The year is coming to a close, but before it does, there’s lots of activity ahead for each star sign. Express.co.uk spoke exclusively to astrologer Inbaal Honigman who revealed what can be expected in the month of December. 

Looking at the month in full, Inbaal said: “December this year allows for extreme emotions, and connects the past to the future. It’s Sagittarius season until December 21, which means the Sun is in Sagittarius. It is a sign of growth, generosity and expansiveness as well as travel and adventure. 

“Sagittarius season is [also] an opportunity to stick your sunglasses on and grab hold of a fruity cocktail, no matter the weather.

“Mars, planet of passion and battle, is still in retrograde all month, so previous partners will be around you, looking for attention. Your partner’s annoying exes will pop up too, so stay vigilant.”

Aries 

“You’ve been feeling the stresses of everyday life for a few months now, as your ruling planet Mars is going through a lengthy retrograde period, and nothing happens quite as expected,” the expert said. 

“The first flurry of good fortune blesses you starting on the 21st, as Jupiter, planet of generosity and wealth steps into your sign and stays there, so money and generous gifts will be coming to you. January holds an even bigger promise, as the Mars retrograde ends and Jupiter is still in your sign.”

Taurus 

Inbaal explained: “Uranus has been in Taurus since 2018, and will remain there until 2026, which will drag you though life changes, even though you really dislike change. 

“Big life events, house moves, bereavements, losses and operations come about – if not this December, then the following month or the one after. They’re not surprises but slow, deliberate changes, which benefit you in the long run.”

Gemini

“The Full Moon in your sign on December 8 is a once-in-a-year opportunity to manifest with ease,” she said. 

“The Full Moon is the time to charge your crystals on the windowsill, write down your wishes and light a little flame to invite positivity into your life. Do this on the 8th as a little break from everything else that’s going on. 

“The Mars Retrograde in your sign is in place all month long, meaning you’ll be swept up into periods of anger or moodiness, but this is over on January 12th, and then wishes start to come true.”

Cancer

“This month the bright Sun, and Mercury planet of communication and Venus planet of love are quite close all month,” the astrologer revealed. “This isn’t very rare, but it means that when your ruler, the dreamy Moon, creates a difficult angle with one of these planets, it creates a difficult angle with all three. 

“So on the 8th and 9th, the moon is in opposition with all those planets, creating drama in your life with regards to love, communication and self-image. And on the 23rd and 24th the moon is conjunct those planets, which indicates harmony in all those fields, all at once.”

Leo 

“The bright and influential Sun is your ruler, and as the Sun transitions through the signs, your personal life changes tend to align with the rest of the world,” Inbaal said. “What we call the ‘star signs’ are actually the Sun signs, so the Sun is in Sagittarius until the 21st and in Capricorn from the 22nd. 

“When the Sun is in Sagittarius, you feel adventurous, free and merry, whereas when the Sun is in Capricorn, you feel serious, mature and reserved.”

Virgo

“You seem to be ahead of your time, Virgo, since your ruling planet, Mercury, transitions from Sagittarius to Capricorn a couple of weeks before the Sun makes the same change,” she continued. 

“The change from fun-loving, festive Sagittarius into grown-up, focused Capricorn, takes place for you between the 6th and the 7th, so you’re ready for the new year in plenty of time. 

“The rest of the world catches up with you between the 21st and the 22nd, so you can let them know in advance how it goes.”

Libra 

“You like fitting in, and being part of the crowd, you feel safe when you live through the same experiences as those around you,” Inbaal revealed. “Three planets go through an identical experience this month, shifting from adventurous Sagittarius to mature Capricorn. 

“The Sun moves on the 21st, impacting Leo. Mercury shifts on the 6th, affecting Gemini and Virgo, and your ruler Venus, planet of love and beauty, makes the same transition on the 9th, influencing Taurus and Libra. There’s strength in numbers.”

Scorpio 

“You’re one of the few signs who have two ruling planets, which doubles your planetary influences each month,” the expert said. “Your modern ruler is Pluto, planet of deaths and rebirths, and it is in Capricorn all month long, which is a mature and balanced sign, meaning you’ll keep your environment tidy and your finances in order. 

“Your traditional ruling planet is in Gemini, which means you’ll be going to parties almost every day of the month.”

Sagittarius

“For the majority of the month, the sun is in your sign, which makes this Sagittarius season,” she explained. “It means you’re seen, heard and noticed, and when you need to see changes, you just ask for them and then they happen. 

“Two major planets are in your sign at the start of the month as well – Mercury planet of communication is in Sagittarius until the 6th, which indicates good conversations, and Venus, planet of love is in your sign until the 9th, which is a time for lovely dates and love letters.”

Capricorn

Inbaal said: “The New Moon in your sign on the 23rd starts Capricorn season off with a bang. 

“The sun goes into your sign the previous day, so even though Christmas day hasn’t happened yet, you’ve been prepared for all the festivities in advance, and so now you can barely wait for the days that follow. 

“The return to normal, the farewell to the sugar highs and the jingling bells. Your New Moon is an opportunity to stock take and think – in 2023, what career moves do you want to achieve? How do you want your love life to look? When you know what you want, you can then go and get it.”

Aquarius

“Saturn, planet of Karma, is in your sign all month, so you’ll observe some slow, karmic changes take place,” she added. “People who harmed you will be slowly pushed into justice, and those who help are getting in line to receive their blessings. 

“Saturn has been in Aquarius for a couple of years, so there are no surprises ahead, but at least for December, it isn’t retrograde, as it’s been in summer, so your good news far outweigh the bad.”

Pisces 

“The first three weeks of December should be full of happy surprises for you,” she added. “The planet Jupiter, which governs generosity and growth, happens to be in your sign until the 20th. 

“This means that the world will treat you with generosity – pay rises, bonuses, cash gifts. In addition, the planet Jupiter is your traditional ruling planet, which means all this generosity will be around things that matter to you – no random gifts that you’ll need to return, but actual dreams coming true and wishes fulfilled.”
