Overview for this Month: Gemini (All)
December 2022 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Gemini:
December is often about your connections and specialties, dear Gemini, with a focus on your sectors of one-on-one relationships and intimacy. Your powers of attraction are strong, and you're more interactive and connected. It can be a time of reaffirming a commitment to a particular path regarding relationships. You're seeking harmony and balance this month.
The Full Moon on the 7th is more emotionally-charged for you than usual since it occurs in your sign and aligns with retrograde Mars in Gemini. It's a motivating time of self-discovery and recognition of feelings and needs you may have been holding at bay or brushing to the side. It comes at a highly relationship-focused time with strong activity in the partnership sector of your solar chart. After all, recognizing your feelings and needs is an essential process as you explore your partnerships, dependencies, and relationship needs.
Around this Full Moon, built-up anger and frustration can come to a head. People may be reacting to your sporadic assertiveness, and it's best to release frustrations in healthy ways. Be willing to implement needed changes in your life, both inside and out.
Transits highlight your need for companionship or balance and harmony. A career matter, direction, goal, or significant project can unblock. If you've been on the fence about a path to take, you'll intuitively begin to move in the right direction. You are open to new insights and understanding, and you can be pretty pleased with your work and the things you've accomplished. Conversations can help you move forward.
Mercury and Venus move into your intimacy sector on the 6th and 9th, and the Sun does the same later in the month, on the 21st. With these ingresses, you become more and more introspective as December progresses. Conversations and interactions tend to be a little more profound than usual, or they don't hold your interest for long! It's a great time to get closer to a special someone or project. You're more focused, interested, and present.
This can be a time of redefining what you want and need from others--as well as what you can expect from yourself. And, if intimate relationships can benefit from a new start or vision, the New Moon on the 23rd directs you. You can be motivated to work out ordinarily tricky emotional issues or power dynamics, as you're bringing quite a bit of objectivity and fairness to these matters. You're expecting a little more from your projects and relationships.
Mercury turns retrograde in your intimacy sector on the 29th, and there can be minor complications with money, sharing, intimacy, and dependencies. It can be a time for reassessments or waiting for answers on financial and relationship fronts, but it can also give you the opportunity--in the form of a blessing in disguise--to better pace yourself.
Jupiter moves into your friendship sector on the 20th and will continue there until mid-May, helping you find more joy and satisfaction in your social life. Chiron is already a guest in this area of your solar chart, and on the 23rd, ends its retrograde cycle. Friendships or group associations seem more robust, and you're more influential and charming with others. You'll feel increasingly better equipped to deal with problem areas. You're helping and understanding others rather than allowing insecurities slow you down.

Gemini (Born May 22 to 31) and Gemini Ascendant 0 to 10 degrees Gemini:
December 2022 Gemini Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
December 2022
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, Pleasure
Until December 9th:
Venus continues her trek through your partnership sector. Meaningful and harmonious relationships--both social and romantic--define you during this cycle, affecting your mind, body, and soul. Financial or social success may come to or through your marriage partner at this time. Special attention to and from a partner is in focus, and flattery works to your advantage! Give to a partner exactly what you would like to receive just now. It's not about you right now--it's about someone else close. Smoothing out your close personal relationships is what makes you happy during this cycle. You have a greater need than usual for contact and exchange with an intimate partner. 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.
From December 9th 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
Until December 6th:
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.
From December 6th forward:
Mercury transits your solar eighth house. You are more intuitive now than usual, picking up all of the hidden cues from people around you and reading between the lines. This is an excellent cycle in which to do some financial planning and strategizing.
Research is also highly favored. It's easier for you to approach sensitive, intimate, and personal matters with rationality and logic. As such, this is a great time to open up conversations about topics that normally might cause waves, such as those revolving around the sharing of power, intimacy, and finances.
Mercury is retrograde from December 29th to January 18th:
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 eighth house this time, extra care should be exercised regarding any financial initiatives that involve shared resources. Delays are very possible when it comes to receiving support, loans, and taxes. It may be better to side-step arguments with loved ones that revolve around intimacy and sexuality just for now, or approach these matters with more sensitivity if they can't be left for a better time. Investments made now may not go the way you want them to, particularly those involving joint finances. It may be hard to rely on the input of your partner now, and money you were counting on may not be forthcoming. It's best to budget rather than spend during this period, and in fact it's an excellent period for review. It would be wise to be especially clear when it comes to communicating with financial officials and intimate partners; or take this time to re- examine issues rather than communicating about them prematurely.
Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
Mars is retrograde from October 30th, 2022, until January 12th, 2023:
All Mars retrograde cycles particularly affect you in terms of your friendships, group associations, networking, business income, and dreams/wishes because Mars rules these areas of your life in your solar chart. Challenges are possible now. Enthusiasm for generating business income, for group or community activities, and/or friendships may wane, perhaps due to some problems or setbacks in these areas of life. You may be temporarily confused about long-term goals.
Occurring in your solar first house now, this Mars retrograde cycle is very up close and personal! The ways that your survival instincts have served you to date may not seem to be as effective, or you might be feeling cautious and withdrawn in a general way now. You might find that you are second-guessing yourself, and this is a natural process as you reassess how you've been going about meeting life and reacting/acting, which may need some polishing! It's a good time for refining these things. Your personal initiatives and confidence are affected. Perhaps you are less confident about your effectiveness and more cautious about sharing yourself with others. Personal initiatives might need to be put on the back burner, or you could show less enthusiasm for them. You may be a little tired and more accident-prone during this cycle, so be sure to rest up.
You are also examining the way anger has helped or impaired your life and coming up with new ways to manage it. In the process, you can experience some real frustrations. The end result, ideally, is a much-improved "you." It's time to rethink, revise, and reorganize your plans. Backtracking is a good idea now. How you assert yourself and how you go about going after what you want out of life are up for review now.
Watch for unacknowledged or buried desires driving your behavior.

December 2022 Gemini Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
December 2022
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.

December 2022 Gemini Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
December 2022
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 12th 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. A partner provides a mirror for your own self-discovery. Now is the time to realize your own potential through a significant other.

Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort
From the 1st to 25th:
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 December 26th 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.

All Mars retrograde cycles particularly affect you in terms of your friendships, group associations, networking, business income, and dreams/wishes because Mars rules these areas of your life in your solar chart. Challenges are possible now. Enthusiasm for generating business income, for group or community activities, and/or friendships may wane, perhaps due to some problems or setbacks in these areas of life. You may be temporarily confused about long-term goals.
Occurring in your solar twelfth house during this period, your spirituality, private life, gut instincts, and intuition are affected. Perhaps you are not as confident about your hunches. Private affairs and solitary work might need to be put on the back burner, or you could show less enthusiasm for them. Trusting your gut instincts may become an issue. Vague fears and anxieties need to be dealt with. Obsession with private matters or concerns about the past could be part of the picture. Your desire nature can be rather complicated now, and it can be difficult to find direct routes to satisfaction. Old resentments, hurts, and waves of anger can resurface. There can be lowered vitality, likely due to emotional frustrations and exasperation. It's time to rethink, revise, and reorganize your plans. Backtracking is a good idea now. This is a time for learning about how your mental health impacts your life.

Your powers of attraction are strong, and you're more interactive and connected. It can be a time of reaffirming a commitment to a particular path regarding relationships. You're seeking harmony and balance this month.
The Full Moon on the 7th is more emotionally-charged for you than usual since it occurs in your sign and aligns with retrograde Mars in Gemini. It's a motivating time of self-discovery and recognition of feelings and needs you may have been holding at bay or brushing to the side. It comes at a highly relationship-focused time with strong activity in the partnership sector of your solar chart. After all, recognizing your feelings and needs is an essential process as you explore your partnerships, dependencies, and relationship needs.
Around this Full Moon, built-up anger and frustration can come to a head. People may be reacting to your sporadic assertiveness, and it's best to release frustrations in healthy ways. Be willing to implement needed changes in your life, both inside and out.
Transits highlight your need for companionship or balance and harmony. A career matter, direction, goal, or significant project can unblock. If you've been on the fence about a path to take, you'll intuitively begin to move in the right direction. You are open to new insights and understanding, and you can be pretty pleased with your work and the things you've accomplished. Conversations can help you move forward.
Mercury and Venus move into your intimacy sector on the 6th and 9th, and the Sun does the same later in the month, on the 21st. With these ingresses, you become more and more introspective as December progresses. Conversations and interactions tend to be a little more profound than usual, or they don't hold your interest for long! It's a great time to get closer to a special someone or project. You're more focused, interested, and present.
This can be a time of redefining what you want and need from others--as well as what you can expect from yourself. And, if intimate relationships can benefit from a new start or vision, the New Moon on the 23rd directs you. You can be motivated to work out ordinarily tricky emotional issues or power dynamics, as you're bringing quite a bit of objectivity and fairness to these matters. You're expecting a little more from your projects and relationships.
Mercury turns retrograde in your intimacy sector on the 29th, and there can be minor complications with money, sharing, intimacy, and dependencies. It can be a time for reassessments or waiting for answers on financial and relationship fronts, but it can also give you the opportunity--in the form of a blessing in disguise--to better pace yourself.
Jupiter moves into your friendship sector on the 20th and will continue there until mid-May, helping you find more joy and satisfaction in your social life. Chiron is already a guest in this area of your solar chart, and on the 23rd, ends its retrograde cycle. Friendships or group associations seem more robust, and you're more influential and charming with others. You'll feel increasingly better equipped to deal with problem areas. You're helping and understanding others rather than allowing insecurities slow you down.

About Our Monthly Horoscopes:
Our detailed monthly horoscopes are designed to reveal and interpret the current transits of the Sun, Mercury, Venus, and Mars in your solar chart.
Because these energies or transits do not unfold neatly into any given calendar month (many transits carry forward from one month to the next), you will find some of the energies continue from the previous month.
For example, the Sun might transit the second house of your solar chart from June 21 to July 22, so that you will find a similar interpretation for this transit in both June and July’s horoscope. This is normal and expected. Transits don’t suddenly change as the calendar month changes.
These monthly horoscopes also include an overview paragraph, as well as other energies specific to the month, such as retrogrades, eclipses, or major outer planet transits.
The Highlights section reveals lunar cycle dates. Lunar cycles repeat themselves approximately every 28 days, so it is normal to see the same lunar peaks, such as “Your Personal New Moon” and “Monthly career peak” repeat themselves from month to month, but with different dates. They serve as a helpful guide to cycle peaks in different areas of life, such as financial, career, romance, and partnership.
The horoscopes are divided into three groups or decanates, and the differences between the groups are subtle in parts and large in other parts. For those who prefer a whole sign approach to horoscopes, simply read the first decanate regardless of your birthdate.
