Who is on the nice and naughty list?
Words by Carmen Macri and Ambar Ramirez
Aries: The nice list
The last month of the year brings two new moons and a tidal wave of fresh starts. The doors you shut in November pave the way for the doors of December to bust wide open. Mercury turns direct on Dec. 15 clearing up the fog that has been surrounding you for weeks. Decisions will come easier and you will be left feeling more decisive.
Taurus: The nice list
The month kicked off a bit rocky with Mercury retrograde in full swing, but hang tight, Taurus — a lot is happening in the cosmos. With Sagittarius season underway, you’ve been feeling more vulnerable than usual. While you often shy away from emotions, this season invites you to embrace them. Whether you choose to open up to new relationships is entirely your call. However, when Venus in Aquarius opposes Mars retrograde in Leo on Dec. 12, tension may arise. Make a conscious effort to nurture and protect the relationships that matter most.
Gemini: The nice list
You have been quite the lone wolf, Gemini. But that is to be expected since Jupiter entered your sign over summer. You have been taking solo flight after solo flight, but that is coming to an end as December brings two new moons which will activate your partnership houses on the 1st and the 30th. Say goodbye to your spacious bed, you may be welcoming a partner soon enough.
Cancer: The naughty list
Tensions are running high this month, Cancer. Between holiday chaos and a strained work-life balance, you’re feeling burnt out. Under stress, you often put up a tough exterior and vent your frustrations on loved ones. Like it or not, a reality check on your limits hits hard when Jupiter in Gemini clashes with Saturn in Pisces on Dec. 24. If you need rest, take it now.
Leo: The nice list
It is easy to keep pushing forward and ignoring all the things that have gone wrong, but maybe it is time to stop and process what you are feeling. With Mars flipping into retrograde in Leo this month, you will find yourself feeling a bit more lethargic, like time might be moving in slow motion for you, and it very well might be.
Virgo: The nice list
’Tis the season to cozy up with a hot chocolate in hand and your favorite Christmas album spinning on vinyl. Sagittarius season always awakens your inner homebody, Virgo, and the stars couldn’t have timed it better. If you’ve been missing quality family time, now’s the perfect moment to reconnect and make it a priority.
Libra: The naughty list
Hopefully, the saying is true, new year, new you. It must be tiresome, always believing yourself to be the victim in situations where you very well might be the villain. The two new moons this month bring a sense of self-actualization and reflection to you. Admitting you have a problem (or are the problem) is the first step in recovery.
Scorpio: The naughty list
New relationships are on the horizon for you, Scorpio, and if you jump into them without healing from your last, you may live long enough to see yourself become the villain. Feeling loved is something you hold close to your heart — but you tend to take the love of others for granted. People won’t always be there for you unless you give them a reason to.
Sagittarius: The nice list
Happy solar return, Sagittarius! Your season brings a whole new meaning to the most wonderful time of the year. With confidence and motivation at an all-time high, you’re the main character in your own coming-of-age story. Use this energy to chase what you want — whether it’s a new career, a new love or a fresh wardrobe — the stars are aligning in your favor.
Capricorn: The naughty list
The sun and a new moon will hit your sign at the end of the month causing the spotlight to return. The beginning of the month will be slow and thoughtful, but things will pick up in the middle giving you a second wind – right around the time Mercury goes direct. Don’t let the attention go to your head, it’s big enough.
Aquarius: The nice list
Strengthening relationships is your focus this month, Aquarius. Sagittarius season highlights the importance of community, encouraging you to foster meaningful connections. As the Sun shifts into Capricorn and the Winter Solstice arrives on December 21, you’ll embrace a quieter mood. While the holidays are often hectic, for you, they’re a time to relax and recharge.
Pisces: The nice list
You’re on fire this month, Pisces, with your eyes on the prize and the drive to turn dreams into reality. It’s not just about financial goals, though. When the Sun enters Capricorn on December 21, your focus will shift to strengthening connections with your community and loved ones.
