Virgo December 2024 Monthly Horoscope

Virgo, happy December, and welcome to the last month of 2024! In November, Pluto settled into Aquarius, where it will stay for the next 20 years. But this month, you'll be more focused on things that are happening right now, like two moon events that could affect your work and social life.

December is going to rev up your motivation and excitement. You'll feel super driven and ambitious, ready to go after your goals with a vengeance. It's an awesome time for making progress in your career and starting new projects. Just watch out for possible conflicts in your personal relationships. Remember to be patient and diplomatic to keep the peace and harmony.

This holiday season, your inner homebody might be on full display. Your private life, home, and family could be your top priorities. You might find inspiration in romance, fertility, and true love this month. Creative projects or just having fun could be your big focus in December too. Mistletoe kisses and a New Year's Eve date are pretty much guaranteed.

But first, mark your calendar for Friday, December 6th. That's when Mars, the planet of action, goes retrograde in your spiritual 12th house. Mars is usually all about being bold and assertive, so when it's retrograde, it's a great time to tap into a softer, more introspective kind of spirituality. Try something that's all about self-care, like taking a spiritual bath or having a cozy night in with your tarot cards.

Also on December 6th, Venus, the planet of love and beauty, enters Aquarius and your 6th house of health and wellness. If you're in the mood to revamp your skincare routine, check out some beauty award winners for inspo. The next day, on Saturday, December 7th, the asteroid Ceres also moves into your 6th house. Basically, Virgo, this first weekend of the month is all about getting cozy at home and pampering yourself.

December 7th also brings some good news for your love life. Neptune, the planet of dreams and romance, ends its retrograde in your 7th house of partnerships. If you've been feeling a little 'meh' about dating lately, that should start to shift. Neptune going direct can also help clear up any misunderstandings in your relationships. So if you do hang out with a love interest this weekend, skip the wild parties and opt for a chill night in or a yummy dinner date instead.

On Sunday, December 15th, Mercury, your ruling planet, ends its retrograde. With Mercury Direct again, communication mix-ups should calm down. If any annoying exes have been blowing up your phone, hopefully, they'll take the hint and leave you alone. Mercury goes direct just in time for holiday travel too.

Also on the 15th, there's a full moon in Gemini lighting up your 10th house of career and public image. Full moons bring things to a head and help us see results. While we can't promise anyone a promotion or bonus (especially not in this economy), we can tell you when the stars are on your side career-wise. And thanks to this full moon and Mercury going direct, December 15th is one of those days.

The sun moves into Capricorn on the Winter Solstice, December 21st. It's the shortest day of the year and the pagan holiday of Yule. A lot of Yule traditions, like decorating trees and lighting candles, were actually adopted by Christmas. Since it's the shortest day of the year, it's perfect for getting cozy with family and friends.

The holidays can be tough for a lot of people, and this year might be especially hard. If you're looking for a good day to connect with your chosen family after dealing with relatives, circle December 29th on your calendar. That's when Chiron, the 'wounded healer,' ends its retrograde in your 8th house of deep bonding and transformation. Even if you have a great relationship with your family, some of your friends might not be so lucky. Reaching out to your crew is the best way to tap into the healing vibes Chiron is offering up.

The month wraps up with a new moon in Capricorn on December 30th. New moons are all about fresh starts and new beginnings. This one is in your 5th house of pleasure, romance, and creativity. It's ideal for getting sexy, indulging in some self-care, or doing anything that just feels good. If you're in the mood to dress up in sequins and hit a New Year's Eve party, go for it. But if you'd rather stay in and have a cozy night at home, that's great too. Do whatever feels right for you. Happy New Year, Virgo! See you in 2025.
