CAPRICORN | DECEMBER HOROSCOPE

Happy December, Capricorn! And happy last 21 days (if you are reading this at the beginning of the month) of Saturn being in your 1st house of self and identity. You are ALMOST THERE! December opens up with Mercury, the planet of communication, entering your 12th house of Sagittarius. 12th house energy often represents inward work and introspection, along with isolation. This transit indicates the shift in focus towards our mental health, patterns and behaviours. Dig deep during these next few weeks in order to understand yourself better. On the 14th, we will be experiencing a total Solar Eclipse in Sagittarius, and this is activating your 12th house as well. Now, in case we haven’t covered this yet, eclipse season is a no-go for manifestation.. The energy is too chaotic and we are unable to work with both the Sun & the Moon as we are used to since this is not a normal lunation. My advice is to use the energy of these eclipses to listen and reflect, see what comes up and what is being brought to your attention! On the 15th, Venus, the planet of values and beauty, enters your 12th house of Sagittarius (lots of 12th house energy for you the first half of the month, Capricorn!) The energy of Venus brings a sort of self-lessness feeling into the significations of the 12th house, where you could be more inclined to tend to the needs of others from a selfless perspective. Regardless, the first half of the month asks for a lot of introspection and self-work on a spiritual and mental level, in order to work through and weave out self-sabotaging tendencies and behavioral patterns. On the 17th, Saturn, the planet of discipline and boundaries, enters your 2nd house of finances, values and possessions. This indicates a period of time where you’ll need to pay attention to your finances and work towards building a sustainable, solid and long-lasting foundation for yourself and the years to come. Keep in mind that Saturn is considered one of the slower moving planets, taking 2 and a half/3 years to make its way through a single sign of the zodiac, so these themes might come up over a long period of time. On the 19th, Jupiter joins Saturn in your 2nd house of Aquarius, Jupiter is known as the planet of opportunity but most importantly, expansion. Therefore, whatever you do during this period of time when Jupiter transits your 2nd house, has the potential to grow exponentially. It can be a fortunate time for making money as well as mismanaging it, so be careful! On the 20th, Mercury ingresses your 1st house of Capricorn, signaling a period over the next 3 weeks where you can lean more towards speaking your mind and making your opinions known, as well as just indicating higher mental activity overall. If you feel yourself going into overdrive, just take a break and relax your mind and come back to it with a calm mind. On the 21st, Jupiter and Saturn will form what we call “The Great Conjunction” in your 2nd house of Aquarius. This is a HUGE planetary alignment that has been falling on earth signs for the past 200 years. This is marking a new “Air” era that we are entering, an era of the mind and intellect. The fact that this conjunction is falling in your 2nd house, calls for new and innovative ways for you to think about and pursue when it comes to your value system and financial possessions and situations. Harness both energies provided to you, Jupiter’s expansion, wisdom and opportunity plus Saturn’s ability to build long-lasting foundations, restructure and draw boundaries where they are needed. On the same day, the Sun enters your 1st house of Capricorn, indicating a period of time where your body can recharge and it can be beneficial for you to prioritize your self-care and self-expression routine. The month, and the year, finishes up with a somewhat unproblematic Full Moon in Cancer. This lunation illuminates your 7th house of relationships, signaling a good time to release and shed relationships that aren’t productively conducive to your growth, both personal and interpersonal. It’ll be squaring Mars, which has been transiting your 4th house of home and family, so if this pertains to any toxic dynamics or behaviors between your family members, this can be a time to hash those out and release what is out of your control, and in turn nurturing yourself and the relationships you do value and find support in.
