December 2022 Scorpio Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

December 2022

The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness

Until December 11th:

The Sun continues to move through your solar first house. You experience a renewal of energy and vitality now, and it's a strong time for increased personal confidence. The emphasis is on self-expression, what kind of impression you make on others, and beginning new personal projects.

You are a little more self-centered than usual, and this is quite natural and healthy as long as you don't take it too far. You are more decisive and forward-looking now, and you put more faith in your own abilities. Physically, you are likely feeling strong. This is an excellent cycle for making personal changes in your manner or appearance, and for any self-improvement endeavors. Personal projects that you begin now are likely to blossom nine months down the road.

From December 12th forward:

The Sun highlights your second house now, and your focus is on material affairs and comfort issues. Security is a driving force for you at the moment, and you might find that you are especially interested in accumulating possessions. What you have and what you don't have come into focus--what makes you feel comfortable, your sense of security, and what you value.

This is the time of year when personal finances and possessions receive maximum attention. Pour your energy into your work and your finances, and you might just be able to take your ideas to the bank.

Extravagance with your pocketbook is something you may want to look out for, however. If you find yourself itching to make unnecessary purchases, know that at the root of this urge is the desire to pamper and comfort yourself. Nothing wrong with it, but there are inexpensive (and even free) ways to make yourself feel good.

This is not the most eventful time of year for you. You are more inclined to dig in your heels and hang on to what makes you feel most secure than to take big risks.

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

From the 1st to 25th: 

Venus transits your solar second house and, as the natural ruler of the second house, Venus feels right "at home" here. This is a rather content position for Venus, although there can be some restlessness when it comes to money and spending it—you are more inclined to want more things around you! Financial security and enjoyment of the good things in life are important to you, although you also value simple pleasures. The ability to relate well with others might enhance your own personal finances during this period. You may find yourself in a position in which there is a blending of financial matters with social or public affairs. This is a stable position for love matters and close relationships. You value those who make you feel comfortable, and familiarity is more important to you than someone new during this cycle.

From December 26th forward:

With Venus moving through your solar third house during this period, you are mostly cheerful in your approach to others, and perhaps somewhat intellectual, during this transit. Essentially, you are quite companionable now. You enjoy talking about what interests you, and you find great value in the exchange of ideas. Sometimes this transit brings benefit through siblings, communications, or short trips. During this period, you are most attracted to wit, cheerfulness, and verbal rapport. You are especially good at mediating conflicts. Smoothing over differences using your diplomacy skills figures now.

Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation

Until December 21st: 

Mercury continues to transit your solar second house. You might play with various ways to increase personal funds, resulting in more than one avenue for monetary gain. Avoid letting undue pressure from others push you into signing important papers that may create a serious financial commitment. Shopping when experiencing nervous tension should also be avoided. Your mind is always active with new ideas for an increase of income during this cycle. Brothers or sisters, or communications, may be a source of financial or material gain or loss now.

From December 21st forward: 

Mercury is right at home in the third house and offers a natural curiosity, facility with words, and the ability to multi-task successfully. More time spent on the phone, writing emails, in the car making short frequent trips, chatting, running errands, communicating with neighbors and siblings, visiting friends and relatives, and doing paperwork is likely now. There can also be a tendency to fuss over insignificant matters now, however.

Also, "information overload" is also a possibility. This may be a busy time with neighbors, classmates, siblings, and community affairs. Your interests are especially varied now and perhaps scattered. It's an ideal time to pick up information from your environment and the people in it, as your tendency is toward a certain level of intellectual detachment just now. Your mind is often distracted, particularly when circumstances call for you to stick to the routine, so this is not the best transit for focusing on one task or project.

Your mind is especially inquisitive during this cycle, when learning, short trips, and other forms of communication and making connections, appeal strongly. Some are fidgety or nervous during this cycle, perhaps due to increased errand-running, phone calls, and the like. Others enjoy the challenge of tackling a variety of subjects. As well, talking, writing, and studying can be good ways to handle stress.

Mercury is retrograde from December 29th to January 18th: 

All Mercury retrograde cycles particularly affect you in terms of communications with friends or groups, as well as intimate communications and shared financial resources, because Mercury rules these areas of your life. It would be wise to be especially clear when it comes to financial transactions and personal communications with friends, or, better yet, take this time to re-budget or rethink your plans instead of taking premature action. Group meetings may be postponed or cancelled, and friends may seem distant or confused.

Occurring in your solar third house this time, extra care should be exercised when it comes to composing letters, emails, making phone calls, and with communications in general. There may be the need to revisit old, nagging issues with siblings or neighbors, errands could go wrong, you might have trouble getting from point A to point B (example, transportation problems), emails or letters get lost, and so forth. Idle chit- chatting during this period may have repercussions! People might be misunderstanding your words. You may be forgetful during this cycle, and it makes sense to allow yourself extra time to get to appointments, if they are not cancelled in the first place! It would also be wise to double-check your work and communications before sending them off.

Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage

Mars is retrograde from October 30th, 2022, until January 12th, 2023:

All Mars retrograde cycles affect you in the areas of work, daily activities and routines, and/or health. Events might conspire to slow you down in these areas, forcing you to reassess how you've been managing this part of your life. Frustrations with your daily routine can be part of the picture now. Energy levels may seem low. Mars is your co-ruler, so you may be dealing with issues of image, personal presentation, and physical appearance or health as well.

Occurring in your solar seventh house during this period, enthusiasm for a partnership or coming from a partner could appear to be waning. A partner could seem to be less direct or could be harder to reach. Partnering projects or initiatives, or negotiations, could stall, or you could find that you are less confident about expressing yourself well in a one-to-one manner. Watch for pent-up anger and passive-aggressiveness with partnerships. A lover may be especially intense or obsessive, or you could experience this in your own behavior. Refocus, backtracking, and review become necessary and recommended now. This cycle forces you to reorganize your energy with regards to people and partnerships. You could be re-assessing the ways in which you approach relationships, as well as what it is you want from your relationships. You are doing very important "work" that can benefit you greatly. You have the chance to reassess how you've been dealing with partners or potential partners, and you may be finding new and improved ways to get along. If you're stimulating angry situations, you need to consider your role in the interaction. If you're coming on too strong, you need to find ways to tone things down.

Overview Horoscope:

December 2022 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Scorpio:

December brings a strong focus on establishing yourself, money matters, making connections, learning, and commuting, dear Scorpio. You pay more mind to issues of security and the enjoyment of the good things in life. Financial activity, including pressures or concerns, can be themes, but so can comfort levels and goals that help you feel more secure.

However, the Full Moon on the 7th pulls your attention away from your own needs towards matters of sharing and support. Emotions escalate surrounding money, ownership matters, and your intimate life. It can be a time for recognizing your need for others or dealing with issues of support that need sorting.

Retrograde Mars in your intimacy sector continues to stir up previously buried matter. Resentments can surface if people in your life are not taking something (or you) seriously enough. This transit can slow things down, particularly with finances, support, and relationships. Mars might awaken a need to reorganize your finances or stir up feelings about a past relationship, especially around the 7th, when the Full Moon aligns with Mars. There can be more to this unfolding story, but revelations now are integral to future change and improvement. They help get the ball rolling, in other words!

This month, you're well-positioned to discover more about yourself and your needs — what you truly want and value — through conversation, interactions, and reflection. You can benefit from natural or earthy activities that renew your connection to the world around you or the world of the five senses.

Activities that remind you of the simple pleasures in life are in high favor. Seek ways to strengthen or stabilize your finances, valuables, or home through maintenance or upkeep.

Mercury and Venus move into harmony with your sign--and your communications sector--on the 6th and 9th. While a retrograde Mercury from the 29th may lead to misunderstandings, you're expressing yourself with wonderful flair. If you focus on pacing yourself, this can be an advantageous period. Your charm shines through in your communications and gestures during this period.

Especially after the 21st, when the Sun also transits this sector of your chart, you can have much success with designing, writing, and teaching. You might discover new or improved ways to connect, whether this is about communicating or commuting. You're in good shape to exchange ideas, which can be valuable for lifting spirits.

You're also looking at your projects, entertainment, love in your life, relationships, and relationship needs in new ways. While there can be some communication fits and starts, projects dear to your heart can be most satisfying this month. You enjoy studying, teaching, and connecting. You're likely to have various interests or projects in the works that excite and motivate you. While life is busy, it feels energizing rather than chaotic much of the time.

The New Moon on the 23rd brings new and improved energy for learning, studying, and connecting. It's a great time to put out your feelers for interesting ideas.

Jupiter moves back into your solar sixth house this month, and until mid-May, your motivation to improve your health, daily habits, work, and routines increases. Finding more joy and satisfaction in your daily affairs can figure strongly during this period. Things will improve further after Mars turns direct on January 12th. You might find new meaning in your everyday life and duties. Your confidence in making healing, helpful, and empowering changes is building.
