We begin the last month of 2025 with both Mercury and Saturn in direct motion (yay!) and Neptune’s retrograde period soon to end on December 10th. He is basically stuck on the 29th degree of Pisces for the rest of the year and for the first 3 weeks of the new year, 2026.
We have a very powerful full Moon on December 19 at 28 degrees of Sagittarius, the 3rd full moon in a row to happen at the 28th degree and three more to follow in 2026. I’ve never seen six consecutive months of lunation at the same degree before! To me it reinforces the theme of closure happening with the outer planets and Saturn, all going into new signs next month.
Although Pluto has been in Aquarius for about a year now, he is only recently finishing his transit of the 1st degree of Aquarius with his theme of closure and ultimate transformation. He moves to the 2nd degree the day after the new Moon at 13 degrees of Gemini on December 4th. It should be interesting as it unfolds.
Both Saturn and Neptune are very powerful all month because of their slow movement forward. Mercury’s power is still very strong through December 11th before it slips into the sign of Sagittarius, where the little dude is considered in detriment as Sag is opposite Gemini, a sign Mercury rules. Secrets will still be uncovered during this time and Saturn will demand some kind of correction for any wrong actions basically since April when he first transited the 25th degree of Pisces earlier in the year.
And left himVenus moves from 1 degree of Sagittarius to 8 degrees, 55’ of Capricorn by the end of December. She will enter Capricorn on Christmas Eve so giving very practical gifts or gift cards will please everyone this year.
Mars moves from 20 degrees of Sagittarius to 12 degrees, 31’ of Capricorn so he, too, embraces the practical theme that is Capricorn. Mars is exalted in Capricorn, therefore, any sports or fitness related gifts will also be appreciated.
Jupiter is still retrograde in the sign of Cancer, the sign where he is considered exalted, and moves from 24 degrees, 29’ back to 21 degrees, 21’. This indicates that Christmas this year will hold a lot of sentimental value and special memories for all involved. Cancer is a cardinal, feminine, water sign devoted to family connections, comforts and security.
Saturn moves from 25 degrees 10’ to 26 degrees 9’ of Pisces this month and is making his corrections along the way. Uranus is retrograde and moves from 29 degrees, 1’ of Taurus to 27 degrees, 57’ of Taurus. He was last at these degrees in May of 2025 and will cover them one last time when in direct motion in mid-March of 2026. He will be on the 27th degree of Taurus all through the months of January and February, though he goes direct on February 4, 2026. That time will hold many twists and turns as Uranus brings change and sudden shifts of mood as well.
I previously covered Neptune’s position at 29 degrees of Pisces as he moves from retrograde to direct motion on December 11th. There even a stronger mental fuzziness at the 29th degree of any sign but in particular for Pisces as that is the final degree of the 360 degree zodiac. May better angels prevail for all of us.
Pluto inches forward from 1 degree, 55’ of Aquarius to 2 degrees 43’ during the month. Since Aquarius represents the collective masses, society in general and new ideas for the future, he is gaining strength in numbers and power as he moves forward in that sign.
READ YOUR SUN SIGN AND RISING SIGN FOR BEST RESULTS:
Aries — March 21-April 19: Your ruling planet, Mars, goes into the sign of Capricorn on December 15th in your solar 10th house and gains in strength at that time. You can be very productive for the next 6 weeks and accomplish more things than you thought possible, particularly in your career and public life. Stay focused and get adequate rest. You are ending a cycle and will feel like a new person by the spring of 2026, when Neptune and Saturn get into your sign. Aries is new beginnings and that is what is in store for you in 2026. Your stellar days are the 1st, 27, 28 and the AM hours of the 29th.
Taurus — April 20-May 20: Uranus is retrograde in your sign again, transiting back over the 28th degree for the month. This is his 2nd time on degree 28 since June of 2025. You should know by now what unnecessary baggage needs to be carried out. Get lean with your possessions at this time; donate what you no longer use as there will be someone out there who will be thrilled to get it. You will feel so much lighter psychically and really appreciate this feeling at this time of life. Use the positive lunar vibes on the 2nd, 3rd, the PM hours of the 29th, the 30th and the AM hours of the 31st as they are your most favorable days this month.
Gemini — May 21-June 21: Mercury is now in direct motion, and you will soon start feeling more like yourself energetically, which will carry forward through the month. Though you might feel a bit restless after he gets into Sag on the 11th, so schedule yourself some alone “wandering time” to feel more at ease this month. Geminis can cause trouble if they are feeling trapped or stifled in any way. When you need space, you need space. Your best days are the full Moon on the 4th, the 5th and the PM hours of the 31st.
Cancer — June 22-July 23: Jupiter in your sign, though in retrograde motion, still has a very protective influence on you this month. People are very responsive to your energy and you can experience favorable gains with the Guru gracing your sign. You can also gain weight…sorry about that. In any event, keep a regular health routine this month as the Sun, Mercury, Venus and Mars are transiting your solar 6th house of health most of this month. Stay on track with your food intake and exercise schedule for continued positive rewards. Your most favorable days are the 6th and 7th.
Leo — July 24-August 23: With the Sun, Venus and Mars all in the sign of Sagittarius now and for the next two weeks, you could meet someone special at this time as those planets are energizing your 5th house of love and romance, fun times and creativity. Just don’t make any fast commitments. You also need to attend to any unfinished tax issues, insurance issues or wills and last testament wishes through February 2026. You may be feeling some fear or dread about the end of life so the only way through that is to confront it head on and figure out what you want. The lunar vibes favor you on the 8th and 9th so go and do something fun!
Virgo — August 24-September 22: With the Sun, Venus and Mars all transiting your solar 4th house of home, family, ancestors and your personal foundation of security, it’s a great month to entertain in your home. Saturn and Neptune are in your solar 7th house of partnership so you are challenged to be both protective of your spouse and to also be able to read their minds and meet those needs. That’ll be fun! Mercury is transiting your 3rd house of communication so stay on top of things with family, your neighbors and any mass communication needs. Clear up the misunderstandings of the recent retrograde period in November. Your stellar days are the 10th, 11th and AM hours of the 12th.
Libra — September 23-October 22: With Jupiter up at the top of your chart, though he is retrograde, there’s still plenty of positive, expansive energy in your 10th house of public image and career. Continue to make progress on any project or idea you have to advance your cause. Saturn and Neptune are finishing up their Pisces business in your 6th house of health and habits, so make changes you need to in the new year. Venus, your ruling planet, is in your 3rd house of communication, neighbors, siblings and your surrounding neighborhood. This can be a fun placement with many choices of ways to amuse yourself this holiday season. Use the positive vibes of the 13th and 14th to do just that.
Scorpio — October 23-November 22: Mars is in your solar 2nd house now and moves to the 3rd house a few days before the Solstice on the 21st. This shift into Capricorn gives you a big boost physically and your health should thrive right now if you stay active and busy. Still with Pluto hanging out at the very bottom of your chart at the start of the 4th house, you are still feeling acutely worried about your security, your life expectancy and it could also mean you experience a family member’s passing in the coming year. Pluto will be in that house for about 20 years, so you have to adjust to changes and loss and learn not to dwell on the downside of life. Use the favorable lunar vibes on the 15th, 16th and AM hours of the 17th to shift your energy.
Sagittarius — November 23-December 20: With Venus, the Sun and Mars all in your sign for the first 2 weeks of the month, there’s a lot of positivity around you and you can gain a lot of attention and favor from others just be sharing your joyful vibes. Jupiter is in your solar 8th house but in a sign, Cancer, it loves to be in so there’s no harm to you there. In fact, you could even get an inheritance, insurance settlement or favorable investment news. In any event, enjoy the fun times this month. Your best days are the PM hours of the 17th, the 18th and 19th.
Capricorn — December 21-January 20: With Saturn now in direct motion, you can shake off some doldrums of energy now and get some momentum going for your interests again. Jupiter is in your solar 7th house of partnerships, and though retrograde, there is still plenty of good vibes going on there. Next year, with Saturn and Neptune going into the sign of Aries and your solar 4th house you may feel the urge to move into a new home, maybe one with a home office so you can work from home. It’s just a thought. Use the positive lunar vibes on the 20th and the new Moon on the 21st and the AM hours of the 22nd to envision what you want.
Aquarius — January 21-February 19: With Saturn in direct motion transiting your solar 2nd house, you are acutely aware of money, expenses, and your assets right now. You might even be considering liquidating an asset to use that money in a different way since Saturn will be going into Aries next year. Pluto in your sign at the end of the 1st degree has you wanting change and to express yourself in a different way. 2025 is a nine year, so it also carries the vibe of endings with new changes coming in the new year of 2026, a one year. Your stellar days are the 23rd and 24th.
Pisces — February 20-March 20: Well, the end of this year will feel like things will never be the same again as Saturn and Neptune will transit the last degrees of your sign in the coming couple of months. You also have Uranus at the bottom of your chart, which can indicate a move in 2026 when it gets into your solar 4th house. You can feel things shifting, but it’s hard to identify how that will play out in reality in your mind. You may even want to avoid the feelings. Just take it one day at a time and keep moving forward. Use the good vibes on the 25th and 26th to get your way.
