Horoscopes
Aries
Keep in mind that decisions made today may result from exaggerated perceptions or misinformation, dear Aries. This way, you may decide not to invest too much in what you hear or even see, and instead enjoy yourself. Helping you along is the Moon spending the day in your sector of fun, self-expression, play, and romance. Social interaction is favored, but even if you want to only spend a little time on your own doing something you enjoy, you’ll be in great shape now. Misleading information aside, the day holds good-natured energy for sharing and cooperating.
Taurus
The Moon spends the full day in your home and family sector, dear Taurus, making it a great time to enjoy familiar comforts, people, and settings. This is a day for building your sense of safety, belonging, and support before busier, more interactive days ahead. Inner restlessness may be an issue, however, as Mercury and Jupiter are forming a tense aspect, and there can be some truth-stretching or dramatic thinking and conversations. Avoid spending too much time deciding the best path — your gut feelings may serve you better than mentally tossing around possibilities. Keeping in mind that what you say or hear may be exaggerated, you can enjoy yourself without committing to anything substantial.
Gemini
The Moon spends the day in your communications sector, dear Gemini, pleasantly piquing your curiosity. It can be a most interesting day, although rumors heard now are likely to be wrong or exaggerated! There is a distinct tendency for us to miss the crucial details and hone in on the things that don’t honestly matter in the long run. This is due to a minor but challenging aspect between Jupiter and retrograde Mercury. However, if you aim to avoid investing too much energy or faith in what you hear, you can enjoy the interactions you have today.
Cancer
The Moon spends the day in your resources sector, dear Cancer, and you can be focused on settling in and getting comfortable. There can be big ideas floating around you today, but because there is a tendency to blow things out of proportion right now, you should probably listen to them with one ear. Allow yourself to dream up new possibilities but avoid pouring too much time and energy into thee things for the time being. Give yourself time to process and digest. Pushing your opinions can be a compulsion now, but probably won’t satisfy you. Give yourself time before arriving at conclusions.
Leo
Your emotions are up front and center today, dear Leo, and while your desire for independence can briefly clash with your need for family and comfortable settings, it’s a healthy day for pursuing personal interests overall. It can be difficult focusing on priorities today, however. It’s exceptionally easy to leave out the unpleasant details and glamorize the past, but if it’s interfering with happiness today, then it’s not worth it! Opening up to suggestions and recommendations for improving the present makes the most sense now, as it contributes to your happiness instead of subtracting from it. Avoid too-quick decisions now.
Virgo
You tend to slow down with the Moon in your privacy sector all day, dear Virgo, but while this is typically a time for seeing your priorities more clearly, perceptions are a little skewed today. The tendency to make too much of a situation is a potential problem. If you keep in mind that there is a theme of exaggeration and drama now, you won’t invest too much in what’s communicated, and you can enjoy yourself more. Aim to take your time coming to conclusions but engage in some stretching of your mind now. Thoughts tend to level out tomorrow.
Libra
The Moon spends the day in your social sector, dear Libra, and it’s a great time for reaching out and connecting. You may need to avoid major decision-making as information is likely to come to light at a later date (as late as January) that changes your current perspective. The tendency now is to imagine the extreme of a situation, good or bad, and it can be challenging to listen to your voice of reason just for now. It’s a good idea to take time drawing meaningful conclusions. However, enjoy the mental exercise as you consider new possibilities. Just avoid setting things in stone.
Scorpio
We can be a little more dramatic than usual today, dear Scorpio, as Mercury and Jupiter form a minor square aspect. Decisions related to money or possessions may be challenging to make. Alternatively, the may be way too easy to make, suggesting you haven’t considered all of the angles! People around you may seem a little dramatic, and there is undoubtedly a tendency to make a lot out of situations, so aim to take your time digesting everything you learn before making decisions. The Moon spends the day at the top of your solar chart, pointing your attention to responsibilities and your reputation. It can be difficult focusing on priorities, but loosening up may benefit you now.
Sagittarius
You’re certainly willing to offer advice and to speak about personal plans and goals with Mercury in your sign these days, even if they are not entirely clear, dear Sagittarius, as you enjoy the feedback you receive from others. However, watch that you don’t take something or someone for granted today with Mercury retrograde and challenged. It can be difficult fully backing a decision, as there is a sense that something is exaggerated or magnified, in either an optimistic or pessimistic direction. As well, part of you wants to get involved, and another part just wants to escape. Take your time coming to conclusions and especially making promises. Enjoy exercises of the mind but reserve judgment.
Capricorn
The Moon spends the day in your intimacy sector, dear Capricorn, inclining you to take things a little more seriously than usual. However, a prevailing theme in the atmosphere around you is entirely different, as there is a tendency for people to entertain impractical ideas and to embellish when you’d prefer a straight answer. While it’s mostly good-natured, you could feel a little cutoff or insular as a result. Take this time to better understand yourself and your feelings, but avoid making big decisions now. Encouraging others to do the same may be a lesson in futility today, however.
Aquarius
You seem to be better off involving others instead of going solo today, dear Aquarius, as the Moon spends the day in your partnership sector. Even so, there is a distinct tendency to make too much of a situation today, and while it’s mostly good-natured, you might become frustrated with people around you who seem as if they’re overdoing it right now. You prefer to wait things out and let reason kick in before jumping to conclusions, and this is the wisest choice today with the tendency for people to exaggerate prevalent today.
Pisces
With the Moon in your sector of work and health all day, dear Pisces, you can feel a strong urge to take care of routine matters today. However, at the same time, you tire quickly of anything that feels run-of-the-mill or lacking in magic and poetry at the moment with a Mercury-Jupiter influence in effect. Today is good for participation and cooperation with others, particularly with people you work with or spend your daily life with, so focus as much as you can on that. While you may need to do some juggling, you can also pull out something useful from even the oddest thoughts and conversations you may have now.

SAGITTARIUS STRONG
Inspiring, broad vision, enthusiastic, goal seeking, truthful, adventurous. Can be reckless, unrestrained, tactless.

Fire is enthusiastic, dynamic, and spontaneous, but lacks reflection. We are more courageous and adventurous now, with a tendency to act before thinking. There is little concern about what happened in the past. We are competitive and possibly impatient or bored easily.
EARTH WEAK
There can be a lack of desire, interest, or skills regarding practical affairs. We may not be very much in touch with reality. Difficulties concentrating, grounding ourselves.
AIR WEAK
We may have a difficult time being objective or detached. We may not be especially communicative.
WATER WEAK
There may be some insensitivity or lack of empathy now. We may be out of touch with what we’re feeling or with our emotional needs. We may be tougher than usual now, and more inclined to follow mental or practical considerations than we are to listen to our intuition.
BALANCE OF MODES
MUTABLE STRONG
We are flexible, adaptable, willing, open to change, and possibly flighty or nervous.
LUNAR PHASE: DISSEMINATING
Moon 135 to 90 degrees behind the Sun.
Sharing our knowledge with the world is a major motivation at this stage. We believe we have gained much knowledge and wisdom through our experiences, and want to ensure others have the benefit as well.
The following aspects (major only) and positions are at noon (EST) on December 7th:
Note that when an aspect is applying, it has not yet happened but is within orb – it’s pending. When an aspect is separating, it has already happened/perfected and is moving away from the aspect. Depending on the speed of the planet/body involved, the aspect will have perfected–or will perfect–in a matter of hours (often the case with the Moon), days, months, and possibly years in the case of the very slow-moving outer planets and bodies.
Note that the Moon moves at a rate of approximately one degree every 2 hours so that if an aspect involving the Moon is applying and has an orb of 5 degrees, the aspect will perfect (be exact) in about 10 hours. If the Moon is separating from an aspect with an orb of 2 degrees, it has already formed said aspect approximately 4 hours ago (since the following are positions at noon today, then it would have occurred at about 8 AM today).
**I suggest paying close attention to applying aspects. The energy of the aspect builds as it gets closer to exact. Once an aspect involving inner planets has happened, it’s over. Separating aspects are good to know for context, but in terms of energy that is with us today, applying aspects are most important. (This is the case for daily astrology influences involving inner planets, which pass quickly, and not natal astrology aspects, which are with us for a lifetime).
