Weekly Forecast Dec. 15 - 21, 2025
On Monday, the week starts with the Sun, Mercury, Venus, and Mars all in dynamic Sagittarius, the Moon in Libra for most of the day, retrograde Jupiter in Cancer, and Saturn in Pisces. With the planets mostly as they were this weekend, the energy of restoring balance and applying experiential wisdom carries on into today. It is also a good day for going on a research deep-dive to explore new perspectives on the world. You could also try a new hobby or experience that you have been curious about today. Later on, the Moon moves into introspective Scorpio, taking the exploratory energy into darker or more taboo topics.
On Tuesday, the Moon remains in Scorpio all day as Mars enters Capricorn. This Mars transit brings steadfastness and determination to this Mars-ruled day while the Moon is also in the Mars-ruled sign of Scorpio, strengthening the Martian energy. Altogether, this makes today ideal for taking a long-term view of your situation and taking methodical steps to get from your current position to where you envision yourself. With the more introspective energies of Scorpio and Capricorn taking center stage today, you may also notice that you are craving more solitude than in recent days.
The Moon remains in Scorpio for most of the day on Wednesday, also forming a relatively tight grand water trine with retrograde Jupiter in Cancer and Saturn in Pisces, similar to the formation from the weekend before last (Dec. 6 and 7). You may feel similarly to how you felt on that weekend as its emotional intensity is revived for several hours today. Nostalgia and family history or legacy may be important themes today as well before this grand water trine formation is ended by the Moon’s entry into Sagittarius later tonight, which will bring the focus back into the here and now.
The Moon will be in Sagittarius all day on Thursday, alongside the Sun, Mercury, and Venus. Thus, today may feel somewhat similar to Monday, which also had four planets in Sagittarius. However, today is less about finding motivation to restore balance through exploration, but rather about exploring and experiencing life to gain insight and build towards a better future with Mars in Capricorn now in the picture. With Mars opposing the retrograde Jupiter in Cancer by sign, your progress may be slow at first or come in the form of temporarily going back over previous work, but this is all necessary towards building a long-lasting foundation.
On Friday, the day ruled by Venus, we have Venus joined by both luminaries in Sagittarius, which amplifies the focus on the day’s ruling planet. Therefore, it is an excellent day to lean into the energy of the transiting Venus in Sagittarius by being silly, telling stories, and doing exciting and novel activities. Today is the day to bask in the pleasure of discovery and joviality. Don’t take yourself too seriously – the time to be serious will come soon enough. Remember that play can be just as valuable as work, since sometimes the best and most creative ideas come to us when we are distracted from the problems we are trying to solve.
The Moon begins in Sagittarius again on Saturday and reaches the same degree as the Sun in the early hours of the day, forming a New Moon. This formation marks the beginning of a new six-month cycle around the themes of journeys, exploration, and wisdom which will reach its conclusion with the Full Moon in Sagittarius on May 31, 2026. Set goals and intentions today, especially with regards to enriching your life through new experiences, such as travel. How could adopting a nomadic mindset help shift you away from stale patterns? Where do you need new pastures in order to thrive?
On Sunday, the Moon will be in Capricorn all day today, the last day of the Sun transiting through Sagittarius for the year. With the Moon and Mars both occupying the same sign of Capricorn, we are getting a taste of the energy soon to come when Capricorn season starts tomorrow. Emotional issues may arise which tempt you to drown yourself in work to distract from them. A more positive way to channel this energy is to engage in meaningful and quality work to help you process and overcome emotional hangups. Try to move your body and do physical labor that mirrors the emotional work that would benefit you. For example, if you are needing emotional clarity, try deep-cleaning your space.
