Gemini Monthly Horoscope December 2017

Gemini (Born May 22 to 31) and Gemini Ascendant 0 to 10 degrees Gemini:

December 2017 Gemini Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

Overview.

The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness

Until December 21st:

The Sun continues to put a spotlight on your solar seventh house--your partnership sector. This can be a time of much learning through the mirror of close relationships. It's not the time to push your agenda or personal plans forward; rather, it's a cycle in which you are at your best when you recognize the need to form alliances, to give back to a special someone, and to compromise in order to find some balance in your life.

It's a strong period for putting yourself into another person's shoes and to better understand him/her. You may be meeting with someone strong and assertive by nature now, or a partner is more assertive and needy of attention. There may be some competitive feelings between you and a significant other now. Focus is on reconciliation, forming or cementing bonds, diplomacy, consultation, one-on-one interactions, and negotiations. You may feel a little drained physically now, temporarily.

From December 21st forward:

The Sun energizes your sector of transformation, change, sexuality, personal growth, regeneration, others' money and resources, addictions, and taxes. As a result, this is not the most gregarious of months for you. You take a step back, focus on intimacy with a partner, or simply retreat a little from the hectic pace of life. This is an excellent time to create a budget or financial plan, or to rid yourself of bad habits that undermine your sense of personal power and self-mastery.

All that is deeply personal comes into focus now. Intimate matters are especially important to you during this cycle. Just how well you are handling your life comes up for inspection. Your self-mastery skills and psychological predisposition matter to you more than usual. This is the time of year when you are most desirous of change on a deep level. Clearing out psychic "junk" or ridding yourself of bad habits may be part of the picture now. You are more willing than usual to explore life's secrets.

This cycle brings greater in-depth understanding and an inclination to delve beneath the surface of matters to get to the bottom of them. Research uncovers new material that allows you to develop a better overall picture of the year's events. This is an especially introspective cycle during which you have the chance to truly uncover your personal strengths and talents. On a more practical level, you may be dealing with joint finances and shared resources now more than usual.

Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort

Until the 24th: 

Venus graces your solar seventh house during this period. This is a time for extra attention to a partner or significant other, as well as from that person! You are more inclined to flatter and charm others during this cycle. One-to-one relating appeals to you more than group activities or more casual connections. Smoothing out your close personal relationships is what makes you happy during this cycle. If single, you are more willing than normal to enter into a committed relationship. In general, you are adaptable when it comes to your affections--very willing to compromise, negotiate, and make peace.

From the 25th forward: 

Venus graces your solar eighth house now. During this cycle, a financial boost is possible, or you may gain financially through your partner. A deep and intimate connection made now could be revitalizing and even healing. You are more inclined to want to smooth over differences in a partnership concerning the sharing of power, intimacy matters, finances, and other emotionally-charged topics. Intimate relationships are intensified now. Either you or your partner want a deeper union.

Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation

All month:

Mercury continues to transit your solar seventh house. You can be especially aware of your "audience" in your communications now, which tend to be diplomatic and respectful during this cycle. You may be encountering an especially chatty or communicative partner, or meeting youthful, talkative people.

At this time, you love to hear others' opinions and perspectives, and it's an excellent time to do so. Others can spur on your own thinking and decision making processes now, simply by offering another perspective. You are thinking a lot about others, a partner, and relating in general, and in some cases perhaps worrying over these things.

Mercury is retrograde from December 3-22:

All Mercury retrograde cycles particularly affect you in terms of your personal presentation or image to others and communications with family because Mercury rules these areas of your life. Because Mercury is your sign's ruler, all of the common Mercury Retrograde issues may apply. Put off making important decisions with regards to family and domestic matters (Virgo-ruled for you) just now, and take care when it comes to communicating with family members.

Occurring in your solar seventh house this time, extra care should be exercised when it comes to negotiations and one-on-one communications. Be as non-judgmental as you can with a partner. There may be the need to revisit old issues in a partnership, or there could be some communication problems with a partner. An ex-partner may resurface during this cycle. Misunderstandings with your partner now can do some damage if you (or your partner) focus on the choice of words instead of the meanings behind the words. If you need to talk through problems, try not to over-react to what your partner has to say. Mixed messages coming from a partner, or a disappointment, could occur now. You may not be as adept at mediating disputes for the time being, but it's a good cycle in which to reflect upon your negotiation skills with the goal of improving them. Re-thinking a partnership arrangement is possible now, but you should avoid jumping to any premature decisions. It would be wise to be especially clear when it comes to communicating with partners; or take this time to re-examine issues rather than communicating about them prematurely.

Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage

Until the 9th:

Mars continues to energize your solar fifth house. This brings increased energy and enthusiasm to romance, child-rearing, and creative or recreational endeavors. It can also bring some strife to these areas of your world in some cases. For the most part, however, a romance could pick up pace, you are self-motivated and inspired on creative and expressive levels, and your self-confidence is well-received by others during this cycle. You are more willing to take little risks and you are competitive in a mostly friendly way. In your enthusiasm to take the lead, try to be sensitive to and respectful of others' needs.

From the 9th forward:

Mars animates and energizes your solar sixth house. You have more energy for work and your daily routines tend to speed up during this transit. Perhaps you have a larger workload than usual. It's a great time to take charge of your health. You have much energy at your disposal to pick up (or step up) a health and physical activity program. It might be hard for you to work with others in a harmonious manner during this transit, and disputes with co-workers are possible. If you are feeling especially angry, frustrated, or restless, it would be wise to find little projects and things to do so that you can channel excess energy constructively. If health is affected, fevers or infections are more likely.

Overview Horoscope:

December 2017: December is powerful for partnerships, dear Gemini, as well as for research and review. There can be new beginnings for an alliance after the New Moon on the 18th, and the 22nd brings more forward-looking energy to a relationship. There is a strong focus on partnering, socializing, and getting along with others this month. Later in December, financial or intimate matters take on more importance and may require specialized attention.

Mercury, your ruler, is in your partnership sector all month and is retrograde there from the 3-22. These things suggest quite a bit of work related to a particular relationship, romantic, business, or otherwise. You may be revisiting old issues or feeling stuck at times, but reflection ultimately serves you well. Do watch what you say and how you say it around the days of Mercury's station (the 3rd and 22nd). These are shift days that can be particularly confusing. Some might call you fickle, but it's Mercury retrograde inclining you to hold back, reconsider, or hesitate. This is, in fact, a highly useful process since your mind races ahead of you much of the time, and now you get a chance to digest all that's happened.

The emphasis on relationships this month is strong, and it's important to note that, after a three-year stay, Saturn is now exiting your partnership sector. There can be a sense of relief or release now. Saturn doesn't disappear from your chart, of course, and will turn your attention to financial and intimate arrangements going forward, but the shift that's taking place now takes the direct pressure off.

The Full Moon on the 3rd is powerful for you since it's in your sign, but potentially confusing this year. Full Moons often promote clarity, although they're exaggerated for effect and impact. However, this one brings in complex factors, so aim to reserve judgment! It's still a valuable moment of culmination and epiphany, and it's important to take strong note of any emotions that are stirred at this time -- but take your time forming conclusions and decisions! The 3rd is also the date when Mercury turns retrograde this month, suggesting the need to slow down and rethink things.

Mars continues its transit of your romance and creativity sector, animating these areas of your life, until the 9th. You are very willing to act on your ideas, particularly around the 5-6, and a partner or special someone may be integral in motivating you.

Mars begins its transit of your solar sixth house on the 9th, pointing to harder (and possibly hastier) work. Be more vigilant with health, as this transit can sometimes lead to overwork or the ignoring of needs for adequate sleep and proper nutrition. Channeled well, however, you can be highly motivated to get your work done, to take on a challenge, and/or to pour more energy into health and wellness programs. The trick now is to pace yourself.

While Saturn's change of signs points to areas of life that require more practicality, a Jupiter-Neptune aspect forms for the first time this month and encourages a more spiritual or imaginative approach in other areas. Interestingly, for you, Saturn wants more practicality in your emotional life, and the Jupiter-Neptune influence encourages a more faithful, spiritual, and creative approach to your practical life! Until August 2018, you're in an excellent period for enjoying work, showcasing your skills, finding work, and improving working relationships. There is powerfully creative, generous energy with you for matters related to your career and reputation. This can be a spiritually rich period as well. A vocation or life path/direction may seem to fall into place quite magically. The trick now is to relax on the need to strictly define your end goals and instead to focus on doing your best in the present, trusting that by doing what you love, you'll get where you need to go.

This can be a good time for coming up with creative solutions to problems, discovering a new line of thinking, a program for health management, or work idea. You typically welcome activity and movement in your life, but allowing time to process recent events and to enjoy the moment can be refreshing now.

Saturn leaving its opposition to your sign this month not only takes the pressure off relationships, but it also improves health considerably. This may only be about vitality and optimism, but these things count for a lot. You feel better, which positively impacts health.

On the 20th, 21st, and 25th, your eighth house brings in new guests, and you begin a cycle that's quite excellent for handling bad habits, simplifying your life, detoxing, and eliminating clutter or excess things. There can be a call to action along these lines around these dates. Until 2020, Saturn challenges you to clean up your life related to dependencies, intimacy, and what you share with others, including finances or debt. This is a time for tackling fears of losing control, betrayal, and rejection -- a tall order, but doable! You'll see hints of these themes towards the end of December. You're likely to end the year feeling a little more mature, satisfied, and vital.

Gemini (Born June 1 to 11) and Gemini Ascendant from 10 to 20 degrees Gemini:

December 2017 Gemini Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

Overview.

The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness

All month:

The Sun illuminates your seventh house. At this time of year, you have a greater need than usual to be with a partner. Bouncing ideas off someone helps you to better understand yourself. A partner provides a mirror for your own self-discovery. Now is the time to realize your own potential through a significant other. During this cycle, you focus on balancing your personal interests and objectives with your social life, or with those of a partner. The emphasis is on "us" rather than "me".

You need the energies, companionship, and support of other people, and they may also seek out your support and companionship. It's important to include others rather than to go solo for the time being. However, bending too much to the will of another is not advised either. Social interactions of a personal, one-on-one kind are emphasized. Circumstances are such that your diplomacy skills are required. Your popularity is increasing, and is reinforced by your own ability to cooperate and harmonize. Your ego and pride are tied up in how you relate to others now. This may be an especially busy time for people who consult or work with clients one-on-one.

Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort

Until December 9th: 

Venus continues to move through your solar sixth house now. This is a time when beautifying and/or bringing harmony to your working environment is a priority to you. You might find more opportunities to socialize with co-workers, perhaps even meeting a new friend through your work or health routines. You are likely to bring more tact and diplomacy to your relations with the people you work with now. You may not be as productive as usual during this period, as the focus is more on social relationships and pleasure than on getting the job done. Improving health and vitality through pleasurable activities such as massage might be in focus now.

AND Gemini Ascendant from 20 to 30 degrees Gemini:

December 2017 Gemini Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

Overview.

The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness

Until December 11th:

The Sun continues to spotlight your solar sixth house. This is a busy period that finds you tending to many different details of your daily existence--your work, various projects, organization around the home and office, your daily routines, and health matters. Your ego may be especially tied up in the work you do, so that you are proud and more creative than usual in your job. You may be in the position to take charge in your work, or to take charge of your health and diet. Sometimes this cycle relates to increased activities involving pets. You seek to perfect your skills or methods now, and you focus on the parts that make up the whole now in order to improve your daily life. As a result, you can be more critical than usual, but this process is necessary for you to sort out what works for you and what doesn't.

From December 11th forward:

The Sun illuminates your seventh house. At this time of year, you have a greater need than usual to be with a partner. Bouncing ideas off someone helps you to better understand yourself.

On the 20th, 21st, and 25th, your eighth house brings in new guests, and you begin a cycle that's quite excellent for handling bad habits, simplifying your life, detoxing, and eliminating clutter or excess things. There can be a call to action along these lines around these dates. Until 2020, Saturn challenges you to clean up your life related to dependencies, intimacy, and what you share with others, including finances or debt. This is a time for tackling fears of losing control, betrayal, and rejection -- a tall order, but doable! You'll see hints of these themes towards the end of December. You're likely to end the year feeling a little more mature, satisfied, and vital.
