December 2012 Horoscopes

December 21st 2012, is a date long awaited by some folk as its the end of a 5000 year cycle in the ancient Mayan calendar. Drama queens eagerly suggest it means the end of the world is nigh, and use the unusual pattern of planets on the 21st, called a Yod (aka the finger of fate or destiny) as evidence. But 2012 has been a year where we all moved into new territory on a personal level, shifting from old mind-sets to a whole new world somehow. In this context, the end of the old world has already happened, and the Dec 21st Yod simply focuses on what comes next, the new cycle underway. To find out what this means for you read on….


Aries
21st March – 20th April
‘Be the change you want to see’ said Ghandi, and you were certainly a conduit and catalyst for change this year. Driven by an intense desire for more freedom to be yourself, particularly regarding career and status, you have been willing to roll with the punches and move with the times on this, though with an uneasy acceptance of progress, as impatience about the long-term goal sometimes made you short-sighted about what you’ve achieved so far. But you finally seem to be getting the message this month that it’s the journey as well as the destination you have to take credit for.


Taurus
21st April – 21st May
You’ve been on a real learning curve this year, maybe literally through education or via the kind of experience that only travel can bring, but however it happened it broadened your mind and opened your eyes to new views and perspectives you might not have thought possible a few years ago. This month you are challenged to put your money where your wisdom is and invest in the power of your own experience. Trust you now know who and what to trust, then share your joy accordingly.


Gemini
22nd May – 21st June
What is about to be offered, via an important new or existing relationship, is a chance to express the you that you’ve been quietly getting up to speed with this year. This is the updated you, with needs and preferences based on where you are now, and where you’re now heading, rather than who you used to be. It’s taken this long to get here, so enjoy and savour the opportunity to encounter so much more of yourself via relationships; including one in particular.

Cancer
22nd June – 22nd July
Paradoxically, it’s been a steady, stable harmony or agreement with a certain person or situation that inspired your urge for some alone time. Kind of like feeling that someone you trust has your back, it means you are free to relax and retreat. There’s a healing element to all this, with a rather spiritual tone, as the sense of wholeness you thought could only come from certain circumstances or people, you find freely available within you, thanks to your willingness to make your own positive reflection your priority (especially around the 28th)

Leo
23rd July – 23rd August
The adjustments you’ve been choosing to make (or sometimes feeling slightly pushed to make), particularly regarding home and family, might pay off this month as its time to give yourself a break and focus more fully on fun and friendship, and you’ll find those adjustments ensure the best possible opportunities arrive to do just that. It’s a full on full moon for you around the 28th, as it carries the theme of rebirth and renewal; perfect timing for the end of an era and beginning of a new you.

Virgo
24th August – 22nd September
There have been certain limits and restrictions placed on you this year that have actually helped rather than hindered your creative output in all kinds of ways, especially recently. A bit of pressure and the call for more discipline just fires your creative juices rather than dampens your spirits. The next step in this points to opportunities appearing, maybe career or financial related, that you might not know what to do with at first. It’s just requires some adjustment however, and events at the moment seem designed to help you with that.

Libra
23rd September – 23rd October
With the sun moving into your home and family angle from the 21st, it’s a time when your comfort zone can get quite crowded with visitors, and what happens around the 28th indicates a need to let go of trying to control that comfort zone and trust the process. In general, 2012 has had a family and finances theme, which is going to benefit from some great communication this month. Harmonious debate and dialogue is your aim.

Scorpio
24th October – 22nd November
You’ve had to be disciplined with yourself this year, as the urge for a total transformation of circumstances is always strong in you but you’ve been learning it serves you best to approach it in stages. This has been easier to achieve since October, and feels even easier this month, though part of this involves speaking up or speaking out about what or who you value most, which is always a challenge for Scorpio to admit. Also, what happens around the 28th is significant for long-term plans and ambitions.

Sagittarius
23rd November – 21st December
You’ve felt tested to the max in certain situations this year, over themes relating to security, stability, and self-esteem. In the darkest moments, support came where you least expected it, via some quiet moments with yourself, and you learned that keeping the faith is easier without others opinions getting in the way. However you seem to be now called to share your message of optimism with others. It’s certainly the most magical time of year for it.

Capricorn
22nd December – 20th January
This year there’s been nothing like knowing you are the boss to brighten your mood, and you play the provider role effortlessly, which has all helped so much regarding a responsibility you feel towards certain groups and gatherings. You have been feeling blessed by the growing sense of community and friendship, and there’s a particular focus on those relationships this month (especially around 28th), and it benefits you to invest your attention there, even though some adjustments may have to be made.

Aquarius
21st January – 18th February
This year, bringing structure and definition to your deepest, dearest held plans and ambitions has involved taking a behind the scenes role somehow, especially regarding work and career. It has allowed you the greatest chance for full concentration and commitment, with an almost obsessive approach to focusing on the task at hand. Now you are being challenged to relax, let go, and feed the fun-seeker in you. Can you cope with trusting all the moving parts to work without all your attention? You are about to find out.


Pisces
19th February – 20th March
Friendship and travel have blended well this year. So have friendship and education, and also finding like minds who share views and opinions that are important to you. All this pointed to a more expanded comfort zone for you; a feeling that family can mean so much more than you thought. This month there’s a suggestion that you are again looking long term linked to this; maybe through work and career perhaps? What happens around the 28th firms up the courage of your conviction regarding this.

April Horoscopes

I'm taking a break from horoscopes for a short while, but will be back, till then, here's what's happening for April... :)


Aries
21st March – 20th April
The full moon on the 6th links to your relationships; there’s a balance you are seeking, an emotional stability that you feel ready for, and the full moon amplifies this by initially drawing your attention to areas of instability. Saturn, planet of structure and foundation, helps with this around the 15th, as does Mars moving forward on the 16th, and a positive new moon in your resources chart on the 21st indicates new feelings of security around you. Communication planet Mercury is in your sign from 16th, with unexpected results on the 22nd and intense career focus around 25th.

Taurus
21st April – 21st May
It’s a struggle to find a clear focus on anything during the first week of April unless you get clear on what you want, and the full moon on the 6th brings all this to a messy, unscheduled, and disorganized head. Big turning points in key relationships and creative projects coincide with Mars moving forward from the 14th, after a long spell of backtracking over old ground, and confidence and charisma gets a boost when the sun moves into your sign from the 19th. Finally, an awesome new moon in your sign on the 21st encourages all the right moves at the right times.

Gemini
22nd May – 21st June
Excellent beginning to the month; Venus in your sign from the 3rd indicates an easy harmony with yourself and others, as well as your cash flow. Your ruler Mercury moves forward from the 4th, coinciding with some kind of turnaround linked to work and career that you’ve been waiting for, but don’t discount your own value around full moon time on the 6th. From the 14th there’s action on certain home and family matters at last, and from the 16th social life increases and you feel comfy in a crowd, especially when friends bring out your unconventional side around the 22nd.

Cancer
22nd June – 22nd July
You are so in the mood for your own comfort zones around full moon on the 6th. Don’t fight it; nurture and nourish are the keywords. And be patient with communications that feel as if they are going to run out of steam, especially on the work/career front, because after the 14th there’s a welcome turnaround that moves things along nicely, though unpredictably around the 22nd and with intensity around 25th. Love is also getting intense and a bit challenging at that time due to circumstances beyond your control, but by the 28th there’s sunshine and sweetness on offer, especially from friends and social life.


Leo
23rd July – 23rd August
From the 4th and 14th, Mercury and Mars stop taking backward steps and move forward again, which coincides with a change of mind and approach in you; now you are ready to stop second guessing and trust your urge to take action, especially on issues that are shrouded in unknown or uncontrollable factors. The sun moves into your career and status chart from the 19th which means aims and ambitions have got your attention; the new moon here on the 21st shows it’s time for a step up the ladder of success, and the 28th indicates a kind of clear the clutter phase regarding daily routine and schedules.


Virgo
24th August – 22nd September
From the 3rd, linking to career and status especially, there’s plenty of harmony and resonance with those that matter (but maybe wobbly around the 6th when an emotional full moon triggers self-worth issues). From the 4th your ruler Mercury stops moving backwards, which gives you plenty to look forward to, and from the 14th, action planet Mars does the same - no more looking back or holding back - it’s all about the future and getting the ball rolling on what’s important to you now, ending a more reflective, thoughtful, less than active phase that has been going on since late January.

Libra
23rd September – 23rd October
The full moon in your sign on the 6th is about sorting out priorities right now; what feels balanced, what feels a little out of touch with what you prefer? Relationships in general are moving forward from the 14th, but especially regarding romance; no more feeling like fate is thwarting your best efforts, things feel much more straightforward, especially from the 21st, which marks a new stage in trust and intimacy. Final week is challenging for signing on dotted line of anything; there’s unpredictable or unexpected elements on the 22nd and hidden dynamics on the 25th that make any process feel heavier than usual.

Scorpio
24th October – 22nd November
Things move forward regarding creative projects from the 4th, but handle friendships or group involvement with a bit of care at that time as confusion or misunderstandings are too easy till around the 21st. In love, partners are more clued up about what they want than you are; what happens around the full moon on the 6th reveals just how oblivious you are. Things become more settled by the 19th on this; especially after your relationship new moon on the 21st which coincides with either a brand new phase in existing relationships or a shiny new romance designed to make you sparkle.

Sagittarius
23rd November – 21st December
Venus moves into your love sign from the 3rd, which means things are looking up in love, though watch your imagination doesn’t play tricks on you during full moon time around the 6th as it’s easy to think the worst, but also don’t let others define your level of power in a situation. Mars moves forward on the 14th, first time since January, so this coincides with a big turning point regarding career/status maybe that was on hold for a while. New moon on the 21st is also highlighted regarding this; there’s positive change and new momentum in daily routine and schedules especially linking to career.


Capricorn
22nd December – 20th January
Communication you’ve been waiting for gets moving after the 4th; just ready for an emotionally expressive full moon time to move you to speak your heart about current aims and ambitions. Your relentless urge for transformation has fixated on a quest for a totally new you for quite some time, but this mother of all make-overs is changing pace for now. Don’t let lack of confidence hold you back around the 15th, and don’t let family issues rain on your parade around the 25th; hold to that and rewards are seen from the 28th when the change of pace reveals a change you were seeking all along.

Aquarius
21st January – 18th February
Mercury ends backward steps in your finance and resources chart from the 4th, which indicates communication moving things forward after recent delays. Big dreams occupy your mind around full moon on the 6th, so don’t let practicalities put you off, let your imagination wander. Mars moves forward for first time since late January from the 14th, symbolising your willingness to trust yourself to the unknown a bit more and linking to this, relationships are likely to feel more settled and secure from the 19th simply because you are more settled and secure within yourself. Around the 22nd expect the unexpected regarding communication, news and information.


Pisces
19th February – 20th March
Mercury stops moving backwards in your sign from the 4th, which indicates a positive change of mind or turning point regarding your approach with others in certain situations; suddenly you know what to say and how to respond (new moon on the 21st symbolises clear and successful communication too). Love and romance is also highlighted all month. Around the 6th it’s to do with trust, intimacy and questions of how much is too much revealed on an emotional level, then from the 14th actions speak louder than words, for the first time since late January.

March Horoscopes

Aries
21st March – 20th April
March has a fairly straightforward feel, but it’s not flat or boring. First week you might be breaking boundaries or breaking hearts when it comes to relationships. Mercury retrogrades in Aries from the 12th indicating a change of mind coming from you that alters your direction or approach to certain situations significantly. Midmonth is particularly amazing for a make-over of career/long-term plans, and you might notice links to November 2011 with this too. From 20th the sun hits your sign for a few weeks, symbolising new activity of a unique and original nature; especially around new moon time on the 22nd.

Taurus
21st April – 21st May
Your ruler Venus moves into your sign from the 5th. Venus is a Goddess because she knows her own worth, so expect plenty of opportunity to know yours too, especially when it comes to friendship and group participation as it’s a sweetly social month but also a time for claiming your own creative power, especially around the 13th when Venus reminds you that you are your own lucky charm, so don’t bother believing the power is outside of you. Mercury retrograde from the 12th might mean insomnia at times, but sleepless nights brings brainwaves and inspired ideas around the 29th.

Gemini
22nd May – 21st June
Social life suddenly steps up a gear or two during first week, which takes your mind off work/home conflicts of attention (all amplified on the 4th). Your ruler Mercury goes retrograde from the 12th, which changes the pace of your involvement with groups, gatherings and friendships, perhaps in a way that re-opens past connections in some way too (especially around 18th), but can also lead to new contacts and connections from the 20th. Midmonth there’s a special pattern of planets that echo events last November. Unfinished business is back again for the purpose of moving you forward emotionally, so trust the process.

Cancer
22nd June – 22nd July
The full moon on the 8th might bring certain conflicts to conclusion thanks to good communication opening minds and hearts to solutions. Midmonth love and romance gets deep, meaningful and transformative (especially on 13th), and it’s also a month for setting strong new career/ambition intentions, with Mercury retrograde from the 12th encouraging a review of aims and ideas, and the sun bursting into life in this angle of your chart from the 20th, boosting creativity, while a fab new moon here on the 22nd gives the green light to any plans featuring an alternative or unusual approach.

Leo
23rd July – 23rd August
You’re in the mood for new horizons, whether it’s literally travelling, or whether it’s expanding your mind through education and learning, but with Mercury retrograde from the 12th, it’s likely to include a revisit or reconnection with the past in some way. The new moon on the 22nd is all about the new experiences that unexpected or unpredictable journeys can bring, so embrace delays or schedule changes, and don’t get too attached to a certain destination being ‘the one’. Midmonth is superb for career expansion and daily routine make-over, while relationships are awakening you to new perspective of yourself.

Virgo
24th August – 22nd September
Your ruler Mercury moves into your house of trust and intimacy from the 2nd, and it’s all about speaking your truth and trusting what happens next. Events around the 4th act as a trigger for this, and a full moon in your sign on the 8th brings certain aspects to an emotional head. Mercury retrogrades from the 12th, symbolising a change of mind about your approach, and the new moon on the 22nd might bring some surprising or unexpected revelations from you or others on a truth-telling theme. The 13th is worth making a note of; it’s important unfinished business with links to last November.

Libra
23rd September – 23rd October
It’s all about relationships this month. First week of March you’re at odds with yourself; arguing for limitations and feeling a pendulum swing of emotions. But Midmonth you’ve had enough of that; Mercury retrograde from the 12th, symbolises a review process underway, which can reconnect you to who you really feel you want to be as a partner. What happened last November is somehow important again around the 13th, and the sun sheds a warm glow on relationships from the 20th; a fabulously unpredictable new moon on the 22nd reveals events designed to shatter the limitations that felt so hindering earlier in the month.

Scorpio
24th October – 22nd November
The relationship road is a little bumpy first half of March; others stand up to your shadow side when you’re in full flow, but this just inspires respect and awe from you, after all there’s nothing to contend with like a Scorpio shadow. Enjoy events mid-month; there’s a very special planet pattern for you at that time that can make life and love feel you’re in heaven with the door shut. There’s some kind of connection with events last November too in this; maybe unfinished business? Day to day routines and schedule’s need sorting from the 12th, and a new design for the day is ushered in from the 22nd.

Sagittarius
23rd November – 21st December
Creative work is a bigger focus for you from the 2nd, and perhaps more so from the 12th when Mercury retrogrades (appears to move backwards), symbolising changes of direction or a turnaround in your approach… basically it all goes a bit retro creatively; and also in love too, as you reconnect with faces or places from your romantic past. Watch what happens around the 22nd in all this as the new moon is throwing some welcome surprises your way. Events around midmonth, especially around the 13th, are worth staying positive about; it’s uplifting, transformative and possibly work or ambition related, with links to late last November.

Capricorn
22nd December – 20th January
Your ruler Saturn is retrograde right now (appearing to move backwards) so retreading old ground and past history has got your attention (especially first week of March). So it might not be the easiest task to stay present at times, but the here and now is where it’s at this month. In other words don’t close down or shut others out; hear them where they are right now. And stay open for creative inspiration for a project, especially around the 13th, as a fabulous unusual planet pattern is around midmonth that has positive transformation and expansion for you stamped all over it.

Aquarius
21st January – 18th February
What happens around the 4th in particular speaks of self-doubt reflecting through circumstances; in other words, external tensions and pressures are mirroring inner conflicts and second guessing. There might be a bit of this connected to communication once Mercury retrogrades from the 12th too. Backtracking and changes of pace can be frustrating, but it all adds up to a stronger urge for some freedom of mind via freedom of expression, something which the new moon shouts on about for you, around the 22nd. Also, midmonth there’s some emotional alchemy; don’t push away negative feeling, there’s treasure in there somewhere.


Pisces
19th February – 20th March
A full moon in your house of relationships on the 8th brings out into the open any criticism or judgments you’ve been trying to keep to yourself about a certain someone. Unexpected perhaps, but it can clear clutter between you. Midmonth your words are extra powerful and have impact, so use them wisely. There’s something that links back to late November in this, perhaps via dialogue or messages. Also there’s strong focus on finance: from the 12th you are reviewing your approach in this area of your life, and around 22nd there’s fabulous new ideas and intentions that keep turning into flurries of activity.

Horoscopes for February 2012

Aries
21st March – 20th April
On the 3rd, Neptune moves into your 12th house of retreat and reflection for the next 14 years, symbolising a stronger connection developing with your imagination and non-physical or spiritual development. It means that yes, you will still be the action-orientated, feisty soul you always were, but intuition, ESP, synchronicity, etc, are all going to become more meaningful because of the benefit they provide when you go with that flow. Test it out around the new moon on the 21st, as your intuition is flowing strong about relationship or partnership issues in very positive ways, so listen to what it says.

Taurus
21st April – 21st May
Early this month, Neptune moves into the angle of your chart that deals with friendship, teamwork, and also your own hopes, wishes and dreams for the future. This is a good place for Neptune to be, because it’s a planet associated with imagination (the place where all wishes and dreams are born and raised to fruition), and also compassion and non-judgement, which is just the sort of quality you want in strong, close friendships and team work. See what happens on the 21st linked to this, when a positive new moon links to Saturn retrograde: it’s all about new beginnings from restructuring.

Gemini
22nd May – 21st June
Big news for long term plans and ambitions, especially career related, this month. From the 3rd, Neptune begins a journey lasting 14 years through this angle of your chart. Neptune is the planet of dreams, and symbolises how dreams must be grounded or they turn to dusty disillusionment. It doesn’t take much to ground even the biggest dream; it’s just a case of believing it before you see it, rather than waiting to see then believe, and this is Neptune’s domain. See the evidence of this all month, but especially the 21st, which is just fabulous for getting creative with career or any long-term ambition.

Cancer
22nd June – 22nd July
Neptune is moving into the angle of your chart that deals with your perspective on the world. It means that until 2026 there’s times when you’re going to feel very warm and fuzzy indeed about life, love and the universe, and times when your understanding might feel a little foggy to say the least. This foggy feel tends to happen when other people’s cynical beliefs makes you question your own peaceful ideals, so don’t let others trip you up with doubt. Events around the new moon on the 21st show your increasing willingness to believe that humanity has a heart of gold after all.

Leo
23rd July – 23rd August
From the 3rd, Neptune moves into the area of your chart that deals with trust and intimacy. Relationships are the obvious area that this impacts, but there’s also links with financial interests, as it’s about what you trust or don’t trust about money and possessions too. Neptune symbolises imagination and insight, and the positive or negative implications of all that; it can dissolve bad feelings or amplify false perception, depending on what you trust to be true about yourself (and therefore others). The new moon on the 21st mixes recent relationship issues with good communication, for a taster of the positive impact of Neptune’s presence.

Virgo
24th August – 22nd September
Your relationship ruler, Neptune, moves into the relationship angle of your chart from the 3rd, for a once in a lifetime stay, till 2026 (it’s a slow moving planet!). Neptune is comfy and happy there, and it’s going to ensure all kinds of relationships sort themselves out like never before as you want comfy good feelings, just like Neptune. You aren’t willing to settle for less than an agenda of warm fuzzy wellbeing, even though that might have felt less than realistic before now. Around the 21st, the new moon helps barriers dissolve and hearts open, in ways that shows you what’s now possible from here.

Libra
23rd September – 23rd October
During the heightened emotions of the full moon on the 7th, responsibility planet Saturn reverses direction, which might indicate another rethink regarding current commitments and duties, as well as some restructuring or rescheduling of some plans, but the backburner is a temporary place for plans right now, so don’t fret if things are on hold. From the 3rd, Neptune moves into your house of health and fitness till 2026. On the negative side this might mean hypochondria or mysterious symptoms, but on the positive side, health/fitness happens effortlessly, with no concrete evidence why. So stay positive.

Scorpio
24th October – 22nd November
Neptune, planet of creative imagination and visualisation, moves into your house of fun, amusement and pleasure from the 3rd (till 2026!). It’s all about adding an extra dimension to your entertainment experience, and an extra string to your bow regarding creative expression. Romance will blossom, music and art will nourish, and spirituality might feel more intriguing. A lovely new moon around the 21st is all about getting used to the flow of all this, while Saturn retrograde from the 7th speaks of getting out of your own way to avoid tripping over endless possibilities and probabilities.

Sagittarius
23rd November – 21st December
From the 3rd, Neptune, planet of imagination, intuition, and illusion, moves into the angle of your chart that deals with home, family, and early memories. Neptune is staying here till 2026, so it means there’s going to be a new vibe shaping events in these areas for many years to come. It represents an urge to dissolve boundaries and limits; to experience that sometimes mystical sense of oneness that, for example, a sexy, sassy song or sunset inspires. The negative illusion only occurs if you feel less than what inspires the feeling of awe in you. No pedestals here, we’re all one and the same, remember.

Capricorn
22nd December – 20th January
Your ruler Saturn begins a retrograde (reverse motion) phase from the 7th, which can indicate a change of direction regarding ambitions, especially career plans. For the next few months it’s all about restructuring and redevelopment, which might tie in an interesting way with imaginative, intuitive Neptune’s arrival in your house of communications from the 3rd (arriving for a 14 year visit); especially around new moon time on the 21st. This is the time certain communication barriers or limitations might begin to dissolve, or you have an almost telepathic sense of timing in talks and messaging that opens more meaningful dialogue.

Aquarius
21st January – 18th February
From the 3rd, Neptune begins a 14 year journey through your house of money and resources. Neptune is famously slippery as soap when it comes to defining what’s tangible and touchable, which, for example, shouldn’t really bode well for manifesting more purchase power. However, Neptune is also the personal ruler of your resource chart, which means it’s right at home here, and its unfocused, undefined approach will serve you especially well whenever you feel tuned in, happy, and at one with yourself. Though mind, if you’re at odds with yourself, it can get messy.

Pisces
19th February – 20th March
The big news this month is your ruling planet Neptune moves into your sign from the 3rd. It’s big because it’s a once in a lifetime experience (last time was 1848!), and also because it’s staying for 14 years. Neptune in your own sign is going to feel cosy as its right at home and on your wavelength, so enjoy some very compatible vibes from now on. See what happens from the 19th when the sun joins Neptune and puts you in the spotlight somehow, and also the 21st for a really special new moon in your sign, emphasising a new sense of trust developing in yourself.
