This is the chatty, Gemini, Full Moon of the year. Good conversation bordering on gossip will abound. Make sure you do not cross a line by discussing other peoples’ affairs inappropriately. Read poetry aloud or immerse yourself in a good book to open your mind. Write down notes, tips and numbers for later.

Neptune now moves in the right direction. If your birthday is on 9th, 10th or 11th of December this energy will be with you for the next twelve months as it is baked into your solar return chart for the next year. Anticipate a clearer impression of life and some transparency and insights about all the things which are left unsaid. Atmospheres will be easier to interpret now.

More on Neptune

Neptune understands, dissolves and eludes. The people that Neptune represents are dreamers, ghosts, angels and nomads. Neptune rules Pisces.

    20th: New Moon

    New Moon at 28° Sagittarius

    Got moving and inspired with this dynamic New Moon in Sagittarius. Focus on the vision for your life and tweak it where required. Meander down some sideroads and see how you feel about adding a little something else to your life. No decision has to be made yet, but that doesn’t stop you from pondering all the possibilities now.

    21st: Sun enters Capricorn

    As the Sun enters Capricorn it is the solstice. This day is called Saturnalia after Saturn the ruler of Capricorn.

    21st: Solstice

    Turning Point

    The winter solstice is on December 21st this year. Solstices are turning points in the Sun’s path. This planetary shift, from Sagittarius to Capricorn, represents the Sun’s drawing back towards the equator, implying a significant shift in the seasonal cycle. This transition signifies a movement towards balance and equilibrium, as the Sun’s position aligns closer to the celestial equator. The solstice symbolizes a major turning point in the year, where the days begin to lengthen in the Northern Hemisphere and the nights become shorter.

     

    New Cycle

    Symbolically, the Sun’s entry into Capricorn can be seen as a pulling back, or gathering of energy, as it prepares to embark on a new cycle and journey through the zodiac. It is a time to reflect, consolidate and set intentions for the upcoming year. The hints at a return to stability, grounding and the establishment of a solid foundation as the Sun’s energy shifts now back towards the equator.

    21st: Yule

    Wheel of the Year

    In the Northern hemisphere winter begins at Yule as the Sun enters Capricorn. This occurs at the winter solstice around December 21st.

    24th: Venus enters Capricorn

    Venus enters Capricorn

    As Venus enters Capricorn the change of planetary energy draws the focus to serious relationships and the role of moneyin the balance of power between the sexes. All Sea Goats will be more loving and social now. Anticipate good relations with those in authority, like your boss or your parents.

    More on Venus

    Venus is feminine. Venus loves, acquires and appreciates. Venus represents young women, girlfriends, sweethearts and accountants. Venus rules Taurus and Libra.

     

      December 2025 Background Energy

      Broad Strokes

      I always like to get a feel for the month by looking the background energy. This is typically shown through all the planetary positions by sign and their polarity, element and mode emphasis. As each month develops planets move and create the background energy modifications that I’m talking about here. 

      For my background energy count I only consider 10 planets which are the Sun, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto and Chiron. I ignore the Moon. This is not an exact science, but what in astrology is?

      1st December 2025

      Polarity

      In December the polarities are in perfect balance with five active and five passive planets each.

       

      Element

      During December the two elements which are brought forward are Fire and Water. This combination amusingly creates steam which is a massive driver for power generation and energy expenditure.

       

      Mode

      In December the mode emphasis is strongly mutable with five planets in this modality. This is two more worlds than the next best, of three, which is fixed.

      1st January 2026

      Polarity

      By 1st of January the polarity emphasis has shifted towards active over passive. A strong active polarity shows that more actions will be taken, and initiatives will begin.

       

      Element

      During December, and by the end of the year, the element emphasis is not clearly defined although Fire is still ahead of the others by a whisker. Remember for an element to be emphasised it must have two more planets than the next best element and by the end of December there is no clear winner element wise.

       

      Mode

      By 1st of January the mode emphasis is cardinal. Cardinal has five planets which is two more than the next best which is fixed. Strong cardinal indicate that things will start up again as people get moving on their projects.
