Weekly Forecast Dec. 22 - 28, 2025
On Monday, the Sun enters serious Capricorn to join Mars. The Moon is also in Capricorn for much of the day before entering Aquarius in the evening. Retrograde Jupiter remains in Cancer, which is currently opposing the Sun, Mars, and the Moon by sign today. This increases the focus on the Cancer/Capricorn axis surrounding the themes of family, duty, and leadership. Saturn also remains in Pisces, which adds to the mutable energy of Mercury and Venus in Sagittarius. This means that there is still a bit of levity, flexibility, and imagination lingering today as we transition into more serious times.
On Tuesday, the Moon is in Aquarius all day, so the luminaries’ serious, Saturn-ruled energy continues into today, alongside Mars in Saturn-ruled Capricorn. Discipline is the name of the game today. Although your mind and desires may still feel playful and exploratory with Mercury and Venus in Sagittarius, it is best to tap into your willpower to accomplish the things you have been putting off and take success into your own hands on this Mars-ruled day.
On Wednesday, the Moon remains in Aquarius, so some of the serious and disciplined energy carries over from yesterday. However, with today ruled by Mercury in Sagittarius, we encounter a brief burst of playful energy as the day invites us to think unconventionally and use our life experiences to help us solve problems. Since Mercury is in its detriment sign of Sagittarius, others may not understand you, so just try things out as they occur to you!
The Moon moves into Pisces on Thursday to join Saturn, so you may find heightened emotional awareness of your obstacles and struggles today. Sadness, frustration, and despair may arise from unaddressed issues. On the other hand, if you have been successful at integrating the lessons that the Saturn in Pisces transit has put before you, you may feel triumph and joy at how far you have come. Venus also enters Capricorn today to join the Sun and Mars. Now, your desires, motivation, and self-concept are aligned in dogged pursuit of your long-term aspirations.
On Friday, the Moon remains in Pisces all day, so there are no major planetary shifts from Thursday. Continue to take advantage of the intermingling energies of diligent labor and emotional understanding to bring your fantasies of a better life closer and closer to reality. This is the perfect time to be a true visionary and engineer of your own destiny, so don’t let the moment pass you by.
Early on Saturday, the Moon forms an exact conjunction by degree with Saturn in Pisces, bringing the emotional understanding of your obstacles and struggles that has been building over the past couple of days to a head. Consider the ways in which fantasy or a lack of it has posed problems in your life. For example, how have your fantasies shut you off from engaging with the real world and people around you? Alternately, in what ways has a refusal to dream stopped you from being able to participate fully in the abundant world around you? With this transit happening against a backdrop of heavy Capricorn energy, just remember that we are aiming for a functional balance between idealism and tangible action. Shortly after this conjunction between the Moon and Saturn in Pisces, the Moon moves on into the sign of Aries, which immediately brings a boost of vitality after a bout of seriousness and introspection.
On Sunday, the Moon is in fired-up Aries all day, playing off of Mercury in Sagittarius’ fire energy to bring us a bit more liveliness. The Moon in Aries also forms a T-square with retrograde Jupiter in Cancer and the Sun, Venus, and Mars in Capricorn. This emphasizes the theme of leadership already present in the Capricorn/Cancer opposition, while bringing a new note of individuality. Since Capricorn and Cancer are both quite systems-oriented, the Moon in Aries invites us to see our own role in the play as worthy of focus and attention. How do you play into the systems you are a part of? Do you like your role, or would you like to try out a new one?
