After a particularly busy start to December, the air will calmer in the first half of this week, giving us a chance to process our feelings – and prepare for what lies ahead.
Next Thursday, when love-ruling Venus opposes fiery Mars, we may be tempted to stir up some romantic drama. Singles can take advantage of this passionate aspect to blow off steam and improve their flirting skills; you may even notice sparks starting to fly with someone special. Meanwhile, those in a relationship might find that this energy inspires them to heat things up with their partner and really make a night of it. Yet it is important that everyone remains aware of the way they interact with others under this intoxicating influence. If someone threatens to cross your boundaries, don’t be afraid to reinforce them.
The atmosphere could cool down a bit as chatty Mercury in optimistic Sagittarius sextiles affectionate Venus in friendly Aquarius on Friday. This easy-going aspect will encourage us to let our worries melt away, and will contribute to the success of any holiday parties hosted or attended. At work, you will find that this influence puts you in the mood to solve problems and collaborate with your colleagues. If you’ve been waiting for the right time to ask for a professional favor, this could also be an ideal opportunity to do so.
Then on Sunday, the last full moon of the year will arrive in social Gemini, calling us to uplift those around us and celebrate each other’s unique strengths. Enjoy cherishing all the feelings of togetherness this lunation brings. Be careful not to let your emotions become too entangled with someone else’s, as the moon will also square delusional Neptune in sensitive Pisces. It is wise not to take anything too seriously and to avoid getting involved in conflicts that do not really involve you.
Finally, if you’ve been struggling to navigate Mercury’s current retrograde cycle, you may finally get some relief when the planet of communications stations moves into intelligent Sagittarius later on Sunday. As the messenger planet begins to move forward through the mutable fire sign, our collective mental fog may clear, sharpening our wits and making it easier for us to get to the point when we speak. Just be sure to monitor all written correspondence through the remainder of 2024, as errors are still possible until Mercury leaves its post-retrograde shadow period in early January.
Here is your horoscope for the week of Monday, December 9, 2024.
You’re not one to shy away from a little competition, Aries. Still, you’d be wise to mind your manners if you notice things getting a little heated in your social circle this week. Give others a chance to shine and save your energy to stand up for others when you notice injustice happening. This can also be an excellent week to ask for feedback from people you trust about projects or ideas you’ve been thinking about lately. Your friends have a wealth of knowledge to share, and if you’re willing to listen, you can end up creating something really exciting.
Have you been burning the candle at both ends lately, Taurus? If so, this week is a good opportunity to put your push-and-go attitude aside and focus on restoring your work-life balance. By spending some time listening to your inner voice, you can figure out how to refocus your attention on what really matters. Meanwhile, you may notice that everyone seems to have an opinion about what you should do with your money right now. Go ahead and listen to what they have to say – just be discerning about whose financial advice you actually accept, and don’t just listen to the loudest voice in the room.
Do you feel compelled to learn or experience something completely new, Gemini? Communicating your ideas to a loved one can help point you in the right direction and allow you to overcome any self-doubt you may have. So go ahead and confide in the people closest to you this week; their support just might inspire you to take a giant leap of faith. Then you might find it helpful to take some time this weekend to reflect on your recent career achievements. If nagging insecurities or feelings of imposter syndrome arise during the process, do your best to push them aside and remind yourself that you deserve success.
Don’t try to get ahead of yourself, Cancer. If a professional opportunity comes your way this week that seems particularly promising, you would be wise to run it through people you trust before you agree to anything. There may be hidden liabilities that only an objective party can see, so try to be open to their feedback – and beware of your short fuse. Remember that your loved ones are there to support you and can help you make choices that align with your values. Then you may get a flash of insight over the weekend that you shouldn’t ignore. Seize this moment to take action.
Does something feel off at work lately, Leo? Maybe it’s time to try some new tactics, especially when it comes to navigating your professional relationships. Taking a step back to listen can go a long way, so this week do your best to avoid speaking over others and focus on giving your employees more space to share their ideas. Turning your attention back to your passion projects can also be a great way to redirect your energy during this time. Have fun brainstorming and let your creative ideas run wild. Who knows? One of them could even lead to a promising new business venture.
Have you been feeling exhausted lately, Virgo? While your natural work ethic is admirable – and certainly valuable – it’s possible that the promise of success through hard work has dampened your sensitive spirit. So this week you may want to take a step back to recalibrate and reassess your ambitions. Ask yourself: Are the goals you’ve been working toward aligned with your soul’s true desire? This can also be a wonderful time to practice gratitude for the gifts you already possess in your life. Focus on reducing busywork so you can spend more time with the people who really matter.
Feel like flirting, Libra? Regardless of your relationship status, you may feel especially compelled this week to flaunt your charms and let your thirst for romance fuel your actions. Your playful attitude is sure to brighten up any room you enter, so have fun striking up conversations and dancing it all out – just try not to lose sight of how you come across. Otherwise you could unconsciously take the lead, while you are actually meant to follow. Then a promising new job opportunity might present itself over the weekend and get you excited. Try not to think too much and go after what you want.
Does your need for privacy match your desire for professional and public recognition, Scorpio? If so, this week could be a perfect opportunity to reflect on how these conflicting desires arise and to redress any imbalances between these areas of your life. Take this moment to make adjustments and work on setting more manageable expectations for yourself. Then over the weekend you may feel compelled to pay more attention to your finances and talk about how you can build a stronger foundation. Conversations about safety will flourish when you keep your loved ones at the center of your goals.
When you love something, you want the world to know all about it, Sagittarius. And after looking inward over the past few weeks, your powerful voice will likely be eager to strike up a conversation. But be careful not to oversell your actions this week, as your enthusiasm may inadvertently turn some people off. Remember: Things like wellness practices, diet, and routines are deeply personal, so don’t be discouraged if people don’t jump on the bandwagon right away. Instead, show others the results you achieve and wait for them to inquire about your secrets.
Have confidence in yourself, Capricorn. If you feel like your existing responsibilities are holding you back from achieving your professional dreams lately, keep in mind that you have almost supernatural time management skills that can help you achieve your goals. Just make sure you also think about the pace you want to set for yourself so that you can actually enjoy the journey and avoid burnout. In the meantime, you may feel driven to look back on the work you created this year. Write down your most notable achievements and give yourself a chance to appreciate them before designing new dreams to pursue in 2025.
Your unique perspective and creativity have long inspired your Aquarius friends and family. And this week, the conditions are perfect to further explore your artistic desires and bring beauty into the world. Use this moment to consider all possibilities and express your boldest ideas without hesitation. Then you can feel ready to sit back and relax as the party season gets underway this weekend. Enjoy letting loose with your favorite people and dancing away your worries. Would you rather keep it quiet? This can also be an excellent time to do something special, just for you.
Don’t hesitate to listen to your inner voice, Pisces. This week could make some excellent points when it comes to certain career decisions. Take this opportunity to think carefully about all the choices before you and gain new clarity. Then over the weekend you can get motivated to change gears and focus your attention back on your home world. Go ahead and carve out some time in your schedule to reconnect with family and loved ones. Doing so may even open your eyes to your full potential and encourage you to keep pushing forward toward your professional goals.
