Aries Weekly Horoscope

A chatty full moon in your sphere of local connections shines on something or someone significant. What or who stands out around Sunday? You’re going places as this is a social and restless energy that supports your own self-expression in the world. As always, aim yourself directly toward what you want to achieve and take steps toward it. Mercury finally finishes up its retrograde on the same day, so note those grand ideas that will expand your horizons. What tweaks are you making on plans, study, or your overarching philosophy? On Saturday, the winter solstice marks the sun’s move into the sign of Capricorn for the next month, spotlighting your career sphere. This is a great time to strategize and plan. Status, recognition, and reputation are standards of the professional and public sector; build yours so it’s ready when you need it.

Taurus Weekly Horoscope

The full moon in your sphere of income, possessions, and values highlights your emotional connection to not just your “stuff” but to language and ideas. You can be a little possessive at the best of times, and yes, it’s important to protect your I.P. (intellectual property). However, practice being less ‘stuffy’ and let the air flow (ideas) as well. Find that perfect balance between what is yours and what is best resourced with the hive mind. Sharing with others in a way that benefits you is a step toward a sustainable circular economy, whether that’s with clients or someone very close. Mercury is finally direct in your zone of other people’s money, the metaphysical, and intimacy. Did you have the talks, go over the information, find the forms, fill them out? Whatever it is with comms in these areas, find the opportunities to expand your world.

Gemini Weekly Horoscope

A full moon in your sign on Sunday suggests your sails are billowing, and you’re on the move. This one is extra gusty as Jupiter, the planet of excess and optimism, is in your sign and merged with the full moon. That means extra on the feels, the need to talk (a lot), and share from the heart. Connect with friends, make a date with your special person/people, or commit to exploring your ideas and a burning curiosity. Your ruling planet, Mercury, switches to direct motion also on Sunday, so plans are more likely to progress forward. What trip down memory lane did you enjoy this time? Who popped up or came into focus? Any crossed wires over the last three weeks? Capricorn season begins on Saturday, so taking a mature approach to shared resources is advised. Think and act long-term in this department.

Cancer Weekly Horoscope

Sunday’s full moon peaks in your Zen zone, so tune into the moon and pick up on your gut instincts. What does your intel say? Do you listen to it? The volume is dialed right up, and the station may keep switching. This is very restless energy, so take time to settle and focus. Catch some quiet moments alone, stick to warm, nourishing food, and open up a dialogue with your inner self/higher mind. Ask, “What would my higher or best version of me do in this situation?” if you have a query. This is a chatty, social, and quickly changing energy. Move fast, don’t linger long, share information, and you’re nailing the assignment. Balance with routines that open up and expand your mind or opportunities at work, and keep up a physical wellness routine. With Mercury finally out of retrograde, a work prospect or direction is clear or opportune. Make your move. Favoring your one-to-ones, Capricorn season begins on Saturday; line up dates with bae and bestie.

Leo Weekly Horoscope

This is your biggest festive season weekend, with the full moon lighting up your social sphere like a stadium. In the curious sign of Gemini and merged with the planet of expansion, it’s time to super friend or work the room like you’ve never worked it before. Get names, numbers, dates, facts, and figures. Go to a party, or ten, host or leave it up to fate and follow the wind. If you have a clear outcome to guide your socializing, that’s going to keep some guardrails on. Are you looking for information, a certain type of experience, or people? What were you intending, initiating, or wishing for six months ago? This is the fulfillment or grand reveal from that time. What are you harvesting? Balance your social commitments and interests by investing time into your own creativity, children, or time off to recharge and do your own thing.

Virgo Weekly Horoscope

Illuminating your career and public image sector, Sunday’s full moon may spotlight you with a little more exposure than you usually like. So, go with it and make the most of the airtime. The tension it puts on you to be so exposed can be transformed as energy, so show up and glow up if you’re feeling restless. If your mind is buzzing, take action to direct your energy rather than overthinking. Share from the heart, share a story, or consciously frame your narrative for others. We’re all our own publicity machines, so consider what you’re sharing, why, and how your “brand” reads. This way, you have more control over public perception and the response you get back. Mercury has finished its retrograde in your domestic sphere. What came to your attention over the last three weeks or so? It’s time to take action to expand your base.

Libra Weekly Horoscope

Big ideas, big plans—talk about it, research options, and brainstorm ideas to get the ball rolling. This is a fruition moment from plans or ideas set in motion six months ago. Perhaps you’re ready to hit purchase, board your plane, or sign up for that digital course. Or are you putting your ideas into a format to share with others? Whatever la luna spotlights, it’s about communication and allowing curiosity to be your guide. Balance those big ideas and perhaps international influences by grounding them into your own local community. With Mercury finally out of retrograde in this sphere, what might you be ready to share at a local, grassroots level? Or what network and connections are you ready to weave together? This is a high, fast, and fun energy for your sign—enjoy the uplift and jot down ideas to build on later.

Scorpio Weekly Horoscope

La luna lights up your sphere of shared resources, intimacy, and metaphysics, so note what comes up for you over the weekend. Opportunities, growth, and optimism are available—just don’t overdo it, and if you do, make sure you have an exit plan! Communication is everything, so sharpen your bedside manner. Or is it the unsaid that you’re picking up on in the room? Balance shared projects and resources by growing your personal assets, property, or intellectual property. With Mercury out of retrograde, it’s time to implement that money-making or investment idea. Some steps may still be best to work on rather than full steam ahead, but you can draw up your plan or course of action now.

Sagittarius Weekly Horoscope

Sunday’s full moon is opposite your sign in Gemini, lighting up your sphere of partnership, so note what themes present. Twinning, doubles, stimulating ideas, and perhaps clever double entendres are all themes of this gusty air sign. Make it a social weekend and keep moving rather than getting bogged down in too long or heavy a topic, place, or party. Work on an idea or project of your own, get your message out, or welcome new faces to your social landscape. Communication and information, as well as travel (and how to finance it), are lit by these full lunar beams. What is revealed? Mercury is finally direct in your sign—thoughts, ideas, or intel from the last three weeks? What came up? Capricorn season lights up your financial sphere starting Saturday. Time to get serious and make a budget or financial strategy.

Capricorn Weekly Horoscope

A full moon in your sphere of work, wellness, and the routines that underpin them suggests a focus on this area of your life. What are your feelings around work, emotional connections, and a spotlight on something or someone in particular? It’s essential to communicate from your heart, share ideas, and celebrate those that feel special. Mercury is finally direct in your sphere of dreams and rest, so reconfigure your connection to your inner landscape. Note your dreams over this period—they are very revealing! Enter Capricorn—it’s your season starting Saturday, and you deserve to shine. Happy birthday! Remember, you are the zodiacal boss, the great parent energy, and you have our respect, Capricorn!

Aquarius Weekly Horoscope

As the full moon peaks in sister air sign Gemini, the conversation and ideas flow. Make full use of time off to pursue your curiosity, a hobby, or an interest. Is it time to pen your memoir, business plan, or opus? This is a harvest point for ideas set in motion six months ago. What did you begin, seed, or wish for at that time? Can you see the results now? Note what is revealed either internally or externally. The previous week leading up to this full moon may express that theme. Since the moon is about our emotional life, look to what feels most pressing, exciting, or the direction you feel you want to take. Mercury is out of retrograde, making it a prime time to move ahead in a slightly different or updated direction in your sphere of groups, clubs, memberships, and friendships. Connect a major interest or passion with your peers or people.

Pisces Weekly Horoscope

Sunday’s full moon shines bright, illuminating conversations and connections in your domestic sphere. What ideas or wishes were on your to-do list six months ago? This is a culmination point of that cycle—what has bubbled up? If you consciously request your higher mind/subconscious to reveal something in particular to you, you’re more likely to see it. Try it. This lunation sets up a challenge for you to articulate a dream or vision. If it’s still “a feeling,” try writing it out. If you were writing a scene or drawing up a storyboard, how would the story look and unfold? Or perhaps this is your moment to set an idea out and get a project started. With Mercury no longer retrograde in your professional and public image sphere, consider how you’re expanding on your work so far. Take a leap of faith.
