Horoscope: December 16, 2017

Your Stars Today

Aries | March 20 – April 18



Exciting as the changes currently taking place are, there’s no denying they’re disruptive. While you merely find this irritating, certain individuals are simply ignoring these. Not only is this unwise, these changes won’t vanish. Delve into them on your own, so when the time comes, you can give others a hand.

Taurus | April 19 – May 19



For ages you’ve been seeking a way to sustain certain cherished arrangements, and the accompanying  word activities, but deal with recent inevitable changes. While you’ve organised plans, you’ve been unsure they’d work. Now that those changes are taking place, and without drama, you can congratulate yourself. You got it right.

Gemini | May 20 – June 20



Monday’s New Moon ushers in a fresh perspective, even on seemingly rigid arrangements and, importantly, accents close alliances. Unsettling as the changes that arise seem, and as opposed as certain individuals may be, you’re confident they’re wise. Not only are those instincts sound, they’re correctly telling you those changes are long overdue.

Cancer | June 21 – July 21



Don’t be surprised if those who, only recently, committed enthusiastically to certain plans must now back out. This has nothing to do with the actual arrangements or their loyalty. Rather, things are moving swiftly, so much so that you, too, may soon find yourself having to make similar changes in your own arrangements.

Leo | July 22 – August 21



During times of dramatic growth and development, such as this is, it’s easy to feel swamped by the changes reshaping elements of your life. Yet, by and large, these have been no surprise. The biggest challenge, in fact, is dismantling the arrangements you made so you could avoid dealing with these.

Virgo | August 22 – September 21



If ever there was a time to listen to every idea and explore every offer, including those that are unappealing or seem unrealistic, it’s now. This is partly because you’re unaware of vital facts. As important, however, is the realisation that everything you learn will equip you with helpful, if often surprising, insights.

Libra | September 22 – October 22



The stunning links between both the Sun and your ruler Venus to Uranus, planet of innovation and the unexpected, may promise shakeups. Worrying as that sounds, deep down you know these are necessary and, after the dust settles, will leave the actual circumstances in question, and you and others, better off.

Scorpio | October 23 – November 21



In early October, the fortunate Jupiter moved into Scorpio, for a year’s stay. Hopefully you’ve already realised that, often, what’s best is most unexpected if not seriously disruptive, at least when it first appears. Bear this in mind and instead of battling changes that seem worryingly sudden, you’ll embrace them.

Sagittarius | November 22 – December 20



Certain individuals seem determined to convince you to commit to plans. However, you’re not only hesitant, as good as their intentions are, they’ve a tendency to get excited about what they’d do well, not you. That being the case, thank them politely, but say you need time to explore for yourself.

Capricorn | December 21 – January 18



Life would be a lot easier if you could make decisions once and be done with it. But between Mercury being retrograde in the most strategic angle of your chart and your ruler Saturn moving into Capricorn in a few days’ time, even the simplest of plans are unlikely to last long.

Aquarius | January 19 – February 17



If ever there was a time to be frank about both here and now goals, your future objectives and even your dreams, it’s now. True, in the past, very few have cared. However, because the current powerful planetary setup is triggering changes, in some form, for everybody, you’ll be surprised how interested others are.

Pisces | February 18 – March 19 



If you have your heart set on certain plans, goals or even a personal passion, but are getting nowhere, don’t despair. Be patient. Obstacles are preventing progress until the 28th. At that time, the potent link between Mars and your ruler Neptune will make things happen, and in a completely magical way.
