December Horoscopes

Sagittarius Horoscope (November 22 - December 21)
Mutable Fire. Your ruling planet is Jupiter.

This is your time to shine, Sagittarius. After a difficult passage, you emerge into a sunlit clearing mostly full of confidence and pizzazz. Helpful partners may arrive to shed light and provide surprises. You are changing fundamentally in your self-concept, digging down for the gold at the end of your particular rainbow. It's hard work at times and the insights may be slow to dawn, because new ideas regarding the way that you operate take their time to enter into fruition. But then again the epiphanies might come fast and furious in this fertile period, especially if you can stay alert to all of your possibilities.

As the month begins, you are likely to be percolating with the excitement of several planets massing in your sign, including your ruler, Jupiter. You are feeling joy and abundance, with also a shift in the bedrock under your feet, since Uranus, in your sector of home and family and your psychological roots, is calling out for some extra attention as well, especially at the time of the Full Moon of December 4th. This is a time of surprises and also of increased focus on the significant others in your life, who may have the effect of bringing a startlingly different point of view to bear on the mysterious roots of your being, that numinous inner world that underlies all that you say and do, with repercussions for your feelings of security and stability. The insights regarding your home and your family situation at this time are important to pay attention to, even though it's easy to skip over them when everything else is moving so fast. And the other area of your life that is up for a different viewpoint over the course of this month's transits would be your long-term perspective and basic beliefs, where you also may find some difficult challenges emerging. The weekend that follows, of December 9th and 10th, is likely to be filled with frenetic thoughts and enjoyable social activities. Those holiday parties could provide more than their normal share of excitement. Then the Last Quarter Moon of Tuesday, December 12th, puts a different spin on things and brings in the shadow of lost opportunity. You may come to some unpleasant but necessary conclusions in the midst of what is actually a great month for you. The following weekend, leading up to the New Moon that takes place a week later, on Wednesday, December 20th, is an important time of increased understanding. There is a way that you are challenged in finding the true meaning of your life right now, amidst the glitter of the surface world that surrounds you. The grim reminder that haunts you during this month of contrasts is one of potential insufficiency of meaning and also the opportunity to craft new ones for yourself as the year ends.
