You might want to mark down Sunday, December 15, in your calendar. To start, messenger Mercury ends its retrograde and goes direct. This further reduces misunderstandings. It also means that travel should not be too miserable. If any exes have been pestering you, or, if you’ve been pestering any exes, it’s also time to let that be. The sky also lights up with a Gemini full moon in your 4th House on Sunday, December 15. At times, full moons can be a little anxiety-inducing, so it’s a reminder to take it easy and relax on this date.
The sun moves into Capricorn on Saturday, December 21, which is the Winter Solstice, aka the shortest day of the year. It’s another night that you may want to spend relaxing at home with loved ones. This day is also Yule, which you can think of as a witchy Christmas. Many Christmas traditions, such as decorating trees and lighting candles, are said to come from Yule. For the next few weeks, the sun is in your friendship-oriented 11th House, so remember to continue to make time for chosen family.
Chiron, the wounded healer, goes direct in your 12th House on Sunday, December 29. This shift further adds to the spirituality of December. It’s going to be a very intuitive month. Trust your gut about people during December.
December wraps up with a new moon, the lunation associated with fresh starts on Monday, December 30, in your community-oriented 11th House. If you haven’t yet, try to use this date, which occurs just before New Year’s Eve, to see your friends. Have fun, whether you go out partying or relax together at home, and we’ll see you in 2025.
