The following are alternate horoscopes written by a different author for all signs for the month ahead:
Monthly Horoscopes December 2019
Aries (March 21st - April 19th)
It’s a big picture month for the Rams of the Zodiac. In other words, it is time to stop sweating the details, if you ever have, and focus on a world view. What is your belief about the world at large? What are your own spiritual or religious beliefs? Is Global warming a real issue? These are the types of queries that are at the forefront this month. It’s time to use your initiative and natural leadership skills and help others. This may involve healing, either healing your own past hurts or helping others overcome doubt and hardship.
Taurus (April 20th - May 20th)
As a Taurus you like consistency. The only consistent message that exists for you at the moment is “change”. This is not something that comes easily. However, as other Signs of the Zodiac know change can be refreshing. The trick is to discover which areas of your life need a makeover and to embrace the challenge. It is likely that the alterations required are connected with self-improvement, health and lifestyle matters. Look on the positive side. Change is as good as a holiday, so the saying goes. Perhaps you can book a life-changing holiday?
Gemini (May 21st - June 20th)
Whenever the Sun sets its course for your opposite Sign Sagittarius you are able to charter a new course, often influenced by someone nearest and dearest. This year is no exception. The time has come for some future goal setting, an overseas vacation to be booked or perhaps a spiritual retreat planned. You may be busy now but it’s important to set your intent to make changes to your lifestyle. Health and happiness are integrally related. You need to listen to messages that are being related by a personal or business partner. Taking note now saves problems later.
Cancer (June 21st - July 22nd)
The planets are strongly aligned in Capricorn, your opposing Sign indicating that other people need your tender loving care right now. You are being asked to take a more practical approach right now. It may be difficult to put your emotions to one side, but this is your challenge. Capricorn is a logical Sign. Can you be more pragmatic this month? You may feel that something is simmering under the surface, something that you can’t quite understand at the start of the month. An Eclipse on December 26 (AEDT), once again in Capricorn, sheds light.
Leo (July 23rd - August 22nd)
Your workaday life has been the focus recently, and continues to be during most of December. However, all work and no play makes for a dull life. You need to find ways to make your daily life more fun. This could mean taking a break after an Eclipse that occurs on December 26 (AEDT) or you could find ways to spark up your days. If nothing else try taking a different route to work, adding a bunch of flowers or a candle to your work place or entertaining your colleagues with a daily funny story. Small pets can also brighten your day.
Virgo (August 23rd - September 22nd)
So many planets are in your fellow Earth Sign Capricorn which augurs well for a productive month. The Sun is sitting in the 4th House of your Solar Chart indicating a strong connection with home and family. Hence this is the ideal month to catch up on housework, enjoy family events or perhaps indulge in some recreational cooking or gardening. You may also have a significant association with a child, or children, this month particularly around December 26 when a Solar Eclipse occurs in the 5th House of your Solar Chart.
Libra (September 23rd - October 22nd)
Home and family are your anchor this month, however; you also need to connect with others. Neighbours, siblings and extended family all feature. If you have been meaning to take a short trip, attend a neighbourhood meeting, catch up with a sibling, write emails, make calls or pen a bestseller then this is the month to get started as the Sun is sitting in the 3rd House of your Solar Chart. The 3rd House is all about communication. So, reaching out to others through any form of connection be it word-of-mouth or travel is important.
Scorpio (October 23rd - November 21st)
A tidy house is a tidy mind could be your motto during December. For various reasons it is an ideal month during which to put your house in order. You have a message to communicate and the best way to get started is to put your foundations right, and perhaps to establish a home study or office. A trip to the stationery shop may provide some much-needed amusement. Be careful not to spend too much money. Money matters are likely to receive a boost, but only if you ensure that your income is more than your expenditure.
Sagittarius (November 22nd - December 21st)
A very busy year slows down, or should do if you listen to the messages from the planets. Your ruling planet Jupiter moves out of your Sign on December 3 into slow and steady Capricorn. This heralds a time to consolidate changes that have occurred during 2019. An Eclipse on December 26 is likely to highlight what you can let go of and what needs to be maintained. Money is likely to influence your decision. As the Sun traverses your Zodiac Sign you can take a moment or two to celebrate your achievements and reassess your goals.
Capricorn (December 22nd - January 19th)
Your Zodiac Sign is brimming with planets right now. Not only that but there is a Solar Eclipse in Capricorn on December 26. What does this all mean? Well it is certainly your time to reap a few rewards from the challenges that have faced you in recent times, particularly if you have tackled these responsibilities with integrity. Capricorn is all about slow and steady achievement. So, keep going. More work is required and more rewards are coming. Adopting spiritual practices that encourage patience, compassion and simplicity. Others are likely to need your guidance in these matters in the year to come.
Aquarius (January 20th - February 18th)
It is time to connect with friends, or groups and clubs, that support your own hopes, dreams and wishes. Recent changes may have given you more time to pursue your own interests. So, fill your calendar and start socialising. Most Aquarians love a good cause whether it be environment, local or global politics or something else close to your heart. What is yours? How do you want to be of use to humanity? You now have the opportunity to answer these questions, renew your faith in a cause and move forward.
Pisces (February 19th - March 20th)
Your professional life is highlighted during December. While others may be winding down for a Christmas break, depending on where you live, you are ramping up. Perhaps your career makes extra demands this month. Alternatively, you may be seeking more recognition, training or a promotion within your chosen profession. It is also possible that your marital status is the source of extra attention for various reasons now. Whatever your personal scenario you are able to move forward on your chosen path. Satisfaction, dedication and enjoyment are to be sought.
Monthly Horoscopes November 2019
Aries (March 21st - April 19th)
Looking back is not your usual modus operandi. You are a go forward at full throttle type of person. Nevertheless, this month is about looking over your shoulder just to make sure that you are not dragging matters from the past along with you now. Memories, dreams and flashbacks are all signals that you might need to do a bit of emotional housekeeping. This can be a profound period during which symbols and synchronicity play a big part. Compromise and strategy are also required now with your ruling planet Mars in your opposing Sign of Libra.
Taurus (April 20th - May 20th)
When the Sun moves into Scorpio, your opposing Sign, then other people become the focus. It is time to negotiate your way through tricky waters within a key personal or business partnership. Scorpio is the Sign of emotional intelligence and deep waters. Therefore strategy, tact and an intimate understanding of the issues involved are called for this month. You may need to start with greater awareness of your own needs, before you can commit to another person or business contract. You are in the long-term process of learning to adapt as the planet Uranus traverses Taurus.
Gemini (May 21st - June 20th)
Lifestyle matters are the forefront this month. This means everything that you do on a daily basis. As the saying goes, habits form behaviour, behaviour forms character. What habits do you need to change? Do you need to eat more healthily? Exercise more? Tidy your living or work space? These are the matters that need attention now. The minutiae rather than the big picture. If you think of photography then it is time to change the telephoto lens to a macro. Observe the details that need to be altered.
Cancer (June 21st - July 22nd)
It is time to access your inner child. What does that mean? Play, fun, freefalling without a care in the world. Think creatively. What can you do that is fulfilling in the freest sense of the word? If someone gave you a million dollars what would you do with your time? The answer to these questions gives you the impetus to plant some seeds this month. If you have been too busy looking after those who rely on you then you may not instantly have the answers. November then becomes a time to explore possibilities.
Leo (July 23rd - August 22nd)
This time of the year is usually one in which you need to get your house in order. This can mean anything from tidying and redecorating to repairing and renovating. Your house, and perhaps also your housemates, need attention. If your job requires you to work away from home then you need to maintain a strong connection to where you belong. Otherwise you may feel a little lost without your usual comforts. Homesickness is a strange phenomenon and can teach much about your true feelings. Family comes first this month.
Virgo (August 23rd - September 22nd)
Your ruling planet Mercury has turned Retrograde indicating that this is a month during which you may have second thoughts about many areas of your life, but most particularly matters connected to your immediate neighbourhood and relatives, such as siblings. It is time to question whether your critical thoughts hold truth. Behind every person is a story, one that requires understanding and compassion not judgment. The same can be said for yourself. You need to soften, rather than lower, your standards.
Libra (September 23rd - October 22nd)
November starts with a little self-reflection as you ask yourself what people, projects and plans are worthwhile. This gives you the impetus to discard what is no longer worthy and to move forward with a lighter load. By November 25, when your ruling planet combines with the effervescent Jupiter, you are ready to leap forward in many areas of your life, but particularly in key relationships. You are lucky in love and money as long as you remain true to yourself. You need to know your own worth before others recognise it.
Scorpio (October 23rd - November 21st)
November sees a boost in your personal income which in turn sees you focus on your own health and happiness. The planets are lined up in a way that suggests meaningful exchanges that boost your self-esteem and your financial health. The planet of communication, Mercury, is Retrograde in your Sign. Therefore, you do need to think carefully before you speak, write or accept a contract. Nevertheless, careful planning at the start of the month heralds success by the end when Mercury heads forward again.
Sagittarius (November 22nd - December 21st)
November is often a time during which the Archers of the Zodiac need to slow their pace and recharge the batteries ready for another gallop forward. This year is no different. Like many of your Zodiacal colleagues you need to re-evaluate your activities. In your case the planet Jupiter has given you plenty of opportunities this year. Now you need to assess your priorities. As much as you would like an endless stream of energy even your fiery enthusiasm has limits. So where to next? What are your most important goals? And can you narrow the options down a little?
Capricorn (December 22nd - January 19th)
Self-development continues to be a theme as the planets Pluto and Saturn wend their way slowly through your Zodiac Sign with any indication of relief yet. These are serious times for Capricorns with not much light relief. The trick is to keep your eye on the end game. This is not instant gratification but rather all good things come to those who endure and wait. Your endurance and patience pay great dividends in the near future when lucky Jupiter moves into your Sign. So, take a deep breath knowing that the end is in sight.
Aquarius (January 20th - February 18th)
Your status improves in November. You receive recognition for your achievements in your professional life or in a group or club. It is possible that you are promoted either at work, or to an office bearer’s role in a club. Planets are high in your Solar Chart placing you high in your public roles. In some cases, your relationship with authority figures such as parents, bosses or government officials could also be highlighted. You can make the most of the high esteem in which you are held to further your own professional goals.
Pisces (February 19th - March 20th)
At long last the planet Neptune, to which all Pisceans are tied, is turning direct heralding happier times. A dreamer at heart, you can now move forward with a plan or project that is close to your heart. This may be connected to the arts, philanthropy or spiritual pursuits. Your patience is about to be rewarded. This is not an overnight success matter, but rather something that you can now gradually move forwards, rather than experiencing frustrating delays. You still need to be sensitive to everyone’s part in your vision.
Monthly Horoscopes October 2019
Aries (March 21st - April 19th)
Action-oriented Rams are not accustomed with opposition but that is what you are likely to encounter this month if you insist on having your own way. October is not about you. It is about your nearest and dearest, in particular any Librans who may be in your inner circle. The time has come for you to engage co-operation from others. If you are leader then you need to consider the team objectives. If you are in a family then your relatives’ needs are at the forefront. Like it or not compromise is the name of the game.
Taurus (April 20th - May 20th)
Lifestyle matters. The daily habits that you adopt have long-term effects. October provides stubborn Taureans with a chance to stop any bad habits and implement life-enhancing ones. This can range from physical eating habits to emotional patterns. It is time to assess all of the attitudes that have become entrenched and ensure that they benefit you both in the short and long-term. If in doubt then ask those nearest and dearest. They are likely to be delighted to be consulted having observed you chewing your cud, so to speak, for so long.
Gemini (May 21st - June 20th)
October is a merry, fun-filled and creative month for Geminis. The Sun, Mercury and Venus all reside in your fellow Air Sign Libra at the start of the month heralding a pleasurable, perhaps even artistic month. Your child-like qualities are emphasized now. Others enjoy observing or joining in on your antics. Any artistic or creative projects are likely to be fruitful, reaching full potential by the end of the month. As a result of your efforts you may also receive recognition or rewards from a prominent person, perhaps a Sagittarius.
Cancer (June 21st - July 22nd)
Home-loving Cancerians are likely to welcome the news that October is about hunkering down, like your Zodiac symbol the crab. Your private life is highlighted meaning that it is time to focus on immediate household and family matters. So you can fluff up the cozy cushions and settle in for some at-home couch time or perhaps dust off some recipe books and cook up a storm. It doesn’t matter if you focus on your abode’s inside or outside environs, or if you live alone or in a busy household. Your living quarters are the hub.
Leo (July 23rd - August 22nd)
Clear communication is your key to success this month. Words – verbal or written – carry extra weight. Even words left unsaid can have extra meaning if your facial expression gives away your thoughts or feelings. As such it is time to decide what really matters. You need to ponder the truth before you open your mouth. This is particularly true when it comes to siblings or neighbourhood disputes. Diplomacy is called for. It is also possible that a craft, artistic, transportation or communication project demands your attention during October.
Virgo (August 23rd - September 22nd)
Money matters are front and centre this month. Good Virgos are usually frugal and shrewd fiscal operators. You know how to budget, when to purchase a bargain and when to walk away. Therefore, you may only have to make a few minor tweaks to your personal budget. On the other hand, the time may have come to ask for a raise, or to apply for a job that attracts a better renumeration package. It is also possible that you have been a little too tight-fisted when it comes to cash flow. October sees you consider your alternatives.
Libra (September 23rd - October 22nd)
It is not often that you get to say “me, myself and I” but this month you can. October is all about you! You can celebrate all of the good things and people in your life, rid yourself of anything or anyone who does not appreciate your people-oriented skills and generally move forward with your personal goals. The Sun, Mercury and Venus are all in your Zodiac Sign at the start of October meaning that this is an excellent month for you to create a vision board that promotes your own health and happiness.
Scorpio (October 23rd - November 21st)
It’s secret women’s or men’s business this month for Scorpio. Fortunately, you are good at keeping secrets. Something is brewing behind the scenes. This could be a project of your own, or someone close. The trick is to make sure that any scheme is ethical and not questionable. Pluto, the dwarf planet often associated with Scorpio, turns direct on October 3 and so you can be sure that everything will come to light by the end of the month. It’s possible that you may receive a personal financial boost as the lucky planet Jupiter is in your Solar money sector.
Sagittarius (November 22nd - December 21st)
Get ready for a busy month socially because the planets are aligned in the public sector of your Solar Chart. Friendships are likely to blossom. You may join a social, sporting or communal group or club. You are keen to connect with like-minded people who can support your hopes, dreams and wishes. Social media groups may also feature more prominently than usual. Your personal finances require some serious planning this month, so be careful not to overspend even if you do receive a large sum of money. Your own health and happiness are a priority.
Capricorn (December 22nd - January 19th)
You may be pleased to learn that obstacles are about to clear from your path. Two planets – Saturn and Pluto – turn direct after a prolonged Retrograde period. This clears the way for you to move forward. You see results for your hard work. Some adjustments are still to be made. Nevertheless, you can see gains for your investments of time and money. The foundations are laid and you can now see an end in sight. This is likely to be connected to your professional life. However, you may also see financial rewards coming your way.
Aquarius (January 20th - February 18th)
Politics interests you as long as it is fair and above board. This month sees you somehow embroiled in a political situation. This could be an interest in world affairs, or it could be family or office politics. The trick is to keep a broad mind. You have the ability this month to rise above the daily problems and see the big picture. You can benefit from anything that broadens your horizons such as planning a trip abroad, conference or a study course. Even an interest in sports or religion could feature.
Pisces (February 19th - March 20th)
Metaphysical matters seem to be at the forefront for Pisces this month. As a sensitive Pisces you are well aware of the undercurrents of emotions that most people blithely sail across. This month your senses are heightened. Seasons come and seasons go. You need to observe, accept and then let go of any intense feelings. This way you gain greater understanding and remain emotional engaged in a positive way with those closest to you. This is particularly true if a powerful woman is upsetting your equilibrium. As usual meditation, prayer and relaxation techniques help.

Current Moon Sign
Moon in Aries
We're motivated by a strong desire to start fresh. A gut instinct to start something new is with us now, as well as the gumption to do so. Our pioneering impulses are strong, and we feel energetic, spontaneous, and enthusiastic. We may also be tactless and impulsive now. Excess energy is best channeled into physical activity.
The Moon in Aries generally favors the following activities: Quick actions that yield immediate results. Undertakings that involve the self and the personality. (Staying power may be lacking). Self-assertion, taking on challenges, beginning short-term projects.
