This is an interesting December month for you, Pisces, one of introspection and of trying to get things right in terms of career and profession, regarding the application of your beliefs and fundamental values to your outer world presence. You have an introspective time going as well, with Mercury Retrograde in Sagittarius from late last month, corresponding to your career sector. You could find yourself thinking and rethinking your vocational arrangements all through the month. Mars, too, retrogrades in Leo on the 6th, having moved along very slowly up until that moment, which could relate to looking into your habitual patterns and characteristic health regimens with the potential outcome of some changes there. The First Quarter Moon in your sign of the 8th and the Gemini Full Moon of the 15th punctuate the month with increased focus on your work in the world and your determination to allow only your own deep-seated principles and values to guide you. With Pluto highlighted in early Aquarius – your sector of unconscious process and dream imagination – you are more sensitive to everything that is going on beneath the surface layers of your psyche, especially after the 21st. The December 21st Capricorn Solstice features your social sector implying the importance of friendships and community as well as goal orientation for you as you continue to make sense out of the career choices that will see you through to the 2025 year.

The month begins with the New Moon in Sagittarius on the late evening of November 30th, activating your tenth sector of career and public life. This lunation colors this whole cycle with a fresh energy and a reset in your professional world, encouraging you to align your ambitions with your higher ideals. With Mercury Retrograde in this same sector, this is a time to reflect on your long-term goals and refine how you communicate your vision and in professional spheres.

On December 3rd and 4th, Mercury in Sagittarius, or your career sector, opposes Jupiter in your sector of home and family, and your psychological roots; you may well feel an optimistic energy taking hold, within the familiarity of your family space, or be more consciously exploring the dynamics at play there.
Mars stations retrograde in Leo, your sixth sector of routines, health, and service, on December 6th. This transit can look like an inward turning of energy, an unearthing of frustrations, and the release of stuck energies that dampen your vital life-force energy. This period can feel intense, but it ultimately invites you to reflect on how your daily habits align — or don’t — with your greater aspirations and goals. Adding to this introspection, Mars opposes Pluto, now firmly in Aquarius and beginning its transformative 20-year journey through your twelfth sector of the subconscious. This opposition creates an inner tension between escapist tendencies or lingering fears and the practical adjustments needed to empower your well-being. With Pluto’s presence, deeper truths may surface, offering an opportunity to release limiting patterns and embrace a more authentic, holistic approach to your daily life. With a little grit and tenacity, this time can foster newfound motivation for healthy habits that allow you to flow and thrive.
On December 6th also, Venus joins Pluto in Aquarius and your twelfth sector aligning with Pluto until the 8th. This transit deepens your emotional awareness, inviting revelations about the hidden layers of your desires and relationships.

Use this time to nurture your spirit and explore outlets that bring peace to your heart.
On December 15th, the Full Moon in Gemini illuminates your fourth-tenth sector axis on the themes of home and family versus public life and reputation allowing their distinction to come into focus.

On same day, Mercury stations direct in Sagittarius, a key sector of your chart referencing career and professional life. This could mark a turning point in your approach to vocation and to your public persona. Mercury standing dead still in the sky does however remains in a retrograde kind of way for the next two weeks, as it slowly settles down to normal again.
The Solstice on December 21st ushers the Sun into Capricorn, activating your eleventh sector of friendships, community, and aspirations. This shift encourages you to connect with like-minded individuals who support your dreams and ideals.

This tense aspect may challenge you to reconcile your inner needs with your evolving sense of self. As Saturn continues his journey through Pisces, it reminds you of the importance of establishing your unique style of boundaries that protect your peace, personal growth, while allowing your softer, intuitive nature to flourish.
On December 29th, as the month concludes, Chiron stations direct in your second sector of finances and values, potentially offering healing insights about your relationship with your own security and self-worth. This is an opportunity to redefine what truly matters and anchor yourself in a deeper sense of abundance.
The New Moon in Capricorn on December 30th brings a fresh start in your eleventh sector of friendships and group activities, inspiring you to set intentions for your place within the collective and how you share your unique gifts with the world.
