Well, here we are, Aries. The very last month of 2020—a year that will undoubtedly be remembered for generations to come. Believe it or not (hint: believe it), December is one of the most intense months of this entire year (and we’ve had a lot of intense months!), so buckle up, baby.
First up, the month kicks off with a Lunar Eclipse in Sagittarius on December 14. Eclipses are always a big deal, but this one is particularly meaningful because it’s the halfway point of an ongoing eclipse narrative (earlier eclipses in this series took place on June 5 and November 30, respectively). Eclipses open new doors by slamming others shut—so, through December 2021, you may discover that your relationships with your peers, colleagues, and even siblings are transforming radically. These eclectic lunations speed up the inevitable, so don’t be surprised if you end up leaving certain bonds in the dust. No, change is never easy…but trust that there’s a method to the madness. As long as you honor your truth, the cosmos will take care of you!
Next up, two major important astrological milestones: On December 17, Saturn—the planet of rules and responsibilities—will be making the extraordinary pivot into Aquarius…and this time, Saturn is setting up camp (Saturn will remain in Aquarius until March 7, 2023). What does that mean? Well, Aries babes born between 1991 and 1994 should start preparing to begin their infamous Saturn Return. (For those living under a rock, your Saturn Return is basically your astrological coming-of-age; it’s when you come face-to-face with your responsibilities and learn to define yourself as an independent, autonomous individual. You know, NBD).
Even if you’re not preparing for your Saturn Return, this motion will have a tremendous impact on your chart, changing the ways in which you experience your community, technology, and innovation. Will you start a new social media platform? Become TikTok famous? Organize a historic revolution that confronts deep-seated societal injustices? You decide!
What’s more, just two days later, Jupiter will also be moving into Aquarius—a zodiac sign is hasn’t occupied since early 2010. While Saturn is all about rules and responsibility, Jupiter is about good fortune and expansion, sprinkling a wee bit of luck into even your most serious endeavors. As this humanitarian air sign shifts your focus to justice, this is an excellent time to leverage your newfound influence to work for radical social change. Jupiter will move through Aquarius for most of 2021 (though, due to its retrograde, it will have a brief hiatus in Pisces from May 14 through July 28), so don’t be afraid to to broaden your horizons. Whether you’ve been planning on launching a podcast, reaching new customers, or simply cultivating bonds with people who truly ~get you~, Jupiter is ready to help you change the world!
Mark your calendar for December 21—this is a day to remember! Not only is it the beginning of Capricorn season (the Sun’s movement into this hardworking earth sign illuminates your inner-hustle), but Jupiter and Saturn are aligning for the first time in literally twenty years! Known as the “Great Conjunction,” Jupiter and Saturn uniting in Aquarius kicks off two distinctive cycles: a 20-year cycle (these celestial bodies won’t meet again until 2040) and a 200-year cycle (their alignment in Aquarius ushers in the “Age of Air” that will continue through the year 2380). So at least try to make some good decisions, okay? In order to solidify long-term success, don't be afraid to challenge yourself right now. Go above and beyond!
Phew, that’s a lot! But, in classic 2020 fashion, it’s not over yet. On December 29, a Full Moon in Cancer illuminates the areas of your chart associated with home and career, inspiring you to explore the relationship between these two spheres of reality. How does your personal life influence your professional aspirations? How do your career goals inform your domestic space? Whether you’re moving out, starting a new job, or simply building momentum to finish folding your laundry, trust that lunation is guiding you towards success. You got this, Aries! See you in 2021!
