“Holiday Time”
The last week of the year takes us into a drifty, dreamy, time-warpy space where we can lose track of time. You might forget what day it is or where you are in the context of the week. We have Neptune bringing a little fog, but not necessarily in a bad way. It’s a loving, supportive fog that can let us enter a nice little fantasy land of our own making for a few days.
On Tuesday we have a full moon in Cancer. Luna is in her home sign and feeling herself. Nurturing, supportive, and mothering energy with a touch of optimism and organizational vibes. This one may feel more like a hug that sets you in the right direction and helps you see the path forward.
On Friday, Venus leaves Scorpio and enters Sagittarius, bringing a lighter, more hopeful feeling to our relationships. Themes of freedom, adventure, and authenticity show up in conversation and heart-to-hearts over the next few weeks.
On Saturday, Jupiter stations direct, bringing forward motion to our growth, development, and goal setting. Whatever you’ve been working on will get the green light to proceed. Jupiter, having been in retrograde since September, has helped to reset our enthusiasms, excesses, and expectations. Notice how these themes have changed for you and check out what house Jupiter is transiting in your chart to see where you’ll start to see momentum building soon.
And…here’s what’s happening for your zodiac sign:
Find your flow with your individual horoscope this week. You can use your Ascendant or Sun Sign to start, but check in with your Mars, Venus, or Moon sign – as they may offer additional clues that may be helpful too.
Aries
Your patience may be tested at the start of the week. Family themes or possibly spending time with mom or an important female figure in your life takes center stage. There can be delays and obstacles in getting things started and out the door. Take solace in physical activity- counting your steps, a game of basketball or any outlet of energy can help you to be present and able to show up.
Taurus
You’ve been questioning motives and asking questions recently. Staying curious and being open-minded are the keys to unlocking your Christmas week. Try not to get frustrated if confusion, delays, and a lack of focus descends this week. You may have to do something twice or do it again. Enjoy time with family and the creature comforts of the season. A warm mug, a blazing fire, and making time to snuggle up for a show can do much to lift your spirits.
Gemini
You’ve been taking charge in relationships recently, building both bridges and boundaries. This week is a time to step back and count your blessings. Notice the ways you’ve been creating stability and the resources that you’re building for the future. This can be money & possessions but also new friends and family, as well as the knowledge you’ve gained this year to move forward in a steadier way. Your instincts are good so use this knowledge to set intentions for the new year.
Cancer
Maybe your work has been weighing heavily on your mind? You had much to accomplish this year and you’re trying to make this last week count! On Tuesday when the moon is full, it’s a powerful time for you. You may feel pulled in many directions but take some time to lean into the intuitive nurturer that you are. Self-care and a personal connection with water is a must (i.e. go to the beach or lake or just take a bath)! This is your time to shine.
Leo
Entertaining and hosting parties have been fun, but also exhausting. It’s time to take a step back and take a break before you deplete yourself. Stay hydrated and take your vitamins. Get some extra zzzzs. Retreat for a bit and take some time to unwind, paint your nails, or get a massage. Even some yoga or a nature walk can help to rejuvenate a weary lion. Make this week the time to parent yourself and to nurture your inner needs.
Virgo
You’ve bought all the gifts, given them to beloved family and your star has burned bright for all the VIPs in your world. You’re the most thoughtful and best gift giver and you proudly wear your crown. As the holiday grows to a close you may realize there’s a friend or peripheral person that you’d like to connect with or at least acknowledge. Take that last step midweek, and then it’s time to go into “hermit mode”. You’ve been out and about and now some much-needed R & R is on tap. Take a break and do you. Retreat to your inner world to rest and reset.
Libra
Mental stimulation has been plentiful recently and your mind has wandered into curious and interesting new areas. It has also grown. There are new ideas and plans on the horizon and swirling in your mind right now. During the full moon share your findings with your peeps and get them on board. You are known for your sense of style, your fairness, and your ability to include others. The full moon is supporting your endeavors and you’re sure to be a hit! Redecorate, build that new deck, or paint the room an audacious color. Get your admirers to join in and create the atmosphere that everyone has come to appreciate from you.
Scorpio
Your possessions and resources have been on your mind- how to acquire them, and how to keep and grow them. You have an inspiration that feels like you’re stepping out on a limb. But the moon says you can do it and you will be successful. So go for it! You’ve got this! Your reputation for focus, having things under control, and pushing forward are widely respected. And you will see this by the quality and thoughtfulness of gifts you receive in return. Enjoy this knowledge and let loose a little bit. Even controlled fun is still fun! Enjoy!
Sagittarius
Have you been working on yourself and setting goals for improved health and wellbeing recently? You’re on the right track and doing great, even if you haven’t acted yet. This week has you considering important relationships and the things you are intensely passionate about. You will hear or learn something that you didn’t know before. This in turn will give you the fuel to begin a new adventure that combines the two. Use the full moon energy to lean into your intuition and knowing.
Capricorn
Maybe you’ve been under the weather or internally focused recently and that’s ok. Retreating into your own world and replenishing your inner resources is important. You will find your discipline and routines again and start to feel more like yourself this week. Look at how others are supporting or interrupting your growth and forward motion. It might be time to do some pruning of how you let them access your time. Boundaries and a focus on your future plans can help you focus your energies.
Aquarius
You’ve been working the group mind and considering everyone’s opinions and needs. It’s been fun but now it’s time to get your own routines, health, and work/life balance in order. Consider what steps you can take to care for your body to create vitality and wellness. You must apply the oxygen mask to you first. And then you will be ready to help others. Relationship issues come up at the end of the week so look for ways to find common ground and compromise. You can think of a creative solution that can outwit any trouble that might come up.
Pisces
A focus on home spaces, family and loved ones starts your week off with a dreamy and romantic stretch of days. Have fun, play games, and enjoy some time together nurturing relationships and building rapport. The end of the week shifts your focus onto work and routines. So enjoy the drift and then you can focus on the holiday clean up and getting things back into order over the weekend.
