(December 21 – January 18)
General

The universe asks you to turn inward to prepare for your coming New Solar Year.
Consider December 2024 as your cosmic cocoon, where transformation takes place quietly, but powerfully.
When the Sun enters Capricorn from December 22, 2024, your new Solar Year begins, your personal New Year! Congratulations in advance, Capricorn.
Love and Relationships
The New Moon in Sagittarius on December 1, 2024 is a good time to keep a diary of everything you experience this month in the area of love.
Venus in Aquarius from December 8, 2024 brings a fresh perspective on self-esteem and personal values. A new way of thinking, a breath of fresh air ensures that you also look at yourself and relationships with a different perspective. Venus in Aquarius gives you more appreciation for your unique qualities and you know how to set boundaries in relationships. With this attitude, you automatically attract partners who know how to appreciate you for who you are.
With Mercury retrograde in Sagittarius, it is advisable to postpone an important decision about your relationship, but rather focus on reflection and reassessment. Perhaps you will think very differently about your partner and the role you take in the relationship.
Single Capricorn must adopt a light-hearted attitude in December 2024 and there must be open talk in the permanent relationship. Stay attentive and vigilant in relationships, Capricorn.
Family and Home
Saturn is the astrological ruler of Capricorn. From November 15, 2024, Saturn is direct in Pisces again. The time has come to put the insights of the past months into practice.
The New Moon in Sagittarius on December 1, 2024 is a great time to take it easy at home. Due to the influence of Mercury retrograde in Sagittarius until December 14, 2024 and Mars retrograde from December 6, 2024, it is actually the calm before the storm, so take the time to come to yourself. Make the house cozy and organize in advance.
Due to Jupiter retrograde square Saturn in Pisces, there may be a last-minute job that needs to be done at home. During the busy holidays, also make time to go outside for a nice walk. The best conversations take place outside, so if there is something to talk about with friends or family, Mother Nature is the best catalyst to restore harmony and make compromises.
Career
Retrograde Jupiter in Gemini (House of Work) shows that success in December 2024 also depends on the cooperation of your superiors, customers or colleagues, so make sure you have a good understanding. Mars retrograde in Leo from December 6, 2024 to January 6, 2025 is a good time for planning and research. Take the time to review existing business contracts and partnerships, reevaluate financial agreements, and review insurance policies.
Hold off on signing important business contracts until Mercury is direct again on December 15, 2024, but better yet, wait until January 3, 2025, when Mercury is out of its shadow period.
The Gemini Full Moon on December 15, 2024 in your 6th House of Work is a great time to slow down in the second half of 2024 and reflect on the past year. What have you accomplished? Have the goals you set out to achieve at the beginning of 2024 been achieved?
This Full Moon is a good time to resolve issues with a business partner or client, wrap up existing projects at work or at home and reorganize your daily routine.
Finances
Aquarius is the second House of Finance and Valuation for Capricorn.
Venus in Aquarius (2nd House) from December 8, 2024 supports opportunities to earn more money. With Venus in Aquarius you gain more self-confidence and therefore take a good negotiating position in a financial conversation.
So more money comes in, but caution is advised with making expenses during the holidays.
Mars retrograde in Leo from December 6, 2024 affects shared finances and investments.
There may then be possible delays in receiving expected payments, but there is the opportunity to renegotiate and reassess financial partnerships.
With the Full Moon in Gemini on December 15, 2025, there may be financial news about a tax refund, an inheritance or deferred payment and that applies mainly to the Capricorn born between December 21 and 25.
With Pluto in Aquarius, your views on money and material possessions will change or transform significantly. Money and possessions are then no longer about having-having, but what you can do with them. In the long run, you can come to the conclusion that possessions are very relative. Spiritual possessions and moral values will play an (even) greater role in your life.
