains traction. This is the highest point in your chart – where you are ‘on show’ and bringing your best game.
The new Moon with its trine to Uranus asks for an original approach. While the trine between your ruler and Jupiter in your money zone (12th), tells you that not only is up the only way for you now, you could be looking at tangible rewards stemming from bold moves coupled with fierce determination. The only way is up for you this week. Seize the day, the desire and your destiny!
Even if you don’t work, your personal stock or your partner’s, is on the rise. As could be your title or status – as in going from single to settled or watching that title on your business card magically rearrange itself to something more impressive. It’s time to become very aware of how people in positions of influence and authority see you. There’s a saying you never get a second chance to make a first impression. Not true for you now as you may get more than one. Just ensure it is the lasting one you want to leave however. Time to step up – and let the world know you’ve ready for business – 2024 style.
In a nutshell: This week’s new Moon in your 10th illuminates a stairway to heaven when it comes to success and those ambitions, Aries. Leave underestimating yourself back where it belongs – in 2023. And be ready to ascend.

TAURUSBe honest about what no longer works
Strike out towards something fresh
Set the new in motion
No more spinning that worn out track or rinse-and-repeat cycle that has had you feeling so stuck, Taurus. A new and better pathway is revealed for you this week. Planets in your 9th open portals of opportunity and escape routes designed with you in mind as they align to Uranus and Jupiter in your sign.
Do be honest about what still isn’t working for you this week. No matter how hard you try to reimagine or reinvent that wheel. The fact is, it’s on a cart that stopped taking you where you need to be a long time ago. But now, forget the cart as a better, faster, more reliable means of getting where you need to be appears and asks you to hop on board. This week’s good news as we really begin to embrace that 2024 jam is that your escape route beckons. Take that cosmic Uber as it pulls up.
Your horizons broaden and after what has been a period of struggle or simply plain inertia, solutions propel you up, up and away and back into effortless potential once more with the combo of the new Moon and especially the Mars/Jupiter alignment on the 12th. Remember, the planets are in Jupiter’s ruling house in your chart. Your money/career and even relationship status could benefit from this and again, move you in a new direction.
That doesn’t mean you can sit back and wait for opportunity to come find you however. Travel or at least learning exploration will feature – but you have to kick start this. Watch for new from the 14th or a discovery around that next step. Perhaps even by signing up or clicking on that link. But take that first small step into a bigger world and Jupiter will provide the rest of the momentum and also place unlooked for solutions on your path. Who makes it happen? You do the moment you decide to explore what that new direction could potentially hold.
In a nutshell: The new Moon in your 9th activates a desire to explore fresh avenues or kick-start a journey you abandoned, Taurus. Let’s face it – you’ve had enough of staying stuck. Ditch the wheel-spinning and put 2024 into high gear.

GEMINIYou’re right on the money
Play with power
Bring sexy back!
What’s on that Spotify playlist – or should be, as 2024 begins, Gemini? How about Abba’s Money Money Money or simply Billionaire? Your money, assets, mortgage, legacies, benefits, loans, shares and what is shared with you and by you is in focus like no other time. The keys to the vault? Quite possibly you could be handed them or else the key to that executive washroom thanks to the new Moon and rush of planets in your dynamic 8th of change and transformation.
Ruler Mercury arrives in here from the 14th. But the new Moon’s alignment with Uranus in your 12th points to rewards or this stemming in some way from your past. Mars is the co-ruler of your 8th so at its most powerful. The day after the new Moon it aligns to Jupiter and the door to the vault or what is stored there for you karmically, magically offers you a way to transform a key area.
How comfortable are you with your own power? The sub-theme here is also: Power Money. Handling larger sums of it, being granted access to it as well as bigging up that feeling of self-worth. You may be placed in charge of someone else’s resources or assets or someone gives you access to theirs. It may not be actual cash but time, entrée, expertise – but its every bit as valuable. If not more so.
You are not just hot in terms of being able to attract the assets or resources you need. But on fire when it comes to your intimate life. And this too is an asset, Gemini. Use whatever you have or are handed and shake your money maker regarding your talents. Bank on the results. More in your New Moon in Capricorn Moonscope.
In a nutshell: Something unexpectedly could return from your past. Or the novel or unexpected is a seriously bankable prospect, Gemini. It’s a chance to be that change you’ve been hoping would arrive. Get sexy.

CANCEREmbrace something different
Love defies description
Get ready for a peak experience
Like a feel-good 80’s track, love makes your world go round this week, Cancer. You are in your yearly partnership and passion peak. Book-marked by this week’s new Moon in your 7th (11th).
Single? Put your landing lights on as at least one serious potential contender for your heart should appear as the Moon aligns to Uranus in its ruling 11th. Be seen – on line and off now as this tells you love can be found in unexpected places. Or could wear an unexpected face. Are you willing to try something new? The start of 2024 tells you that clinging to ideas around your ‘type’ is so ‘23. As is saying something is not your jam if you have never tried it.
If you catch yourself doing either – or both, look back and ask yourself how that worked out for you?
And be open about what form the next double act you enter into could take. Dynamic duos of all descriptions are not limited to the love and marriage variety. That special working partnership, your bestie, collaborator or partner-in-crime – a key union will open up your horizons and bring new experiences your way. Foreign affairs may feature. A lover from a place or galaxy far, far away. A business opportunity overseas. Settlers could embark on a new journey together. But if it’s broken consciously, uncoupling will be easier now than at any other time. The start of 2024 should assure you – you won’t explore it alone, Cancer.
In a nutshell: This week’s new Moon in your 7th brings together all the partnership potential that’s swirling around you. But how will this manifest? Don’t get stuck on one particular kind of relationship. Cancer. Or how it’s supposed to look for that matter!

LEOWork that devotion daily
Smarter options set your free
Get ready for a more profound love experience
Work that ‘24 energy, Leo. The joy is in the details and the devotional tasks you perform daily, towards yourself and to others. It’s got that Mary J Blige vibe to it and realising what you’ve got going for you every day and not sweating the small stuff (it’s ALL small stuff!), is your main task.
Your day job (whether paid or unpaid), your studies if you are engaged in them, your well-being, your habits, routine, and taking care of the everyday business of being, you are set to change from the point of the new Moon in your 6th on the 11th. Its energy along with Uranus in your 10th breaks you free from that rut.
If you are seeking work or a better position or simply to design a more satisfying and dynamic work/life balance, expect a shift. Working better, more freedom around your job, more energy, and even, yes, rewards – Mars hands you the fuel to make changes while Jupiter in your 10th hands you solutions and opportunities to make them real.
If you have been dealing with long-term issues around your well-being, you may discover alternatives or get access to the treatment and resources you need. There’s a touch of everyday, practical magic in the air. The more grounded and present you are with it, the better it works for you. Don’t be tempted to tune out, procrastinate or resort to escapism to avoid getting to grips with what you know needs to be done. Tackle those daily chores and responsibilities while being open to making them easier by working what you have better, smarter and with rediscovered joy. If it works, work it. If it doesn’t – you’ll find the way that allows to you be the beautiful soul you are becoming, Leo.
In a nutshell: There’s a touch of magic around work and wellbeing in the air with this week’s new Moon. Your body should be your barometer when gauging what works – and what doesn’t. You’re living and working smarter.

VIRGOConceive something new
Ready to be noticed?
Aim for love!
Babies, children, your adult children, pregnancies, creative passion, and yes, lovers or someone who could conceivably turn you into a parent, step-parent, or bring children into your life in some way are your life headlines this week, Virgo.
Ruler Mercury joins the Sun, Mars and the Moon (new Moon 11th), in your fabulizing 5th this week. Something big is being conceived. A creation, a concept, a love affair, a time to shine, the start of a pleasure trip thanks to the planets in here aligning to Uranus and also Jupiter in its ruling 9th in your chart.
Cupid’s arrows are everywhere this week. Crazy darts flying in all directions. Hitting anything from hearts to opportunities. If you’ve felt you’ve been off the radar regarding romance, potential lovers pop up out of nowhere. Above all, showcase yourself. Celebrate and emphasise what makes you stand out from the crowd – on line and in the real world. What you love to do and are good at – prepare for opportunities and discoveries now. The Mars/Jupiter alignment on the 12th ensures you are about to get noticed.
Lucky breaks in the arts, work, creativity, your passion or simply entrée to glamourous, red carpet circles or rubbing shoulders with VIP’s can be other ways you find yourself in the spotlight. Or the center of attention. This isn’t a week to hide yourself away. Be Insta-ready on more than one level, Virgo. The universe could just single you out for that close-up.
In a nutshell: This week’s new Moon casts you in a fresh role when it comes to love, what you love to do, an opportunity to get yourself noticed or even around babies, children and young people. Be ready to stand out!

LIBRAChanging rooms and location, location, location!
Future proof that path
Get really living
Bring it on home this week, Libra baby! The new Moon (11th) is in its ruling house in your chart. Home matters. As does nurturing you – heart and soul. Some of you may be contemplating a move, and in this, you are helped by the Sun in here as well as Mars propelling you out of that dusty safety zone. Mercury rules contracts so again, its arrival in here from the 14th enhances any negotiations as well as buying, selling, renting, leasing property and the move itself.
The planets here link to Uranus and Jupiter in your 8th offering anything from changing rooms to locations. Or even a change around how you earn or make your money. Or what adds that all-important pinch of emotional security to your relationships? If you are searching for the resources to make a move happen, this can remove the barriers to accessing this.
Some of you may benefit from the help of a family member, a pay rise, or a new source of income, that mortgage or loan. Uranus in the mix does ask that you come up with the grand design that meets your needs, however. And those of the people you care about. And to be adaptable and open to the fact that one person’s ideal way of living can add up to another’s hell of soul-stunting prison. This week allows you to get highly creative. Making money from home is favoured. That side hustle, Airbnb listing or taking a lodger.
It’s about changes that work to create a lifestyle not simply living. If you’ve outgrown that present home, been thinking of a relocation or had a property issue in need to resolution – be it your own or with your landlord, this week brings the shift you’ve been seeking. Escape to your kind of country? All possible, Libra. Welcome home to ‘24.
In a nutshell: There’s a grand design behind those decisions this week, Libra. Look to where you want to be and what you want to be doing for your future. Path and place intertwine with this week’s new Moon in your 4th. Welcome home.

SCORPIOGot something to shout about? Share it.
Start that conversation
Get behind your thinking!
Mine those online opportunities and big up that social media presence in any way you can, Scorpio. Conversations revolve around love and partnerships – past, present, and tantalizingly potential.
Writing, studying, speaking, sharing, designing, applying, teaching, dating profile, TikTok to Substack, and beyond – here lies your playground and your future potential with someone from the time of the new moon in your 3rd.
Need a new job, confidence to launch that idea, device or even car? Your 3rd is a full house thanks to not just the Sun but Mars and from the 14th Mercury – which rules this sector of your chart. This is all about just how far an idea or conversation may take you. Short journeys may feature now. Or you discover something new right outside your front door, in your neighbourhood. There are undiscovered opportunities to be mined within what is familiar. All you need to do to spot them is change your focus.
If any of you have been thinking about upskilling or returning to study – this week could see you committing to taking that step. The feeling that you either have everything you need to get what you want or where you need to go, extends to your personal life as the planets trine with Uranus and Jupiter in your 7th. The 12th sets two hearts on fire and possibly united in passion or the desire to travel towards something together. Love this week could be a swipe away. Or right outside your front door.
In a nutshell: Got something to say, share or an idea? This week is no time to keep it to yourself, Scorpio. Start that conversation, take action, launch and apply. The new Moon in your 3rd marks the point where news arrives or something you start takes flight.

SAGITTARIUSUpgrade your worth
Invest in a vision
Find your rich
The new Moon in your 2nd (11th) just wants to hand you that rich feeling, Sag. And asks, along with Uranus in your 6th, how you invest in yourself and your future. You are being asked to bring a vision into being and also pursue it. And not just more of the folding stuff.
It’s very important to understand that rich is a state of mind, and that feeling can be got from other things than simply the cash you have in your bank account. Right up until May, ruler Jupiter should present you with an opportunity to earn or increase that income in a new way. But you of all signs also know – Jupiter is all about the experience. And that the journey is every bit as valuable as the destination.
So, when that extra money does arrive, use it to buy yourself that new view on the world as opposed to just more ‘stuff’. Especially if it will add to your soul enrichment or how you craft that future, this week could herald the arrival of someone who acts as a role model for this. And who embodies that ‘rich’ feeling. Daring. Confident, Go-getting. Yes, they could be doing very nicely for themselves in that material sense. But it’s the way they love their life, what they do and their attitude to what they have, which truly shows you just what living a rich life is all about.
Do watch for them or for chance to go in a direction like this on the 12th when Mars also in your 2nd aligns to ruler Jupiter. They could easily be an employer or someone who has successfully harnessed that entrepreneurial spirit that is so on-vibe with your own freedom-seeking soul. Time to define just what rich means for you, Sag. And go your own way to live it.
In a nutshell: Rich is a feeling and an emotional truth for you, Sag. It’s all down to that precious freedom and ability to buy experiences. Yes, the new Moon in your 2nd highlights finances. And also simply more than money can buy you!

CAPRICORNRock that transformation
Work your look
Welcome to your relaunch!
Let’s talk about your look, appearance, style, brand, and how others see and perceive you, how you come across to others. Your ‘message’. Verbal and non-verbal. What do you want to say that’s new, different and sets the bar for 2024?
No matter what day your birthday falls on – the new Moon in your sign is always the start of your new astrological cycle. It tells you not to be your old self especially as this one is aligned with Uranus – the planet of individuality and your future, in your 5th of glowing charisma, attraction, and glorious and unapologetic self-promotion.
Yes, a certain amount of self-preoccupation this week is not only permitted – but expected, Cappy. If you have been hyper-focused these past few years on the inner you due to Pluto in your sign, consider whether the outer you actually reflect who you are inside now. If adjustments and big ones need to be made, its the time to make them. Mars in your sign gives you the confidence to go for it. And also not care what others may think. You’ve a daring, sassy Take Me As I Am attitude that, paradoxically, has the effect of seeing you effortlessly shed who and what you have outgrown or no longer need and attract in the people and opportunities that seem designed with this new you in mind.
This week could start with a dramatic weight loss, repackaging, cosmetic enhancements, total social media brand evolution, or simply a complete image overhaul and relaunch. Especially once Mercury arrives on the 14th, don’t be surprised if you are drawn to a look you would never have considered in the past. Not only will you love it, but others will, too. You are your own best calling card now. Dress to impress. But do it your way.
In a nutshell: The new Moon in your sign marks the beginning of your new astrological cycle. Do not be your old self. Look to your image to convey the deep changes which have gone on within you. The outer has to reflect the new you.

AQUARIUSWork some deep vault magic
The future begins with the past
Prepare for transformation
You begin the New Year in sensitive, touchy-feely, down-low mode. Whatever is going on behind the scenes or deep within you – you’re simply not ready to talk about it – yet, Aquarius.
Yes, this involves your future as the new Moon in your 12th trines ruler Uranus in your 4th. And you may have to revisit or reframe the past in order to free yourself to explore this. Which also may be where the desire to withdraw and keep things to yourself (for now), comes in.
You may be dealing with old wounds that need to be released. And the age-old paradox of whether you talk about what’s hurt you and, in doing so, open up a can of worms with someone else as a result. Sometimes we say nothing out of not wanting to hurt someone’s feelings. But in doing so, we diminish and deny our own.
Of course, we may decide to resolve this on an inner level simply and if so, words may not be needed. Others may be nurturing a dream and know like the shoots of tender leaves, these are best kept in the dark until they gain strength. This can be anything from that secret ambition to that secret love. What is in focus is your inner truth and your secret self.
You are nowadays away from Pluto’s arrival in your sign. Ahead of this you have an angel on your shoulder – whispering answers to anything you need to know. The soul X-Files are yours to access. You may do this via therapy, the Tarot, astrology, spiritual exploration, self-help books, meditation, creativity, healing or any combination of the above. Expect answers to those big questions you’ve asked to be delivered unexpectedly. Watch the 12th for this. And when they come they bring solutions and freedom. The truth – out there and accessible now, Aquarius. Just embrace it even if it’s not what you expected. It will set you free.
In a nutshell: You may not yet be ready to share your plans this week – and that’s fine, Aquarius. You’re days away now from the transformational cycle of a lifetime. For now go deep and revisit your past. It’s where your future begins.

PISCESClick and connect
Soul contacts emerge
It’s not what – it’s who
It’s very much about who you know as opposed to what this week, Pisces. No matter where you are or whatever your circumstances are, circulate, nurture those existing connections, and actively seek out new ones – any way you can.
The new Moon in your 11th trines Uranus in your 3rd from Uranus’ ruling house in your chart. Setting your future in motion via who you meet and know. New and influential friendships open doors to new levels of experience and opportunity for you. Don’t go into hermit mode no matter what you do. Despite any restrictions, friends in high places or simply generous ones with no agenda will enter your life and possibly spin it out in a fresh direction.
Cocooning on the couch with that box set? So no. Or if you opt for that, at least invite others to a watch party remotely. Those with whom you share intense soul contracts and past life connections could be due to make an appearance once Pluto enters your 12th.
That group, cause, party or larger-than-life social scene beckons. Others could access this via work, study or business opportunities thanks to the alignment between Mars and Jupiter in your 3rd on the 12th. Just be aware with Mars in your 11th that any social connections past their Use By date will be shed now. Don’t try to hold on if this occurs. The call is to push out freshly baked minds and to simply be ready to RSVP yes to any and all invitations that come your way. People co-create our future. Just as we perform the same service for them. Join in, Pisces.
In a nutshell: Friends and connections are the co-creators of your future. This isn’t a week to be a shut-in. Join in, connect, and circulate in any way you can, Pisces. Those who you share soul connections are set to appear.

Your Full Moon in Cancer Moonscope December 26th 2023
The full Moon in Cancer is home for the holidays in its ruling sign. It appears at 4o 58’ of Cancer and makes a superb alignment to Jupiter in gorgeous, sensual Taurus. What does this tell us all? Wherever you are is home on this day. Enjoy the delights of wherever you find yourself. And with this final full Moon of 2023, stop thinking just for this day that the grass is greener elsewhere.
Of course, if you are thinking: Is this as green as it gets? The answer for some of you may be no. But this Moon tells you this is not the day to yearn for it. Instead take pleasure from the nurturing, safe and sensual space you find yourself in. Enhance it in whatever way you can. And above all, appreciate this and your people who share this with you. It’s the gratitude factor which waters that grass. Where you are and in pastures new for ‘24.
This Moon is one where intuition and ‘gut’ feelings rule. Feed these with inspiration and also anything which follows up on those feels. Too much logic won’t work under this full Moon. Homecoming truths follow. And if a new direction or place is needed – you’ll know that too. Go for real grass however – not astro turf!
This Moon also asks we let down our defences and become unafraid to show our vulnerable sides. This is in contrast to the Sun in Capricorn – the sign that’s adept at keeping up that boss front! In our vulnerabilities lie our strength.
This full Moon is known as the Cold Moon, Winter Maker Moon and Snow Moon. If you are a Cardinal sign – Aries, Cancer, Libra, Capricorn – do check your chart for factors at 4-5 degrees. If you have them love where you are but also begin to formulate a plan for ‘24. This full Moon is best for Cancer and Capricorn, Taurus, Scorpio and Pisces. Again, especially if you have the key degrees.
ARIES
Surround yourself with comfort. Nurture yourself and loved ones. Love your environment and who you’re with. Or yes, if it’s not ideal, find something to love about it, Aries. Even as you look towards your options for ‘24.
Above all, look at where you may unconsciously erect defences where perhaps none are needed. Those deep rooted triggers that always set you off. Perhaps its something a family member always does. Maybe without thinking. And you either feel you need to withdraw or come out guns blazing! Is it time to simply explain how this makes you feel without trying to blame? Could it even be they are unaware of the effect it has on you? This Moon asks you at the very least examine all possible explanations. And let go of the need to react long enough to talk about it. This Moon favours airing those feels.
This full Moon’s angle to Jupiter highlights your needs. Not just emotionally but materially too. Asking what you need is part of your process under it. But also how much you need to feel secure, loved, emotionally safe? Do determine what this is. Even as you snuggle or allow yourself to feel safely vulnerable, you are allowed to allow your imagination to fast forward and visualise how you can improve this picture this time next year. It’s also a fabulous time not only to feed your soul with future dreams but to nourish those you love. Unleash that domestic deity.
TAURUS
A delicious meal. An indulgent pamper. Even a long, slow bedroom session. If any sign is getting the most earthly emotional delights from this full Moon it’s you, Taurus. The Moon’s angle to Jupiter just enhances you usual appreciation of the final things in life. And also increases your desire to share them with those you care about.
If there’s a post-holiday, pre-New Year’s soiree planned – yours is the one everyone will want to attend. You’re the host with the most. Offering the best company and the most delicious fare. This Moon is also fabulous if you’re done with the season of over-indulge and your creativity now asks for release and self-expression. Explore emotional expression via art, decorating and interior design, sewing, content creation and all manner of beautiful musings. Give them form and voice, Taurus. And as you do, ask yourself if they contain the seeds of something bigger for your future? Again, it’s all about the indulgence. This time your imagination.
Full Moons are always full stops. We pause before we head in a fresh direction. So, yes, for you this truly is about appreciating where you are and also who and what you have in your life. Don’t come from lack whatever you do. Yes, you can look at money and financial goals for the coming year. Come from a place of cashed-up satisfaction if you can. Focus on what you’ve done with what you’ve got. Congratulate yourself. The vital essence of this full Moon is all in focusing on what we already have. Not what we don’t. Then go in the direction of seeking more.
GEMINI
Look back over ‘23 and be honest about any areas where you feel you may be on a treadmill, Gemini. Running as fast as you can just to remain in the same spot. Are you doing too much with too little reward? Spreading yourself too thin? Trying to meet everyone’s needs at the expense of your own? Or keeping up appearances by spending too much? Especially more than you can realistically afford?
This full Moon may see you uncharacteristically quiet and contemplative if you have put your hand up to any of the above and admitted: Guilty as charged. Hey, the cosmos isn’t here to judge you. If there is something to be confronted that is in fact, making too big a withdrawal on your lifeforce and vibrancy, it is merely being highlighted by this Moon so you can see it for what it is. And tackle it.
Soul honesty – with yourself to start with, is your way forward. To more satisfaction and abundance for the coming year. And yes, it may also see you being honest with others. But only if you feel safe doing so, Gemini. This full Moon often resets our values. It’s also offering you enhanced clarity around what’s worth your time and effort. And also the value you place on these. Because of its angle to Jupiter in your 12th, this is preparing you for the arrival of Jupiter in your sign in May. Jupiter wants you to refine your priorities. So you channel its optimism and opportunity creation into what really matters. Release and realign now, for big results later.
CANCER
What did you achieve which you set out to do these past 12 months, Cancer? It honestly is time to celebrate those victories under the full Moon in your sign. It shines on your accomplishments and illuminates your elegant and quiet strengths. It shows you that success needs that all-important emotional component to matter. And its also not confined to just money making or a job title either. It’s simply about saying ‘I can do that’ in a given area. And then doing what it takes to make it happen.
When we reach a goal or milestone, its vitally important we stop and celebrate it. Before going on to the next. Revel in the ‘I did that!’ moment. No matter how big or small. So, as this full Moon waxes and aligns to Jupiter in your wish fulfilment sector, ensure you pay tribute to your achievements if you’ve been too busy up until now to do so. Good job, Cancer!
Jupiter remains in the house of your chart until May ‘24. Until then you can continue to benefit from Jupiter’s Fairy Godplanet influence. It wants to continue to assist you in manifesting any remaining wishes on that list. For now, enjoy that feeling of attainment and enjoyment. Then – set your next goal to crush. That ‘23 track record should show you it’s within reach.
LEO
This isn’t a Moon which wants you to commit to where you want to go or what you want to do in ‘24. Not yet anyway, Leo. You may be spending some inner time asking yourself what it is you really want. Or if you know what that is, you may not be sure as to how you should go about getting it.
The Moon in your 12th asks you separate fact from fantasy. If you believe there are obstacles in your way, it asks you to look closely at whether they are real. Or simply your own imagination. And while your creativity and imagination is heightened by this Moon, don’t let the latter run away with you. It can have you projecting onto others things they simply aren’t thinking or feeling. Or what they really feel may surprise you. The only way to know for sure is to ask, Leo. So, don’t dwell with your thoughts in silence. And do ensure they aren’t misinterpreting where you’ve coming from in turn!
This Moon asks what you need to bring out into the open rather than keeping shut inside. If you have Leo factors at 4-5 degrees this may be a very personal issue. One that makes you feel open to judgement if you were to talk about it. If so, this is what you need to be airing! De-mystify the whole thing and cut it down to size by confiding in someone. As for that path you need to take – your intuition or subconscious is telling you what’s right and what isn’t. Follow it and you’ll be surprised just how easy the right direction is to take.
VIRGO
Unlike other signs which simply want to retreat into their blanket forts until this full Moon, you’re more comfortable socialising or seeking out stimulation and variety, Virgo. If the holidays have seen you wrapped up in family time, no matter how much you may have enjoyed that, you’re now craving that social scene again.
Organise a get together with friends or arrange to meet up. Yes, you may be choosy about the company you keep. You need to be surrounded by others on the same wavelength. And it may not be about the quantity. It’s the quality of the company that counts. Whether its that party or just kicking back with a friend over pizza and a catch-up, what matters to you is the quality of the interaction.
Because of this Moon’s angle to Jupiter in your 9th, faraway friends and places, distant connections and people overseas may feature. As could multicultural gatherings. If offered an invitation to the latter, do accept. An ethnic restaurant could be just the place for that catch-up. If you’ve been too busy with family, work or other matters leading up to this full Moon, it is now the time to show those besties some love.
Anyone new you have met over the holiday period or under this full Moon could turn out to have a big role to play in your life in ‘24. Also, do you have a major vision for yourself for the new year? Now is the time to activate it. It’s a full Moon under which to be yourself and enjoy the support of like-minded people. Don’t stay out in the cold, Virgo.
LIBRA
The full Moon in your 10th illuminates your ambitions, Libra. It also rewards you emotionally in any area where you have simply gone the distance. If it’s worth having, there probably isn’t a short cut to getting it. But if you didn’t need to make the effort, then it wouldn’t matter so much.
This is the full Moon of success and attainment. It highlights your strengths but also shows you if anything you’re doing doesn’t work. Or bring you the results you hoped for. Under this full Moon watch for critics and cold, cold hearts that never warm up. Being made to feel you are never quite good enough. They are not going to change. You can change how you react to them however. Or whether you wish to interact with them at all.
Now is the time to get behind your ideas for ‘24. And once this full Moon has passed, be ready to take a bold and decisive step towards making something real for yourself. Your are hard-wired to succeed. You are already a success whether you realise this or not. Don’t allow others’ ideas of what this should be define your path. Be ready to go for it in the next few weeks. That job, that promotion, that plan, that better, more reliable and lasting, form of love. You’ll get there. One step at a time.
SCORPIO
You and the other water signs along with opposite number Taurus, benefit most from this full Moon. Do check your chart for the 4-5 degree factors. This is a lucky Moon for you whether you have these factors or not. Baby, you’ve got so much to give under it thanks to its angle to Jupiter in your 7th.
Is it time to plan your next big adventure, Scorpio? Or are you about to embark upon one? That compass needle spins and points in a fresh direction. You’ve an appetite for something soul-starting and bigger. Answer that restless quest within you. Whether its simply to get your body moving or your mind with answers to the big questions such as ‘Why are we here?’ or ‘What’s the meaning?’. This intuitive and questing full Moon points you in the right direction.
Look to where you may be unconsciously limiting your own emotional experience. Also, do you start something but then lose interest and not finish it? This Moon may highlight something that still holds so much potential for you. All you have to do is answer its call again. But this time commit to seeing it through. While this full Moon asks every sign to make a gesture of gratitude for where they find themselves on this day; and to find satisfaction in what they have, its okay for you to look out beyond that. And aim for something more. Sometimes we have to venture out past the familiar and go look for our lives. This could be your first step in a 1,000 mile journey.
SAGITTARIUS
The best full Moon of the year to listen to those ‘gut’ instincts, Sag. Your inner knowing highlights red flags and green lights with impeccable accuracy. So, don’t ignore these. Or tell yourself it’s your imagination.
The Moon probes the shadows. Seeking out hidden truths. Highlighting where you need to keep digging. This is one of the best full Moons of the year under which to get or give yourself a reading around what’s coming up for the new year. Especially if you approach the reading with a questing mindset around what you may need to change or do differently.
This Moon is in your ‘other’ money house. Is it time for a post-holiday/pre new year accounting? Do you feel the state of your finances is some kind of emotional statement about you? It’s funny how simply going through those bank statements or coming up with a new spending/savings plan can take any judgemental sting out of money issues. It’s just a number. And you can work with that thanks to the Moon’s angle to ruler Jupiter in your pragmatic 6th. If you feel you need help in this area, this is also one of the best days to go look for that advisor or accountant.
Chances are a quick audit reveals you have so much more to work with than you may have realised, Sag. And the ability to earn or create more too. Underused resources get repurposed. Is someone getting you down, however? This may be more than just the end of the holiday/birthday season blues. Has this been going on for a while? Look at the history. It asks if you want to continue the emotional expense of this. Or if, all things considered, you’ll be better off investing elsewhere.
CAPRICORN
Love is what matters to you most under this Moon. In all its forms, Cappy. Not just the romantic partnership and marriage kind. You crave closeness and want to wrap those bonds tighter around you and those you care for. Or even the home or place you love. Embracing togetherness and comfort. This Moon is about love and not so much about sex (that’s your 5th and 8th). So, you’re more up for a tender snuggle rather than a 50 Shades session. Of course, if that’s what that boo wants, you’ll bring it. Because the fact is, under this full Moon you simply want to give, give, give.
Although you are at your most loving and open, do be aware that not everyone is going to be affected in the same, sweet way. Don’t be afraid to enforce strong boundaries with passive aggressive people, manipulators or anyone who is simply taking advantage of you or just plain toxic. Sadly, sometimes this Moon brings out the worst in people.
If you’re missing the romantic kind of love and that’s what you yearn for, it’s okay to acknowledge there’s a position vacant in your heart that needs to be filled. But don’t whatever you do send yourself out into cuffing season if its really not your thing. Love yourself enough to avoid the apps. Yes, you want to be part of a balancing act and need that counter-weight in your life, Cappy. If not with a partner then with family member, that ride-or-die, bestie, co-conspirator or collaborator. So don’t allow what’s missing to stop you from seeing love actually is, all around you.
AQUARIUS
Your compassion is heightened under this full Moon. If you know of someone struggling on any level, you are so there for them. With anything from a shoulder to cry on to helping with the chores. You’re the friend indeed and the resource to be relied upon. A deep well of non-judgemental listening and practical advice (you’ll only volunteer the latter if specifically asked).
You’re also an open book when it comes to sharing your own struggles. And also providing inspiration with how you’ve overcome them. You’re showing up as the hero in your own story. As well as for anyone who needs you. The way you show how much you care is by simply doing what needs to be done. And others love you for that.
This full Moon also has you looking at any loose ends. That unfinished project. That untidy desk. That cupboard half cleared out. You won’t want to leave anything hanging ahead of 2024. This is the Moon under which you’ll tackle those tough, outstanding chores and sweep away the cobwebs. Also, if you have resolutions you intend to implement, don’t wait for that calender change. Now is the time to initiate them and get a head start. Your focus and your determination are at a peak. As well as showing up for others, you’re there for yourself too. Anything you start – you’re set to finish.
PISCES
Water signs benefit the most from the full Moon in Cancer. Plus this one angles to ancient ruler Jupiter dwelling in your house of ideas. The Moon itself is in your 5th. The house of glitter, glam and What’s the Story, Morning Glory?
How does your heart want you to express yourself? Also, what does it want? Lean into the new year with this. Take that big idea Jupiter has been cooking up for you and do something with it. Be a heart-starter. And in doing so, you’ll stand out as a beacon for others to follow your example. This is a wonderful full Moon for sharing your journey on social media. Keep it real and keep it authentic.
Someone or something is pulled towards you under this Moon. A lover. A child. An opportunity to go party, have fun or showcase your jewel box of talents. Look to what you have drawn towards you as the power of attraction is activated. The more joy and pleasure you take with what is on offer or around you on this day, the more the potential to attract increases. Your 5th is your house of childlike wonder. Spending time with children hands you back your capacity for play and awe. Or just allow your own inner child free rein. Do what your heart wants. Or go where it wants to take you, Pisces. Wherever you find yourself, that’s where the love is.

ARIESThe final week of 2023 brings us a trine of higher love between Venus and Neptune – a pairing of true Christmas stars. Use this Peace of Earth vibe for inner peace – and to love who you’re with and where you are. Your 2024 forecast for your sign will be ready on New Year’s Day.
The home and heart warming full Moon in Cancer and you’re 4th may simply feel like the icing on the Christmas Cake this week. The final days of 2023 unwind slowly thanks to Mercury retrograde in Sagittarius and your 9th. Do watch however as ‘slow’ can turn into ‘snafu’ if travelling. Pay particular attention if you’re going places on the 27th – 28th – either to the slopes or returning home as travel may get slippery due to the crash between Mercury and your ruler Mars and a disagreement with Neptune. If you can, stay where you are with the eggnog which may prove to be a better plan.
The skies are full of peace on earth vibes and festive cheer if we care to focus on them with the wondrous Venus/Neptune trine on the 25th – a true pairing of Christmas stars. Retrogrades simply tell us to focus on the here and now. Patience or simply being content in the moment, may not be your forte, but it is your friend now with planning the year ahead – or the route home. And your key to unlocking long term success.
Love or what you love is going to be your ticket to freedom now and places you on a path that could see your horizons expand via your ideas in 2024. If you can combine passion with the necessary steps to achieve the rewards you’re after, you could be pretty well unstoppable. Romance could be just what you wished on that star for someone who exudes a Devil-may-care sexiness that sees you waving the mistletoe in their direction just when you thought Santa had forgotten you. Thank Venus in your 9th as your lucky star from the 29th. It doesn’t matter if you’ve been naughty or nice – with Chiron in your 1st and Jupiter direct in your 2nd before the old year ends, the new one looks to be shaping up nicely.
In a nutshell: Embrace a heart-warming holiday season which aligns you to what truly warms your soul, Aries. For now – love where you find yourself. Ahead of you, 2024 offers a new direction. But that’s yet to be revealed. The here and now is what sparkles.

TAURUSThe final week of 2023 brings us a trine of higher love between Venus and Neptune – a pairing of true Christmas stars. Use this Peace of Earth vibe for inner peace – and to love who you’re with and where you are. Your 2024 forecast for your sign will be ready on New Year’s Day.
Say it all with love this week, Taurus. It is the season of goodwill towards all. Find as many loving ways as you can to express this under the full Moon in your communication sector (27th).
The 25th has ruler Venus in your 7th trine Neptune in your 11th while the 27th sees the Sun in your 9th trine Jupiter in your 1st. Stars of wonder for you connecting you to that higher love vibe and along with the Moon, pretty well promising you feel the love and connection with whomever surrounds you.
What are you seeking for the upcoming year, Taurus? Continuing the kind of depth and connection you’re feeling right now. Hold that. You need to know love is going to last longer into 2024 than a New Year’s Resolution. And this is a resolution you can’t afford to break. Look forward to increased abundance when Jupiter moves into your money house in May and say goodbye to a bank account redder than Santa’s outfit. Be inspired by a daring way to make more. But for now, be generous in spirit and don’t go overboard or splurge on those who don’t appreciate it.
Of course, the Grinch is the Mercury retrograde. Allow extra time if going anywhere or returning home. Especially around the 28th. Ruler Venus however hands solutions and links to your real needs. You may also want to steer clear of the sales too. Honestly, if you ask within – it’s not stuff you need. The best things in life are free and they are all around you this holiday season.
In a nutshell: The more you talk it, the more you feel it. Share those feelings and give the gift of telling those you care about just how much you do. It will return to you three-fold. Hold the feeling of the moment and allow it to fuel you in the year ahead.

GEMINIThe final week of 2023 brings us a trine of higher love between Venus and Neptune – a pairing of true Christmas stars. Use this Peace of Earth vibe for inner peace – and to love who you’re with and where you are. Your 2024 forecast for your sign will be ready on New Year’s Day.
Scrooge McMercury remains retrograde in your 7th. Don’t allow it to turn your ho ho ho into ho ho hmmmmm, Gemini. The 28th asks you stick to those Retro Rules like a list you made out for Santa. Tempers could become frayed if travelling. If not yours, then those of people around you. They may go too fast, not pay attention or delays banish the holiday spirit. If you can put off going anywhere until at least the day after, then do so and keep the festive cheer flowing instead.
However, you do have Venus arrive in what is its ruling house (your 7th) just in time to ring in 2024. Revise your love expectations and above all – expect them to be met with Jupiter on its way to you next year.
The retro-weather may bring unexpected benefits however as you re-think those goals and plans for ‘24. Expect what you thought you wanted to change. Especially around something longer term. Jupiter is headed your way in 2024 for the first time in 12 years. Big up that image or profile now. And big up expectations around love and other unions. Cultivate an abundance mindset as the turn of the year approaches under the full Moon in your 2nd.
As 2024 rolls in you could be looking at an opportunity to travel, study or just expand your career. Anything to do with publishing, broadcasting, the law, the travel industry, academia and even sports or animals is favoured. If you have an interest, chances are so do others. That new romantic one could share them or else you open up new avenues for yourself by telling others about it. Reaching out in whatever way is open to you is your key to drawing in new people – and fresh opportunities. That’s your gift.
In a nutshell: Where you’ve allowed yourself to ‘settle’ – as in into a rut or for less than you deserve, has no place in your vision for 2024, Gemini. Big up those ideas of just what you can have, experience or even become. The future is in motion. You get to create it.

CANCERThe final week of 2023 brings us a trine of higher love between Venus and Neptune – a pairing of true Christmas stars. Use this Peace of Earth vibe for inner peace – and to love who you’re with and where you are. Your 2024 forecast for your sign will be ready on New Year’s Day.
The full Moon in your sign plus the Sun now in your 7th puts you in extra loving and loveable mode, Cancer. You are the gift which keeps on giving. So much so if you have guests this holiday season, they may not want to leave.
There’s no doubt loved ones are the gifts under your tree. Or what you want from love for the coming year. You are more than sensitive to what others want from you. I am not talking about material gifts here. But the things that really matter to you such as emotional connection, love and security. The beautiful alignment between Venus and Neptune on the 25th sees you want to gather your beloved ones closer and give thanks. Or look to filling those needs on a soul level in the coming year (if that’s a deficit then Jupiter is on its way to help!).
However, while you are in giving mode, guard against becoming a martyr to other’s needs while neglecting your own. Don’t be afraid to ask for the support or help you need and remember – no matter how close others are, they are not mind readers! If love is out-of-kilter in some way with you doing the giving with not enough on the receiving end, it’s time to simply ask. Not Santa, that person closest to you. They want to give back. Who knows, they may be waiting for a clue from you on how best they can show their love. Give them that this holiday.
In a nutshell: Joy to the world and to you specifically, Cancer. The full Moon in your sign combined with the star-bright Venus/Neptune trine sees you at your most loved, lovable and loving. Yes, it does make the world go round. And your future revolve in ‘24.

LEOThe final week of 2023 brings us a trine of higher love between Venus and Neptune – a pairing of true Christmas stars. Use this Peace of Earth vibe for inner peace – and to love who you’re with and where you are. Your 2024 forecast for your sign will be ready on New Year’s Day.
Others may see the year as winding down, but you are just getting started when it comes to envisioning fresh possibilities for yourself in 2024, Leo. That being said, you should be very much in the moment and loving wherever you find yourself this holiday. Perhaps due to someone inviting you to join them for the celebration.
The full Moon in your 12th links you to your true needs, the meaning of love and also along with this week’s glorious Venus/Neptune trine, offers a glimpse of new beginnings or fresh opportunities just the other side of the 2023 – 24 divide. They sparkle and entice you onwards, Leo. But may just not be ready to fall within your grasp quite yet. New connections will prove to be increasingly important to you in 2024 – and this includes a possible romantic interest thanks to Venus’s arrival in your 5th (29th).
News on the work front could ricochet you on into the New Year and provided you do not go overboard in your spending, you should be more than able to afford to turn Christmas into the glittering gift festival you love – and still remain in the black. Do be mindful that Mercury remains retrograde in your 5th of holidays and mass transport. Check and reconfirm all arrangements and factor in everything from the weather to strikes to that person who is on Santa’s ‘Naughty’ list to cause a snafu as Mercury and Mars head-butt in here on the 28th. But does anything really distract your focus from what you know is waiting for you in ‘24? Unlikely, Leo.
In a nutshell: Expect to be inspired by a divine spark of visionary truth around what it is you truly need. Unless we know – we cannot attain it. New beginnings like on the other side of the old year/new year divide. Just waiting to be recognised and claimed, Leo.

VIRGOThe final week of 2023 brings us a trine of higher love between Venus and Neptune – a pairing of true Christmas stars. Use this Peace of Earth vibe for inner peace – and to love who you’re with and where you are. Your 2024 forecast for your sign will be ready on New Year’s Day.
What you resist, persists Virgo so let’s hope you’re not resisting the festive spirit. However, watch a family member or friend does not have too much of it as they may let slip something that has you wondering or reveals their true intentions – in vino veritas. Yep, blame your retro ruler conjunct Mars for that one (28th).
Needless to say, whether travelling home or further afraid, you do need those retro rules to hand like the ultimate seasonal advent calendar. There’s a fresh reminder behind every window in other words. It’s retro GPS for the soul. Have an alternative route to hand. Check everything then check again.
A deep conversation with someone you care for brings about fresh understanding thanks to the alignment between Venus in your 3rd and Neptune in your 7th. Allow your vulnerabilities a voice or simply share how much you truly care. If you have been having feelings of ‘I’m not worthy!’ you need to now ask yourself why? These are yours and yours alone. Your gift this holidays may involve seeing this for what it is. And marking them ‘Return to Sender’ like unwanted gifts. The universe simply wants you to be open to more love – not resisting it with misplaced doubts.
No matter what, the best holiday experiences may lie with friends as well as family this year – or you may combine both thanks to the full Moon in your 11th. Certainly opt for the large gatherings rather than the smaller ones if possible or spending the holidays in a way that’s radically different or with someone different to who you would usually choose. Celebration comes in diverse forms. And often starts with us being able to celebrate ourselves and being able to accept what the universe wants to gift us.
In a nutshell: Caring costs nothing. And sharing your true feelings is the gift that will keep on giving long after the presents have been unwrapped and the turkey sandwiches eaten. Don’t stint on how you gift these, Virgo. What you receive back in kind is oh-so-worth-it – and lasting.

LIBRAThe final week of 2023 brings us a trine of higher love between Venus and Neptune – a pairing of true Christmas stars. Use this Peace of Earth vibe for inner peace – and to love who you’re with and where you are. Your 2024 forecast for your sign will be ready on New Year’s Day.
Venus in its ruling 2nd in your chart trines Neptune on the 25th. You unwrap a new kind of rich feeling springing from what surrounds you and the here and now. The every day and what you take for granted is now something you shower with love and gratitude, Libra. And whatever you want to gain or achieve in 2024 – you know you can get it with what you already have or from where you are. Chances are you are already focussed on one particular goal which the full Moon in your 10th highlights for you.
Movement, travel, highways to heaven and opportunities will litter your path in the coming year. And Venus on the move into your 3rd (29th) supports and enhances your plans. It will be up to you which ones you opt to explore further once Jupiter moves into your 9th in May. Right now, with Mercury retrograde in its ruling 3rd and fusing its capacity to create confusion with Mars on the 28th – do check all the details before departing anywhere.
What you share with others or questions around money and resources, may have kept you occupied over this past year and you can expect fresh insights into these once Jupiter is direct in your 8th from the 31st. By the time it exits you will have the solution you need and restrictions will be behind you. For now with the Sun in your 4th, keep that focus on matters close to home. If you end the year single as a Pringle but yearning to merge and mingle, don’t get stuck on one kind of love. Is it time to explore another kind of togetherness? And yes, someone is coming. For now, single or settled, mark the end of ‘23 and the start of 2024 by simply enjoying being who you are with who you are with. Even if it’s just you. The best company you could want to keep. Rebalance the love within and the scales must reflect that in your outer world as you step into the New Year.
In a nutshell: That indefinable feeling that something or someone new is coming should not distract you from the gift of the present, Libra. By the way – you’re right. But don’t imagine you know love’s plan for you – yet. That’s all part of the surprise in ‘24.

SCORPIOThe final week of 2023 brings us a trine of higher love between Venus and Neptune – a pairing of true Christmas stars. Use this Peace of Earth vibe for inner peace – and to love who you’re with and where you are. Your 2024 forecast for your sign will be ready on New Year’s Day.
The full Moon in your 9th (27th) often brings in shifts and movement. If you are travelling this week do remember Mercury is retrograde in next door sign of Sagittarius – which rules travel and mass transport. And it meets your old ruler Mars in here on the 28th. Which may simply ignite Mercury’s ability to create mayhem. Forward planning, re-checking everything from the weather to departure times and above all, having more than Plan B in place can see you arrive unfazed no matter what the retro may throw at you.
I got the Grinchy, Scrooge, Ghosts of Retrogrades Present out of the way at the top of the forecast so you can then simply focus on the goodies overflowing from Santa’s astro sack for you this week. The trine between Venus in your sign and Neptune in your 5th could turn this holiday season into something truly special for you, Scorpio. Joy to the world as it may seem to others you have been sprinkled with stardust or just been selected to sit on the top of that tree and glow.
You should be feeling loved up and special. Plus – there’s no way you’re going to escape people’s notice either. This week can also alert you to a new income stream waiting to be explored in 2024. But don’t make the mistake of spending it before it actually comes in! You are in a generous and expansive mood.
Despite being the epitome of the holiday spirit, you are actually aware of the deeper aspects of this time of year and keen to spend it with others who while they may party like a Kardashian, are also tapped in to that more spiritual meaning behind all of this. You’ll want to share these insights with those you love. When the final champagne corks have popped by January 1, you’ll enjoy sitting down with like-minds and talking about the deeper meaning of life – and where you’re headed next. Love and the gathering of souls is what you’re really celebrating this holidays.
In a nutshell: The holiday season promises love and other blessings thanks to Venus in your sign. Making you feel extra-special. Gifts aside, you’ll crave meaning and conversations which reveal spiritual truths. Friends offer the depth and connection you seek as the year turns.

SAGITTARIUSThe final week of 2023 brings us a trine of higher love between Venus and Neptune – a pairing of true Christmas stars. Use this Peace of Earth vibe for inner peace – and to love who you’re with and where you are. Your 2024 forecast for your sign will be ready on New Year’s Day.
Jingle you all the way into ‘24, Sag. Ruler Jupiter ends its retroactive phase as one year ends and the new one begins. Ahead is your best cycle for partnerships that you’ve experienced in 12 years. Wait – scratch that. The best you have ever experienced and ever will thanks to the upcoming Jupiter/Pluto trine in June.
For now, another trine lights the sky on the 25th when Venus in your depth defining 12th aligns to Neptune in your 4th. This is a Back to the Future, lusciously sentimental moment where you may be transported back in time and recapture something from your past. There may be no place like home even for someone with your wanderlust, Sag. Others may see the return of someone or return to somewhere which re-awakens precious memories.
Do remember Mercury is retrograde in your sign and meets Mars in here on the 28th. Expect to encounter delays, breakdowns, cancellations or frayed tempers if going anywhere. You may also decide to leave something behind now. Not everything from your past is worth hanging on to. You’re shedding what you don’t need – old anger and resentments, people, things, in order to be unburdened for 2024
Others may see the year as ending, but in typical Sag style you’re just focussed on the new one that’s beginning for you. Venus entering your 1st (29th) makes it feel like you just got an invitation to the after-party following your birthday bash. Suddenly its about expectations again. This time always offers clues as to where you may be headed in the coming year and this week is no exception. New Year’s revelries could involve an unexpected invite. Begin to form a clear idea of what it is you really want and/or where you want to get to. Committing heart and soul to that dream is necessary for making it come true. As is taking action. Start your engines as Jupiter heads direct, Sag.
In a nutshell: You’re already starting those engines and planning your route for ‘24, Sag. But don’t miss out on the opportunity to recapture some magic from your past because you’re focussed on the future. However, take it you won’t be going forward with anything that burdens you or holds you back.

CAPRICORNThe final week of 2023 brings us a trine of higher love between Venus and Neptune – a pairing of true Christmas stars. Use this Peace of Earth vibe for inner peace – and to love who you’re with and where you are. Your 2024 forecast for your sign will be ready on New Year’s Day.
And so this is Christmas. Mercury still retrograde in your 12th and meeting Mars in here (28th) and the full Moon in your 7th (27th), means this holidays you are either going to feel part of a wonderful celebration or else woefully put upon and dying for it all to end. Is it jingle all the way or Bah, humbug? Are you sorry it’s over or hoping you never have to endure it all again? Friends rather than family may offer you the outlet or simply a better celebration thanks to the Venus/Neptune trine of the 25th. There’s also a touch of wish-fulfilment here as this is your house of those too. Did Santa get it right for you for once?
Family secrets or the truth could come tumbling out of the closet – and no attempt at shoving them back in there will succeed. Just keeping a lid on anything -from your emotions to that boiling pot of sprouts on the stove, may prove impossible. Running away may just look irresistible while others just bask in festive good feelings. Yes, it’s all or nothing, one way or another.
This continues all the way up to the New Year when again, you’ll either feel you totally belong or else are looking around thinking: Who are these people? If they happen to be relatives you may end up thinking about a DNA test. All this may be symptomatic of something bigger due to Pluto in its endgame in your sign. If you feel out of place perhaps it’s time for a new dynamic. You’re either with who or where you belong, or 2024 offers your chance to find that and be in a very different place this time next year. So no matter what – love the ones you’re with – warts and all.
In a nutshell: An all-Santa or all-Grinch holiday season with no middle ground sees you either revelling or planning your escape, Cappy. Hopefully it’s the former. Of course you remain the picture of festive charm no matter what. Need to have your own celebration to recover? Wait until the 29th.

AQUARIUSThe final week of 2023 brings us a trine of higher love between Venus and Neptune – a pairing of true Christmas stars. Use this Peace of Earth vibe for inner peace – and to love who you’re with and where you are. Your 2024 forecast for your sign will be ready on New Year’s Day.
You could get clarification around a goal which inspires as the old year ends. This simply fuels that vision for 2024. It’s going to be a year like no other due to Pluto’s move into your sign and Jupiter in your pleasure zone from May.
Do watch for plans to go awry if planning a get together in the run up to the New Year however. This is due to Mercury still very much retroactive in your social 11th. It meets up with Mars on the 29th and it someone has been trying to pull the tinsel over your eyes, the glitter wears off now. Leaving you wondering why you could not see the truth of this before.
This week could deliver revelations but also could have a Secret Santa surprise of heart-warming reconnections and fabulous new ones to be made too. If you encounter anyone new this week, they may assume a more important role that you imagined in the coming year. Either on a friendship, professional or a romantic level. What’s certain however is that this person is key to your path unfolding and also has no hidden agenda in mind.
Good things gravitate to us when we harness the force of gratitude. It’s so powerful. Like gravity nothing can resist it. No matter your situation, who you are with, where you find yourself or your circumstances – the trine between Neptune in your 2nd and Venus in your 10th on the 25th is a gift which can keep on giving. Yes, you may be embracing a soul-worthy moment. But no matter what, count those blessings. If you do the universe has the capacity this week to over-deliver when you begin to count them again. Within a gratitude practice lies the changes you seek for 2024. Begin it now.
In a nutshell: Harness the irresistible and powerful force of gratitude this week, Aquarius. This is the gift that over-delivers when it comes to creating more to be grateful for. It’s a week to recapture a lost goal or connection. Reconnect to the spirit within.

PISCESThe final week of 2023 brings us a trine of higher love between Venus and Neptune – a pairing of true Christmas stars. Use this Peace of Earth vibe for inner peace – and to love who you’re with and where you are. Your 2024 forecast for your sign will be ready on New Year’s Day.
Stars of wonder light your holiday sky with the trine between your ruler Neptune and Venus in your 9th (25th). Make a wish, Pisces. Perhaps it may have already manifested however. This alignment just wants to deliver blessings in the form of the way forward, freedom and connect you to something bigger.
Defer career plans for now and simply allow yourself to embrace the art of joy. Especially under the full Moon in your 5th. As far as success goes – where you want to get to in 2024 can wait. It may also shift in the upcoming weeks. You have Mercury retrograde in your 10th meeting Mars in here on the 28th. Hopefully you don’t have to rush back to work. If this cannot be avoided, watch for problems with your commute, technology outages, strikes, the weather – the retro list goes on. Just take it the festive spirit has been abandoned. Reality 2.0 rushes back in. Just do what you can and don’t give in to frustration.
This would only disconnect you temporarily from a sense of growing optimism when you think about the year ahead. Ancient ruler Jupiter will be opening doors for you. Or handing you the key quite literally, to a new one as it enters your house of home and living in May. If you are still imagining all the possibilities ahead for you, there is no hurry to settle on one in particular yet. Take your time refining that dream or vision. Add to it and enhance it as much as you like. The same goes for work, a goal or that relationship. You don’t have to make up your mind yet if you are not ready.
Enjoy all the final days of 2023 have to offer instead. The heart will send you in a fresh direction once the new year commences. And if its love you’re wishing for, there could be more than one contender waiting in the wings for the position of the ‘one’ for you. One more reason why you can just sit with the dream for a bit longer, Pisces.
In a nutshell: When you wish upon a festive star – especially when that star just happens to be your ruler Neptune, the dream answers with a way to make it real. A previously hidden path towards it opens up for you. 2024 has so much more to offer you if you dream bigger, Pisces.

Weekly Astrology December 18th 2023 Forecast for All Signs
ARIESLook back and count your achievements
No more comparisons
Intention powers you forward
A little reflection is allowed as the solstice occurs – but not too much, Aries! The tendency to look back at 2023 and assess what you did and didn’t achieve is expected. And also increased due to Mercury retrograde in your 10th. Just watch for being too hard on yourself or comparing yourself to others. This can happen especially in family gatherings. And when we may feel another sibling or family member is held up as the ‘favoured’ one.
Surprise returns or resets can occur. Or you simply decide to opt for a different dynamic and ditch any comparisons. That self-love and ability to celebrate all you’ve done rather than focusing too much on what you didn’t do, is what sees you gliding through the holiday season, glittering in fine, festive form.
Solstice time, and the Sun appears to pause in the sky. This is one of the two great reset moments of the year. For you, its about gathering up those achievements, and using these to cement your intentions for the coming year. Look at just how much you have done. Don’t allow this to be diminished by what others define as outer success.
This week also sees Pluto anaretic in your 10th (20th) and retroactive Mercury re-enter Sagittarius and your 9th (23rd). Yes, the usual Retro Rules need to be adhered to – especially if travelling anywhere. But this offers reboots, reintegration of goals for the coming year and a powerful realignment of purpose for you. Time to step into your power if that is what you have been shy of embracing, Aries. The 18th shows you just where you are heading next. And connects you to the knowing and resources to get you there.
In a nutshell: The best holiday gift you can give to yourself is to embrace your full power and potential, Aries. Don’t diminish your capacity for greatness but comparing what you have achieved to others. And don’t doubt the fact – you have a purpose.

TAURUSMake 2024 a procrastination free year!
See out ‘23 in Do or Dare mode
The path not taken calls
The path you take and the choice you make. No more putting off in 2024 what you promised you’d do in ‘23, Taurus. Or maybe this goes even further back than just 12 months? That bold, brazen step you know you should or need to take. But then find all those excuses not to. Such as the timing isn’t right for instance. Or you are just afraid of the consequences if you do. Often the thing we desire the most is also what scares us the most too. We may get what we want. That would take us away from what’s familiar. Even if what’s familiar causes us pain – sadly human beings are hard-wired to hang on to it.
This week makes not attempting something more painful than simply hanging on to the status quo. You see a life spent not exploring what could happen, is simply a life half-lived. You’re done with the twilight existence of that, Taurus! Pivotal moments or decisions appear on the 18th – when retro Mercury in your 9th tines Jupiter in your sign. And again on the 21st when ruler Venus in its ruling 7th opposes Uranus also in your 1st. Handing you a do-or-dare choice or option. If you are still asking yourself how could you possibly, then flip the dialogue and ask instead: How could you possibly not?!
Transformation, opportunity and freedom are what Santa has for you this holiday season, Taurus. An offer you can’t refuse. Or simply the choice of finally heading down that path you’ve been vowing one day to explore. Pluto in Jupiter’s ruling 9th moves to an anaretic (29) degree on the 20th. While the Sun lands in your 9th on Solstice Day (22nd). There’s a choice laid out in front of you. You’ve been here before but now it may be time to take that deep breath and simply jump in. One things for certain, Taurus – staying stuck is no longer an option. Explore something bigger for yourself.
In a nutshell: Something about the status quo needs to be shaken up, Taurus. What have you been putting off doing? With excuses the time simply isn’t right? This week tells you the time is right now. No more excuses. Just embracing the path you know you need to take.

GEMINIRelease yourself into something better
Focus your purpose
Take back your power and potential
Ruler Mercury retrograde in your 8th backs up into your 7th this week. As well as Travel could be impacted. You of all signs know the rules. But this week also concerns your past thanks to Mercury’s 2nd trine to Jupiter in your 12th (18th). You have one more superb alignment coming up. When Mercury heads direct again. This should have the effect of breaking you free of something. Or else it drops something (or someone) enticingly back within reach.
You’re in boss mode now, Gemini. And it’s time to take control. Of your future and where you want 2024 to take you. However, do understand that the universe or even your own soul and psyche, requires you to let go of something in order to have what you want. Perhaps that Dumbo feather or security blanket you’ve been clinging to, Gemini. The fact is, as Pluto moves to an anaretiic degree in its ruling 8th – you no longer need it. So releasing this is easy.
The Sun’s scorching meeting with your ruler on the 22nd (Solstice Day and when the Sun leaves your 7th), can also highlight any issues around co-dependency or anything which is no longer healthy for you. Yes, people can be our Dumbo feather too. And we may not even realise it. There’s the flip side however. Where we have handed over our power to others. With retro Vesta back in your sign (21st), if that has what has occurred, you’ll know its you who has to bring about your own release. Letting go is easy this week. From emotional and mental junk to any other clutter that holds you back.
In a nutshell: Power. Purpose. Potential. Yours to direct and use to craft something more satisfying, Gemini. Especially when it comes to partnerships. The past no longer defines you. Release a part of it to clear the way for something that feeds your soul.

CANCERLove is all you need
Be ready to receive as well as give
Communicate that Christmas spirit
Are you in an ‘All I want for Christmas is you’ kind of vibe, Cancer? As the Sun lands in your 7th bringing us the Winter Solstice and your yearly togetherness peak, Pluto in here moves to an anaretic degree (29). You also have Mercury retrograde in this house. You’ve so much to give – in a limitless way. Not just this week but all year. That’s simply your style. Pluto in this house has been transforming those needs however. Or a key relationship in particular. You’ll feel that focus and intensity now.
If you’re single – watch for an unexpected rom-com twist around the 21st. Anything that needs tackling should be approached on the 22nd when you can find exactly the right words to express your feelings. The Ghosts of Christmas Past could appear in the form of a blast from it. Is it sentimentality that has them in touch? Or a deeper reason? Above all, ensure the love you get matches that which you have to give. This may be the season for giving but it is also one of receiving too. Love isn’t just for the holidays, but year long.
The retro rules apply no matter which house Mercury is backwards in. So, don’t ignore them. Especially when Mercury re-enters its ruling 6th on the 23rd. Mercury retro in a ruling house maximises its capacity for mayhem. This is your house of long distance travel and mass transportation. If you’re heading out anywhere – pack a Plan B. But really, all you want for Christmas is connection, Cancer.
In a nutshell: The solstice brings with it your yearly love and relationship peak. No-one doubts your capacity to give, Cancer. But are you equally open to receiving? All you want this holiday season is that connection which hands you both. Seek it out.

LEOWhat you say you’ll do – you mean
Prioritise wellness
Give yourself the gift of slowing down
Ruler the Sun leaves its ruling 5th and fun sector of your chart, and enters your 6th on the 22nd. This is Solstice Day – the longest or shortest day depending on your hemisphere. And the time where the Sun appears to stand still. It joins retrograde Mercury in here – which rules this house. As well as Pluto back to an anaretic degree from the 20th.
Health and wellbeing matters will dominate now. Beyond the usual new year resolution gym membership or Dry January. Your ruler stopping in the sky (or appearing to), is your clue and your sign here, Leo. You need to pause and look closely at what is affecting you. Mind, body and spirit. Especially on a mental level which Mercury rules. The 22nd sees the Sun and that retro Mercury meet. If you’ve been chasing the lion’s tail all the way up to the holiday season, you may suddenly find you’re all out of roar! Do down-shift and take a time out if so.
This week offers benefits and bonuses. And a big serving of everyday magic. You’ll benefit the most if you slow down as the second beneficial trine occurs between Mercury and Jupiter in your 10th (18th). You have one more to come when Mercury heads direct again. But this could deliver a reward for some of you. While others may shift their thinking and look to a new routine or regimen for 2024. The thing is Leo – you mean it and intend to stick to it.
Mercury retro creates the most mayhem in a ruling house/sign. Unintentional snafus, mistakes, delays etc. can occur when we have simply taken on too much. Mercury then tells us to slow down. Because chances are we’ve been running on empty for too long. You’ll know if this is the source of that Mercury confusion. Happy holidays mean a happy, healthy you, Leo. Gift yourself with that.
In a nutshell: Attend to all matters in the Holy Trinity of Health and Wellness this week, Leo. That mind, body, spirit connection. Mental tiredness may result in mistakes or simply you feeling less than festive. It’s your cue to slow down and prioritise yourself.

VIRGODodge the Mercury mayhem!
What you’ve been waiting for appears
A twist in the tale could lead to a happy ever after
You don’t exactly have a Mercury Retro Get Out of Jail Free Card. But it’s pretty close to it this week. While other signs wonder whether Santa received that letter, or wallow around in confusion, you sparkle brighter than the tinsel on the tree. And also know exactly what you want to find under it.
Mercury’s trine to Jupiter in its ruling 9th (18th), removes blockages and barriers (18th). This is the second of three trines Mercury will make. Not only can it lift retrograde restrictions if you are travelling or around communications, it can deliver something you have been awaiting. News, that solution or answer. The return of an opportunity. A surprise release or twist which can appear between the 18th – 22nd. You have one more amazing trine coming up once Mercury heads direct once more. Which could quite literally seal the deal or open up something wilder and wider for ‘24.
You are entering your yearly pleasure peak once the Sun reaches your 5th. With Mercury backwards and also Pluto anaretic (20th) in here, love and other pursuits has a Back to the Future flavour to it. In the nicest possible way, this along with Mercury re-delivers pleasure, romance, nostalgia – but not in a mawkish, over-sentimental way. It’s sweet, sweet love, good times, the reappearance of someone from your past you’re happy to reconnect with. It’s gifts and giving. And perhaps returning to people and places you associate with being carefree and happy.
Watch for opportunities to let the good times roll again. Or a reboot around your work or how you do things. As Mercury backs into your 4th from the 23rd it’s Home, Sweet Home when it comes to what lights you up this holiday season.
In a nutshell: Your yearly pleasure peak coincides with your ruler backwards. But something puts a fresh spin on romance or other passions, Virgo. Returning to what’s familiar has you seeing it through fresh eyes. Recapture that past love.

LIBRACloseness is your best gift
Ideas ground you
What’s been held up, holds you up higher
You’ll appreciate your roots, family or small, intimate gatherings with people who feel like home to you this week. Something left hanging could suddenly come together for you as retro Mercury in your 4th trines Jupiter in your 8th (18th). News that has been held up – especially around money, contracts, payouts, could reach you just in time for Christmas as ruler Venus in its ruling 2nd opposes Uranus on the 21st.
The usual Mercury retro rules continue to apply here. Do allow extra time if you are travelling home for the holidays. Or travelling in general after Mercury backs into your 3rd – which it rules, from the 23rd.
The Sun’s arrival in your 4th along with retro Mercury and anaretic Pluto in here (from the 20th), promises a period where you will be looking at who and what underpins or enhances that all important sense of security. Any extra money you may receive now will most likely be channelled into that. You may be drawn to small gatherings rather than large ones. In fact, if you find yourself drawn into larger holiday celebrations, you may find yourself feeling overwhelmed or may opt to leave early.
What feathers your nest – or what you need in order to do this, will be very much on your mind. Be it your home (or a potential change of home), your family or those you live with and can’t live without, or what materially grounds you and adds to that feeling of security. Shore this up now. Someone who enhances this feeling of belonging for you could make this season extra special. Their thoughtfulness and the way they show they care, touches your heart. Others grasp an inspired idea which could literally lead to them putting down roots or sending them deeper. In the deep midwinter – it’s time for new growth, Libra.
In a nutshell: You’ll seek out the warmth, the closeness of connections and what makes you feel safe and secure this week. Small gatherings or homecomings add to that sense of belonging. Something you’ve been waiting on simply adds to your sense of home is wherever you find yourself.

SCORPIOWhat’s cooking between you and someone else?
Put the finishing touches to plans
Ideas or talk changes everything
Ruler Pluto moves back to an anaretic (final) degree of Capricorn and your 3rd this week. Making those final transformative moves to how you communicate, those ideas, writing, visual communication, speaking, teaching, publishing and the internet. As well as the devices you use to convey what you think or share.
Mercury is the ruler of this house, and is retrograde in here. This does mean it can serve extra Mercury madness. Do bear in this mind especially if travelling this week. However, you and another – that fellow mischief maker or partner-in-crime, could be hatching a plan together which could turn out to be a game-changer for both of you thanks to the trine between Mercury and Jupiter in your 7th. For others that old boss or ex could suddenly reappear or a bolt from the blue sees you contemplating something new and exciting as Venus in your 1st aligns to Uranus also in your 7th (21st).
Despite the backwards Mercury, there’s the promise of expansion or something new in the air around you as the Sun enters your 3rd on Solstice Day. If you have been sitting on an idea, now is the time to begin to refine it ready for launch in the new year. Anaretic Pluto promises a conversation or big idea which transforms you. Anything that still blocks your path will be laid bare. And what’s more by January you will have found your way around it.
The future of love or other options may look a little different to what you thought, Scorpio. But that doesn’t mean you should say no to it. Above all, get talking now. And rope others in to that grand design. Success comes from deciding you no longer want to go it all by yourself. Bring others into that conversation.
In a nutshell: What’s the big idea? Possibly the one that you and someone close to you are hatching, Scorpio. This week favours any venture that involves you and at least one other person. Don’t keep those thoughts to yourself. Share them or even re-start a conversation.

SAGITTARIUSYou have the talent to make it happen
Returns deserve serious consideration
Self-belief opens the way
Score one for Team Sag this week! Retro Mercury’s alignment to your ruler Jupiter in your 6th (18th), could see something you have been working towards suddenly come together. Or that news you have been waiting on finally arrive.
Do keep a tight hold of the purse strings however as Mercury is in your money zone – and joined by the Sun in here from the 22nd. This week stirs up themes around what you believe is possible for you to achieve financially. The Mercury/Jupiter trine – the second of three, should give you a nice boost around this. But Pluto has been responsible for a transformation in your attitude towards your resources and your earning power. You should be feeling more powerful when it comes to your financial destiny as a result. And as for that self-belief? Hopefully its now a force in its own right.
Venus in your 12th could also deliver on something from your past. Or a sudden twist to those plans actually frees you to go towards something better and more satisfying. Don’t get too attached to plans. Or even that visual you’ve been carrying around about what success or rewards look like. If someone from the past reappears with an offer – do give this serious consideration.
The usual retro rules do apply. Especially after Mercury returns to your sign (23rd). Do allow extra time to get where you are going if travelling. And check and recheck departure information and connections. Even the weather can play a role. Be prepared. If your goals for ‘24 include travel, there’s no better time to look to how you can fund this, Sag. Time to think big when it comes to that budget. Even if in the present moment, you’re all too aware of where the money goes. And think big when it comes to those ideas, too. One of them now could turn into a real money maker.
In a nutshell: Your birthday season ends but you’re left with a fresh determination and sense of self-empowerment when it comes to where you want to direct your destiny in ‘24, Sag. Anything returning from your past deserves serious consideration this week.

CAPRICORNLet passion direct your path
Events show you that you’ve not been passed by
Happy birthday, Capricorn!
Happy solstice, Capricorn! Something could be on offer now that asks you to say yes to it. Maybe its been bubbling away on a back burner. That solution, opportunity or idea. Now it reaches boiling point thanks to the second of three amazing trines between retro Mercury in your sign and Jupiter in your 5th (18th).
Time to go where your passion wants to take you. By now you know Pluto doesn’t do things by half-measures. It moves back to an anaretic (29) degree in your 1st from the 20th. Those of you with your Capricorn factors at this degree will be unable to ignore an irresistible call to act or initiate something. But no matter where those planets are for you – the urge will be compelling. You have to follow up, follow through or set something in motion for yourself. Some desires and dreams are too important to ignore. They are part of who you are. Too deny them is to diminish yourself. And your birthday season is about your right to shine – not the reverse!
If you’ve felt you have been passed by, ignored, or that you’ve not been the chosen one in work or love, these end of year aspects are set to put things to rights for you. Of course, you have to be open to possibly accepting something that may come in a different wrapper from what you expected it to. Yet it feels close or familiar.
This week asks you direct your destiny by following your heart. And also if in doubt, allowing it to make the choice for you. As the Sun enters your sign and fuses with retro Mercury, step out of your own way and be willing to trust yourself. The timing is perfect. You’ll know when to act – and also what to say yes to. Prepare to be gifted with the wait being well and truly over now.
In a nutshell: Any remaining feelings of being ignored, passed by, overlooked or that you’re not the chosen one, vanish during this extra-refining birthday cycle, Capricorn. The fact is if something didn’t work out the first time, it was because your destiny involved an alternative which is so much better.

AQUARIUSAnswer that call
What works for others may not be best for you
Design your own destiny
Venus in your 10th opposes ruler Uranus in your 4th (21st), while Pluto moves back to an anaretic degree in your 12th (20th). What you want to keep from your past, your roots, your beliefs, your path and purpose – and what now needs to be discarded, will occupy you this week. There’s a soul call happening. A pull towards something. People, a place, a path. You need to answer the call from the soul of your authentic self. And at a time when many of us return to our families for the holidays, to remain connected to your truth. What works for others may not work for you. And your path is yours and yours alone to walk, live and discover.
What’s right and remains relevant could enjoy a revival as retro Mercury also in your 12th trines Jupiter in your 4th. If travelling back to somewhere you have been in the past – it may appear new in some way. Past options or ideas get reinjected with present purpose and future potential. But what’s no longer a good fit for you is also apparent once the Sun arrives in here on Solstice Day. Its meeting with Mercury could bring an important truth around this. Or the return of something that remains future-proof for you.
The usual retro rules apply during this cycle. Don’t ignore them especially if travelling. Past friends and connections could be in touch or the holidays promise a reunion as Mercury backs up into your 11th. However, be wary of anyone with a history of asking for favours. Especially if this involves you lending them money. Sometimes the way to empower someone is to say no. You could recommit to an old goal or dream now. Again, this may be upcycled or repurposed to fit in with your increased awareness of what’s now right for you. And what isn’t. Your gift from the universe this holiday season will be the understanding that it’s never too late. To go after that dream or what’s right for you.
In a nutshell: Claim your true path. And the destiny you are supposed to live. Living your life on others’ terms is no longer an option for you. Sure, their choices may work for them. But this week reminds you to stay true to who you are.

People
People who need people
Are the luckiest people in the world
People, Henry Robert Merrill

Friendships, your social network, connections and contacts will be front-and-centre this week. It’s not what you know, but who during this cycle. It’s also not the time to be in hermit mode either. Nobody gets there alone is the message. Even solo round-the-world sailors need someone to build that boat and also to stay in touch during their voyage. People power is the greatest gift you can receive now.
The quote from the song ‘People’ at the start of this forecast highlights the fact that people co-create our future. As we play a role in co-creating theirs. People are what sets the luck factor in motion for us. Watch for invitations, news, DM’s, messages linked to goals or those who can assist in you reaching them around the 18th when retro Mercury in your 11th trines co-ruler Jupiter in Mercury’s ruling 3rd. If you’ve been waiting for something or that answer, this is when it can appear. Breaking you out of the retrograde blues.
People from far off places, who appear larger than life in some way, friends in high places or with influence, could open up surprising new paths or opportunities. That chance meeting or introduction turns out to be most significant than you first thought. Do keep an open mind as Pluto moves to its final degree in your 11th. This will also show you which connections still hold meaning. And which ones are now past their sell-by date.
Someone could show you just how good a friend they are as the Sun moves into your 11th and meets retro Mercury. While the Sun angles to Saturn in your 1st on the 24th. If help is on offer, it is held out with no hidden agenda in mind. A contact has a long term role to play in your future. Or you in theirs. Your squad, your entourage, your circle could enlarge or contract this week. But what it contains are the people who have your back. You’ve come together to make things happen. For the kind of good that goes around.
In a nutshell: Your future is in motion this week. Even as people from your past may resurface. You’ll know for sure if a connection still has that old resonance. Who is drawn into your orbit, has an all-important part to play.

New Moon in Sagittarius Moonscope December 2023
Growth is the theme of the new Moon in expansive, wish-fulfilling, go bolder Sagittarius. This is the last new Moon of the calendar year. The final opportunity to set those intentions ahead of the new one. Astrologically speaking, this new Moon is a far more powerful and potent point to set those new year resolutions than January 1. That’s because January 1 is merely a calendar date. So, if it will expand your soul, create a learning opportunity for you on some level, and most importantly lead to growth, then now is the time to set your intentions and begin it.
And go big with the goals. Sagittarius is ruled by Jupiter – the largest planet in our solar system. Go big or go home is a Sag motto. No small goals. No small outcomes.
First – a growth gratitude exercise. Take some time before you choose new stars to aim for, to look at the ones you reached this year. Review all you’ve achieved, learned and accomplished that led to growth on a key level for you. Anything that presented you with a learning curve, which opened your mind to fresh possibilities, that showed you more options, which expanded your worldview or added to your knowledge and experience base. See – you did greater than you imagined!
So, now take that feeling of bold capability and apply it to something new. This new moon especially favours any activity which leads to growth in travel, foreign affairs of all descriptions, transportation, academic study, mass media, the law, religion and philosophy, the outdoors, luck and speculation, sports and large animals especially horses. Do any of these areas touch on where you want to go in ‘24? Will it lead to growth and expansion? Above all – is it a big step away from what’s familiar for you? That’s your star to set a course for under this new moon.
ARIESTake all of the above themes, and weave them into a map for 2024, Aries. Then – it’s the kind of leap we associate with the card of The Fool in the Tarot. Step off the edge. Please don’t procrastinate when it comes to starting something. Or take too long mulling over whether you should accept an offer or not. They who hesitate see opportunity move in another direction. Jump!
This is about faith as much as anything else. Faith in yourself. If there’s hesitation, it’s not the universe you don’t trust. It’s you. If you are momentarily frozen with self-doubt, revert to the growth gratitude exercise again. Review all you have accomplished and what this says about how capable you are. Look at that track record of incredible, daring and fierce accomplishments. Do they leave you in any doubt of your greatness? Or ability to go conquer or get what you want?
You don’t have to have to make the entire journey at once. Sometimes when we get frozen in place its because we are overwhelmed by just how much there is to do. Or how far we need to travel. That’s understandable if it occurs. But all you have to do right now is take that first step towards that dream. Just the one. Then the next one after that. Each step reveals the next. Of course, those of you infused with signature Aries daring just leap. Leap or step – it doesn’t matter. Make that move towards that dream and bring it closer.
TAURUSIf we want others to be open and share with us, often we have to put on our brave pants and make that unilateral move, drop the defences, and share ourselves first. One relationship which has been confusing you as to how to deal with it or simply how to figure out this connection, gains clarity under this new Moon. It’s in your house of shared assets and yes, sex. The Moon is asking you to get clear on what you want from all this, Taurus. Chances are that connection is solid gold. The bullion to the bull that symbolises your sign. Perhaps you have been trying to figure out what the other party wants? If so, try the direct approach and just ask them. If you feel they don’t get what you need – lay your cards on the table.
This Moon links you to change and also riches. A fearless, candid approach with others not only cuts to the chase, but can lead to win/wins and better understanding. This is your house of that joint account/home, your salary, taxes, benefits, mortgages, investments and loans. Intangibles that are shared. Time, influence, expertise, possessions, chores, a bed. Big and rich thinking. Generosity. Be generous and fearless with what you have to share. Including those fears and insecurities with someone close to you.
Something very important – a partnership, working dynamic, idea, close friendship, money matter is in a totally different category for you than what you have dealt with in the past. That doesn’t mean its wrong for you or anything negative. In fact, if it escapes you trying to pigeon hole it this may show its a very good thing. But you do need to clarify something about it. Put it on solid ground. Be honest. Make that unilateral move, Taurus. What emerges will be solid gold.
GEMINIBig up those love goals. And welcome back in that passionate, intense, aliveness of the real thing! If you lost the faith in the power of love, if you had begun to believe that it had passed you by, gone cold or that life itself had turned into one long meh flatline – this fabulous new Moon ushers in not just the season of relatedness but a new era of loving!
Despite not being Venus ruled or having this year’s Venus retro in a ruling house/sign, there’s no doubt experiences and messages around love were affected by Venus backwards in your house of communication, Gemini. This new Moon is your official restart. And Cupid could go crazy this festive season firing off arrows in all directions. No, it transcends ‘cuffing season’ as this is your yearly love and partnership peak in any case.
This is when a fresh chapter gets written in your Book of Love. Its also one of your peak attraction periods. Single or settled, it can bring in new people because this is the Season of Relating. This includes relating to yourself and your own needs when it comes to relationships. This new Moon impels you to begin the process of creating the love you want. It’s not about being passive. But becoming that catalyst of love creation! Show how you care in everyday little ways. Give the gift of yourself unconditionally. Put yourself out there. This new Moon activates all close connections. Past, present, potential. Friendships, lovers, spouses, working partnerships, collaborations. Know the love that’s meant for you can’t miss you or go past you if you are looking for someone special. The belief you carry around love attracts the real world reflection. Be ready for brand new loving.
CANCERLet the fire signs make the big, bold, loud and obvious moves, Cancer. Yours are just as important but you’ve a more subtle approach which keeps those big plans on the down-low for now. This new Moon sees you quietly ambitious about some big plans or changes. But you may be keeping them to yourself. Refining them. Or simply going about attaining them in such a beautifully aligned and organised way that others completely miss what you’re doing until you present them with the dazzling result!
This new Moon can see you harnessing the pure gold of ideas welling up within you. Do you have an idea? Something potentially valuable, liberating and different? Maybe you’ve not been too certain as to what you should do with it up until now. Or even if you should explore it at all! But now this Moon triggers the desire to simply see what could happen if you follow through. Perhaps you’ve been telling yourself you’d wait for the new year to apply for that new job, explore that new health regimen, do something with that side hustle or look into that course? Somehow continued sitting and mulching isn’t something you can do. So, you surprise yourself by doing it anyway. But decide to wait to tell others until you see the results come in.
If you want to change up what you do every day in ‘24, if that routine is too restrictive, repetitious or just keeps you on that hamster wheel, this Moon contains all the rare elements you need to take a chance and transform it into something enlivening and special. Every little thing you do leads to every day magic if you change it up. Surely, quietly, subtly. One small step at a time, Cancer.
LEOYour passion and imagination are tickets to ride that love train with the new Moon in your 5th, Leo. ‘Tis the season to be fabulous. And to deck yourself out in your festive finery. Feel it to be it or attract it. That’s the rule of the new Moon in here.
The magic of the season can catch you up. You don’t do Grinching. Like a big kid your generous spirit wants to share and give. Don’t go overboard however. Babies, children, young people help you unleash your own inner creativity and magic. Games, hobbies, playfulness sets you free. Of course, this is the party season. You will deck the halls with your own grand of glamour. If you are the one throwing the party, it could prove to be the highlight of the season.
Love is in the air and under the mistletoe. You won’t take things too seriously however. A little pucker-up and passion is enough to keep you going into the new year. The past Venus retro has refined your requirements. So, you’ll be happy to just wait and see how things unfold in ‘24.
This is a new Moon which asks you to be totally and utterly in the moment between now and the next one in the New Year. To love the one you’re with, the company you keep, and your life in general. Don’t look too far ahead. Surround yourself with upbeat, positive souls. You won’t do negativity now. You’re on show in some way. Either in person or via your social media feed or your creativity. Bring that touch of stardom to whatever you do or wherever you go. Let events and conversations take you where they will. The party’s wherever you happen to be, Leo.
VIRGOParty season? The one you host in your own home could give you and others literally the festive event of the year and the time of your life. Or it’s hosted by a family member.
You want to gather those you love and care for around you. To surround yourself and them with caring, the nostalgia of Christmas past, the comfort of things well-loved. The gifts you choose may be for the home or else be traditional fare. Some of you may even make or bake these.
Time also to nurture yourself. The season of goodwill extends to self-care in here. The new Moon is in its ruling house in your chart. Homeward bound thoughts draw you towards your roots, family or that place there’s no other place like. Wherever in the world this happens to be. Surround yourself with emotional and physical safety. And also look to what you need to sustain that feeling for you in the coming year. If you feel a move or lifestyle change is in order, now is the time to begin to visualise what that looks like and plan for it.
This new Moon heightens your awareness of the feelings of others. And of vibes wherever you find yourself. Although you are in a deeply caring and emotive state, you instinctively know what’s needed wherever you find yourself. That shy person on the peripheral of the party? Your sensitivity and desire for everyone to enjoy themselves means you’ll spend time drawing them out. You step in to offer help when you intuit someone is overwhelmed – be it with hosting or at work. You are the gift that keeps on giving this holiday season, Virgo. Just know when you need to do the same for yourself.
LIBRABeing the natural diplomat of the zodiac and also the sign of partnerships, you are adept at putting people at their ease and being able to form instant connections, Libra. These abilities are always heightened under the new Moon in your 3rd of communication. You’re not just the life and soul of that festive scene, but at home in it no matter where or what it entails. You’re oh-so-open to new encounters, a fresh scene, dishing that tea, flirtations and conversations that cover any topic.
The more curious, open and outgoing you are, you’ll soon see the more connections are made and doors open between now and the first new Moon of 2024. Get talking in other words. This isn’t the time to cocoon or stay home. Expect an up-tick in your social life and on social media.
Above all, it’s time to look back at how far running with those ideas got you over the past 12 months. And where they could possibly take you in the next year. Did you make the most of them? Did you follow through on that introduction, opportunity, acquaintance? Being the season of goodwill its not too late for that reach-out. Or to revive that plan if you now see you could have done more with it.
That being said, the spark of something new flares into life. This can be a project, business or communication idea, book, podcast, screenplay, subject you want to pursue. Or intriguing new someone who crosses your path. Follow up, Libra. Don’t just leave something in the realm of ideas. Or possibilities. Does that new person have Sagittarius or Gemini factors in their chart? Pay attention if so. You provide the base material. They are the catalyst that sets the success reaction in motion.
SCORPIOWhat do you need funding, Scorpio? If more folding stuff is what’s at the top of that list to Santa, then what do you need it for? Do make this something substantial. And something that hands you more than money can buy. Such as experience, knowledge, self-worth. It shouldn’t be something you can attain simply by budgeting smarter for a couple of months. Not that you now don’t have that skill if needed. It should be a goal that asks you to explore a wider range of options to make it happen. But those which are within your reach if you make that extra effort. And having made it, you can then reach your goal within say six months.
It has to matter to you. And it must add value to your life. Those are the only two givens. So within this, it can anything from an income goal you wish to attain, a trip you want to fund or even a relationship. You’re also slowing down even as you focus more insightfully on this. What steps no matter how small do you need to take? You see how even small efforts or adjustments have a big impact on how you get there.
This new Moon whispers that the world could just be your oyster right now. You will pick one major goal or area you wish to focus on, and then channel all your intense Scorpio star power into that. And you won’t be distracted until you’ve achieved what you’ve set out to do.
SAGITTARIUSNew Moon in your sign. New cycle. New possibilities. New YOU, Sag! No matter when your birthday falls, this is the start of your astrological new year. If you have your Sag sun or other Sag factors within a 1-2 degree orb of the new Moon, this new beginning will be especially powerful. But for all Sagittarians it is loaded with potential just waiting for you to live it!
Ready for the next big step? The next soul expanding adventure? The big, bold love which even the pursuit of evolves your soul? The message is never to let go of your dreams, Sag. You have to pursue them. That’s what you are here to do. And in doing so you become the bright beacon of exploration for the rest of us!
Boundaries and barriers dissolve. Heaven help anyone now who rains on that ticker-tape parade or tries to limit your thinking. Your confidence and self-determination are fuelled up and ready to take you where you want to go. This new Moon is all about the importance of being yourself and having faith in your own vision. So what if the path you want to explore is different to other people’s? This is your journey – not theirs.
Time for a little reinvention or a relaunch, Sag. With a new cycle you need to showcase a fresh facet of yourself. Don’t allow others to take you for granted. And if you feel you’re seen in a certain way it’s also time to challenge a few outdated perceptions. Yes, you can opt for a different look. Or just a daringly different approach to how you’ve been doing things too date. If you want to attract something or someone new and different – from a relationship to circumstances and on into opportunities, that begins with a different you.
CAPRICORNHidden truths and concealed opportunities make themselves known ahead of your birthday cycle, Cappy. This is the point where you may alternate periods of ho-ho-ho-ing and holiday cheer with profound recharging and withdrawal. Do be guided by what you intuit to the right for you at the time.
You may want to take some time out to nurture your dreams for ‘24 in the quiet, dark twilight of contemplation, meditation and visualisation. Take all the time you need and don’t feel pressured to be the life and soul of the festive season if you’re really not feeling it. At least for the run up till the Sun reaches your sign when you will emerge reborn and ready to glow again.
Time out shows you any resources or un-mined future treasure that you may have overlooked. That idea which still has so much merit. Where you’re kidding yourself as to what you really want for instance. Think back to times when things didn’t turn out how you imagined. They turned out better than that! Know you are on the cusp of yet another example of this.
When you do feel it’s the right time to enter into the holiday spirit, please be extra mindful of the company you keep or how long you spend in it. You are extra sensitive now. Those who are high maintenance, depressive, attention seeking, too drunk, too loud . . . they will impact you more intensely now than at other times. By all means join in, Capricorn. You’re not the Grinch. But also know when to leave the party and preserve your sensitive spirit for better things. Like nurturing those visions and dreams.
AQUARIUSThe new Moon you always love because it promises something different, unusual, unexpected and vibrant. That last minute, unscheduled event that takes you out of your usual routine. Or replaces what you thought you were going to be doing with a much more exciting alternative.
Do be flexible and open. Aside from the new Moon in your 1st, this one is the most attuned to your Aquarian soul of the year as it appears in your 11th house. It also reboots your social life. Or opens up a new scene for you. You should know not to refuse any invites now. Especially the ones that are likely to bring new and very different people into your orbit. Friendship gravity is strong. Be ready to swap contact details. Connections open eyes, minds, doors – and yes, perhaps even hearts.
However, be aware that as well as the very best company, you could find yourself at a gathering where someone just doesn’t know when to quit or call it a night. Or who simply may not act their age or in a way that’s appropriate for the company you’re in. Yes, office parties spring to mind. But this could just as easily be a social gathering. Be prepared to step in but also ensure you’re not seen as implicated by association. This could require deft handling and diplomacy. You could be talking about what happened at one event or party for weeks to come. Hopefully this is about how great it was. And not due to someone’s embarrassing behaviour.
You’re not responsible for any party poopers however. This new Moon re-energises your goals. Infusing existing ones with fresh determination and meaning. Or seeing you setting your signs on a new and dynamically inspiring one. Someone you interact with this holiday season may have a pivotal role to play in its pursuit. Or could even join you on the journey. Just take it you know how to party now. And others want to party with you.
PISCESThat’s not a party. That’s a function you’re hosting or attending, Pisces. Properly catered. Table set. Decorated beautifully. You’re gravitating towards tradition, quality not quantity and in making memories that last long after the tinsel has been taken down.
That doesn’t mean you can’t relax and have fun. But first you’ll need to know things are done properly and that everyone is enjoying themselves. Then out pops your famous no-limits sense of humour and willingness to indulge.
The new Moon in your 10th is one where you will be looking at your personal and professional ambitions for the coming year. You will be weighing up all you have achieved. Taking from this a well-earned sense of satisfaction. Even as you plan your next big move. Yes, for some of you this is the season of recognition with tangible rewards on offer. That bonus, acknowledgement, thank-you. You know you’ve earned it. But if its not forthcoming or what you feel you deserve, don’t allow this to dull your enjoyment. Do however use this Moon’s energy to seek out what will give you the rewards you seek in the new year.
Your ambitions are making themselves known. Not at the expense of being in the here and now. But they are telling you that you have only scratched the surface of your potential. Where do you want this to take you? Your soul is nudging you to aim higher.
You’ll be drawn towards giving others lasting and what we can say are the traditional gifts. The gimmicky won’t sit right with you. And funny as you’ll appreciate the same in return. You want things to last. From that warm festive feeling, to the memories, to the plans you make for the future now. Everything’s a keeper. Just ensure that they know you are too, Pisces.

Weekly Astrology December 11 2023 Forecast for All Signs
ARIESAlign that soul compass
Go big
Course correct if needed
Just where in the world do you want to go? Whether your destination is a higher view from that corporate ladder or simply an actual place on a map. Simply pin it for now but plan too along with the new Moon in your 9th (12th) which is all about the big moves.
Also, do look as the Sun in here squares off against Neptune in your 12th on the 17th as to who or what has not delivered on their promise, Aries. You know this could be a professional just as easily as it could be a personal connection. That accountant, lawyer, estate agent – if a name or title jumped to mind, you do need to keep emotion out of your decision and be all business now.
If you believe a second opinion is needed – seek it out. Mercury slamming on the brakes in your 10th where professionals reside along with your own ambitions, supports this move. As it does putting those big moves in the planning or refinement stage. It will return to your 9th shortly. I should not need to over-sell the need to have more than one Plan B if you are travelling now. Or be prepared to wait until January for something to finally be decided. But I can tell you that in a very subtle way you are on the move, Aries. The new Moon promises that. And that direction is towards opportunity – and up.
In a nutshell: Big plans, expansion and opportunities are ushered in by the new Moon in your 9th. But wait! That fresh direction may take a while to appear due to Mercury retro this week. Take it slow, and ask for directions if needed.

TAURUSTrue expression gets you the result you need
Replace outworn dreams with new ones
Act to bring about deep, soul-centered change!
The week begins with love-powered shifts thanks to Mercury’s alignment with ruler Venus in its ruling 7th (11th). Your fierce desire to express your feelings acts as a catalyst, Taurus. Leaving others in no doubt of your heart-centered intentions.
The new Moon in your 8th is also the point where your personal power is reignited. If you have felt disconnected from this or that it has been dormant lately, it is now awakened again. You step into the role of the ultimate warrior for love. Use this to look towards bringing about a positive change. Perhaps around your intimate relationship or even your money.
Yes, some of you could see your faithful, seeking heart begin to beat faster at the thought of a new romantic prospect! Others could be eyeing off that promotion or new position. Whatever it is, you feel an awakening, a deep intention forming to have it and/or make it happen. You do have time to adjust and plan. So, hone this as Mercury heads backwards in your 9th. And as this is your house of long haul travel, mass media/transit, big business and studies, do keep those retro rules in mind.
You may make a shift around what you thought you wanted to a better, more soul refined decision as the Sun and Neptune combine to throw a spotlight on your future path (17th). You’re happy to change direction if so. And also make change what you seek to engage with.
In a nutshell: Have a back up plan – possibly more than one, if travelling now Mercury is retrograde and Jupiter remains backwards in your sign. You’re in ultimate Warrior for Love mode this week. More in your New Moon in Sagittarius Moonscope.

GEMINIIf you can’t take it any further – pause for thought
Love unfolds on its own schedule
It takes two to tango in ‘24!
This week sees ruler Mercury reverse in your 8th. Take it that a major issue around intimacy or your money has had the pause button pushed on it until the new year. Hey – you’re the retro boss, not the retro at-a-loss, Gemini. So don’t you forget that.
Do however try to bring work projects or changes to your routine to a stage where they can be released or just parked for now by the 11th when slowing Mercury sextiles Venus in your work zone. You can add one final finishing touch and then let that go. Do all you can up to this point.
The headline for you this week is the new Moon in your 7th. Ushering in a fresh phase of relatedness. Don’t be in a hurry to push forward with that new potential love interest however. The reason I say this is that Mercury will back up into your 7th again before it heads direct in January. Just let things unfold on their own schedule and enjoy the build up. If someone disappears this may be temporary. Don’t panic nor give in to the hysteria of cuffing season. You are beautiful. You are complete – just the way you are and your status is.
Those settleds or even looking for a new type of union – that work or business alliance for instance, can begin to envision what It Takes Two looks like for 2024. This is the start of one of the most important phases of personal attraction and interaction that you have experienced in 12 years. Which gets kick-started in May when Jupiter reaches your sign. It all begins with you and love starts with our relationship with ourselves. Get clear on what – or who, fits you. Just the way you are, Gemini.
In a nutshell: The Sagittarius new Moon ushers in a new phase of togetherness ahead of the main event in ‘24 for you, Gemini. But take this slowly. Ruler Mercury slams on the brakes and reverses. Align with your emotional journey. It takes time to unfold.

CANCERMake that loving and healthy choice
Refine that routine
Joy is the soundtrack you dance to
Love gives you pause for thought this week as Mercury retrogrades in your 7th (13th). Before it reverses, it makes a sublime alignment to Venus in your 5th (11th). Attraction, declarations and messages of love or a feel-good moment occurs. It’s an invitation to dance with joy. Don’t RSVP to the negative.
This week’s new Moon appears in Mercury’s ruling 6th on the 12th. Looking at how you can change up that work/life balance, those habits, your schedule or routine will benefit you in ways you may not yet be able to imagine, Cancer. Think of this as the ripple effect. It’s time to slow down for self-care, to look at what you do each day – your job whether paid or unpaid and your studies if you are undertaking these. Your diet, exercise or lack thereof. Your habits and your down-time. Be ready to refine these over the coming weeks. To make healthier choices and to see those fresh habits stick.
Looking into the secrets of blue zones may hand you inspiration around this. Do also keep the retro rules in mind as Mercury’s ability to deliver mayhem is enhanced in a ruling sign/house in our charts. In particular, travel plans may be impacted. And steer clear of looking for that new hustle until after Mercury clears retroshadow if you possibly can.
If you’ve been telling yourself that nagging inner voice is just background static you can ignore, the 17th proves its anything but that. Dealing with it once and for all delivers the seasonal peace in your own inner world feeling you’ve been striving for.
In a nutshell: Little things mean a lot with this week’s new Moon in your work and day job sector. Small changes add up to bigger shifts. Adjust as needed towards a healthier option which energies. More in your New Moon in Sagittarius Moonscope.

LEOReawaken the wonder
Reclaim joy
You know what you want from love
Expect a big change ahead for ‘24 and beyond. In your own life or the life of someone you are intertwined with. There’s also going to be a shift in a key dynamic or your relationship status once Pluto moves into your 7th. Check your Cancerian circle to get an idea what this could bring.
This week whispers seasons greetings in the form of rom-com moments, childlike wonder and you set to sparkle with the new Moon in your 5th (12th). Ruler the Sun remains in its home house right up until the 22nd. Time to set something in motion that may have links to something from your past. Or again, work that newly emerging power dynamic as you step into a feeling of creative clarity and empowerment. Watch the 17th for that moment when you step into this.
Elsewhere in the sky Mercury heads into retro mayhem in its ruling 6th (13th). Just days prior to this could see you bring something to fruition. Now its time to rest when it comes to initiating the new and think about what you want to achieve in 2024. Mercury will return to your 5th next week so do adhere to the retro rules especially if travelling. That new dynamic I mentioned could include a reclaim of something you used to love to do or a facet of who you used to be. That’s the biggest gift you could give yourself this season.
In a nutshell: The new Moon in your fabulizing 5th ushers in a season of joy, creativity and wonder. You are filled with the lightness of love and opportunity. Watch for the return of something or someone you loved. New beginnings have their roots in the past.

VIRGOHome is where the focus is
Plant the seeds for your future
It’s pivot week!
Ruler Mercury’s retrograde in your 5th (13th) marks the beginning of an important change of direction, Virgo. You may not yet see this as you are well aware that a Mercury retro makes everything a little shady and nothing is decided – in this case until the end of January. However, when you look back at what is the final Mercury retro of the year, you will see this wasn’t the usual chaos and confusion at all. But the start of something being formed.
That ‘something’ could turn out to have a touch of delightful permanence to it. Or have been on your wishlist for some time. Do watch for who appears in your DM’s or the news you receive on the 11th as this could mark the point where everything pivots.
This week’s new Moon asks you to put your house in order and look to your home, support structure, living arrangements, lifestyle and path. This is now a time for life/property renovation rather than actual moving due to Mercury retro re-checking into this house next week. If you are presently engaged in buying, selling, renting or leasing property, then prepare for things to stall, reverse or slow down. This happens traditionally without the Mercury retro at this time of year. Mercury backwards in the mix simply maximises it. Your best holiday strategy is to simply deck the halls right where you are. For now.
If you are looking to improve your current property, then do your research into anyone you are thinking of hiring. From that builder to that interior designer. And yes, you might want to hold off on making your decision until Mercury has cleared retro-shade in January. This week or rather Mercury retro cycle, asks you plant the seeds for your future on some level. Sometimes this means sending those roots deeper. Other times it means pulling them up to transplant them somewhere new. Room to grow should be your game plan now.
In a nutshell: Home is where your heart and your focus is with the new Moon in your 4th. This ushers in a new lifestyle phase. But take your time with property decisions as ruler Mercury slams on the brakes. More in your New Moon in Sagittarius Moonscope.

LIBRARevise, research – gather the facts
Pack that alternative route or Plan B
Share that loving kindness close to home
Got a plan, a project or simply something to say or places to go? Do slow down with the new Moon in your 3rd, Libra. Yes, this is normally one of the best launch windows of the year for that idea. Or for that application, pitch or major step towards that destination. But slow will be the new fast as the day after this new Moon, Mercury which rules this house turns full retrograde in your 4th.
We can also say you may not yet have all the facts or information you need. There may be a missing piece of the puzzle. Or you are operating on an outdated assumption or insight due to this week’s snarky angle between the Sun and Neptune in your fact-defining 6th (another Mercury ruled house!). All this is telling you there’s something still to be uncovered. Or that you may need to bring that idea to a successful completion.
Mercury will shortly return to its ruling 3rd. So its mayhem creating madness is exponentially expanded. Steer clear of excessive expenditure, those ‘bargains’ – so not, click bait and also know your alternatives when planning any trip. I can’t emphasise that enough.
Someone close to you – perhaps in your family circle, or with whom you live with, may need your special brand of kindness, care and intuitive insight this week as slowing Mercury aligns to ruler Venus in your 2nd on the 11th. Take time for this. As you may take time for a project into which you have poured a lot of love and care. Nurturing pays off in so many ways this week. Soothing and slow steps get you what you – and others, need right now.
In a nutshell: Intuition nudges you to look deeper before taking something further, Libra. It may take time to gather the facts or do that due diligence – but the results will be worth it. Someone close may need a hug.

SCORPIOWhat is worth your investment?
All in or all out
Cash in or cash out when it comes to love
Once you have made a decision, we all know you are going the distance, Scorpio. You can be more determined and in for the long haul than a Capricorn once you make your mind up about something. The new Moon in your 2nd this week (12th) marks a decision to invest in something – or cash in. Either way this is definitive.
The overarching question is where you invest your love. Yes, this is your money zone and right now you are blessed by the ruler of it (Venus), in your sign. But it is about far more than just your cash and income and what you do with that. It’s about those intangible investments of time, talent and yes, love. These resources are precious. And also limited. You may be looking at investing in something to boost your income level. That side hustle, a better paying job for instance. But it has to be worth it in terms of the love you know you have to give it.
If that investment in anything hasn’t yielded what you hoped, you will cut your losses during the next two weeks and look for a better option. What’s worth it will become very clear now as the undeniable truth emerges around the 11th and then on the 17th. Guess what, Scorpio? If all this involves someone else it’s their loss and not yours. You have the Mercury retrograde on your side when it comes to auditing or reassessing those options. And what is worth your continued investment is oh-so-clear now.
In a nutshell: A new Moon in your money zone is more about your cash. But has you on a self-worth and emotional investment audit. It’s okay to calculate if you are getting back at least the same as you put in. Otherwise – invest elsewhere.

SAGITTARIUSPause for perfection
Keep your focus
What starts slow gains momentum
The new Moon in your sign always marks the astrological start of your new cycle regardless of when your birthday actually falls. This is a Begin It NOW moment for you on the 12th. And particularly powerful for those Sagittarians whose birthday falls on this day.
Yet how is it plans seem to be unfolding at a slower pace than you would like, Sag? For one thing, ruler Jupiter remains retrograde right up until the final day of ‘23. And now Mercury joins it, heading back your way from the 13th. Don’t forget – there’s a season and a reason for everything. This new cycle begins with an invitation to stop and smell the roses. Or the mulled wine. There’s a reason to slow down and that is because you may miss a crucial detail if you don’t.
With both your ruler and now Mercury retro, travel needs pre-planning and also Plans B thru Z. Keep your focus close to home on the 17th because this is a day when you can’t afford to ignore anything from leaving that door unlocked to paying attention to that family member. The start of the week could gift you with something that you’ve been hoping on waiting on. And don’t worry, Sag. Just because the old year unwinds slowly, doesn’t mean the new one won’t fast track you.
In a nutshell: The new Moon in your sign marks a clear demarcation point between your old cycle and the upcoming new one. You may surprise yourself at the fact you’re not in a rush to go conquer the world. Wait and it could just come to you. More in your New Moon in Sagittarius Moonscope.

CAPRICORNTie up loose ends
Something asks for a final, finishing touch
Look to your achievements
Mercury retrogrades in your sign this week (13th) and heads backs towards your mysterious 12th where we also have a new Moon (12th). This is a clear signal from the cosmos to follow your insight when it comes to anything that has been nudging at your subconscious for a while.
We are now days away from the Sun’s arrival in your sign and your new cycle. Yes, the Sun enters Capricorn but the word ‘solstice’ actually refers to the fact that on the summer and winter solstice, the Sun actually appears to stand still in the sky. The Sun is directly above the Tropic of Capricorn in the Southern Hemisphere on this day. There is a pause from our perspective, and then the Sun will appear to now move north towards the Tropic of Cancer in the Northern Hemisphere.
This week is asking you to heed what is giving you ‘pause for thought’. Don’t forget – Pluto is preparing to leave your sign, bringing to an end the most definitive transformation process of your lifetime. So, pause, look at the changes that have occurred and then with fierce honesty, confront any loose ends or anything that still needs releasing. The final residue can now be let go ahead of the new and dynamic phase that is coming in.
Take care of that final, outstanding issue during this retro phase. You have the courage to confront it and inspired action to deal with it. Ahead lies lightness – and freedom.
In a nutshell: You’ve come so far but do you appreciate just how much you’ve accomplished or changed? Take time out under this Mercury retrograde to congratulate yourself. One final adjustment or loose end to tie up – and a major cycle of your life completes.

17 Dec 2023 Sun in Sagittarius square Neptune in Pisces (12th to 3rd)
AQUARIUSFriendships are a big deal
Reclaim past treasure
What you no longer need is effortlessly shed
The new Moon in Sagittarius and your 11th house ranks right up there in importance with the new Moon in your 1st and the one in Leo and your 7th. Groups and goals feature. Not only that, this new Moon sets the tone for both your social life and your ability to crush that goal into reality serves of bite-sized pieces.
Mercury retrograde in your 12th from the 13th will move back into your 11th shortly. So, don’t be surprised if part of the new also involves a revival. You may get the band back together – almost literally, when it comes to reunions with old friends or even colleagues now. The new you are about to embark on has its roots in the past and old acquaintances show you that they have not been forgotten.
With Pluto about to re-enter your sign, anything which no longer serves that future path will be swept away. So as well as ‘Hello, again’ – a few goodbyes may feature. Do be philosophical if this occurs. It’s nothing you’ve not outgrown if you are honest about it.
A down-to-earth moment involving a decision or even your money sees you having to leave that ivory tower and deal with something mundane this week. Yes, rewards can also stem from your past or the efforts you’ve put in. But around the 17th you find yourself confronted with the truth about how someone else sees or values you. Yes, you’re above the petty. But you’re not about to keep on giving when nothing is coming back the other way. Friendship is currency. Spend or save wisely.
In a nutshell: Friendship is your most valuable asset thanks to the new Moon in your 11th this week. Ensure those you call friends value you in the same way. When it comes to that goal – its roots may lie in your past. Expect a revival – and a reunion.

PISCESEscape the dream and deal with the real
What’s your success strategy in work and love?
Take the initiative
Ahead of 2024, start thinking about those ambitions and what you want to achieve. Or where you want to go next, Pisces. You have plenty of time to refine those plans. This week hands you a new Moon in your status-setting 10th. You’re feeling the desire to achieve or go places in the coming year.
Take the time now to review your path to date. Is it working for you? Is it rewarding enough – not just in financial terms but in emotional satisfaction as well? There’s no point in selling your soul to attain worldly success if it leaves you feeling strangely empty. And what about that work/life balance? Mercury backwards in your 11th (it will re-enter your 10th shortly), reminds you that a social life and relationships form an important part of any success story. There’s no point in attaining a grand prize if you’ve no-one to celebrate with.
Ensure your path is the one you would choose for yourself. Or choose again if you were starting out now. If not, take time to research and refine and go deep into what success looks like and needs to deliver for you. Over the long term.
And yes, this also includes the kind of partner you want to be involved with over the long term. If you are waiting for a commitment from someone, with Saturn now in your sign it may be time to ask them how they see your future together? The Sun’s square to ruler Neptune (17th) tells you that you can no longer afford to live in a dream world when it comes to what you want to have, do or attain. Time is precious. You don’t have any to waste. In business and in love. And factoring that in is all part of a success strategy, Pisces.
In a nutshell: Time to look at where you want to get to and what you want to achieve for your future, Pisces. This includes the future of a union for some. And your career path or calling for others. Time to refine the dream and deal with the reality.

Weekend Tarot Reading – Pick A Card
Fancy some intuitive insight into the weekend? Take a moment to look at the backs of the Tarot cards and see if any of them shout pick me!
Tarot card one – 2 of Wands
You’re contemplating what is important to you this weekend. There could be a super offer coming your way. At first, you might look at the opportunity and think it doesn’t amount to much!
The Two of Wands invites you to pause for a moment and consider what lights that inner fire of yours. This weekend is all about pinpointing your passions, setting goals, and getting ready to conquer your world.
Now, about that offer sneaking into your scene it might seem like just another blip on your radar, but hold on – take a second look. This opportunity could be the unexpected plot twist that turns your weekend into a sensation. The Two of Wands is cheering you on to seize the day and explore the uncharted territories of possibility. This seemingly small chance could be the beginning of a grand adventure.
Tarot Card Two -The Lovers
The Lovers card is multi-dimensional; it doesn’t just reflect romantic love. Take a wee look at the card. What do you see? What jumps out at you? It’s very revealing where we choose to put our focus, as where we put our passion creates our experience. With the Lovers card, there’s a promise of renewed passion. Passion can take many forms. You might find yourself falling in love, or perhaps you fall in love with your partner all over again. You could even fall in love with a project that makes your heart sing. Enjoy it, trust it, and share it!
Tarot Card Three-9 of Wands
Beloved, did you go through a painful time and lose your trust? Is there someone around you with whom you have built up a protective wall? Whilst defending ourselves is good falling into the trap of being defensive can disempower us. It is time to liberate yourself. To set firm boundaries and get back in charge of your life. You are the divine, unique soul that deserves to make free choices.
You may have been through the wars and suffered energetic blows. You’ve fought for yourself and probably for others. Perhaps you fell deep into the swamp of inner conflict and are now a Goddess of self-protection?
You’re a survivor and stronger than anyone could know. Right now is a time to reflect on your defenses and your wounds. Is the energy war long gone and yet you still anticipate danger? Are you blocking others out or overreacting because of the past?
10 is the number of completions, and so the 9 of wands reveals that the battle is nearly won, and now is the time to plan the future. A future where you feel safe to express your vulnerability, a future where you can frolic free. You have done well, and the rewards should be abundant.
Congratulations, wonderful one. You are about to arrive at a peak experience. You are approaching a milestone, a reward, a moment of ‘all is well’. Celebrate the moment, breathe in your victory, and revel in your well-deserved arrival.
The World reminds us that it’s all just a dance, and we should step lightly. We dance with the entire cycle of existence to different rhythms at different times, flowing with all of the energies that swirl around us. The World tells us that you might be at the end of one chapter, but a whole new book is about to start.
Tarot Card Five – 7 of Cups
Are you dreaming about the future? Good news! There’s a host of wild and wonderful options in front of you. The 7 of Cups is associated with imagination, daydreaming, and potential. It’s a crossroads of choices or a time of decision-making.
Look at all those different things popping out of the cups. Each represents a different possibility for you.
Be careful though. There’s a need for self-reflection and discernment. It is a reminder that although life can be full of options and opportunities, careful consideration is necessary to make the right choice.
Of course it’s essential to recognize that no single option is necessarily the right one and to be aware of the consequences of each choice. The 7 of Cups encourages you to make a decision that is true to your own heart.
Oh, and your creativity is on fire right now.
Hooray! You can now order my Tarot deck and in-depth Tarot book. I put my heart into every page. Big love, Michele.

Your Forecast for Venus in Scorpio – River Deep, Mountain High
Your Forecast for Venus in Scorpio – River Deep, Mountain High
There’s nothing shy, tentative or fearful about Venus in Scorpio – which it enters on December 4. Venus is now moving quickly through the sky. For those Venus ruled signs who suffered the most during the Venus retrograde from July – September this year – Taurus and Libra, as well as the Leos in whose sign this took place, this will very much feel like making up for lost time.
Venus will transit the entire sign of Scorpio in December. And move into Sagittarius just before the year ends. For Scorpios and Taurus, this will bring you peak desires and experiences around personal desires and partnerships. If you are one of the other water signs – Cancer and Pisces, then Venus will trine your natal chart factors at some point during this month.. Bringing you easy going, free-flowing feels and opportunities.
Venus in Scorpio is sexy and emboldened. It asks for what it wants. And knows if the answer is no it was never going to get it anyway. It then moves on to someone who will say yes. It ditches pink and frills. It loves red and black, corsets, leather and anything rock and roll. It is about the heights and going deep. It doesn’t do the mehs or anything vanilla.
Scorpio rules power money, shared assets and resources, what you owe and are owed, empowerment and control, death, taxes, investments, loans and yes, that bedroom. How you work one, some, all of these is about to feature. And how sensual and powerful you feel doing so. Embrace this, no matter what your sign.
ARIES
Venus in your 8th is seeking that eternal flame. And will go wherever it believes this is, Aries. Yes, the top of the mountain or the deep dive to find it. This Venus is demanding an all-in, intense, transcendent, passionate connection. Or nothing at all. Because if this Venus can’t find it, it will entirely channel all that desire and creative heat into something else. That creative project or money-making venture for instance. And that’s more, it won’t waste time yearning for what it can’t have right now or which is unavailable. It’s focused on its intentions. Power on with Venus in here.
Of course, if someone snags your attention now they had better be prepared to meet you with equal intensity. Otherwise, you’ll quickly lose interest. Thinking about anyone born under your sign may seem strange to feel shy, powerless or lacking confidence. But it can and does happen. If this is you, Aries, the good news is that Venus in here plugs you back into that lost resource. You see you have, and always have had, the power to make the changes you seek or take back control in a situation.
Venus rules your bank account and this is your ‘other’ money house. That scorching focus may be directed towards your assets and resources, making more of them, gaining more or utilizing them in better ways. Those bedroom manoeuvrers? Lit and inventive. Others may see someone offer you a bonus or access to something you’ve needed. Venus opens the vault door. And says: take what you need.
TAURUS
Ruler Venus is now in its ruling house in your chart. Continuing your yearly love and partnership peak and picking up where the Sun left off when it exited this house last month.
It’s an extended yearly love-in, Taurus. A time when you can deepen and enhance that closeness. Or make empowered changes around partnerships and close relationships of all kinds. Powerful, positive and authentic moves on your part bring about a shift or pivot in a key dynamic. Or even your relationship status if you are single.
Yes, this Venus transit is one of attraction for singles. Or even for settled seeking a work, collaborative or new friendship. Enhanced benefits can spring from existing unions. A powerful rediscovery or affirmation of what you share. This Venus also enhances financial and career prospects with a knock-on and positive effect on your bank account for others.
This Venus hands you discernment and the right to be choosy if you are single. You know you own it, Taurus. And are confident now to gently pass over any candidates for your heart that don’t measure up. You no longer fall for just anything. And are willing to wait for what’s right. If you have settled in the past, there may be an accounting to be done now. Again, any decisions you make come from empowerment.
You’ll be at your most open, generous, and giving to those you love and care about under this transit. And your most honest when it comes to your true feelings. Closeness comes from communication. Love flows from creativity no matter your status. Look to how you can create this and it will act as a magnet to draw love to you.
GEMINI
Look deep into what hands you satisfaction daily with Venus in your 6th. At the end of the month, Venus will land in its ruling 7th, bringing you a second love and partnership peak of the year. Which will rocket your forward into 2024 and also pave the way for Jupiter’s arrival in your sign in May.
This Venus is about the everyday kind of loving. And this includes loving what you do. What you pour your time and energy into. Your habits and routine and how they support you with enhancing your well-being in so many small ways which make up the bigger picture. Venus in here can deliver monetary rewards and bonuses from what you do. You may feel validated, valued, and supported by your co-workers or work environment. If you want to change that job situation, wait until the new year to begin, however. Look at what you need to be doing and what role fits you and your lifestyle, skills and long term needs.
This house also rules pets, and do remember, a pet is for life and not just for Christmas. Venus in your 6th is about immersing yourself in or creating a life of meaning, everyday satisfaction, and beauty. It’s about the divine treasure you will discover in the details. Dive into these. Venus tells you work shouldn’t be a drudge, whether paid or unpaid. We all need to do what we need to do. But we can arrange it so we meet it with joy when we see how changing it up can bring us benefits that ripple out into other areas. Head for the feel good factor with this Venus. Oh – and don’t over-indulge Gemini. There’s more than one kind of hangover if you do!
CANCER
Venus in your 5th is one of the most powerful pleasure cycles of the year. That it coincides with the holiday season is just a bonus for you. Venus is designer Santa in this house. Fit and wearing Dior. Driving a Ferrari sleigh. And it says you have been very, very nice indeed.
No hiding your light with Venus in here, Cancer. Be prepared to burn bright and at your most intense. No-one can miss that radiance which should see you at the centre of attention and act like your own version of the Great Attractor right up until the end of the month.
Have you been worried about anything of late? If so, the arrival of Venus in here turns the tide back. And releases you onto the shores of carefree paradise again. You discover solutions. Like psychic messages in a bottle which hands you the solutions you’ve been seeking.
Dress to attract and stand out. Go bold and lit. Jewel brightness works for you. Even if you’d usually opt for black or pastels. You can add a splash of it if you are not yet ready to go all the way. And if so you’ll quickly discover it works. And this leads to the confidence to go further.
Singles could draw that potential lover in. Gifts, invitations, lucky breaks, good times flowing from your children – you may feel carefree and infused with the spirit of the season. Hopeful joy and optimism rule. Others pour their overflowing creativity and joie de vive into a personal project – from art, that social media feed, turning themselves into their own work of art – whatever you undertake draws attention to you now, Cancer. Things are cooking in your soul kitchen. Don’t allow any worries about what others may think to make you turn out anything half-baked now. Go big, rich and brilliant. Or go home.
LEO
Venus broadcasts beautiful warnings in your 4th, Leo. If people come to visit now they won’t want to leave. That’s the kind of home or welcome you’re creating with Venus in this house. So long as you are prepared for that – be those guests coming for a dinner party (cater extra) or to stay over the holidays – you’ll know they are having the best time simply because of their reluctance to go home.
You are the host with the most. Property matters are enhanced with Venus in here. As is your ability to deck your halls in a way that enchants and welcomes. Do be aware that Venus is in interior design mode now. And does not adhere to budgets unless closely monitored. This Venus wants only the best. And yes, this extends to what you serve. The best, most lush and sensual food and beverages delight the senses. No wonder nobody wants to leave.
This Venus promises soul satisfaction. As does treating sex like a banquet too. There’s a deeper, hidden message to be explored here if you are ready for it. This house rules your home, family and what gives you physical and emotional security. But it also rules you path in life and the life you create for yourself. If you have your Jimmy Choos firmly on the right one, you’ll know it for certain as you enjoy rewards and benefits. If not – the good news is that by the end of January you will have a plan and a vision of a brighter, more sustaining new one that acts like a setting for the jewel of your talents and purpose is. For now, express the love via your surroundings and those who share it, Leo.
VIRGO
Let’s talk love. But we’re no longer scratching the surface of this subject, Virgo. Venus in your 3rd house demands a deep exploration of the feels. Outing those wishes, desires and yes, even those fears. Honest communication is what brings about understanding now. Don’t mince your words, hold back or even sugar coat it. That’s doesn’t mean you’re abandoning diplomacy. Just that you no longer fear being judged when it comes to your emotions. Venus in here lets go of self-censure. And yes, the truth will set you and others free.
Words are magic spells. You know this being Mercury ruled. News, a conversation or even a Hello could change everything for the better. Perhaps it is you who needs to have that opening line to hand. Or send that message winging out there. If so, if you’ve been lost for words, Venus hands you the most magical and creative mix of them. Others are buying what you are saying – or selling now.
Yes, this is your house of the internet and apps. So, don’t be surprised if a lot of the talk stems from this. As well as opportunities. This Venus is also in major repair mode in this house in your chart. Not many astrologers realise the true power of Venus in Scorpio for Virgos. Venus mends broken hearts while in here. It fixes disappointments in work and business.
Just bear in mind that the way it works may not be via sending that old lover back. Or by handing you the position or promotion you should have had. Instead, it may come via someone new offering an opportunity. Either a personal one or one that leads to something more rewarding for you. Again, a contact or conversation begins the healing. Get talking without barriers, Virgo.
LIBRA
Venus leaves your sign but in its ruling 2nd, feels just as good, Libra. You’re after something constant and lasting now. Nothing fleeting or ephemeral for you. Whether in love or income. You’re weighing the worth of it to you over the long term.
You are more than willing to invest whole-heartedly now. Be it in that position or that relationship. But you are also measuring carefully the rewards or take-out against what you put in. And also whether the other party is equally invested.
Venus in here often opens up a fresh source of income, extra income or a bonus. If so, you have earned it as this house is the one of what we make rather than windfalls (your 5th) or payouts (your 8th). Of course, these can occur but you would need transits in these houses occurring at the same time. An astrologer can explain. So take it what you receive, you have worked for in some way. Or taken a long position on it with the love, care, and attention you have shown it.
This is a house of quiet, subtle attraction. Yes, this can bring in someone new for singles as this house rules relationships, which we can consider assets to us in some way. Just be aware that it may take a while to blossom and don’t be in a hurry. The same goes for that opportunity on the work front. Be patient. And be discriminating. If you think it may not have long term potential – don’t ignore that thought. You have so much to give and your assets are valuable, Libra. Invest them wisely from here on in.
SCORPIO
Opposites attract under this Venus, Scorpio. It brings the breath of new beginnings. But also draws to you what you need to balance something out. Why? This Venus transit through your 1st will feel different due to the fact that your 7th and Venus’s ruling sign of Taurus, is all-powerful in your chart due to Jupiter and Uranus in here. So, as Venus moves through your sign and opposes these, it will bring you what you need – the opposite to what you think you want. But oh so right when you recognise it.
Do look beyond the outer packaging. And don’t get too attached to what you believe you want, Scorpio. If so, you may miss out on something ultra special that despite appearances to the contrary, is a bespoke order designed with you in mind. This may arrive in a surprising, unexpected, sudden, bolt from the blue way. This could even be a who as opposed to a what.
Something you have been hoping or waiting for could arrive between now and the end of the year. Just take it that cosmic order has been registered and is being prepared. While you wait, this is your second chance to change your appearance, face, body, style, image, brand, message or look. You may have already begun this during the Sun’s transit of your 1st. Now you enhance it further or fine-tune it. Ensure the outer you reflects your desire to attract something new and different. You do that by not being your old self. Then, wait in anticipation for what answers this desire.
SAGITTARIUS
Secret Santa Venus enters your 12th before arriving in your sign later this month. So, what are you wishing for that you’re not talking about, Sag? Or even admitting to yourself that you want? This is your opportunity to look at whether that dream is actually impossible. Or if in fact, there is another hidden path towards it you may not have been able to see until now.
You may have felt that you are off to a slow start this birthday season due to ruler Jupiter retrograde until December 31. You will make up for this as Venus will land in your 1st just two days before Jupiter heads direct again. So, see this as a time to get very clear about what it is you now want, to reclaim your lost hopes and dreams, and to discover the way to make them real. And yes, you may opt to nurture these in your downtime or keep them under wraps for now.
This is your house of the past and Venus in here shows you what facets of that are worth salvaging. And what you need to now consign to Once Upon a Time. You’ll understand where you stood in your own way when it came to getting what you wanted. Or attracting the kind of love you desired. You’ll release blame – whether this is directed at yourself and others. And feel the flow restored as you move through this process. Resentment keeps us stuck. Forgiveness – and self-forgiveness, moves us forward. You are free. Good karma follows.
Sometimes this Venus sees that past love visit in person. This can be a welcome, sentimental journey as in the trip we take back home for the holidays. Or one filled with questions or potential closure if it involves a past lover. Understand if someone reappears it may simply be to close a door you may wonder about, but now find you have no desire to discover what’s beyond it. Only revive the dream which sustains, Sag.
CAPRICORN
Venus in your 11th offers the good time which can be had by all. Venus in this house is the essence of the party season. Deck the halls and get ready to be jolly. And don’t be a Grinch, Cappy.
Your goals for the coming year may also feature. And if you encounter new connections during this cycle, keep their contact details as they may have a role to play in aiding you to accomplish them. Actually, in the spirit of the season, if you are in a position to assist someone in turn, the gift of giving flows both ways. Expect at some point for karma to pay it forward in ‘24.
Usually, I tell people that Venus in their 11th is all about the love of friends and not to hope for encounters under the mistletoe or your answer to cuffing season blues to appear. This Venus is different, however. This is because your 5th house of love (Taurus and Venus’s ruling sign), contains both Jupiter and Uranus. It exerts an all-powerful attraction factor that can see you in the right place at the right time (or the right swipe), and encountering the right one.
A goal may actually come to fruition. Or you get what you wished for. It’s a time to let loose, find that perfect orbit and immerse yourself in the festive spirit. Do issue invitations of your own as well as accept those which come your way. The more people who you engage with or invite, the more your sphere enlarges and the more stars gravitate towards you, Capricorn. Expand your influence with Venus this December.
AQUARIUS
Somehow if someone asks you if you’ve been naughty or nice, you’ll delight in telling them you’re naughty. Very, very naughty. I could bore you with the traditional interpretation of Venus in your 10th, Aquarius. But you deserve more than that. This Venus comes across initially as ice cool. But Snow White it’s not. No matter if on the surface its all business or calculated double entendres – which is its way of flirting.
If it manifests in human form it entices and spices things up for you. It likes the long drawn out flirt (refer to those double meanings which have you wondering did you read that right?!), doesn’t like to get too handsy in public, and may go for traditional suits or lots of black. Or did I just describe your love modus operandi right now, Aquarius? As Venus in here can have you changing your usual tactic for something so much more intriguing. For powerful results once behind closed doors. Very, very naughty ones. Yes, this delights your partner if you’re settled. Role-playing and fantasy may spice things up. Let loose.
Now for a return to our usual programming and the more traditional take on Venus in your 10th. Recognition, rewards and career accolades. Venus enhances your professional reputation and your status and public image. If you are not working in the traditional sense, you may be the beneficiary of your partner’s success now. Or bask in your contribution to this. Somehow Venus singles you out for some kind of recognition. Or worship as that bedroom or boardroom deity. No matter if you are naughty – or just extremely nice.
PISCES
Need something heart-starting? Breathtaking? More adventurous? You’re up for the grand love gestures, the starry eyed romance, and the wild magic of the unknown now Venus is in your 9th.
The path you are on could take an unexpected detour. Are you willing to go down it? You’re also in the mood to experiment and explore. If you are single, this may translate to attracting someone different. If you’ve fallen for the suit and tie lover in the past, you’re now head-over-heels for the surfer/hippie. Or vice versa. Someone from a different country, ethnicity or belief system opens your mind, not just your heart to so many possibilities out there.
The world always comes knocking on our door somehow when Venus moves through this house in our charts. Yes, we may travel during this transit. There’s a restlessness within us that will always surface during this time. Whether we are single or settled. It needs us to answer as it tells us that we need something more. Sometimes people can mistake what this really means. They mistake this for something absent or missing from their current relationship and throw the baby out with the bathwater. It is rarely about that. But if you suspect it is a symptom of a longer term dissatisfaction, take your time and try to come up with solutions first. You may need something new to feed your soul in the form of a non-human passion to explore. Or that you and the other can go on a journey of exploration together. And reignite your joint sense of passion as you do.
Answer the call to adventure. Leave your couch and that boxset and what’s familiar behind you. Between now and the end of the year you’ll be presented with a solution, an opportunity or an opening to a new world of experience.
