Horoscopes
Aries
You can be entertaining big ideas and plans about your life direction or career today, dear Aries. Although they will likely need to be refined and edited later on before they take off, it’s important to let your mind expand and open and to entertain thoughts that you might typically reject immediately or not even imagine. Be careful not to over-commit yourself today, but consider possibilities and options. Work matters can come into stronger focus in the coming weeks, making this a good time for thinking, planning, and learning. What looks easy now can wear at you down the road, so take your time.
Taurus
This is an expressive, idea day for you, dear Taurus. “Big picture” thinking is in focus. You are far less concerned about who’s right and who’s wrong, and this makes for a mostly pressure-free day and healthy, frank discussions. However, be especially aware that there can be a tendency to overlook very important, practical details, so avoid as much as possible making a strict decision or serious commitment for now. You can be feeling good about a creative or romantic prospect now, and considerably more confident about going after what you want. Tomorrow’s Sun-Jupiter square can serve to show you where you may have been going overboard, however, so think big, stay inspired, but remain grounded as well.
Gemini
While the morning can stimulate some worries over whether you have control over a relationship matter, dear Gemini, as the day advances, you see more and more that you can only control your own behavior and can’t direct others. You can have big ideas about how to deal with, manage, and improve your domestic life today. There can be some wonderful humor shared with family, or a stronger sense of well-being through time spent at or around home. Making long-term plans for domestic matters is favored today, but the details will need to be filled in later. Commitments are best not made for the time being, but do allow your mind to open up to possibilities.
Cancer
Again today and tomorrow, there is good energy for open conversations, dear Cancer, although this morning you may be feeling a little blocked or divided before you find your emotional center. There can be wonderful gestures extended between you and a significant other. Seek balance, fairness, and moderation, but do entertain possibilities now. Great ideas don’t often come when you’re playing it safe mentally. The trick is to consider options, even wild ones, but to keep a sense of realism. Sometimes time and patience are all you need to get to a good place when it comes to ideas and plans. Details are not in close focus now, allowing you to do big picture thinking.
Leo
Today and tomorrow, thinking is not especially practical, dear Leo, but it’s very imaginative and mind-expanding. So while you may want to avoid overly routine work or tasks that require extra attention to detail, this is an important time for entertaining possibilities. Consider a problem from a variety of angles, and don’t be afraid to think in big terms. Avoiding black-or-white decision-making is important now. It’s a great time to envision what it is you want from the world, particularly when it comes to the practical side of your life, what you want to produce, and what you want to build for yourself. Balance this with what you are prepared to offer, and you’re all set.
Virgo
This can be a high energy day creatively speaking, dear Virgo, and the tendency to think in big terms is strong. You’ll be able to grasp the bigger picture and larger concepts, although the details will need to be filled in later. It’s a good time to consider all the things you want to accomplish, but with a Sun-Jupiter square tomorrow, it’s also important to find a balance, particularly as you have much to do with family and on the homefront, and the last thing you need is to overload your life.
Libra
You might decide to open up about a previously private matter today, dear Libra, or new insight can come to a problem area. There can be excitement about addressing an issue that you’ve put off dealing with, but now in a fresh, can-do way. Identifying problem areas of your life comes intuitively, and letting go does as well. Listen to your instincts, entertain your options, but try not to take on more than you can manage. Know your limits, and tomorrow morning’s Sun-Jupiter square will serve to inspire rather than frustrate! Today is good for enjoying quieter times, family connections, and some personal revelations.
Scorpio
You can be especially talkative and sociable today, dear Scorpio. You’re unlikely to feel fulfilled or satisfied unless you’re on the move, or at least mentally stimulated, right now. Your manner is proud and others tend to admire and recognize you now, particularly for your style of communication. You are keenly aware of how your communications are being received, and you tend to adjust your language and your tone accordingly, and this helps endear you to others. You can have the chance to become quite close with friends such that they are much like family. With a Sun-Jupiter square tomorrow, watch for exaggeration or overblown expectations in your friendships, however.
Sagittarius
You might benefit from conversing with someone in a position of authority today, or for supporting someone as an authority figure, dear Sagittarius. Some of you could be recognized for your accomplishments. Reviewing your budget, banking, and other financial activities are favored right now. There can be a good feeling of security as you can be quite productive. While you might feel some restlessness if you are tied to routine, you are able to combine fun and work quite well right now, and overall you are facing less resistance and more acceptance of your ideas, goals, and plans. Entertain big ideas about your future, particularly related to financial and career-related goals, and aim to refine these to better fit reality as you go forward.
Capricorn
In many ways, this can be a feel-good day, dear Capricorn, despite some early day frustrations if you feel pulled in too many directions. Your ideas and plans can be especially big today, and while they may not hold enough practical weight to float just for the time being, you can resolve to make the necessary adjustments to better fit reality as you go along. The important thing is that you’re feeling inspired and allowing new ideas to flow. The Moon in your sign all day can act to boost your mood and increase your compassion. Focusing on your emotional needs is appropriate now, and is the case for most things in life, it’s best to do so within moderation.
Aquarius
You can feel especially equipped to come up with ideas about, or solve problems related to, your work, money, and valuables today, dear Aquarius. However, with a Sun-Jupiter square approaching, it’s important to keep an open mind when it comes to the possibility of making adjustments to plans you’ve recently made. There is enthusiasm about new ideas or about reviving old projects and goals, and it’s important to stretch your mind and remain open to possibilities. Frank, healthy discussions can be enjoyed today, and by tomorrow, new insights that truly move your life forward can result.
Pisces
You are enthusiastic about sharing your ideas with others today, dear Pisces, and could find that there’s much to enjoy through a partnership or special friendship. You’ll do best if you consciously avoid overstating or promising too much, as you can overestimate your capabilities as your optimism increases, but entertaining big ideas and possibilities is nevertheless useful now as long as you know you’re shooting high. You are also most successful now with an accepting and undemanding attitude today, as this helps put others at ease and increases your chances of enjoying company and learning from your interactions.

We could feel burdened, restricted, or limited during this brief influence. We could be feeling a little down on ourselves, excluded, or lonely. There can be some awkwardness or stiffness and difficulty showing affection and feelings. Patience is a virtue right now; otherwise we might succumb to feelings of frustration and sadness. All good things come to those who wait.
SAGITTARIUS STRONG
Inspiring, broad vision, enthusiastic, goal seeking, truthful, adventurous. Can be reckless, unrestrained, tactless.
CAPRICORN STRONG
Disciplined, responsible, reliable, industrious, conscientious, practical, achieving. Can be pessimistic, overly conventional, rigid, materialistic, callous.
BALANCE OF ELEMENTS
EARTH STRONG
We are especially in touch with the physical world. We consider what we’ve learned and experienced in the past in order to make the most of the present. We can be cautious, practical, and possibly unimaginative. We are deliberate and can pace ourselves well. We need hands-on experience and are not impressed with theory as much as we are with results. Routines are tolerable and comforting.

BALANCE OF MODES
CARDINAL STRONG

LUNAR PHASE: NEW MOON
Moon 0 to 45 degrees ahead of the Sun.
This is an energetic, impulsive, and subjective period of time. We are looking for new projects and opportunities.
The following aspects (major only) and positions are at noon (EST) on December 13th:
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 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 life time).
