December 2024 Monthly Horoscopes For All Zodiac Signs
Antipova Ekaterina, Vlada Karpovich | Canva Pro Each zodiac sign's monthly horoscope for December 2024 is here, and we begin the month with Mercury and Mars retrograde until December 15th, when Mercury turns direct again in Sagittarius.
Mercury and Mars are the main players of the month
Mercury rules speech, communication, and thinking, as well as travel. Equipment breaks down, things are delayed, and you may find out information that was previously unknown but needed to proceed forward.
Mars will retrograde for two months
Mars turns retrograde on December 5 at 6 degrees of Leo and doesn’t turn direct again until February 24, 2025. Mars rules our actions, which may be thwarted during its retrograde. Since Mars can rule both, people get tired and angrier and are more prone to sickness and accidents.
This is also a time when rash actions can come into play and should be avoided. Since Leo rules the 5th house of romance and fun, this may be delayed, or we could suffer a lack in this area. The stationary retrograde and direct periods are the most challenging times with Mercury or Mars retrograde.
Mercury’s direct station is December 15 - 18, and Mars's retrograde station is from December 6-12.
Both planets are powerful now, and situations you thought were settled can change again. From December 14 on, Saturn clashes with Jupiter.
This time period can be financially restrictive and indicate a period of tension and conflict, as well as re-evaluating our circumstances or pulling long-term projects together with a lot of effort.
