Daily Horoscopes/Astro Highlights for each Sign:

Aries

Today and in the next few days, dear Aries, you’d do well for yourself if you focus on letting go of negative feelings and making room for more joy in your life. With the Sun in your solar ninth house, you’re focusing on the bigger picture, and a New Moon in two days is pushing this further, opening up opportunities for you to feed your spirit as well as grow and improve. Today, the Sun clashes with Neptune, however, and there can be a tendency to feel a little held back by some issues that you’ve left untied. Uncertainty is part of this, and while it’s uncomfortable, the sooner you either take care of it or learn to live with it, the better. It’s better to keep a low profile now, and if you’re suffering from some loss of faith, consider that it’s simply time to adjust your path. If you’ve been avoiding things, now is the time to address the issue, but do save the bigger decisions and initiatives for a later date. It’s especially important to avoid making broad statements, as things can be misunderstood. Take your time before coming to any concrete conclusions. Misjudging things is entirely possible, so it’s best to leave assessments open-ended. Dream up new possibilities but wait to act upon them. You need extra space or at least little freedoms to feel comfortable today.

Taurus

While you’re set to make some wonderful discoveries about your relationships in the days ahead, dear Taurus, you may struggle with some ambiguities today as the Sun and Neptune form a square. Intimacy, friendship, power dynamics, or shared finances may be unclear. The need to be able to depend on someone is strong, but clearing the path of untrue friendships may be in order before moving forward confidently. A desire to make a deeper connection to someone can cloud your vision just for the time being, and wishful thinking has a way of skewing your perceptions. Aiming to observe today and the next couple of days makes much more sense than taking action, as it’s too soon to know what’s in your heart. Consider that there may be some crossed signals in your relationships and reserve judgment. Sometimes comparing a current situation with a past one–or an imaginary one– can interfere with current happiness when Neptune is strong as it is now.

Gemini

With Neptune dominant and challenged right now, dear Gemini, you may need to watch out for situations where you have a veil over your eyes, particularly when it comes to relationships and career path matters. Uncertainty about long-term goals can weigh on a relationship for some of you now. Try not to waste too much time on guilt, which keeps you stuck into the past, or worry, which keeps you in the future, both of which prevent you from enjoying the moment. Leave important decision-making for a clearer time. Several factors happening today and in the next couple of days point to the need to observe and intuit rather than push your plans forward or make big commitments. As well, try not to push for direction and allow it to come more intuitively, which requires patience but is well worth the effort. If people in your life are pressuring you to find a path or define one, you may want to let them now that you need some time and space to discover it for yourself.

Cancer

With Neptune especially strong today and in the next few days, dear Cancer, it’s best to approach your world in a more relaxed, creative way, where appropriate. It’s important to be mindful of rules and situations that require more concentration, however, and to keep in mind that things may not be clear-cut or certain just for now. In fact, routines can become muddled or chaotic, or you might experience a brief lull in your motivation. What’s inspired you in the past may require some adjustments, or you may need to seek a new source of inspiration. Keeping conversations light and activities straightforward may be helpful. With either Neptune or Jupiter active, it’s a good idea to watch for pushing your usual limits too far, as this can be a warning sign. A lack of focus now can point to a need for a break or personal refreshment. Ideally, you find something to do that allows extra room for some creativity and ad lib changes.

Leo

Taking extra time for yourself makes sense today, dear Leo, with your ruler, the Sun, in stressful aspect with Neptune and Uranus. There is a strong potential for enjoying a creative, imaginative, and dreamy day. Even so, you should probably watch that you’re not overly dependent on others’ responses or having circumstances go your way, as there is a tendency for things to go a little sideways. Mind you, if they do, the detours you take can be interesting or even inspiring, ultimately! It’s hard to draw boundaries in your love life, particularly, but this can also extend to other relationships. As the Moon wanes, it’s important to avoid hard and fast conclusions or commitments anyhow, so keep this in mind. If you experience doubts about recent undertakings, allow yourself some space to come back from them. It’s possible that they’ll steer you in a better direction. You may very well need a little more creative room or inspiration before you push forward.

Virgo

You’re in good form for behind-the-scenes activities today, dear Virgo, but worldly, practical concerns may leave you feeling up in the air now with the Sun and Neptune forming a square aspect. There can be evasiveness in a relationship, or you may be dealing with some dashed hopes or deflation if a situation (or person) isn’t pulling through for you as you’d hoped. While it’s temporary, it’s worth paying these feelings some attention. Wishful thinking may be clouding your decisions. Even self-soothing can be destructive if you’re telling yourself lies. With the Moon waning now as well, it’s especially important to avoid coming to hard conclusions or making complicated commitments until things are clear. It’s also helpful to avoid committing yourself until you feel more confident about your choices. In fact, in coming days, creativity is sure to blossom with family or on the homefront. It’s best not to put too much weight into others’ responses and instead, aim to make yourself happy with a project or cause that truly inspires you. If you’ve been unhappy with your own personal patterns or with confronting the same old issues in close relationships, this can be a time for changing your approach. Dare to do things just a little differently!

Libra

It’s a good idea to separate business and pleasure as much as possible today, dear Libra. A Sun-Neptune square, in particular, can seem to blur some boundaries now, and while it’s ultimately useful for identifying areas where you might seek out inspiration, it can serve to confuse you initially. For the time being, it’s challenging to make sense of signals around you. As well, there can be a bit of chaos or excess due to the taking on of far too many activities and tasks. This comes at a time when Mercury is reaching a station and we’re closing in on a New Moon, and all signs point to the need to take things easy rather than push ahead. Complications are likely now, so do your part by keeping things simple as a counter-strategy! Ultimately, you’ll be gaining a better understanding of yourself and your needs as you react or respond to the day’s ups and downs. In the meantime, conversations or news coming in today can leave you with more questions than you began with. Be flexible if there are small changes in your schedule or disruptions in your routine.

Scorpio

You may be wrestling with your expectations today, dear Scorpio, as the Sun and Neptune form a square aspect, serving to illuminate areas of your life where you’re in need of either more reality or inspiration! Financial issues or matters of respect and self-worth can be involved, as you’re seeking ways to improve these areas of your life, but you’re also reminded of your needs for fun, romance, or excitement now. Recent problems may feel more weighty as a solution seems further out of reach than usual. Waiting things out is usually the answer with this kind of aspect, as you need some time to get to a clearer headspace. There can be temptations to jump into a new purchase or experience without considering the consequences, and it’s best to keep these at bay. Mercury is heading to a station, and a New Moon is on the horizon, suggesting that things should wind down rather than rev up. Routine can be maddening today, so aim to make a difference in pleasing ways to keep things fresh. Even so, if you feel your life is a little out of your control, then a useful counter strategy for you may be to keep those things you CAN control as simple as possible now.

Sagittarius

With a New Moon in your sign on its way (exact on the 7th), dear Sagittarius, you’re gearing up for a fresh start. However, today’s Sun-Neptune square reminds you to slow down and consider your spiritual needs before pushing forward. There can be extra sensitivity about or with family today, or there can be an event that triggers your vulnerabilities, temporarily throwing you a little off track. Feeling slightly deflated may seem a nuisance now, but could also give you pause to rethink specific plans or goals in creative ways. Your perceptive and intuitive powers are in strong focus although distractions and wishful thinking can skew the results! There is a tendency to complicate life when you’re in great need of simplicity, or you may need to add some imaginative touches to what you’re doing. Either way, it’s time for making adjustments. If you need to change plans due to sudden revelations, then so be it, but do watch for making big moves now, as it’s a better time to wind things down than rev yourself up.

Capricorn

Feelings of uncertainty are not your cup of tea, dear Capricorn, but it would benefit you to leave things a little open today as the Sun is challenged by both Uranus and Neptune, pointing to some disruptions to the normal flow. Consider that doing so can help you feel free. However, do watch for taking premature action or for speaking too soon on a matter. All signs point to winding things down rather than up for a couple of days. While you do, you can reach some wonderful conclusions, but locking things down is best avoided for now. Even if intentions are good, lines can be crossing. Allowing yourself to feel a little vulnerable can help you to better understand your needs, but save decisions that require precision for a more certain frame of mind. You may very well need a new source of inspiration, and you’re likely to come by one in the days ahead with a New Moon about to occur when Mars and Neptune join forces on the 7th. Learning new things about your inner needs can lead to exciting new beginnings.

Aquarius

Boundaries can blur a little today, dear Aquarius, or you could be dealing with something that’s up in the air, and the uncertainty can drag you down a rung. Either way, there is a general air of confusion today, and the atmosphere is ripe for misunderstandings. This is due to a Sun-Neptune square, which is confounded by an approaching station of Mercury and a Balsamic Moon. All of these influences suggest the need to detox, wind down, and observe rather than push ahead, so it’s best to avoid making hard and fast commitments or drawing conclusions. Wait things out, get rest, and aim to approach problems from a fresh perspective later. The New Moon in just two days should help redirect you, although directions are not clear-cut even with it. Because it’s easy for life to become (or feel) complicated now, it’s better to keep the things you can control on the familiar or straightforward side.

Pisces

Your ruler, Neptune, is active this week, dear Pisces, challenging the Sun today and then aligning with Mars in just two days. Today’s conflict can pull up some personal challenges, mostly related to dealing with expectations and aligning your dreams with your plans. Be careful if you’re noticing that others are not seeing you very clearly, as tempting as it may be just to let them think what they want, because this may backfire on you later. While you may not be in the mood to set things straight, and the day’s energies don’t seem conducive to bold-faced honesty either, do try to be as clear as you can in your dealings now, and watch for making commitments now. You need to allow things to play out a while longer to give yourself more time to process and understand your needs. Concentrating on healing, forgiving, and clearing out negativity is useful now, and take care not to put all of your eggs into the wrong basket.

Today’s Lunar Phase

LUNAR PHASE: BALSAMIC

Moon less than 45 degrees behind the Sun. 

Time to tie up loose ends, review, reflect, let go, and edit.

The following aspects (major only) and positions are at noon (EST) on December 5th:

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).

We are more competitive than cooperative at this time.

This is a time for closing up projects that are no longer viable and for clearing out the deadwood. We’re especially creative or spiritual during the Mars in Pisces cycle.
