General daily overview for December 8, 2024
Left, right, up, down – today we are trapped in the center of a cosmic game of tug of war. The Moon in Pisces starts things off with a square to chatty Mercury in Sagittarius, ramping up the excitement, only for it to hit a wall as the Moon then joins icy Saturn at 3:43 a.m. EST. We better be serious! The Moon will continue to form a square to powerful Jupiter in Gemini and the primordial Sun in Sagittarius, making it difficult to determine a single outcome.
Ram
March 21 – April 19
It’s okay if you want to see the world for the day. The focus is on internal work and being alone with your thoughts as the Moon in your calm 12th house joins stoic Saturn, allowing you to understand and act on your intuition. You may be able to find a solution to a pending problem or experience an important realization. But right now, it won’t be as easy if you surround yourself with a lot of people.
Bull
April 20 – May 20
Be mindful of who you choose as your current mate, Taurus. Some people can entertain themselves while draining your energy, and with the karmic Moon and Saturn conjoining in your 11th House of Interactions, now is not the time to be frivolous with your business. Instead, focus on the most important and useful connections in your life. If you feel like you could use a few more, consider setting aside time to seek out more meaningful contacts or strengthen the ones you already have.
Gemini
May 21 – June 20
There is no need to rush into anything. In fact, the planets are telling you to slow down and let your intuition guide you as the Moon aligns with Saturn in your 10th House of Goals. You’re willing to block out all the extra noise and get serious about what you need to do to reach your personal finish line. This doesn’t mean you actually have to go through it now, just that Saturn is helping you in your strategizing efforts, so use it.
Cancer
June 21 – July 22
Today, it may require extra effort to expand your horizons, but that doesn’t mean it won’t be worth it. The Moon flies over your 9th House of Travel and, as it evolves, it joins the masterful Saturn in this same sector, emphatically drawing your attention to the possibilities offered. These possibilities may require you to roll up your sleeves or jump through a few hurdles to make them a reality, but you are more than capable of handling such complications.
Lion
July 23 – August 22
You may have to face the music today. It may not be an entirely pleasant process, as the Moon syncs with Saturn in your 8th House of Intimacy, forcing you to take everything seriously, from important finances to the deepest bonds of your relationships. A debt can be repaid, and then you will have to make the repayment or sue someone who hasn’t done their fair share. Now is not the time to look back.
Virgin
August 23 – September 22
Relationships take effort if you want them to work. This goes for all kinds of relationships, whether romantic, professional, or platonic. You’ll need to do your part as the Moon joins Saturn in your 7th House of Contention, highlighting the most important issues in your life. You may need to resolve an issue or two with a loved one, especially if your connection has found itself on uneven ground. Focus on getting back to an equal position and you will succeed.
Balance
September 23 – October 22
They say the devil is in the details, but that’s also where your task for the day lies. The Moon is in your mature 6th house, helping you streamline your life and tasks on your to-do list. You will be able to tackle all of this much more effectively once the Moon joins Saturn in this same sector. Be serious and focus on all the essential tasks ahead of you – this way Saturn can help you in your efforts to complete them in a timely manner.
Scorpio
October 23 – November 21
Taking time to play is just as important as taking time to work. The Moon and Saturn come together at the same degree in your exuberant 5th house, making it your personal mission to pursue your pleasures and see where they take you. This is a rather artistic sector, so this would be a good time to take up writing or try another creative activity. Even if you’ve never attempted to make art before, the experience should be very rewarding.
Sagittarius
November 22 – December 21
Stay focused close to home. The Moon in your warm 4th house joins sober Saturn, making it the perfect time for a little spring cleaning, whatever the season. You may need to address some issues around the house, perhaps a repair or renovation of some sort. A loved one might also pose a problem or two, potentially making you feel like you’re the one who needs to fix things. Then treat yourself to a comfortable night on the sofa.
Capricorn
December 22 – January 19
Keep your eyes and ears open, Capricorn. The Moon is passing through your 3rd House of Correspondence. During her stay, Luna will join Saturn, making it likely that important interactions and conversations await you. This is fine, as long as you speak with honest kindness and avoid frivolous gossip or idle chatter, because someone (including you) might say something that comes back to haunt you. Avoid potential conflicts by saying only what is necessary.
Aquarius
January 20 – February 18
Your value system needs to be inspected. The Moon and Saturn come together in your 2nd House of Material Boundaries. This can trigger a scarcity mindset, even if you have no real reason to feel that way. It can’t hurt to review your finances and check for any discrepancies, as you might find some money-saving measures painless if you do so. If all is well, try looking for ways to make your money work for you.
Fish
February 19 – March 20
Try not to take yourself too seriously at the moment. There’s no need to feel obligated to be your most mature and effective self, although you may want to when the Moon aligns with stoic Saturn in your 1st House of self-expression. However, don’t force yourself to be an adult in every situation and don’t worry about others when they can cope perfectly well on their own. Instead, use this positive energy to meditate on your goals and create updated strategies to achieve them.
