Your Weekly Horoscopes: December 15 to 21, 2024

Family drama has been a constant this holiday season. The full moon in Gemini on the 15th finds you in the midst of your worst sibling argument yet. This isn’t just about seating arrangements or invite lists, it’s about values. You always knew your brother’s politics were bad, but not this bad. If you want things to calm down by the time Capricorn season begins on the 21st, you’re going to have to take the reins and set a respectful tone.

This week’s mantra: “Above.”

The full moon in Gemini on the 15th brings a boost to your bank account. At the eleventh hour, you finally get that holiday bonus or well-deserved raise. This win might be bittersweet though, because one of the closest people in your life is struggling. Part of your process right now is holding your own happiness just as tightly as you do others’ problems. That all being said, the extra cash is also a major boost to your self-confidence. You’re becoming a powerful leader.

This week’s mantra: “Solid.”

The full moon in Gemini on the 15th has you reeling and overwhelmed. You’ve been so focused on other people for the last few weeks, caught in a cycle of yearning. It’s alarming to have all that light and attention shining back on you now. As Mercury stations retrograde on the 15th and you get back on track, the most grounding thing to do is ask for help. Capricorn season begins on the 21st welcoming you to a season of collaboration.

This week’s mantra: “Light.”

Whether you’re taking a planned vacation or stuck at home sick, the full moon in Gemini on the 15th finds you in do not disturb mode. However you arrive at this pause, it’s vital that you get some rest and commit to healthier routines. Capricorn season begins on the 21st, and for you this shift brings grounded relationships and practical support. You’re ready to pull yourself out of the dark and have a conversation about it.

This week’s mantra: “Release.”

The full moon in Gemini on the 15th is your most social night of the year. You have work events, friend events and even a date thrown in there. Though it’s fun to flit from party to party, make sure to watch your spending too. It’s easy to blow your budget when the vibes are this good. Things take a turn for the serious when Capricorn season begins on the 21st ushering in your most disciplined time of year. 

This week’s mantra: “Balance.”

The full moon in Gemini on the 15th marks a breakthrough moment for your career and public life. With the moon conjoining expansive Jupiter, you’re getting a clear picture of all the growth you’ve experienced through putting yourself out there. At the same time, you’re also finally getting over the family drama that had made the rest of this month unbearable. Capricorn season begins on the 21st welcoming you to the most playful time of your personal year.

This week’s mantra: “Celebrate.”

Last week’s creative sparks become this week’s long-term plans. The full moon in Gemini on the 15th lights up your travel and education sector pushing you to show up more fully as a teacher or mentor. You’re still feeling a bit uncentered in your daily schedule and routines, but trust that you’ve cleared enough clutter to close the year at peace. The sun moves into Capricorn and your home sector on the 21st affirming your need for grounding and rest.

This week’s mantra: “Explore.”

The full moon in Gemini on the 15th falls in your shared resources sector and could bring an unexpected gift, bonus or act of generosity. You’ve spent so much time worrying about resources over the past few weeks, and this windfall helps you materially or energetically get over your biggest hump. At the same time, you can’t rely on this kind of boost in the future. The sun enters Capricorn on the 21st encouraging you to sit down and make a plan for continued success.

This week’s mantra: “Map.”

The full moon in Gemini on the 15th is a breakthrough moment in one of your closest relationships. So much of your energy over the past few weeks has been self-focused, and whether it’s been all self-love or more self-criticism, it’s a relief to give your energy to someone else instead. A sweet day trip with your partner or bestie on the 19th is a lovely way to break out of your usual routine and get some inspiration for the new year.

This week’s mantra: “Mirror.”

The full moon in Gemini on the 15th is your busiest day of the year. The work that’s been piling up all month can no longer be ignored and you’re stuck giving a presentation, hauling your kids to choir practice and rushing to an emergency vet appointment all in the same day. Though much of the rest of the week is spent in sheer exhaustion, a true reset arrives when your season begins on the 21st.

This week’s mantra: “Light.”

The full moon in Gemini on the 15th is a chaotic but fun moment in your dating journey. Who says you can’t bring someone from Hinge to the work holiday party? Who says it’s too much to write a love poem after the third date? You’re finding so much joy through self expression this week. Don’t suppress it. Once Capricorn season begins on the 21st you’re ready to take a step back and hibernate for the rest of the year.

This week’s mantra: “Imagine.”

Though it’s hard to pull yourself away from family plans and end of year meetings, joy is found this week through stepping outside of your usual routine. Grab a coffee in a different neighborhood. Schedule a phone call with a friend you haven’t caught up with in years. The full moon in Gemini on the 15th is in your home sector putting a spotlight on all the growth you’ve experienced from the root this year. Remember: this is only the beginning of a beautiful story.

This week’s mantra: “Commence.”
