Horoscope Overview for December 2019 for Taurus:
Uranus in your sign has the effect of speeding up your life, supplying you with the courage to mix things up a little, dear Taurus. Changes in your life direction are likely during its long transit of Taurus. At the very least, you express yourself in ways that surprise the people around you. Impulsive decisions are possible. You need to make a few changes in your life, and you now have the courage and drive to do so. Make changes in your routines, but think twice before you take action that you may regret later when things calm down.
This month, Jupiter moves into harmony with your sign and with Uranus. Jupiter has been encouraging introspection and a deeper connection with your desires and needs. This spiritual regeneration begins to direct outwards from December 2nd, as you seek to expand your mind, social circle, or activities with renewed faith in your powers to do so.
Jupiter's influence on your sign starting now and until December 2020 can be nothing short of fabulous, especially with its trine to Uranus this month. Your ability to communicate your ideas improves multiple times over, and your popularity increases. You are an idea machine, and your hunches are often spot-on. This is a time for gathering inspiration. Later, Jupiter will join forces with Pluto and work on making serious improvements, but for now, you're discovering what you want to achieve.
This transit stimulates a more adventurous, spirited approach to your world. While Saturn and Pluto are still transiting this area of your chart, imparting rather serious energy, there's the potential for a nice rounded-out experience.
You have Jupiter (from the 2nd), the Sun (from the 21st), your ruler, Venus (until the 19th), and a Solar Eclipse on the 26th in the sector of your chart that rules publishing, promotion, travel, adventure, belief systems, world cultures, higher education, and the law, such that any of these areas, if appropriate to your current conditions, can figure strongly.
December is a time of enthusiasm, creative enterprise, self-expression, and letting go of inhibitions. Situations seem to highlight your unique and original offerings. You're exploring new ideas and approaches and learning exciting new things. There can be circumstances occurring now that release you from restriction in some significant way, and breakthrough thinking. You're rising above small problems and discomforts as you tune into the bigger picture and gain perspective. You're more optimistic and confident now and in the year ahead. Generally speaking, it's a more outgoing, active, spontaneous period of your life. Over the coming year, there can be new opportunities to learn, publish, communicate, promote, and travel. You may discover new and exciting channels for self-expression.
Still, Mars opposes your sign all month, and this means others seem to be taking the lead more often than you. It could also point to tensions in a close relationship, although with things out in the open, resolutions become possible. Collaboration or shared activities can thrive, however, once you've sorted things out. A friend, networking, or group activity might facilitate a positive connection.

Taurus (Born April 21 to 30) and Taurus Ascendant from 0 to 10 degrees Taurus:
December 2019 Taurus Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
December 2019
Overview.
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until December 21st:
The Sun continues to highlight your solar eighth house. Your attention turns inward, as well as to close personal relationships on a deeper level. Personal transformations, personal power, and intimate matters fulfill you most during this cycle. There may be a strong focus on other's money, such as the resources of a partner, inheritance, banking and loans, or taxes.
You are more intense in your mood and disposition, and perhaps even secretive, at this time of year. You are more in touch with the deeper and even primal elements of your own personality, and more able to see these things in others. This can be a determined and personally powerful time of year if you apply the energy of this transit constructively.
From December 22nd forward:
This month, with the Sun spotlighting your solar ninth house, your focus turns outward, away from the more personal concerns that have occupied your thoughts in the last months. More than any other time during the year, you are feeling most adventurous and willing to take a leap of faith. This is a cycle in which you seek a higher meaning to your life, and/or seek out new experiences that take you beyond the here and now, and beyond the mundane details of day-to-day life. Anything that broadens your experiences attracts now.
A lack of superficiality finds you straight to the point, interested in the truth of things. It would be wise for you to consider scheduling a vacation, adventure of sorts, or a course that expands your mind. These don't have to happen now, but taking the time to recognize your needs for escaping the daily grind, taking a few risks, and feeding your spirit for self-expression through some form of adventure or higher learning, will help you to feel good about yourself. The only caution with this cycle is that you could lose touch with managing everyday affairs and important details.
Eclipses
An Annular Solar Eclipse occurs on December 26th: A general rule of thumb regarding eclipses is to avoid major decision-making in the week before and after an eclipse. This is because new information that could change our perspective often is revealed in the week after the eclipse. There is absolutely no need to suspend projects already in progress. Essentially, it's better to take in right now--to observe and get in touch with feelings. The Solar Eclipse marks a new beginning for you. Letting go of the past is necessary in order to move forward. This eclipse occurs in your solar ninth house, suggesting that a new approach to the way you expand your horizons, be they physical or mental (or both). New travel plans, education goals, or adventures may be formed in the coming months, and a sense of renewal and reinvigoration with regards to your ability to expand your personal world is a strong potential. This is a phase when you will be especially busy initiating new projects or activities that expand your mind, feed your spirit for adventure, and stretch your imagination. You may feel renewed by a new perspective on your life, something philosophical or spiritual that you read or learn, or an adventure that takes you away from the mundane routines in your life.
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort, Pleasure
Until December 19th:
Venus continues to grace your solar ninth house. During this cycle, your ideals in love are set high. You might become inspired by a loved one now, or someone might awaken a new perspective or way of thinking in you. You could also enjoy a trip, or a new adventure of sorts. In fact, you are attracted to anything that is non-routine and fare best when you are reaching out beyond your usual bounds. You might be attracted to people or even objects that are exotic or different in some way during this cycle. It's a good period for personal charm and attractiveness in general.
From December 20th forward:
Venus graces your solar tenth house now. During this cycle, you are most charming and well-received on the job. Your responsibility and authority are likeable qualities now, making this a favorable period overall for schmoozing with those in a higher position than you, as well as for negotiations or social activities related to business. Venus is charming, friendly, and affectionate, and her presence in your career and reputation sector brings social opportunities to your career. You are coming across well at work now, and romantic opportunities, or simply more chances to socialize and network, are likely. You are socially ambitious right now, and success may come through your good managerial qualities or some form of artistic talent, or, indirectly through your marriage partner. People who turn your head during this cycle are those who come across as especially competent.
Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation
Until December 8th:
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 9-28:
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.
From December 28th forward:
Mercury transits your solar ninth house. Not content to focus on mundane, practical affairs just now, your mind turns to bigger visions, thoughts, and ideals. You are open to expanding your knowledge base during this cycle, and communications from or with someone far away may be part of the picture.
You are putting everything into perspective now, rather than compartmentalizing. Instead of simply shooting the breeze, you are more inclined to discuss broader philosophies now. Your inclination during this cycle is to think about the "big picture" rather than the mundane circumstances and details of your life. Missing appointments and other forms of forgetfulness could be part of the picture now.
Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
All of December:
Mars continues to move through your solar seventh house. During this period, strife is possible in your close personal relationships, as a significant other is now mirroring some of your own issues with assertiveness and anger. Attracting aggression in others during this cycle is a clue that there are unresolved issues within that need tending. You might actually seek some form of conflict, whether intentionally or not, in order to deal with these issues. There can be competitiveness in your life now. Any troublesome issues that have been dormant in a relationship are likely to surface, and can now be handled straightforwardly.

Taurus (Born May 1 to 10) and Taurus Ascendant from 10 to 20 degrees Taurus:
December 2019 Taurus Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
December 2019
Overview.
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
All month:
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.
Eclipses
An Annular Solar Eclipse occurs on December 26th: A general rule of thumb regarding eclipses is to avoid major decision-making in the week before and after an eclipse. This is because new information that could change our perspective often is revealed in the week after the eclipse. There is absolutely no need to suspend projects already in progress. Essentially, it's better to take in right now--to observe and get in touch with feelings. The Solar Eclipse marks a new beginning for you. Letting go of the past is necessary in order to move forward. This eclipse occurs in your solar eighth house, suggesting a new approach to the way you share money and resources or get along with a close partner on an intimate level. New intimate liaisons or arrangements surrounding support from others (loans, joint finances, alimony, and so forth) may be formed in the coming months, as well as a sense of renewal and reinvigoration with regards to your ability to employ self-mastery skills. This is a phase when you will be especially busy initiating new projects or activities that increase your resources. You may experience increased awareness of others—what makes them tick—as well as your own internal motivations during this period. It is a time when intimacy and deep levels of sharing are heightened. It is also a favorable time to start a financial plan, savings plan, take out a loan or consolidate, and do work in accounting.
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort
Until December 3rd:
Venus continues to move through your solar eighth house during this period. You are attracted to the deeper elements of relationships and social interactions now, rather than what you meet on the surface. Mysteries fascinate you and you could be looking for others' motives for doing and saying what they do. It's a good time to feel supported by others, whether it's financially or emotionally. It's also a strong cycle for discovering your own hidden talents as well as fascinating things about a partner.
From December 4-27:
Venus graces your solar ninth house during this period. A taste for the exotic takes hold during this cycle. Routine affairs simply don't seem to satisfy. You receive pleasure from anything that expands your horizons, both physically and mentally. Foreign people and places may particularly appeal now. You tend to be expansive and generous when it comes to love. A love interest who attracts you during this cycle may be somebody who you previously wouldn't consider attractive, or someone whose cultural background is very different than yours. You have a taste for the exotic and the spirit to match. Public relations work, promotion, and other such endeavors are favored now. It is more about how you express yourself than the specifics of what you are saying that helps sway others to your position. There could be especial rapport with foreigners and with women if you are traveling during this period. You are all the more attractive and charming with this position, which increases your popularity. If a romance were to begin now, it is more likely to be with someone of a different background or educational level, or someone you meet through travel. You have a taste for the exotic now that can show up in many areas of your life--who you are attracted to, what you buy, the kind of art or entertainment you enjoy, and so forth.
From December 28th forward:
Venus graces your solar tenth house now. During this cycle, you are most charming and well-received on the job. Your responsibility and authority are likeable qualities now, making this a favorable period overall for schmoozing with those in a higher position than you, as well as for negotiations or social activities related to business. Venus is charming, friendly, and affectionate, and her presence in your career and reputation sector brings social opportunities to your career.

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.
Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
Until the 3rd:
Mars continues to animate and energize your solar sixth house. Energy and initiative for work, health, and other daily activities increase. You are self-motivated when it comes to these matters. If there are disagreements and disputes that erupt on the job now, they may be due to a feeling of stress or impatience, or they could come from your desire to get things done independently. It's best to apply energy productively to completing projects that are unfinished or even to get ahead of yourself. It's a strong period for feeling motivated for starting a new health or fitness routine.
From the 4th forward:
Mars energizes and animates your solar seventh house. Partnerships may suffer from ego conflicts, or opposition from others may be challenging. Use the extra energy that Mars brings to this sector of your chart to work cooperatively on relationship problems. You may even find that you seem to need someone's help in order to do what you want to do during this cycle. Relationships are vivacious and dynamic during this period. When a difference arises, you are quick to settle it, and have little patience for sweeping matters under the rug. Your close personal relationships are lively during this cycle--full of conflicts and resolutions or reconciliations.

Taurus (Born May 11 to 21) AND Taurus Ascendant from 20 to 30 degrees Taurus:
December 2019 Taurus Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
December 2019
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until December 11th:
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 12th 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.

Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation
From December 2-22:
Mercury transits your solar seventh house. You tend to weigh the pros and cons of every issue during this cycle, taking into account others' needs as well as your own. Some indecisiveness is possible now, simply because you naturally entertain opposing viewpoints. You have a strong desire to cooperate and communicate with others now. You feel most comfortable spending time with people on a one-to-one level, or with those with whom you share a personal history.
Interestingly, your own thoughts become clearer through dialogue with others during this window. You may be doing public relations work, counseling, negotiating, or arbitration during this cycle. There is a lot of emphasis on communications with partners and best friends at this time. You can use the power of words to advise others or to make peace with people in your life. You are more diplomatic than usual during this transit.
From December 22nd 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.

Horoscope Overview for December 2019 for Taurus:
Uranus in your sign has the effect of speeding up your life, supplying you with the courage to mix things up a little, dear Taurus. Changes in your life direction are likely during its long transit of Taurus. At the very least, you express yourself in ways that surprise the people around you. Impulsive decisions are possible. You need to make a few changes in your life, and you now have the courage and drive to do so. Make changes in your routines, but think twice before you take action that you may regret later when things calm down.
This month, Jupiter moves into harmony with your sign and with Uranus. Jupiter has been encouraging introspection and a deeper connection with your desires and needs. This spiritual regeneration begins to direct outwards from December 2nd, as you seek to expand your mind, social circle, or activities with renewed faith in your powers to do so.
Jupiter's influence on your sign starting now and until December 2020 can be nothing short of fabulous, especially with its trine to Uranus this month. Your ability to communicate your ideas improves multiple times over, and your popularity increases. You are an idea machine, and your hunches are often spot-on. This is a time for gathering inspiration. Later, Jupiter will join forces with Pluto and work on making serious improvements, but for now, you're discovering what you want to achieve.
This transit stimulates a more adventurous, spirited approach to your world. While Saturn and Pluto are still transiting this area of your chart, imparting rather serious energy, there's the potential for a nice rounded-out experience.
You have Jupiter (from the 2nd), the Sun (from the 21st), your ruler, Venus (until the 19th), and a Solar Eclipse on the 26th in the sector of your chart that rules publishing, promotion, travel, adventure, belief systems, world cultures, higher education, and the law, such that any of these areas, if appropriate to your current conditions, can figure strongly.
December is a time of enthusiasm, creative enterprise, self-expression, and letting go of inhibitions. Situations seem to highlight your unique and original offerings. You're exploring new ideas and approaches and learning exciting new things. There can be circumstances occurring now that release you from restriction in some significant way, and breakthrough thinking. You're rising above small problems and discomforts as you tune into the bigger picture and gain perspective. You're more optimistic and confident now and in the year ahead. Generally speaking, it's a more outgoing, active, spontaneous period of your life. Over the coming year, there can be new opportunities to learn, publish, communicate, promote, and travel. You may discover new and exciting channels for self-expression.
Still, Mars opposes your sign all month, and this means others seem to be taking the lead more often than you. It could also point to tensions in a close relationship, although with things out in the open, resolutions become possible. Collaboration or shared activities can thrive, however, once you've sorted things out. A friend, networking, or group activity might facilitate a positive connection.

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 change because 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 horoscopes are divided into three groups or decans, 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.
Learn all about the signs of the zodiac. We offer interpretations of the Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, and the Ascendant in the signs:
