Scorpio

With Venus arriving in Scorpio, December gives your presence a softer, more magnetic edge. From December 4 it may feel easier to ask for what you want or to refresh the way you present yourself. Your ruler Pluto sits in the home and family area and receives a square from Venus on December 9, which might bring a pull between personal desires and family expectations. The same day's New Moon in Sagittarius may reset how you think about income and self-worth, and a friendly Venus-Mars link soon after may strengthen ties with friends. Work routines settle as Saturn and then Neptune turn direct in your daily-life area, so an unclear task may finally get a clear outline. Jupiter, by contrast, turns retrograde in your career area on December 13; ambitions may slow into a period of fine-tuning, and your patience is an asset here. The Sun's trine to Jupiter on December 19 could still bring a helpful nod at work. Once the Sun enters Capricorn, conversations speed up, and the Full Moon in Cancer in the final week may put a long-distance plan, or a belief you are ready to revise, in the spotlight.
