Welcome to December, everyone! This month will help us wrap up 2025 on a clear-sighted and capable note, erasing any confusion from recent months and helping us to set impressive yet attainable goals for next year.
One of the most pivotal moments of December arrives early in the month on the 4th, when the Gemini Full Moon–the last Full Moon of 2025–lights up the skies. This lunation will put an emphasis on connections and communications, so some surprising revelations could arrive in the days to follow. Considering Mercury, the ruler of Gemini, was retrograde in November but is now moving forward, this will help the energy flow in a positive direction.
You may feel the effects of this lunation especially strongly on the 6th and 7th, when Mercury will trine Jupiter and Saturn respectively, helping you come up with new ideas, projects, and partnerships that can withstand the test of time while also proving well worth the effort. Since Gemini is indeed the sign of the Twins, there has rarely been a better occasion to double-up in pursuit of your ambitions.
Next, on the 10th, mystical Neptune will turn direct in Pisces. Neptune began this retrograde phase back in July in Aries, but backed up into Pisces for one final visit in October, and will remain here until January before returning to the sign of the Ram, which will mark the last time we will experience Neptune in Pisces for roughly a century and a half. Neptune in Pisces is a very fantastical combination, but it also loves to give up control and lose itself in mesmerizing experiences; after all, it’s no surprise that the rise of social media began at the same time as Neptune first entered Pisces over a decade ago. The next few months could see us struggling to discover new ways of spending our time and energy, which will become even more prevalent when Neptune marches into Aries early next year.
Mercury will move on from Scorpio to Sagittarius on the 11th, after entering then retrograding out of the sign of the Archer last month. Sagittarius is known as the truth-teller of the zodiac, and while this energy may have caused you to stick your foot in your mouth more than once in November, December is much better equipped to help you benefit from this combination, rather than getting bogged down by it. The next couple of weeks will be wonderful for diving into new ideas and new concepts that can bring a lot of color and flavor to your life, so be willing to explore the unknown, as it will prove especially rewarding throughout the rest of 2025.
Action planet Mars enters Capricorn on the 15th, marking the first of three celestial bodies that will enter the sign of the Sea Goat throughout December. Mars operates extremely well in Capricorn, as it helps us work steadily and realistically towards our goals, all while making it easy to cut out the excess noise and focus only on what truly matters. Indeed, we can become so eager to see progress during this cycle that we can occasionally run the risk of burnout, so it is important to remember to make space for rest and relaxation. Mars will remain here until late January, so there is no need to rush in order to take advantage of this cycle.
The 19th hosts a special Sagittarius New Moon, inspiring us to seek out new horizons. This lunation is wonderful for embarking on new adventures and taking chances that we wouldn’t normally take, while also expanding our minds in the process. However, this Moon will be forming a square to Neptune, which could cause us to be a little loose in our approach, and perhaps a little vague or unrealistic about what it is we want to achieve. It is all well and good to be imaginative and creative, but try to keep at least one foot on the ground as you embark on your next great expedition.
The energy takes another turn for the capable and competent as the Sun enters Capricorn on the 21st, reminding us that just because the year is wrapping up, doesn’t mean we can’t make a few power-plays before 2025 comes to a close. With the energy of the recent New Moon still permeating the skies, we’ll be eager to make tangible moves forward, and feel like our efforts are indeed based in reality, with the potential to bear impressive fruit. If you don’t particularly want to burn the midnight oil before next year arrives, you can at least use the rest of December to make resolutions and plans for what projects you would like to initiate next year, giving yourself a head start over the competition.
With the Sun and Mars both occupying this capable sign, we will all feel more driven to pursue our goals and make general improvements to our lives, but the good news is that loving Venus will also enter Capricorn on the 24th, bringing a sense of ease and grace to this otherwise ambitious energy. Venus will ensure that we are rewarded for our efforts, and although she doesn’t operate at her most luxuriating and feminine in this somewhat hard-headed sign, she will still bestow her bounty to the best of her ability.
We may all crave a social and joyful New Year’s Eve, as the intuitive Moon will sparkle in quick-witted Gemini, while the Sun and Venus will be closely conjunct one another, blending their energies in a lovely fashion, with Mars also nearby to lend a passionate touch. This could signal an especially romantic start to 2026, so whether you’re happily coupled or single and looking to mingle, you should have no trouble finding someone lovely to smooch when the ball finally drops.
It’s the last month of the year, so make it count!
Important Transits in December 2025
- December 6th — Mercury trine Jupiter
We can all do with a dose of positive thinking as Mercury aligns with lucky Jupiter in a harmonious trine. After spending much of last month retrograde, Mercury is now moving forward, so ideas and connections established now can prove especially progressive and promising. This is a great day to be an optimist.
- December 7th — Mercury trine Saturn
Careful consideration can yield useful results as Mercury trines Saturn, helping us identify the necessary steps required in order to reach our own personal finish line. Conversations and brainstorming sessions will be especially fruitful, and we can untangle any mental snafus we may have encountered recently.
- December 8th — Mars square Saturn
We all feel like we’re hitting a wall as Mars bumps up against icy Saturn, freezing us in our tracks. Progress will stall, and relations will be fraught, so avoid trying to make moves at this time because getting ahead isn’t an easy or realistic option under such stars. Don’t pound on a wall, hoping to turn it into a door.
- December 10th — Neptune Direct
After spending the last five months spinning backward first through fiery Aries, then dreamy Pisces, Neptune will finally turn direct and help us rub the sleep out of our eyes and see through the fog ahead that much more clearly. It won’t happen overnight, but the general confusion that has held so many of us back will finally ease its grip, and we’ll be able to take surer steps in the right direction.
- December 10th — Mercury oppose Uranus
There has rarely been a better time to think outside of the box as Mercury opposes Uranus. This transit can feel shocking and bring unexpected encounters into our life, but the best way to handle them is to remain flexible and open-minded. The tried-and-true is not relevant today!
- December 11th — Mercury trine Neptune
We are all more empathetic and altruistic as Mercury aligns with soothing Neptune, easing tensions and encouraging us to release hurt or anger. Neptune is also a very inspirational planet, so this would be a wonderful time to let the Muse out to play. We can all come up with new dreams under this angle.
- December 11th — Mercury enters Sagittarius
It is time to speak our minds freely as Mercury returns to Sagittarius after last month’s temporary visit that saw it enter then retrograde back out of the sign of the Archer. This time, we can embark on new mental ventures and initiate new connections that will open our eyes to new possibilities. It is time to look beyond the horizon!
- December 13th — Mercury sextile Pluto
A little intensity can be a good thing as Mercury sextiles Pluto, helping us dig deep in order to find solutions and blow away any dust that might be obscuring the truth. New connections forged at this time can feel especially intense, but in a way that is inspiring for both parties.
- December 14th — Mars square Neptune
Our energy can plummet and our drive can spin out of control as Mars squares off Neptune. This alignment can feel messy, like someone throwing a bucket of water over a roaring fire, then still expecting it to create heat. This entanglement can cause us to misdirect our energy, so it is important to be extra cautious about where we dedicate our efforts.
- December 15th — Mars enters Capricorn
It is time to do things by the book as Mars marches into can-do Capricorn for the next six weeks. This cycle is terrific for working towards your goals and seeing real progress and results, so don’t be shy about rolling up your sleeves and putting your nose to the grindstone. In fact, Mars in Capricorn can push us so hard that it is important to remember to take breaks and relax, or else you could burn out!
- December 16th — Sun square Saturn
The Universe will be sending us all roadblocks today, so don’t let a difficult time get you down, especially since it is only a temporary transit. The Sun is forming a combative square with karmic Saturn, so there will be quite a bit of push-pull before the rubber can meet the road. Take a deep breath and be patient; obstacles will evaporate soon enough.
- December 20th — Sun square Neptune
Everyone is putting on rose-colored glasses as the Sun squares whimsical Neptune, casting a hazy glow over the world. However, while a little bit of fantasy can be great if you take it too far, it can turn into escapism, and before you know it, you’ve completely lost yourself. Neptune may remove boundaries, but even if you want to forget about them, they’ll resurface soon enough.
- December 21st — Sun enters Capricorn
Just because the year is wrapping up doesn’t mean your goals should fly out the window. Yes, you’re enjoying yourself, but remember all the things you have yet to achieve, those things that give you a reason for doing what you do. Capricorn season is a terrific time to manifest, so finish 2025 on a strong note!
- December 21st — Venus square Saturn
Romance and pleasure may be in short supply as luxurious Venus squares off against icy Saturn, making it difficult for us to enjoy the bounty of our efforts. We may need to work harder to see positive results at work, while even the most loving relationships may experience a moment of strain before Venus moves on to more pleasant pastures.
- December 24th — Venus square Neptune
Be careful when it comes to giving your heart away, as Venus forms a conflicting square with foggy Neptune. Neptune can make it difficult to see reality, and that can, unfortunately, lead to us getting hurt. Don’t let someone walk all over you simply because you think they have lovely eyes and a cute butt. Your soulmate isn’t going to put you through hell.
- December 24th — Venus enters Capricorn
Love without proper foundations isn’t going to last, and Venus knows that only too well as it settles down in Capricorn for the next three and a half weeks. During this cycle, singles will be more interested in people who look good on paper, while couples will be more concerned with firming up their relationships rather than indulging in flights of fancy.
- December 30th — Mercury square Saturn
It can require a bit of extra effort to get on the same page as others when Mercury squares off Saturn. This can draw our attention to complications or things that aren’t working, but though it may seem like a bit of a drag at first, if you are willing to take the time to solve the problem in front of you, it will provide even more satisfaction and long-term results.
The Moon in December 2025
- December 4th — Gemini Full Moon
Partnerships and projects can yield positive results as the Gemini Full Moon shines a light on dynamic duos and bubbling ideas. Gemini is ruled by Mercury, so this will feel like a lovely burst of energy after last month’s retrograde phase, and with Mercury forming loose trines to both Jupiter and Saturn, positivity and productivity will go hand-in-hand.
- December 11th — Quarter Moon in Virgo
The Quarter Moon in Virgo arrives to remind us to seek balance in our world and find the calm amidst the chaos. If your life has fallen into disarray in recent months, now is the time to get back on the bandwagon and remember who you are. Initiate a new health program or meditation practice to reinstate equilibrium.
- December 19th — Sagittarius New Moon
The Sagittarius New Moon sparks a powerful opportunity for initiation and planting seeds, so we would all do well to make the most of this fruitful time. Sagittarius energy is all about breaking out of any boundaries and exploring the options available, so remember that the further you go in search of new vistas, the further your dreams will carry you.
- December 27th — Quarter Moon in Aries
The Quarter Moon in Aries lights a fire under each of us, reminding us that action often speaks louder than words. We can plan and strategize as much as we like, but this lunation encourages us to put the rubber to the road and take concrete steps towards our goals.

Love & Relationships:
Venus spends the first three and half weeks of December visiting Sagittarius and your 9th House of Expansion and Adventure, where she will be helping to smooth any ruffled feathers left over from when Mercury was retrograde here in November. This cycle inspires you to look for new ways to broaden your romantic horizons, whether that means widening your dating pool or hopping on a plane with your special someone. Venus will make a few tough angles during her time here, however, so don’t be shocked if you feel a little limited in the scope of your love life, especially around the holidays. There may simply be too many things on your plate to make room for romance, so don’t try to cram too many experiences in before the ball drops on the 31st.
Career & Money:
You can make steady progress this month, so even if everyone else is clocking out for the end of the year, you should make the most of the last days of 2025. Your ruler, go-getter Mars, arrives in Capricorn and your 10th House of Career on the 15th, where it will be heating up your professional life for the next six weeks. The Sun will follow suit on the 21st, then Venus will don her best business attire on the 24th, rounding out this impressive trio lighting up your ambitious 10th House. You can accomplish more than most in December, and with Mercury finally moving forward after last month’s retrograde, don’t be afraid to run for the finish line.
Lucky Crystal:
You may feel a little bit drained at times in December, as so many planets push you to be your most ambitious and adventurous self. That being the case, amethyst will be the best stone to help you get through this month teeming with power and potential. Amethyst is known to aid mental clarity, so it will keep you calm, cool, and collected if things get tough. The stone also promotes a good night’s rest, so keep a piece of amethyst by your bed.

Love & Relationships:
December is a month for deepening your relationships, and perhaps clearing up any romantic confusion left over from November’s retrograde phase. Venus is in Sagittarius and your intimate 8th House of Deep Bonding and Shared Resources until the 24th, helping you connect with your most important people on a deeper level than ever, paving the way for a better bond and a more fulfilling relationship. However, with Mars, the Sun, and then Venus all arriving in Capricorn and your freedom-seeking 9th House in the second half of the month, don’t be shocked if you start to crave new romantic vistas before 2025 comes to a close. Whether singled or coupled, the hunger for something new and different could prove irresistible.
Career & Money:
Your finances may have gotten a little shaken up last month, when Mercury was retrograde in your 8th House, a sector which governs major finances as well as other intimate bonds. Fortunately, this month Mercury will be moving direct once again, and will return to your 8th House on the 11th for the rest of the year, helping to clear up any confusion from November. Venus will also be lending her graces to this sector for much of the month, and she can bring unexpected windfalls your way, so you might wind the year down on a rather lucrative note. With a special Gemini Full Moon in your 2nd House of Income on the 4th, you may also be making some important strides at work before 2025 comes to a close.
Lucky Crystal:
December may ask a great deal of you as a number of planets journey through your deeply intense 8th House of Transformation. This being the case, aventurine will be an especially helpful stone this month, as it can strengthen and encourage you when you need it most. This stone also aids meditation and focus, and can be used to improve mental clarity, which will prove useful as the 8th House can be exceptionally mysterious territory.
Tarot Card:
Your sign’s Tarot card will be revealed in this month’s Tarotscope article.

Love & Relationships:
This could be one of the best months for romance you’ve experienced in some time, especially after November’s Mercury retrograde phase may have brought some tough moments to your love life. Fortunately, you’ve got alluring Venus in Sagittarius and your 7th House of Relationships until the 24th, so singles and couples alike can have an especially loving December, and with sexy Mars here until the 15th, and the Sun until the 21st, you will have plenty of planetary power backing you up. A Sagittarius New Moon will arrive on the 19th, so just because 2025 is nearly done doesn’t mean you can’t end the year on a very positive note with someone special by your side.
Career & Money:
Your ruler Mercury is in Scorpio and your 6th House of Daily Work as the month opens, having only just turned direct after spending three weeks retrograde in November. Mercury will be here until the 11th, during which time you will be able to make positive progress and clear up any confusion that may have occurred while Mercury was asleep at the wheel. This can help you end the year on a productive note, but many planets will be pointing your attention in the direction of romance and fun as the month winds down, so don’t think you need to roll up your sleeves and burn the midnight oil while everyone else is kicking back. You can wait until 2026 to climb the cosmic ladder.
Lucky Crystal:
This is a month for working together and forming special partnerships, and you will enjoy the process all the more with a piece of jade stone on hand. Jade can inspire harmony and peace, which could be especially useful with warrior Mars heating up your relationship sector for the first half of December. Jade will also help you defuse any stress with a partner all the more easily, so this stone can be useful in all kinds of connections this month, regardless of their nature.
Tarot Card:
Your sign’s Tarot card will be revealed in this month’s Tarotscope article.

Negative Influences: Micromanaging, Being Critical, Unfair Expectations

Love & Relationships:
Your love life may have gotten rather thrown off track in November with Mercury retrograde in Scorpio and your 5th House of Passion, but that planet is now direct and will be in this sector until the 11th, helping you follow your heart in the right direction, rather than going in circles. Sexy Mars will enter Capricorn and your 7th House of Relationships on the 15th, with the Sun following suit on the 21st, and Venus on the 24th, so you could end 2025 on quite a romantic note, whether you are coupled or single and looking for someone to fill that spot beside you. Either way, you should have no problem finding someone to kiss when midnight hits on the 31st.
Career & Money:
This could be an especially positive and productive month on the work front, so don’t be shy about rolling up your sleeves and burning the midnight oil while everyone else is clocking out early. The Sun, Mars, and Venus are all in Sagittarius and your 6th House of Daily Work as the month opens, and will spend the first half of December heating things up in a lovely way at the office. Meanwhile, Mercury will arrive here on the 11th for the rest of 2025, so you may have plenty of projects bubbling up in your mind, all of which can get a real boost from the Sagittarius New Moon on the 19th. You may find yourself coming up with lots of exciting ideas to implement in January.
Lucky Crystal:
December is a time for positive connections and partnerships, when you can come together with others for all kinds of reasons, be it professional, romantic, or simply platonic fun. With that in mind, opal will be the perfect stone for Cancers in December.
Opal inspires love and creativity, and a willingness to help others. Your empathy will be off the charts, and you’ll be able to express yourself and your feelings for others much more easily if you keep a little bit of opal nearby.

Affirmation: It’s best to make peace with the past before diving into the future.
Love & Relationships:
Romance may have been a difficult subject in November while Mercury was retrograde in Sagittarius and your 5th House of Passion and Pleasure, but the skies are turning in your favor this month. The Sun, Mars, and Venus are all in Sagittarius as December opens, bringing you plenty of chances to wear your heart on your sleeve, especially alluring Venus who will be here until the 24th. A Sagittarius New Moon on the 19th will offer you even more opportunities to make loving connections in the days and weeks to follow, so you can end 2025 on a very romantic note, whether you’re single and hoping to mingle, or already know who you’ll kiss at midnight on the 31st.
Career & Money:
December is largely a time for enjoying yourself, but don’t be shocked if your attention turns more towards your ambitions as the end of the year approaches. Action planet Mars enters Capricorn and your 6th House of Daily Work on the 15th, where it will be heating up your professional life for the next six weeks. The Sun will follow suit on the 21st, with Venus bringing a sense of ease and affluence on the 24th, so even if you are burning the midnight oil, it should manage to be an enjoyable process. Meanwhile, Mercury will enter Sagittarius and your creative 5th House on the 11th for the rest of December, so feel free to take a rather unusual approach to achieving your goals.
Lucky Crystal:
You’re going to be quite busy this month as you try to close out 2025 on a high note, but you may feel like you’re dealing with a career hangover in the first half of the month as Mercury retraces its steps from last month’s retrograde phase.
Fortunately, this is where chrysoprase will come in handy. This stone can help you maintain your positivity and capability even when there is a lot on your plate, so make the most of it in the weeks ahead.

Love & Relationships:
What begins as a rather internal and emotional month will end on quite an exciting and passionate note. The Sun, sexy Mars, and loving Venus are all in Sagittarius and your sensitive 4th House as December opens, but Mars will move into Capricorn and your 5th House of Romance and Creativity on the 15th, where it will be putting a fire in your love life for the next six weeks. The Sun will follow suit on the 21st, with Venus dancing her way in on the 24th, so the last week or two of the year could be the most enjoyable and romantic of the whole year.
Career & Money:
You may have been stuck spinning your wheels in November while your ruler Mercury was retrograde for three weeks, throwing a wrench in the cosmic works and forcing you to constantly look in the rearview mirror. Fortunately, Mercury is forging ahead in December, helping you clean up the clutter and make progress once again. A fabulous Gemini Full Moon on the 4th will light up your 10th House of Career and Achievements, so you could reach a professional crescendo in the following two weeks. Something you’ve been working on behind the scenes could be ready for a debut, or perhaps you finally complete a long-term project, much to your satisfaction. You’ve earned your reward.
Lucky Crystal:
Last month required you to rethink a few things and even return to a few outstanding work projects that required review, and this month you are trying to make progress once again, leaving the past for a more productive future. As such, Virgos will find citrine to be an especially helpful crystal in December, as it will help you finish out the year on a productive and even lucrative note, ensuring that your time and efforts are not wasted while you generate abundance in your life.

Libra
Positive Influences: Domestic Happiness, Friendships, Cause for Celebrations
Negative Influences: Slow Finances, Expectations, Overstimulation
Tarot Card: King of Wands
Lucky Crystal: Rose Quartz
Lucky Numbers: 2, 6, 8, 12, 17, 18, 20, 23, 25
Affirmation: Quality partnerships are more valuable than a great quantity of relationships.
Love & Relationships:
You’re in the mood to flirt and frolic the first three weeks of the month, as your ruler Venus dances along through Sagittarius and your buzzy 3rd House of Communications and Local Community until the 24th. Singles will have luck meeting intriguing people while running errands or out with friends, while couples should make a point to paint the town red. Sexy Mars will also be in Sagittarius until the 15th, heating up the action, but don’t be shocked if you begin to crave more emotional stability and quiet moments when each of these cosmic lovers enter Capricorn and your sensitive 4th House to close out the year. A quiet night in for two may be the perfect New Year’s Eve plans.
Career & Money:
Money matters could have caused you a few headaches in November while Mercury was retrograde in Scorpio and your 2nd House of Earned Income from the 18th to the 29th, but now the messenger planet is moving forward and helping you right any wrongs and pursue new projects. Mercury will be here until the 11th, then will join the cosmic brigade in Sagittarius and your chatty 3rd House, so it would be a good idea to do some networking while you’re celebrating the holidays, because you never know what useful connections you could make before 2025 comes to an end. Neptune will also turn direct in your daily work sector on the 10th, helping you gain some important insight when it comes to achieving your goals.
Lucky Crystal:
It may be a little difficult to know what you want from people this month, especially as your ruler Venus flits from one outgoing sector to a much more insular one in the last week of December. You will find it much easier to focus on quality relationships, current or potential, with a piece of rose quartz on hand. Not only can it help loving energy flow more freely to you and from you, but it can also help inspire you with more positivity, which is always good at this time of year.

Scorpio
Positive Influences: Clear Thinking, Financial Growth, Luxury
Negative Influences: Hyperfixation, Self-Centeredness, Causing Drama
Tarot Card: Knight of Swords
Lucky Crystal: Agate
Lucky Numbers: 1, 5, 7, 11, 13, 16, 23, 26, 27
Affirmation: Overnight success often requires years of patience.
Love & Relationships:
This month is largely about getting comfortable with your own bearings and foundations, rather than focusing your energy on others. You will be in the mood to socialize and flirt more when sexy Mars enters Capricorn and your chatty 3rd House on the 15th, and romantic Venus follows suit on the 24th. However, this is generally a casual sector, so singles can mingle but it may take time for things to develop, while couples should focus on enjoying the holiday spirit together. However, a Gemini Full Moon on the 4th will illuminate your intimate 8th House of Sensuality, which could help a connection reach a new depth and level of understanding, so there are chances for bonding in an otherwise light-hearted month.
Career & Money:
This could be an exceptionally productive and lucrative month for you, so even if everyone else is focusing on their holiday plans, don’t be shocked if you’re happy to burn the midnight oil. The primal Sun, action planet Mars, and bountiful Venus are all lighting up Sagittarius and your 2nd House of Earned Income for the first half of the month, then will begin to slip into your 3rd House one by one, but with Mercury entering Sagittarius on the 11th for the rest of the year, and a New Moon happening here on the 19th, you are primed to make some power plays before next January arrives. New connections or acquaintances made now can prove especially helpful when it comes to your next big project or goal.
Lucky Crystal:
You are going to be working extra hard in December while you host so many planets in your income sector, driving you to make bank before 2025 comes to an end. This is great, but it can be a bit overpowering at times, so agate will be the best crystal for you this month. Agate can neutralize extreme vibrations and cleanse your aura, so if you need to soothe any tensions or stressed out energy in the month ahead, agate will be very useful.

Affirmation: The more I plan and prepare, the better my results.
Love & Relationships:
You have a lot of firepower pushing you along this month, and people will have a hard time missing what you’re putting out into the world. With sexy Mars in your sign until the 15th, the primal Sun here until the 21st, and alluring Venus along for the ride until the 24th, you could have an especially romantic end of the year. Mercury will also be giving you the gift of gab starting on the 11th, as it returns to your sign to clean up any chaos left over from last month’s retrograde phase. Keep an eye on the Gemini Full Moon on the 4th, as it will shine a light on your 7th House of Relationships, and could bring an important connection into your life.
Career & Money:
You are in the mood to enjoy yourself and take it easy as December begins, but you will become more and more eager to end the year on a productive note as one planet after another enters Capricorn and your 2nd House of Earned Income. Action planet Mars will be the first, marching into this sector for the first time in two years on the 15th, where it will remain for the next six weeks, helping you earn more, but also spend more. The Sun will begin its annual tour of Capricorn on the 21st, with luxurious Venus following suit on the 24th, so you could close out 2025 on a very lucrative note, as these celestial bodies will make you very financially magnetic.
Lucky Crystal:
You may feel like there are a lot of energies competing for your attention throughout December, and it can leave you feeling a little overwhelmed and out of balance as you try to figure out what to address first. With that in mind, tiger’s eye will be the most useful crystal for Sagittarius this month. Not only does it help balance your energies, but it is especially good for purifying negative vibrations while promoting mental clarity to help you to cut through the confusion.

Romance may feel like a dream for the first few weeks of December, but the sort of dream that keeps slipping through your fingers, rather than the fairy tale ending sort. With passionate Mars, the life-giving Sun, and loving Venus all in Sagittarius and your sleepy 12th House of the Subconscious for the first half of the month, nothing may feel very stimulating or sensual. Fortunately, the program will change from black and white to technicolor as Mars enters your sign on the 15th, followed by the Sun on the 21st and then Venus on the 24th, so what starts as an unstimulating month could end on a positively toe-curling note. Let your heart lead you to the end of the year.
Career & Money:
You’ve been through a big year of major changes and developments, but December is a moment to collect yourself and build up your energy before charging off into 2026. This month is a time for planning and cleaning up any messes that November’s Mercury retrograde brought your way, but with that planet spending most of this month in your sleepy 12th House, you won’t be especially eager to make progress in the wider world. However, you could have a productive and rewarding moment around the Gemini Full Moon on the 4th, which will light up your 6th House of Daily Work; a long-term project may be ready for a reveal, or you could finally score that corner office you’ve been eyeing.
Lucky Crystal:
Your energy and spirits may be lagging in the first half of December, while your sign awaits a trio of celestial bodies to enter your sign, one after the next. Aquamarine can prove especially useful during this time, as it can help you concentrate when things feel foggy, and help you fortify your willpower when you might feel wishy-washy or uncertain of how to proceed. It will also come in especially handy if you need any clarity during this potentially mysterious time.

Aquarius
Positive Influences: Creativity, Passion, Socializing
Negative Influences: Fantasizing, Lack of Focus, Shallow Relationships
Tarot Card: Wheel of Fortune
Lucky Crystal: Fluorite
Lucky Numbers: 1, 2, 5, 11, 16, 19, 20, 25, 28
Affirmation: Even the biggest changes in life can occur slowly.
Love & Relationships:
Romance is a casual matter this month, with the exception of the Gemini Full Moon on the 4th, which could bring a new connection your way. Otherwise, loving Venus and passionate Mars are both in Sagittarius and your 11th House of Extended Networks as the month opens, which is a very platonic sector of your chart, although it does also rule technology, so you may have more luck with apps than usual, but it could take time for things to develop. However, Mars enters Capricorn and your subconscious 12th House on the 15th, and Venus follows suit on the 24th, so you may prefer to have a quiet end to 2025, saving new connections for the new year.
Career & Money:
Messenger Mercury is retracing the steps it retrograded over in November, and part of that cycle occurred in Scorpio and your 10th House of Career, so it is likely that you’re cleaning up a few professional messes as December begins. Mercury will be here until the 11th, so the first ten days or so will be the best time to focus on work. However, you will begin to think about less-ambitious activities in the second half of the month, so feel free to clock out early when possible and focus more on celebrating the holidays, rather than burning the midnight oil. 2026 will bring you plenty of new opportunities for professional progress, but you might as well enjoy yourself until then.
Lucky Crystal:
December can feel like a detox period as you wait for a series of planets to enter your sign next month. With your 12th House so lit up now, you will most benefit from the beautiful stone fluorite, which can inspire calmness and a sense of peace and ease, even during the most stressful times. Fluorite can negate that stress, and keep your feelings from getting unnecessarily stirred up, so it will prove the best crystal for the month ahead.

Negative Influences: Emotional Reactions, Poor Planning, Overworked
Tarot Card: 2 of Cups
Lucky Crystal: Carnelian

Affirmation: My intuition is meant to be listened to, not ignored.
Love & Relationships:
You are making waves at work this December, which could get in the way of your love life. Passionate Mars and adoring Venus will be in your career sector until the 15th and 24th respectively, when they will move into your social 11th House, which is generally considered more platonic territory than anything else. Couples can have plenty of fun hitting up holiday parties together, while singles may find themselves more interested in hanging out with friends than trying to score a last-minute end-of-year romance, but you never know who you’ll meet when you’re bouncing around with your casual crew. A friend-of-a-friend could be the perfect person to kiss when you count down to midnight.
Career & Money:
This could be one of the most productive months of the whole year, especially if you spun your wheels during the majority of November. The Sun, Mars, and Venus are all in Sagittarius and your 10th House of Career as the month opens, and they will each be pushing you forward at the office or wherever you go to make a name for yourself. Mercury will follow suit on the 11th, though Mars will make its exit on the 15th, followed by the Sun on the 21st, and Venus on the 24th, signalling a shift in your focus. However, with a Sagittarius New Moon lighting up this sector on the 19th, you could have a few last-minute successes and professional wins before the ball drops come the 31st.
Lucky Crystal:
Your career sector is going to be positively glowing throughout December, and this will keep you especially busy in the weeks ahead. That being the case, the best stone for Pisces to keep on hand this month will be carnelian.
Carnelian is a deep red stone known for its ability to inspire resolve and mental strength, so if you find yourself overwhelmed or your energy flagging in the face of all the mountains before you, hold on to a piece of carnelian and you will be able to climb them with no problem.
