Horoscope: December 21, 2017

Your Stars Today

Aries | March 20 – April 18



Few things are more upsetting than finding out somebody has been underhand or, worse, dishonest with you. Before you go further, ask the individual in question about the actual situation. You may be surprised to discover that despite the way things seem, their intentions were good. So good, in fact, you’ll be deeply touched.

Taurus | April 19 – May 19



Earlier this year, you toyed with the idea of reorganising elements of your life that have become predictable if not just plain dull. But soon other events distracted you. Once again, you’re experiencing those restless feelings, except this time it’s unlikely you’ll allow anything or anybody to stop you making those changes.

Gemini | May 20 – June 20



Sooner or later you’ll have to make decisions about things that have been being discussed for weeks and still aren’t settled. While, ordinarily, that would be worrying, it’s actually for the best. In fact, with both the practical Saturn and the Sun moving to accent these arrangements, things could change, and possibly overnight.

Cancer | June 21 – July 21



Every sign will be influenced by the move by the planet of focus, Saturn, and the Sun into Capricorn. However, because this shift accents close alliances, personal and otherwise, events involving others won’t just take on significance. What arises next week could become a crucial part of your existence.

Leo | July 22 – August 21



With both your ruler the Sun and practical Saturn now accenting various ongoing arrangements or obligations, the time has come for a serious review. And, quite possibly, some equally serious changes. They’ve been on your mind for ages. Unsettling as these will be, deep down you know these aren’t just timely, they’re long overdue.

Virgo | August 22 – September 21



Several of the planetary powerhouses are moving into new positions during December. This means changes in even longstanding arrangements aren’t just likely, they’re inevitable. While you’ve undoubtedly already had to deal with several such changes, this week promises yet more. Knowing that, if you must make plans, ensure what you organise is as flexible as possible.

Libra | September 22 – October 22



Now that both the Sun and the practical Saturn have moved into the portion of your chart that has to do with where and how you live, certain domestic issues must come first. While conflicts are inevitable, these have been on your mind for ages, so resolving them will be a huge relief.

Scorpio | October 23 – November 21



You haven’t been secretive, as much as others have had absolutely no interest in learning certain vital facts. Warn them once again this lack of knowledge could cause them problems, then back off and let things unfold as they must. This won’t be easy, but forces the individuals in question to face those facts.

Sagittarius | November 22 – December 20



Since 2015 you’ve been dealing with the powerful, if occasionally challenging, influence of stern Saturn in Sagittarius. While you’ve already recognised many of the dilemmas you faced as worthwhile, eventually you’ll begin to realise just how much you learnt from those that, when they arose, seemed both unfair and impossible.

Capricorn | December 21 – January 18



During periods of profound change, such as this is, seemingly minor events can lead to powerful and rewarding developments, while what appear to be worthwhile offers won’t work out. Knowing that, explore everything but steer clear of the variety of commitments that you might have problems rethinking or reorganising.

Aquarius | January 19 – February 17



Only now that you’re able to look back on unwelcome if not seriously worrying events or changes is it clear how worthwhile they are. In fact, what seemed most worrying at the time has been revealed to be a welcome breakthrough. Remember this when yet more arise over the coming days.

Pisces | February 18 – March 19



The last thing you’re in the mood to do is take a tough line with somebody who’s argumentative on the best of days. But if you think carefully about what, and how much, you say they’ll merrily highjack your plans or ideas and adapt them to suit their vision. The less you reveal, the better.
