After a period of focussing on others, you are now free to seriously consider your own life direction. Something or someone is likely to inspire you. If you are able to escape via travel then this is the ideal month for a sojourn into a foreign land. However, if you are confined to quarters so to speak then you can seek your inspiration through foreign cultures, artistic pursuits, communing in nature or immersing yourself in stories or studies that lift your spirits. At the same time this month also sees you seriously consider one of more aspects of your life. There is a deeper issue underlying some of your thoughts and actions this month.

Sometimes the stars align in such a way as to repeat a message until we listen. Once again the stars are aligned to highlight your primary relationship. If you are single then once again now is the time to either enjoy your single status or focus on finding a mate. If you are already in a committed relationship then your partner is likely to require some love and attention. Perhaps something big is happening in your partner’s life and you are required to offer support or maybe you are simply enjoying your mate’s company. Either way this is the month to focus on the serious issues of commitment, loyalty, support and longevity. What qualities do you need, and what qualities does your partner need to possess, in order to enjoy a loving union? This is not a light-hearted romantic period but rather a need for you to ensure that you truly can bond with your partner in such a way that acknowledges their needs and your own. Problems that arise now should not be pushed under the carpet but addressed as serious challenges.

Sometimes the stars align in such a way as to repeat a message until we listen. Like last month you need to continue looking after your health so that you can achieve all that you need to. Hopefully last month you took some time out for relaxation or a health retreat because this month is busy indeed. Even if you plan a break this month your thoughts are likely to be occupied with projects and plans that are currently on the go. It is time to work, attend to details, and pay attention to daily chores. Cleaning, clearing, tidying, shopping, regular health checkups, job applications, pet care and car maintenance are just a few of the chores that may need your attention. If you find that it is all getting a little too much make lists or you may call on some help from your partner, business or personal. They are likely to be in need of your support this month. Nevertheless you can ask for a little help.

Do you have children? If not are you responsible for other people’s children? If not then what would you consider your “children” equivalent? The impetus for these questions is the fact that the stars are aligned in such a way as to call on you to pay serious attention to anything that you have given birth to or are planning to give birth to. Society usually associates “birth” with the physical act of giving birth, but birth can refer to many things. This month you are required to take a little extra time and care for your children, or for a creative project that is close to your heart. If you read this and have no idea what this could be then this is your month to contemplate what would give you joy and what would you like to give birth to? In some cases this could be a romance as relationships are also highlighted during December. Some time out at the end of the month could help you consolidate some of your insights.

Leos do love to have fun. In fact no fun equals a very gloomy lion. Luckily December is a wonderful time for you to let loose and indulge your enthusiasm for all things playful. Fun can mean different things to different people. For instance one person may thoroughly enjoy a picnic in the outdoors while another Leo might like the luxury of fine-dining. You are likely to be quite clear about what is fun for you – retail therapy, artistic pursuits, the great outdoors, sports arenas, rock concerts and/or entering into the full spirit of a religious festival such as Christmas. You may even enjoy dressing up as Santa and having some fun with your own or other people’s children. As a Leo you bring joy into the hearts of others. Your enthusiasm and playfulness is infectious. So let yourself go and spread a little sparkle this month.

Something is on your mind this December. It could be that you are considering a serious decision that is life changing, or simply that you have some paperwork that needs to be attended to. Your best approach is to take some time out to attend to matters of the mind before they turn into worries. Mindfulness is needed. Writing, communicating, paying bills, catching up with siblings or neighbours, finishing off a project or organising your work space are all on the cards this month. This is also an excellent time to make plans for short journeys. You may enjoy reading. A trip to the stationery store could be fun, as could be purchasing a new computer or car, if you have adequate funds. If not then a car service, or a clean-up and back-up of computer folders could provide much satisfaction. This may seem boring to others but to a Virgo can be good fun.

Sometimes the stars align in such a way as to repeat a message until we listen. Once again your astrology is influencing your personal income sector. This means that you are still required to focus on your earning capacity, your spending habits and your personal budget. You have some decisions to make when it comes to money. It is not only your material riches that need to be considered but also innate resources that can be developed and valued. These are the resources of your personality such as your unique strengths, skills and talents which can be exchanged for income or other rewards. Talking to acquaintances, counsellors, or siblings may help. It is also time to think about your household arrangements and see if these can be changed in such a way as to alleviate or boost your finances.

December is another powerful month for you. The planets are aligned in your Zodiac Sign sparking some serious personal changes. It seems that you have a date with destiny, something that has been written in the stars for some time. You need to slow down and learn to listen to the signs. Often society demands are so great that the buzz of the traffic, media, social media, responsibilities and endless line of chores override everything else. This month you need to look beyond the superficial and learn to see the symbolism. What signs are jumping out at you? Can you recall your dreams? Are friends and loved ones telling you the same thing? Look for the correlations. Put your personal desires to one side and let the static fade away and really hone in on purpose and meaning. This way you will discover your true north.

This month you are like a duck. “What”!! you ask “A boring little duck?” Of course you are an elegant and dynamic Centaur by nature, but this month all is not as it seems. On the surface you are swimming calmly across the waters like a duck, hardly making a ripple. BUT all is not as it seems. Underneath your feet are churning through the water. This month you are reflecting on your life and wondering what changes need to be made. Others may not realise the serious nature of your considerations. All they see is your usual loving, bouncy exuberance, but you know better. In plain speak “you are up to something!” However, this month, like the duck, you are likely to appear to be continuing to paddle calmly through the waters. Money matters may be behind your considerations.

The planets Venus and Pluto are in your Zodiac Sign this month indicating that love and/or money are concerning you. The time has come for you to take a long hard look at how you earn, spend and share your money. On the whole this is a lucky month for you, one in which you can spread your wings and fly a little, reap the rewards from previous hard work. Money and love may also be connected with friends and alliances. You are likely to be reassessing your associates. Your role in groups may be evolving with you taking a more responsible or active role. Are your friends and associates supporting your hopes, dreams and wishes or are they holding you back? A little retreat or some work behind the scenes may be beneficial. Bide your time.

Once again the planets are indicating that you need to continue to focus on your professional and public life. Are you living up to your responsibilities? If so then this could be a highly successful month during which you shoulder your responsibilities and reap the rewards. Your marriage, career and any office bearing positions can be most fruitful. However, if you have been shirking your duties then you could be in for a time of reckoning. It is time to get serious and make some decisions. You may have a date with destiny when it comes to your life purpose. Some undercurrents threaten your sense of security so stay focused on things that give your life meaning.

Once again December sees you continue to broaden your horizons. This could be through working with or meeting up with people from a different culture or background. It could be that you plan an overseas trip or have the opportunity to study something that broadens your mind. On the other hand if none of these opportunities present themselves then you may benefit from immersing yourself in a series of films, books or television programs that are inspirational. If you have talents then this is the month to express them and look for an audience. Ask yourself the following questions: “What do I find inspirational?” “What lifts my spirits?” and “How can I inspire others?”
