Astrology Forecast for December 2011 and All Sun Signs

December will begin with eclipse energy vibrating and three planets in retrograde, including Mercury. But, by the time this month ends and 2012 begins, all planets will be moving forward and life will be approaching normalcy. Luckily, the eclipses will be over and Mercury will turn direct before the holidays. Family gatherings and holiday travel should go much better than years past.

People may be rather pushy as December begins with Venus and Pluto going insane, and the Sun and Mars battling. Then, as their energy begins to slow down, Mercury, Venus, and Mars will begin another drama for the weekend of December 3rd. Don't force any issues, and postpone any major decisions until the Moon enters Taurus on Tuesday morning, December 6th.

We may start feeling the eclipse energy on December 6th (even earlier for Cardinal signs). We have a full moon total lunar eclipse on Saturday, December 10th, and Uranus, the shocking planet, will also be turning direct (at direct station) on the same day. Lunar eclipses are considered to be about 10 times more powerful than a typical full moon, and total eclipses are stronger than partial or penumbral eclipses. Eclipses bring changes, and Uranus is the ruler of sudden unexpected changes. And, to top it off, the eclipse will be in the changeable sign of Gemini. Use caution driving this week, because there will be accidents. Some drivers may suddenly change directions, and some people may suddenly change their minds. Try to stay flexible, and by all means go with the flow. Any resistance to change could be met with the universe crashing down.

We will probably breathe a sigh of relief on Sunday morning, December 11th, after the Moon goes void of course and enters Cancer a few hours later. The only non-lunar planetary activity we have going on for the week of December 11th is Mercury turning direct (at direct station) on Tuesday, December 13th. We should find that Mercury's direct station will not bring too many upsets. There may be a few travel delays or computer problems, but nothing major (like the stock market taking a dip). In fact the rest of the week should be rather uneventful.

There could be some money problems or relationship issues for the weekend of December 17th, because Venus will be arguing with Saturn. But, things should begin to improve on Monday, December 19th. The Sun, Saturn, Neptune, and Jupiter will be joining hands to bring holiday cheer, compassion, and generosity from December 19th through the Winter Solstice, on December 22nd. Some could be overly sensitive on December 20th with Venus arguing with Jupiter, and others could be making mistakes on December 22nd with the Sun squaring off with Uranus. But, all in all the week before Christmas should be very productive.

Our final retrograde planet, Jupiter, will turn direct on Christmas Day, December 25th. Sagittarians will be feeling a new sense of worth and direction, and most of us will notice a renewed sense of optimism entering our life. We may even feel a strong need for independence on Wednesday and Thursday, December 28th and 29th, as Pluto moves behind the Sun. People could be touchy on New Year's Eve with Mercury and Mars going to war that night. Watch out for arguments.

Things will be business as usual as January 2012 begins, but our energy (and our sex drives) may slow down with Mars turning retrograde on the Chinese New Year (dragon), January 23rd. Check back next month to find out more.
