Weekly Horoscope: December 11–17, 2023

It’s time to break out of your comfort zone and do one last daring thing before the year is over! As a new moon (representing our emotional needs) in adventurous Sagittarius arrives on Tuesday, the universe is begging you to make exciting discoveries about yourself and the world, go to exotic places, meet interesting people who share different views, and just generally get out of a rut and do some kick-ass things!

Tuesday also sees Mercury (the cosmic communicator) in solid Capricorn go retrograde for the second time this year. This is a sign to look back to the first time this earthy partnership happened in early 2023 to see if any patterns are repeating. There are, of course, the same types of Mercury retrograde headaches — like delays and miscommunications — to deal with, but being able to tap into some lessons you should have learned earlier in the year can help things go a little more smoothly now.

Saturday brings a square between the sun (the celestial body repping self-awareness) in fiery Sagittarius and Neptune (the universal dreamer) in sensitive Pisces, which can result in confusion or in worse cases, a tad of paranoia. When you hear a nasty rumor or read some vicious gossip about yourself or someone you care about, just remember that you don’t have the full story. You’ll probably feel much better after you get all the details.

Taurus

You usually have a lot to deal with financially, but this week’s new moon puts extra emphasis on your money zone. New, significant financial obligations might crop up soon, so this isn’t a good time to make big purchases. Focus on your own bank account instead of giving other people advice about theirs, Taurus.

You love to solve problems yourself, but this week, it’s time to leave the tough stuff to the experts!

Your career or other major responsibility needs your attention this week, Pisces. Hence, it’s important to find a way to block out all other distractions, including your tendency to escape real life by daydreaming and fantasizing.

The good thing is that whatever effort you put in now will be heavily rewarded in the future, but for now, patience is required.
