Horoscope: December 27, 2017
Your stars
Aries | March 20 – April 18
Although Mercury’s retrograde cycle ended last Saturday, you’re still dealing with the fallout from the confusion it caused, and will be until mid-January. Annoying as the resulting delays are, what you learn in the process of untangling those errors and misunderstandings will more than compensate for any inconvenience or irritation you experience.
Taurus | April 19 – May 19
Tempting as it is to say a firm ‘no’ to ideas that seem disruptive, if not unrealistic, with both the Sun and Saturn having just moved into one of the most inquisitive portions of your chart, it’s time to make some changes. If you’re uneasy about what’s arisen, for now, do no more than explore them.
Gemini | May 20 – June 20
Last week both the Sun and sternly practical Saturn moved to accent financial and business matters, especially those that involve others. While it may take awhile for you to become accustomed to the resulting demanding approach, what you learn and the problems you avoid will more than justify the effort required.
Cancer | June 21 – July 21
For ages you’ve been trying to discuss and rethink certain arrangements that have been as they are for so long, you fear changes would cause upset. While those concerns are understandable, the odds are good others will be relieved you suggested it, and be only too happy to discuss taking things further.
Leo | July 22 – August 21
The last thing you’re in the mood for is an analysis of situations in which others have been unfairly treated. While it’s true, you’d have spoken up, immediately and clearly. But not everybody has your courage. The individual in question needs your support and some suggestions of how to handle the situation.
Virgo | August 22 – September 21
Although the Full Moon is nearly a week from now, because it accents existing issues with friends or loved ones, you’re already aware issues are pressing. But, unusually for you, it’s unclear what’s needed. For now, wait, watch and listen. By the actual Full Moon, on Tuesday, you’ll know what to do. DR Full Moon
Libra | September 22 – October 22
Of the twelve signs, you’re the least likely to force issues or badger anybody into getting involved in something that doesn’t interest them. Yet your efforts to achieve certain objectives yet be discreet are achieving little. Since your objectives are no secret, discuss them frankly and openly, asking for the views of others.
Scorpio | October 23 – November 21
Understandably, you’re concerned about the influence of the sudden, exciting, but unsettling events reshaping your life and certain longstanding arrangements. True, this may seem worrying now. However, these are meant to be. In fact, within days you’ll realise others aren’t just excited, they’ll do all they can to ensure things work out.
Sagittarius | November 22 – December 20
Some months ago you agreed to certain arrangements either because they made sense at the time or, possibly, the actual circumstances you were facing gave you no choice. But times have changed and so have your requirements. Enough you’ll be able to rethink these, if not bring them to an end.
Capricorn | December 21 – January 18
While, obviously, you shouldn’t ignore the intriguing ideas or offers indicated by Mars’ superb alliance to the planet of vision, Neptune, you’re worryingly short of facts. The real problem is you’ve been drawn into believing these are more promising than, based on reliable information they really are. Explore them, but with caution.
Aquarius | January 19 – February 17
For ages there’s been talk of serious changes in arrangements that are so familiar, and so stable, that you’d assumed they’d always remain as they are. However, with both expansive Jupiter and the planet of focus, Saturn, moving into new positions within a short period, those changes aren’t just likely, they’re unavoidable.
Pisces | February 18 – March 19
If ever there was a time to stand up for yourself it’s now. In fact, the powerful link between the courageous Mars and your ruler Neptune suggests that you’ll not only be able to explain to others why certain issues are of such significance, you’ll also discover new ways to deal with them.
