December 2021 Aries Horoscope

It's the countdown to the New Year, and December will close 2021 on a big note.

The month is coloured by a Venus and Pluto conjunction happening in Capricorn. This happens in your 10th house and is likely to get you hyper-involved in your career and public life. The best keyword to describe this conjunction is an obsession. This could be both good or bad, depending on your circumstances. It could rekindle a fire within you towards unfinished projects, or even just a general surge of inspiration and motivation to grow. Be careful with being too eager to advance, as your passion may be there, but the world may not be going at your pace. Let that inner fire build-up and carry it onto the New Year.

The Eclipse and New Moon of the month will be happening in Sagittarius in your 9th house. The Moon will also be closely conjunct with Mercury adding an air of curiosity to the month. This transit also happens in your 9th house to point towards travel or interacting with people from foreign places. This month you will likely be invited to embody a student mentality. You could be humbled by a glimpse into a world of endless possibilities. Don't be afraid to have fun learning something new and unfamiliar to you. There's a lot to be gained from going with the flow this month.

Further down the month, Mars will be square with Jupiter. This is happening between your 8th and 11th house.

This transit is all about getting rid of old relationships that don't serve you anymore and inviting new friends and alliances. Since Jupiter started transiting your 11th house in December of last year, you might have noticed that you met quite a few people that proved to be substantial to your development this year. But as new relationships enter your life, there may still be some that you need to part ways with. You may be reluctant, but Mars transiting your 8th house will give you the extra push needed to say good-bye to people that are hindering you. Know that this is a natural part of relationships, and it's best to embrace the separation and get excited for new adventures and meaningful partnerships to come.

A few days after the square, Mars will be conjunct with the South Node of the Moon, Ketu. This is happening in your 9th house in Sagittarius.

This transit might stir up some commotions with people of differing views. There may be a tendency to repress anger to play things safe and not offend anybody, but this might end up backfiring. Authenticity is called for now, even if some people won't like what you have to say. It's essential to be mindful of your delivery, but these emotions are better to let out than bottled up. Especially since the holidays are just around the corner, many people get extra sensitive around this time. Having negative emotions brewing within you will only become harder to manage with all the pressure to have a jolly time during the holidays. Do what you must, and if you need to vent, do it. However, use your words wisely.

Later in the month, the last Saturn-Uranus square of the year will happen between your 2nd and 11th house, making the theme of friendships a sensitive topic again.

This is probably no news to you, but 2021 was a year to assess the people you associate with very closely. As the year comes to an end, you are likely making plans for you to achieve your well-deserved success in the year coming up. Still, don't be surprised if old arguments with people you used to be close to coming back up again. Any disagreements left unsolved need to find closure, and they will keep coming back until it happens. Even if it's the case that the other party is the one refusing to let go of the past, patience is extremely necessary at this time. Uranus likes to make sudden emotional outbursts like the rebellious planet that he is. Yet, navigating these moments will only become more manageable when you just give in to it and decide to get it done once and for all.

The Gemini Full Moon will be happening in your 3rd house of communication this month. This will bring about a new sense of clarity that will be very welcome at this time. With the fuzziness that the Saturn-Uranus can bring, this Full Moon will help you see details you haven't noticed before. It's time to uncover the truths you're seeking and use them to advance in the year ahead. Be ready for a few "I knew it" moments during this lunar cycle. If the information you uncover happens to be the opposite of what you expected, take your time with it and try to find how you can use this new understanding to help strengthen your own idea of how things should be.

The year ends on an excellent note as the long-awaited Jupiter in Pisces ingress happens in your 12th house. This transit is supposed to bring good vibes to whatever area of your life it shows in. Since this is happening in your 12th house, expect an enhanced connection with your spirituality and the unseen realms. This is also a transit that will last for most of 2022, so be ready for a year of introspection, inner work and aloneness (positive loneliness).
