Pisces, welcome to December! Last month, we talked about how Pluto, the planet of big changes, moved out of Capricorn and into Aquarius, where it will stay until 2043. This is a huge deal that only happens once in a generation. But this month, you'll be focusing on more immediate things, like the importance of friends and taking care of yourself.
December is a time for you to focus on stability and making progress in your career, Pisces. You might feel a surge of ambition and determination to reach new goals at work. It's a great time to set long-term plans and figure out how to achieve them. But don't forget about your personal life. Try to balance your career goals with the needs of your loved ones.
This month, put yourself first, Pisces. No matter what's happening with your job, public image, home, or family, your needs can come first. On December 8th, Saturn and Neptune start moving forward in your sign, and the First Quarter Moon gives you a boost. Friends, social networks, and your social life are also in the spotlight - keep this in mind as you head into 2025. Thanks to your friends and the high spirits of your team, you'll feel confident about who you are.
Mars, the planet of action, goes retrograde in your 6th house of health starting on Friday, December 6th and will stay there until the end of February. Mars retrograde is often linked to changes in sex drive. It's not a sure thing, but if it happens, be kind to yourself and go with the flow. Mars retrograde can also make you feel less interested in work, so use it as an excuse to really value work-life balance. Since it's happening in your 6th house, taking care of yourself is super important.
Also on Friday, December 6th, Venus, the planet of love and beauty, enters Aquarius and your 12th house of the subconscious. This is a very spiritually expansive transit. This weekend, let yourself go to church, do tarot readings, or connect with ancestors. You might also want to keep a dream journal by your bed to write down any messages that come to you while you sleep.
The next day, Saturday, December 7th, Ceres, the asteroid of nurturing, moves into your 11th house of friendship. Later this month, many of you will travel to see blood relatives for the holidays. While some people have great relationships with their families, others don't. Ceres moving into your 11th house is a reminder to make time for your chosen family too.
On Saturday, December 7th, Neptune, your ruling planet, goes directly into your sign, Pisces. Neptune is the planet of dreams and imagination. When it ends its retrograde, it feels like a fog lifts. Once it's direct, you should gain clarity on something that's been bothering you. It can also make you even more spiritually tuned in.
You might want to circle Sunday, December 15th on your calendar. First, Mercury ends its retrograde and goes direct. This further clears up misunderstandings. It also means that travel shouldn't be too awful. If any exes have been bugging you, or if you've been bugging any exes, it's time to let that go. There's also a full moon in Gemini in your 4th house of home and family on December 15th. Sometimes full moons can be a little stressful, so take it easy and relax on this day.
The sun moves into Capricorn on Saturday, December 21st, which is the Winter Solstice, the shortest day of the year. It's another night you might want to spend chilling at home with loved ones. This day is also Yule, which you can think of as Pagan Christmas. A lot of Christmas traditions, like decorating trees and lighting candles, are said to come from Yule. For the next few weeks, the sun is in your 11th house of friendship, so keep making time for your chosen family.
Chiron, the 'wounded healer,' goes directly into your 12th house on Sunday, December 29th. This shift adds even more spirituality to December. It's going to be a very intuitive month. Trust your gut feelings about people this month.
December wraps up with a new moon in your 11th house of community on Monday, December 30th. New moons are about fresh starts. If you haven't already, try to use this day, which is right before New Year's Eve, to see your friends. Have fun, whether you go out partying or just relax at home together. See you in 2025, Pisces!
