December 2025 Daily Astrology
December 1: Thanks to the waxing Aries Moon’s trine with Mars the day and month set off at blazing speeds. The Sun and Venus join Mars in cheerful Sagittarius. With a strong planetary emphasis in fire signs there is plenty of energy. This first part of the day promises to be the most tangibly productive. A lunar square with Jupiter keeps enthusiasm and hopes aloft into the early afternoon hours. By midafternoon the Moon is in void of course mode. Creative ideas continue to come in bunches but the will and wherewithal to act on them may be missing. All the same, Venus is nearing a favorable alignment to Pluto. Brainstorming with friendly associates has its advantages. An insight could bear fruit late tonight, when the Moon enters fertile Taurus.

It’s also good for making inquiries and doing research. The Taurus Moon sustains an even-handed, steady approach to both people and chores.

Good intentions and magical thinking just may save the day or at least make mundane challenges more amusing.

Assessments are accurate, decisions are nicely thought out. The early afternoon is an excellent time to sign a contract or take on a commitment. This evening’s lunar conjunction with Uranus, the unpredictable, sometimes outrageous planet of liberating spontaneity, infuses the second half of today with numerous thrills.

December 4: Today’s featured event is this evening’s Full Cold Moon in thoughtful, occasionally fickle Gemini. Full Moon Fever is on!

The accuracy of information is critical, impacting both personal and professional lives. Debates can be passionate. Resist the temptation to judge or lecture. Luckily, autumn’s continuing water sign Grand Trine is also in the picture. Mental Mercury’s trines to Jupiter, Saturn and Neptune foster sensitive awareness. Faith is enhanced. A desire to do good in the world is stimulated. Kindness softens voices and opens hearts. Creative souls as well as optimists feel inspired today. For some fortunate souls, a pinnacle of success may be reached.

December 5: Expect morning aftershocks from yesterday’s Full Moon. The day gets under way with a jarring lunar opposition to Mars. The tense alignment requires patience and careful consideration. Adding to today’s challenges are squares between the Moon, Saturn and Neptune. This T-square configuration generates nervous apprehensions. Confusion and misunderstandings are also likely. Fortunately, the beneficial influences of autumn’s water sign Grand Trine also persist. Consciously counter fearful or limiting thoughts. The words of poets, artists and enlightened souls offer comfort and inspiration. Time passed in Mother Nature can also relieve tension. Moods shift with the Moon’s late evening arrival in nurturing Cancer. Gravity pulls towards the simple pleasures of home, hearth, family and close friends.

December 7: Mixed trends bring a multitude of tricky choices. Some paths are smoother than others. Choose wisely. Mental Mercury is making his final rounds through autumn’s persisting water sign Grand Trine while also testing unpredictable Uranus. Some projects are all systems go while others can quickly veer off course in chaotic or unforeseen circumstances. A partner may be unable to perform as expected, likely due to unforeseen events. Mars’ approaching squares to Saturn and Neptune also warrant caution. Do what you can to minimize mistakes, omissions and confusion. Double check all documents, reports and other information. Despite the risks, creative points of view are vitally important. Whether it’s yours or your partner’s, intuition just may save the day.

Spirits rise majestically under the Moon’s heartwarming midafternoon trine to loving Venus. Moods are warm and gregarious. Generosity is impressive. Lunches, meetings and other get-togethers delight the senses. However, there is also a square between Mars and Saturn later today that deserves respect. Do not make agreements unless all pertinent information is known. Given Saturn’s proximity to nebulous Neptune, there is a fairly good chance of an oversight. A delay can turn out to be a good thing so if you do move ahead, proceed with caution.

Mental faculties grow sharper and communications flow freely. Meetings are fruitful. The afternoon is a good one for negotiating mutually beneficial agreements. Partnerships as well as society’s greater good are well-served. The evening hours are comparatively quiet.

The moderating effect can be a plus for those who tend to hurry or demand instant gratification. Our waning Scorpio Moon is at odds with Pluto before dawn breaks. Night owls may find sleep and contentment are elusive. Calmer skies dominate the daytime. However, emotions continue to run deep. Scorpio Moons naturally stir up curiosity. Questions can be probing. Given the strong likelihood of sensitized feelings, it is wise to be cognizant and respectful of others’ needs for privacy. Supportive understanding is greatly appreciated.

December 16: Today’s astrological activity is at a peak tonight. As a result, the day is dominated by the Sagittarius Sun’s testing, late night square with Saturn. Reliable news, accurate facts and even truth can be elusive. Hidden agendas may be missed entirely. Fortunately the Scorpio Moon fosters intuitive knowing. Physical sensations such as energy levels and gut responses make solid guides. The second half of the day is also influenced by a lunar trine to Jupiter. The aspect instills optimism tinged with altruism, empathy and common sense. Generosity and kindness are encouraged. Protective feelings are aroused. Getting back to the late night Sun/Saturn square, a significant course correction or ending could be under way. Take heart. For every door that closes, a new one opens.

December 17: Morning alarm bells can be particularly jarring. The moody Scorpio Moon is at odds with Uranus. The taut opposition puts nerves on edge but more soothing energies soon take hold. Conversing with a tree or watching clouds drift by are good stress management tools. A nice cup of tea also works nicely. By noon the Moon is in exuberant Sagittarius. Laughs, smiles and good conversations come more easily. Cheerful moods enhance workplace camaraderie as well as other relationships. Important news could arrive this afternoon or later tonight.
Moon in Scorpio v/c 10:24AM-11:38AM Moon enters Sagittarius.
December 18: As is so often the case, this last day of the monthly lunar cycle is a low energy affair. Catch your breath. Finish up what projects can be completed. Wait on beginning anything consequential until tomorrow’s New Moon. Today’s only exact aspect is a predawn conjunction of the Sagittarius Moon and Mercury. The merging of hearts and minds in the outspoken, truth-loving sign of principles and philosophy can produce emotionally charged opinions. Think twice before blurting out unfiltered thoughts. Know your audience. Rumors travel fast under today’s starry influences. Take it easy and make time for self care.

A late day Solar square with Neptune presents possible complications. Attention may wander. Absentmindedness can reduce efficiency and lead to misplaced items. Keep an eagle eye on your valuables. Another square, this one between Venus and Saturn, increases the odds of a regrettable loss. Tonight’s social plans may also fall flat. It is best to limit expectations and focus on preparations for upcoming celebrations and vacation time.

December 21: Say hello to Winter.
