While Pluto’s first full month back in your work sector could bring this year to a busy end, back now until 2044 the planet of change and transformation is not only playing a long game but is back to working in tandem with Jupiter, who will remain in retrograde motion in your career sector for the rest of the year. With Jupiter’s quest for professional growth and expansion not ending until June 2025, he is playing a long game as well and in the early days of the month anyway, with a chance to get your bearings. The pace could start to pick up when the Moon not only returns for its last visit to your work sector for the year from 5th December to 7th December but when just before it is due to leave Venus and the dwarf planet Ceres will return. Unlike Jupiter and Pluto, leaving in the New Year Venus is not playing a long game and will be working to capitalise on an association with both to get the most out of the final weeks of this professional year. Until returning to your work sector on 7th December, Venus and Ceres will not only be working to make the most of their final days in a fun, playful, romantic and creatively charged part of your chart but will be working to capture and cement Pluto’s influence here over the last 16 years. Knowing that it won’t be until two weeks later that the Sun will return on 21st December, they will also be working to put in some guardrails in place when comes to a balance between work and play. Meanwhile, as is always the case, the Sun will be spending the first three weeks of December in your home and family sector, with the solar spotlight always on home, family and/or property matters at this time of year. With Mars not only in a nostalgic and reflective part of your chart, something that has brought you to the final stage in this current two year Mars cycle but turning retrograde on 7th December, his close association with the Sun and Mercury, who will be in retrograde motion in your home and family sector until 16th December, will make home your sanctuary and a place to recharge your batteries.
While you begin the month with Venus and the dwarf planet Ceres in your romantic sector and this is maintaining the ongoing planetary activity on the romantic front, there is change in the air. When he left your romantic sector last month, apart from the less than three months when he was gone early last year, he had been here since 2008 and thanks to the dwarf planet Ceres’ return in February to begin her first deep dive into your heart’s needs and priorities, even though he left for over seven months this year she kept the momentum going. Venus had already returned before Pluto left and until they both leave on 7th December, they are bringing your romantic wants, needs and priorities into closer alignment. Helping with that and also to get the month off to a romantically charged start will be the Moon’s return to your romantic sector from 3rd November to 5th November. That last visit will also be the Moon’s first visit of 2025, with the Moon returning from 30th December to 1st January to see in the New Year here. Because the Sun will always spend the last 10 days and the first three weeks of every year in your romantic sector, his return on 21st December means you will also begin this year and start the next with the solar spotlight on matters of the heart. Whenever the Sun and Moon get together there will always be a New Moon, this time right on New Year’s Eve. Meanwhile, the Moon will make its last visit to your relationship sector for the year from 7th December to 10th December, returning moments after Venus and Ceres leave your romantic sector. Returning to find now planetary activity in your romantic sector, this will be a chance to give your relationships your full attention and the timing couldn’t be better. This will be the Moon’s first visit since Saturn turned direct here last month but it is while the Moon is here and while you are emotionally engaged and aware that Neptune, the planet of hopes and dreams will turn direct on 8th December. With Venus, the planet of love returning in the New Year, this is the point where the focus shifts from the past to the future.
While both sides of the financial fence are active this month, it is in a low key and stable way while at the same time, with the lunar nodes in their last full month in your two money houses, there is a lot of focus on balance. Until leaving your financial sector next month the North Node will continue to provide a sense of financial direction, even though both planets here are still in retrograde motion. These aren’t your major players, but as the planet of healing the asteroid Chiron is helping you learn from the past while the dwarf planet Eris, the warrior princess of the cosmos is always ready to help you fight for what you want. It is the support that is coming from planets across the solar system, including the Sun, that is going to keep your financial confidence high. There will be a chance to check in on your financial situation and money matters when the Moon makes its last visit to your financial sector for the year from 10th December to 12th December. Meanwhile, while there is no planetary activity on the income side of the financial fence, in its last full month in your income sector the South Node is working to keep things balanced. With Pluto in his first full month back in your work sector and Jupiter still in your career sector, there is plenty of support for income potential. This will be on display when the Moon returns for its last visit to your income sector for the year from 23rd December to 25th December. This is something that every four weeks can sharpen your nose for money and act as a trigger and especially as a friendly aspect to Jupiter and Pluto as it moves through will create a lot of positive energy across the income, work and career fronts. This will also be the Moon’s only visit while Venus, the planet of money is in your work sector and is something that will give her mission to fuel your job confidence, attract opportunities and steer things in a lucrative direction a boost.
