Libra December 2024 Monthly Horoscope

Libra, welcome to December! Last month, we talked about how Pluto, the planet of big changes, finally settled into Aquarius, where it will stay for the next 20 years. While you're probably still thinking about the global shifts that happened in November, this month is all about taking care of yourself and your community during the holiday season.

December is going to give you a big boost of energy and social vibes. You'll be extra good at communicating, which makes it an awesome time for having deep talks and making new friends. It's perfect for networking and expanding your social circle. Just be careful not to overdo it. Make sure to set boundaries so you don't get too tired or burned out.

On December 1st, the sun and moon team up in your 3rd house of communication and local community. It's a good time to rethink how you talk to your neighbors, siblings, and friends. Keeping an open mind is key. You might also be focused on your home and family life, so by the end of the year, you'll be feeling really comfy and settled where you are.

On Friday, December 6th, Mars, the planet of action, goes retrograde. When Mars is retrograde, we usually feel less bold and confident. Some people might notice changes in their sex drive too. But since this is happening in your 11th house of friendships, the changes will be pretty mild for you. You might just want to have more low-key, cozy hangouts with your friends. Either way, it's a reminder to make time for your crew, even if you're traveling later this month to see family for the holidays.

Also on December 6th, Venus, your ruling planet, enters Aquarius and your 5th house of fun and romance. This brings out the sweet, affectionate side of your relationships, making this weekend extra lovey-dovey. The next day, on December 7th, the asteroid Ceres also moves into your 5th house. It's a great excuse to treat yourself, whether that means buying a new sex toy or just taking a long, relaxing bath. Self-care is the name of the game.

December 7th also brings some good news in the self-care department. Neptune, the planet of dreams and spirituality, ends its retrograde in your 6th house of health and wellness. You'll be focused on taking care of others this weekend, but when Neptune goes direct, it's a reminder to take care of yourself too.

Heads up - there might be some tension on Thursday, December 12th. Venus goes head-to-head with retrograde Mars, which could lead to some bickering in your relationships. You don't want to ruin the good vibes from the weekend before, so keep prioritizing self-care.

Circle Sunday, December 15th on your calendar. First, Mercury ends its retrograde and goes direct, which should clear up any communication mix-ups. If you've had any exes sliding into your DMs, they'll probably take the hint and back off. And if you've been the one hitting up an ex, maybe it's time to let them be.

There's also a full moon in Gemini on the 15th, lighting up your 9th house of travel, learning, and spirituality. Full moons bring things to a head, so you might have a big 'aha' moment around this time. Some Libras will feel called to go to church or connect with their ancestors. Others might want to do a tarot reading. Keep a journal by your bed to write down any important dreams or insights.

The sun moves into Capricorn on December 21st, the Winter Solstice and the pagan holiday of Yule. A lot of Christmas traditions actually come from Yule, like lighting candles and decorating trees. It's the shortest day of the year, which makes it perfect for getting cozy with your loved ones by the fire.

For the next few weeks, the sun will be in your 4th house of home and family. If you have to see relatives this year and it's stressful, remember that your chosen family counts as family too. Make sure to set aside time to hang out with them.

On December 29th, Chiron, the 'wounded healer,' ends its retrograde in your 7th house of partnerships. When Chiron goes direct, it brings healing to the area of life it's affecting. This is a really sweet holiday vibe for all your relationships, romantic and platonic. If this weekend is your first chance to see your chosen family, know that you'll feel the love, even after a tough year.

The month ends with a new moon in Capricorn on December 30th, in your cozy 4th house. New moons are all about fresh starts. Spend this one making plans for how to stay connected with your community in the new year.

Happy holidays, Libra! See you in 2025.
