You may be feeling a variety of emotions as the year draws to a close. Whether you are preparing for final exams or making a list of gifts to get your loved ones, this time of the year is full of excitement, stress and everything in between. Here is your weekly horoscope to navigate through the first week of December.
Aries
March 21 – April 19
Lately, you have been feeling like everything is falling into place. You have worked so hard to get to where you are, and now that you are at the top, take this time to relax. Lean into your closest relationships for fulfillment, and do not feel guilty about taking a step back from your professional life. You have earned a break.
Taurus
April 20 – May 20
You will have bountiful energy this week – use this to your advantage! Push boundaries, take opportunities, say “yes” to everything, do it all. It is rare that you let yourself stray from your usual strict schedule, but this week, follow your urges to spice it up and be spontaneous.
Gemini
May 21 – June 20
You will face an obstacle this week. Usually, you turn to your adaptability to navigate challenges such as these, but this week, take a step back and evaluate the situation. Maybe you need a break, or maybe you need to change something in your life. The obstacles you are running into are not healthy or sustainable.
Cancer
June 21 – July 22
This week, the potential for chaos is in the air. To successfully navigate your way through these, focus your energy on your innermost environment. You are at your best when you feel mentally and emotionally grounded. Do whatever you need to do to feel most at peace as the world around you feels chaotic, whether it’s spending time with your friends or reading a book.
Leo
July 23 – Aug. 22
You have an unquenchable desire to achieve. Sometimes, your ambitions overpower your desire to complete other obligations or tasks. You should refocus on your priorities as they appear in relation to times of need. It can be easy to neglect these, but in the end, these can be just as important.
Virgo
Aug. 23 – Sept. 22
One thing about you is that you are a problem solver. Whether or not it is your mess to clean up, you want to fix everything. But, it is important to remember that overexerting yourself can lead to burnout, especially this week. Focus on the core values you want to put out into the world and move your attention away from distractions.
Libra
Sept. 23 – Oct. 22
Recently, you have discovered something that has reopened the wounds from your past hurt. You need to take time to heal from your past. You are one to move your feelings to the side when they become too difficult to deal with – remember to take time for yourself and take care of your mental wellbeing. Personal growth is often uncomfortable.
Scorpio
Oct. 23 – Nov. 21
You need to start thinking of your future when you make everyday decisions. You find it overwhelming to think far into the future, especially when your life may be changing drastically in the next few months. It is time to start making decisions that your future self would appreciate – everyday choices can and will have consequences if you are not careful.
Sagittarius
Nov. 22 – Dec. 21
You are a level-headed person, and your ability to handle stressful situations is something you are proud of. But, when an unforeseen obstacle comes your way and catches you by surprise, you blame yourself for not expecting it. Don’t let your emotions make these obstacles any harder; be confident in yourself as you move through the next week.
Capricorn
Dec. 22 – Jan. 19
You need to reassess the priorities in your daily life. Right now, you are not achieving a sustainable, healthy balance in your daily routine. You have noticed this, but swept it under the rug, saying that you will deal with it when the timing is better. The timing will never be perfect. Take control of your life and prioritize your wellbeing – this will make all the difference in every aspect of your life.
Aquarius
Jan. 20 – Feb. 18
The stars are aligning themselves this week for you to make a change in your life. Whether a new truth will reveal itself or a new opportunity presents itself to you, take these as signs to embrace change and explore new horizons. It is up to you to forge these new paths.
Pisces
Feb. 19 – March 20
This time of the year always seems to highlight the areas in your life that need improvement. You have always had trouble with things such as setting boundaries, learning from your past mistakes or communicating effectively. Try to remove yourself from the situation and take the emotion out of it to evaluate how you can grow. Don’t convince yourself that you are a bad person just because you are human – work to be better next time.
