Hi Friends,
The last month of 2025 is finally here, and what a year it’s been! The astrology of 2025 has been revealing how the world has really been operating. It revealed what is real and what is being controlled. Who the players are on a grand scale and how does humanity fit in. As 2025 draws to a close, December brings a cosmic blend of closure, optimism, and introspection.
Here are Key Astrological Transits:
December 4: Full Moon in Gemini: signifies a time for enhanced communication, mental clarity, and connection.
December 10: Neptune stations direct, signaling a potential shift in understanding or a new phase in our dreams and creativity.
December 11: Mercury enters Sagittarius, which can bring a focus on optimism, adventure, and truth-telling.
December 15: Mars enters Capricorn, encouraging a disciplined and ambitious approach to goals.
December 19: New Moon in Sagittarius, a time for setting new intentions related to expansion, exploration, and personal philosophy.
December 21: Sun enters Capricorn, marking the start of Capricorn season and the winter solstice in the Northern Hemisphere.
December 24: Venus enters Capricorn, which can bring a more practical and grounded approach to love, finances, and relationships.
What this means for you:
Focus on intentions: The New Moon in Sagittarius on the 19th is an ideal time to set intentions for future growth and new experiences.
Practical ambition: The Mars and Sun ingresses into Capricorn, followed by Venus, suggest a shift towards a more disciplined, structured, and ambitious approach to personal goals and relationships for the latter half of the month.
Emotional shifts: Neptune stationing direct may bring clarity after a period of uncertainty, allowing for a renewed sense of direction in your creative or spiritual life.
As the last month of the year begins, Venus continues to go through Sagittarius suggesting a period of optimism, adventure, and philosophical exploration in matters of love, relationships, and finances. It encourages seeking freedom and expansive connections, but may also lead to restlessness or idealism if not grounded in commitment. This transit will impact personal growth and relationships by emphasizing a desire for new experiences and broad, optimistic values.
The Full Moon on December 4, 2025, will be a “Cold Moon” and the final “Supermoon” of the year, occurring in the sign of Gemini. This combination brings a focus on communication, connection, and community efforts, alongside a potential release of old ideas and the feeling after the recent Mercury retrograde. The astrological energy suggests a time for exchanging ideas, finding creative solutions to problems, and reconnecting with others.
The term “Cold Moon” refers to the chilly winter nights of December, it is the last full moon of the year and is known for its clear, bright appearance. The “Supermoon” refers to a slightly larger and more luminous full moon. This confluence of events can bring a sense of clarity and a chance to move forward with new knowledge after a period of confusion. It’s a time to release old ways of thinking and engage with others, potentially sparking new community initiatives and creative solutions.
The end of an era and the start of new dreams begin to occur when Neptune turns direct in Pisces on December 10, 2025. This forward motion of Neptune signifies a period of spiritual clarity and the conclusion of a long cycle, where illusions are dispelled and individuals can align with their “truth”. This marks the final weeks of Neptune’s long transit through Pisces, a time for emotional cleanup, completing unfinished business, and releasing what no longer serves you, allowing you to move forward with a clearer sense of purpose.
When Mercury re-enters Sagittarius on December 11, 2025, it marks the end of a tricky retrograde period and the start of a time to apply lessons learned during its reversal. As Mercury exits its post-retrograde “shadow period,” which lasts until December 16, it encourages you to integrate the insights gained about your beliefs, travel, and communication style into your daily life. This is a time to move forward with new clarity after a period of reflection and potential confusion.
When Mars enters Capricorn on December 15, 2025, it will infuse actions and goals with disciplined determination, strategic planning, and focus on long-term achievement. This transit, which lasts until January 23, 2026, encourages individuals to channel their energy into practical, enduring success while balancing ambition with pragmatism. The period is marked by a drive for building legacies, though there is a potential for overwork if rest is not prioritized.
Key impacts of Mars in Capricorn:
Increased discipline and focus: The energy of Mars, the planet of action, will be tempered by Capricorn’s structured, pragmatic nature, leading to more strategic and disciplined efforts towards goals.
Drive for long-term success: This is a favorable time for career and long-term projects. Individuals will be motivated to build and establish legacies with a steadfast and determined approach.
Balance between ambition and pragmatism: The earthy nature of Capricorn brings a realistic approach to ambitious plans, helping to ground impulsive actions with careful planning.
Potential for overwork: The strong drive and focus can lead to a tendency to overwork or become rigid if not balanced with rest and self-care.
The New Moon in Sagittarius on December 19, 2025, is a time for setting intentions related to expansion, freedom, and truth. This period encourages bold reinvention of identity, a focus on personal growth, and new beginnings in areas like travel, higher education, and philosophy. Astrologically, it’s a time to set goals, attract optimistic connections, and launch personal plans with confidence.
How to use this energy
Set intentions: Write down your intentions for the next month, focusing on the themes of Sagittarius. Think about what you want to expand in your life.
Update your style: Aligning with the new moon’s energy by making changes to your personal style can be a powerful ritual.
Launch new ventures: The period around the new moon is a great time to launch new ventures or projects, especially those related to the Sagittarius themes listed above.
Focus on authentic expansion: Think about what “authentic expansion” means for you and set goals accordingly.
Embrace opportunities: Be open to new opportunities for travel, learning, and personal growth that may arise.
When the Sun enters Capricorn on December 21, 2025, it marks the start of Capricorn season and the Winter Solstice in the Northern Hemisphere. This celestial shift brings a more grounded, practical, and disciplined energy, encouraging a focus on traditions, organizing your life, and setting long-term goals for the upcoming year. The season is a time for reflection and building towards aspirations with perseverance and hard work.
Key events and themes of the Sun in Capricorn:
Winter Solstice: The Sun enters Capricorn on the same day as the Winter Solstice in the Northern Hemisphere, which is the shortest day and longest night of the year.
A Shift in Focus: The astrological energy shifts from the adventurous, expansive nature of Sagittarius to the more grounded and ambitious energy of Capricorn.
Focus on Goals and Traditions: This is an opportune time to organize your home, finances, and future plans. It’s also a time to honor traditions and set realistic goals for the coming year.
Discipline and Hard Work: Capricorn season encourages discipline, perseverance, and taking a methodical, “brick by brick” approach to achieving your dreams.
Reflection and Planning: It’s a period for reflection and for tying up loose ends from the previous year, preparing to start the New Year with a sense of control.
When Venus enters Capricorn on December 24, 2025, it brings a focus on responsibility, stability, and commitment in relationships and personal values. This transit may deepen romantic commitments, turn friendships into family-like bonds, and strengthen professional partnerships through shared goals and values.
Relationships: The focus shifts to long-term commitment, loyalty, and stability. You may find yourself seeking or solidifying relationships that have the potential for a lasting future.
Personal Values: Discipline, responsibility, and practicality become more important in how you approach your personal values and creative endeavors.
Social and Professional Connections: Business partnerships and friendships may strengthen through a shared sense of responsibility and commitment.
Commitment: You will likely find rewards for your devotion and reliability. This period emphasizes building a solid foundation, whether in romance, friendships, or professional life.
As we say good bye to 2025 and we begin a new chapter next year, the 2026 astrology has major cosmic plot twists and fundamental transformations, demanding a balance of bold action and disciplined self-awareness. The outer planetary shifts of Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto will trigger a collective reset and push individuals toward authenticity and long-term realizations.
2026 is an invitation to embrace change, prioritize emotional wisdom, and build a life based on authenticity and long-term purpose. Flexibility and conscious effort are important as we enter a very unprecedented year and new era.
