To all star signs we wish you a Merry Xmas and a very happy new year!  Xmas will be bathed in the Moon sign of Leo! This means you are likely to be confident and performing well. It is great for entertaining and going to shows!  If you attend social events romance is available.

ARIES [March 21 - 20 April]

Yes, all things being considered, December is a fairly tranquil month for you astrologically.  Between early December and early January, Venus moves through the sign of Scorpio and it gives you a second chance to do that which you did not achieve when Venus was in this sign last September.  You will feel a lot better as Mercury turns direct, moving forward again, in the sign of Scorpio on December 6^th.  Hopefully this means that things between you and your romantic partner will improve in the communication department.    Of course, this is just in time to avoid heavy duty arguments over how much money you should spend at Christmas and whether you agree on who receives which present!  If at all possible you should see if you could have a romantic weekend away any time after the 12^th when Mercury enters Sagittarius.  The New Moon comes up in Sagittarius on December 7^th and should bring new opportunities.  

TAURUS ( 21 APRIL- 21 MAY )

As you enter the last month of this year, 2018, take a few minutes to think what you would do, or what you would like to achieve and experience in 2019!  Perhaps you should make a “bucket list’ and pin it where you will often see it.   Early December, Venus enters Scorpio again, where it was last September.  Why we mention this is for you to think of it as a second chance to do what you did not do in September.  Look carefully at your business dealings, or relationships with others, as when Mercury turns direct in Scorpio you can fine tune to repair or adjust any previous any previous difficulties.  From mid month Mercury turns direct in Scorpio and when it joins up with Jupiter, in Sagittarius, they travel together until January 4^th 2019.  This should spell a lot of fun for you and expand your intellectual interests and communication skills.  The New Moon should bring a new financial opportunity for you. It is beneficial for applying for any specific mortgages or loans now.

GEMINI 22 MAY -22 JUNE

With the New Moon coming up on December 7^th you should slow down enough to take stock of how this year went for you.  Did you experience and achieve what you wanted?  Are you happier?  More productive? Is your bank account flourishing?  So make a list of your wishes so that you see them in writing and review them from the December7th to the 9^th.  As Mercury will turn direct again on the 7th you will gradually find it better for shopping and being busy with your holiday plans.   Mercury enters Sagittarius on the 12^th, and there is a Full Moon in Cancer on the 22^nd, so you should be able to decide what are the best presents for your family and friends at Christmas.   You may be lucky from the New Moon in Sagittarius on the 7th to find the perfect person to team up with for a creative endeavour or a trip, or even an adventure of some sort.  The Full Moon at month’s end brings better financial news and because it is very powerful be prepared for a nice financial surprise.

CANCER 23 JUNE - 22 JULY

Looking back on 2018 did you achieve and experience that which you  had hoped?  Are you happier?  Perhaps more prosperous?  So between early December and mid December when Mercury moves into Sagittarius you have a chance to straighten out whatever went haywire in your love life.  As your intuition at this time is practically infallible listen to your gut feelings.   We suggest you tie up any loose ends and launch your new projects with enthusiastic partners.  The energy you are receiving feels probably inexhaustible.  It is wise to look back to May and June to see what energy you were experiencing and you are now about to see yourself becoming a magnet for similar event!  There is a Full Moon in your sign on the 22^nd and because you a Cardinal sign, and that means Leadership potential, this Full Moon is a beautiful way to end 2018 and move into the New Year.  You should find no difficulties regarding the right presents to gift at Christmas. Someone needs a “Teddy” to hug.

LEO (July 23 – 22 August )

On December 2^nd the planet Venus enters the sign of Scorpio, and it will be there until January 17^th 2019.  We suggest that you think back to September, when Venus went through this sign last time.  What types of emotions did you experience?  Was there a lot of drama at home?  Perhaps there was a lot of drama in your relationships?  OK – so during December you have the opportunity to set right whatever went wrong.  Mercury turns direct into the sign of Scorpio from the 6^th and it moves into Sagittarius six days later and will be there, supporting your efforts until January 4^th 2019.  All this means you grasp the larger picture now and are able to make course corrections so that you and your partner are more together in synch.  With the beautiful New Moon in Sagittarius, joining Jupiter around the 7^th all sorts of opportunities open up for you with romance and creativity.  It is quite possible for a pregnancy to take place from this month.  Expect good news in the New Year.

VIRGO (23 August – 22 September)

As you enter the last month of 2018 take some time to think about what you would like to achieve in the New Year.  Perhaps you would like to make a list and post it where you will see it often!  Back your visualisations with emotions.  It’s like thinking of desires, rather than resolutions.  With Venus entering Scorpio and Mercury turning direct in the first week of December, for a period of about a week these two planets travel together. Your emotions run deep during these transits that really affect the most intimate of relationships and an extra plus is that you might find that your intuition is enhanced.  Mercury will delight, moving forward from December 12^th to early January, in the sign of Sagittarius.  This is the stuff that parties are made for!!  The New Moon in Sagittarius in the first week offers new opportunities for travel and for something to do with your family life.  As expansive Jupiter is also in this sign opportunities are beneficial and should be satisfying now.

LIBRA [23 September - 22 October]

How did 2018 turn out for you?  Did you achieve what you had hoped?  How can you use what you learned this year to achieve what you want next year?  What, if anything, would you change?  List your desires and dreams. See if you can keep that list where you can see it often.  For a whole month between early December and January 2019 Venus transits the emotionally intense Scorpio sign.  It is going to revise your financial area as it did between September and October.  Once again, new financial opportunities will present themselves and you will know intuitively which ones are viable.  From approximately a week Mercury and Venus travel together and these two have a lot to say to each other about money, romance and creativity.  The New Moon around the 7^th features Sagittarius which adds to your enjoyment.  This is because Mercury and Jupiter are also in this sign and there is a festive mood about everything you do and feel.  December 22^nd, a Full Moon in Cancer sees success.

SCORPIO [23 October - 22 November]

December is a fairly quiet month for you, but because Venus enters Scorpio and stays there until early January next year.  So this presents another fabulous period for you.  Both your love live and your creativity are heightened. Mercury also turns direct in your sign on December 1^st . This means you can look back to last September and October to review your financial accounts.  With Mercury entering Sagittarius on December 12^th you will be caught up in the holiday spirit and the exciting energy of Sagittarius makes this transit fun and joyful.  Let’s see if you can take up new financial opportunities which may surface, perhaps through publishing, international travel or a workshop that will help you teach.  The Full Moon at the end of the month in your fellow water sign of Cancer highlights your spirituality.  So the last week of this month finds you working on the holidays for the New Year.   You need to reflect on this past year and how it fulfilled your own expectations.

SAGITTARIUS  (23 November – 21 December)

On the last month of this year take a few minutes to think about what you would like to experience and achieve next year.  By making a list of half a dozen items just don’t worry about how these things will come about; simply trust that they will!  December should be a calmer month than the previous last two.  With Venus re entering Scorpio where it will be until January 7^th 2019, this second time around enables you to complete that which you did not finish in September.  That is when Venus went backwards.  You may want to retread that September round-up for hints about what you may experience during this second run.  With Mercury travelling together with Venus,  Mercury will just happen to move into your sign for the second time this year, and remains there until early January.  Around the7th of this month there is a New Moon, which happens to be in your sign!  This one comes around just once a year and you should try and see what opportunities you would like to experience.

CAPRICORN [23 December - 19 January].

On December 2^nd, Venus enters Scorpio once again, and just in time for the holidays.  All this means your social life takes off nicely.  The possibility is that friends are coming out of the proverbial woodwork now!  Romance is in the air, and if you are in a relationship, then things undoubtedly go very well for you.  What you should do early December, is to evaluate your progress for 2018 in all facets of your life.  Then check to see what you might to like experience and achieve in 2019.  Make a list as this will encourage you to create realistic goals for next year.  Mid month Mercury enters Sagittarius again and during this transit you have the opportunity to tie up any loose ends that you began in October.  There is a New Moon in Sagittarius on the7th, so this is an ideal time to write your holiday wishes and make sure you are with people that tend to be in fun-loving moods.  The Full Moon is  in Cancer on the 22^nd and brings news about either a business or personal relationship.

AQUARIUS [20 January - 19 February]    

You are well used to strange events in your life and the planet Uranus will continue to give you that.  Uranus  moved into Taurus until November, when it slipped back into Aries, during a retrograde period.  You can note that in 2019 that planet enters Taurus again and will be there until July 2025.  Some of the possibilities of this transit might include a move, or a birth or someone moving in or out of your home.  There is a strong possibility you may build a home, buy a property and keep doing well in a home based business.  Pivotal life events are often part of an Uranus transit.  Take a few minutes this month to consider what you would like to experience and to achieve in the year ahead.  Mercury in retrograde keeps you focused on your career, and personal relationships.  Venus will make it easy to network.  If you are self employed make sure you complete projects before the holidays.  December 22^nd brings news through the Full Moon about your daily work routine.

PISCES [20     February - 20 March]

The question you should ask yourself is did you achieve all your goals for 2018!  It would be beneficial to spend some time musing about what you would like to experience and achieve in 2019.  Write down a list as “desires” rather than “goals” and post it where you will see it frequently.  With Jupiter moving into Sagittarius that should hold great promise for your love life, finances and creativity.  It does mean that your conscious focus and communication abilities expand significantly.  You can now plan and day dream about travelling and consider having fun on an ideal holiday.  There is a New Moon in Sagittarius, at the 7^th December, and that one should bring new professional opportunities such as a promotion, a raise, travel or new contacts.  If you happen to be a writer with a manuscript, you should submit it between now and the next Full Moon and early January 2019.  The Full Moon is in a fellow water sign, namely Cancer, and it is good news about family.
