CAPRICORN

With a line up of planets in your sign plus the New Moon at the end of the month you can either experience a sense of urgency to make major changes or experience anger and frustration around unresolved issues.

AQUARIUS

Over the Christmas and New Year period Venus and Neptune make their annual contact indicating awareness is raised regarding the interdependence one has not only on a personal level but also on a spiritual level.

PISCES

Venus enters your sign in early January highlighting your pleasure and enjoyment. A carefree attitude may see your self-control at rather low ebb so important decision-making may be put on hold.

ARIES

When Mars enters Capricorn and hooks up with Pluto at the end of the month New Years Eve takes on a whole new meaning. Things can get out of hand very quickly so it would be better to turn the other cheek.

TAURUS

A new love relationship may see you floating on cloud nine with your usual pragmatism thrown out the window. The wine in the glass may have everything to do with this so care should be taken to avoid heartache and /or headache.

GEMINI

A lot of planetary activity going on but with your ruler Mercury holding hands with Jupiter, planet of excess over the New Year period you could be forgiven for throwing caution to the wind. Take care - things could get blown out of proportion.

CANCER

With a New Moon in Capricorn and a Full Moon in Cancer your personal and relationship needs come to the fore. You will need to find a balance otherwise the juggling act has you dropping the balls.

LEO

The Sun’s annual visit to your solar sixth house sees a focus on health and work. Long sustained effort may be required to bring you up to date but don’t overdo the exercise as it also needs a measured pace.

VIRGO

Too much of a good thing has you seeking a New Year’s resolution that has you increasing your exercise program. Do yourself a favour and step out of the main stream and try something different.

LIBRA

A very social time is indicated over the Christmas / New Year period, so social in fact that the back to work is a huge let down. Start to prepare yourself a day in advance otherwise it is all too much.

SCORPIO

Things always heat up when your two ruling planets get together as they do at the end of the month. If you go looking for a fight then you will get one otherwise a great time to get physical constructively.

SAGITTARIUS

Take the opportunity to get your finances in order for at the end of the month Jupiter finishes his yearly visit to your financial sector. Beginning of next year has you expanding your contacts.

NEW MOON at 6 degrees 08 CAPRICORN

This New Moon on Sunday 27 December at 11:22pm AEDT heralds, as does all New Moons, the end of a cycle and the beginning of another. In Capricorn it talks of accepting and taking responsibility not only for ourselves but also for that of the physical world around us.

This New Moon has not only the conjunction of the Sun and Moon but also of Mars / Pluto: Mercury / Jupiter and Venus / Neptune emphasising the importance of new beginnings. Have a vision for your future, the year ahead and take those steps that allow you to achieve it.
