Happy December, Aquarius! Last month, you stayed off social media during an eclipse to lower the risk of drama. Get ready because December brings another eclipse, but don’t worry; you can even use this one to your advantage. But first, on Wednesday, December 1, the dreamy planet Neptune goes direct in intuitive Pisces. It’s been retrograde since Friday, June 25. During the past few months, you went through the painful but necessary process of identifying which relationships have long-term potential and which ones are only projects or your attempts to change someone. When Neptune goes direct, any lingering partnerships based on illusions will fall apart. But fear not: better people are coming to take their place. 

As promised, a new moon solar eclipse in Sagittarius occurs on Saturday, December 4. Yes, eclipses can be chaotic and bring sudden change, but that’s not always a bad thing. This total solar eclipse is all about beginnings. So while giving in to the temptation to stalk your ex will likely be anxiety-provoking, keep your heart open to new love this weekend, Aquarius. This may mean a first date or maturely working out an issue in your current partner. As long as you stay grounded in the present, this eclipse can bring positive romantic news. 

On Monday, December 13, the warrior planet Mars enters adventurous Sagittarius and turns your attention to your public image. Circle this date in your calendar and watch out for professional acclaim. You like to pretend that you’re too cool for school, Aquarius, but you adore attention as much as anyone. You’ve worked hard over the past year and likely were met with pandemic-related work challenges. So, whether it’s an award or praise from your boss, permit yourself to soak it in. On this same date, Monday, December 13, the communication planet Mercury enters entrepreneurial Capricorn, helping you accept your praise and acclaim with grace. Don’t forget to pat yourself on the back, too.

Turn your attention to books or political causes close to your heart during the full moon in busy Gemini on Saturday, December 18. Whether it’s fighting for Black Lives Matter, the quality of education in your town, or for queer rights, you have a humanitarian streak, Aquarius. During the busy holiday season, it can be easy to lose touch with this side of you. But it’s essential to care and nurture it, and the full moon, ripe for manifestation, is an ideal time.  

Circle Sunday, December 19 in your calendar because the stars are busy. First, the comet Chiron, known as the “wounded healer,” ends its retrograde, where it’s been since Thursday, July 15. During Chiron retrograde, you began the painful process of identifying and then healing childhood wounds. When the heavenly body goes direct, the universe wants you to put that progress into action. For you, aloof Aquarius, that means being honest and direct about your feelings and no more messing with lovers’ hearts just because you have commitment issues. It’s time to grow up and work through them.
