Your horoscope for December 2025

December sparkles with that familiar end-of-year magic, and lights across Tokyo make the city glow as we take stock of ourselves over the past year. We’re leaving behind the heaviness of retrograde season, and the air feels crisper, as if the world is encouraging us to take a deep breath before leaping into a new solar year. The calendar makes it easy to look back, but we’re still in the adventurous Sagittarius season—a time not only for reflection, but also for expansion, imagining the best version of ourselves we’re growing into.

We start the month with a Full Moon in Gemini on December 4th. Suppressed emotions or thoughts may surface this day; when in doubt, compassionate honesty won’t lead you astray. Then, Neptune, our dreamy planet of spirituality and fantasy, will go direct on December 10 after five months of retrograde motion. This transit will help clear up confusing inner clutter, allowing us to put into action the deep inner work we do. This coincides with Mercury entering vast Sagittarius the next day, giving us the courage to speak honestly and look toward a bigger, brighter future.

On December 15, Mars enters Capricorn, setting the stage for our ambitions with a new focus. (Plus, it’ll help you create a perfectly coordinated to-do list for all your pre-vacation preparations.) The Sagittarius New Moon on December 19 beckons a new wave of optimism, whether it’s noticing a new path or experiencing a rekindled dream. Then, on December 21, we enter ambitious Capricorn season, marking the winter solstice and a general shift toward stability and structure in our daily lives. Venus is also in Capricorn on Christmas Eve, blessing us with a renewed sense of commitment and a sense of patient, abiding love for those we hold dear.

December is a month when you feel the weight of everything you’ve experienced this year and the possibility of everything to come. Walk softly, walk bravely – you are entering a new chapter, and you have more wisdom than you think.
