This week marks a decisive, energetic shift as we move out of Sagittarius season and into Capricorn season. The focus turns from vision and belief into embodiment, responsibility, and long-term construction. After weeks of emotional processing, shadow work, and cosmic noise, the astrology now asks one straightforward question: what are you ready to commit to for the new year ahead?
The energy this week is quieter but more serious. I just wanted to let you know that this is not about rushing forward. It is about stabilizing, grounding, and preparing for the work to be built in 2026. Capricorn season reminds us that magic requires discipline, and manifestation requires structure.
Don't forget my Black Moon Lilith in Sagittarius free live workshop is happening tomorrow, Dec. 22, from 6 – 8 pm EDT! Please RSVP for free to receive email updates and the livestream link.
Weekly Astrology Forecast
December 21, 2025 – Sun Enters Capricorn and the Winter Solstice
On December 21, the Sun enters Capricorn, marking the Winter Solstice and the longest night of the year. This is one of the most sacred turning points in the solar calendar. The Solstice represents death and rebirth, stillness before growth, and the quiet return of the light.
Capricorn season shifts our attention toward career, legacy, boundaries, time, and responsibility. This is the season of maturity and accountability. What you choose to build now sets the tone for the entire year ahead. The Solstice asks you to slow down, reflect on the past year, and consciously choose what you are ready to carry forward.
Energetically, this is a potent moment for intention setting, ritual, and grounding practices. Rest is productive right now. Clarity comes through stillness, not force.
December 24, 2025 – Venus Enters Capricorn
On December 24, Venus enters Capricorn, bringing seriousness and intention into love, money, and values. Venus in Capricorn is not interested in fantasy or fleeting attraction. This transit asks what is sustainable, what is worth investing in, and what can stand the test of time.
In relationships, this energy favors commitment, boundaries, and mature conversations about the future. Some connections may deepen through shared goals, while others may reveal where effort has been one-sided. Financially, this is a strong placement for budgeting, long-term planning, and practical decision-making.
Venus in Capricorn reminds us that love is shown through consistency, respect, and reliability. Pleasure becomes purposeful, and desire becomes aligned with long-term security.
Oracle Card of the Week
This week, I intuitively chose The Realest Oracle by Kendra Austin. I love this deck for a Saturnian season like Capricorn and the Winter Solstice, as it brings messages in a grounded and realistic way. Saturn is the planetary ruler of Capricorn, and is all about reality and sorting through the mundane, and the hard work necessary to create and receive the gold in life. You can shop Kendra's deck and support independent retailers at Bookshop.org!
This week's card is Fill Your Cup. This oracle card is associated with the air and water elements, and indicates that some of you may have gone on a vacation this past week or took time to be in the ocean, rivers, or streams. This card is also bringing deep cellular healing this week, and you may feel more optimistic about the new year ahead. You have learned to appreciate the challenging yet enlightening journey of 2025 and realize it was necessary for your personal growth. As we head into the Winter Solstice, you are taking time out for yourself and filling your own cup with joy, creativity, and inspiration. You may have to place boundaries around your time with family and loved ones. No is a complete sentence.

Sun in Capricorn
December 21, 2025, to January 20, 2026
The Sun enters Capricorn on December 21, marking the Winter Solstice and a significant seasonal turning point. In ancient pagan traditions such as Yule and Saturnalia, this is the darkest day of the year in the Northern Hemisphere and the rebirth of light. Capricorn season shifts the collective focus toward responsibility, structure, ambition, and long-term planning. After weeks of mutable energy, this transit grounds us. What you commit to now carries weight and longevity. This is the time to build with intention rather than rush for instant results.
Mercury in Sagittarius
December 11, 2025, to January 2, 2026
Mercury continues its journey through Sagittarius, encouraging big-picture thinking, honesty, and philosophical reflection. Communication can become bold and expansive, but details can still be overlooked and others can be triggered by blunt force. Mercury is also finally direct and out of its post-retrograde shadow as of the 17th.
Venus in Capricorn
December 24, 2025, to January 18, 2026
Venus enters Capricorn on December 24, shifting love, money, and values into a more serious and committed tone. Relationships focus on stability, loyalty, and long-term potential. Superficial connections fall away, while bonds built on trust and shared goals strengthen. Financial decisions benefit from practicality and patience. This is a powerful transit for investing in what will last rather than chasing temporary pleasure.
Mars in Capricorn
December 15, 2025, to January 23, 2026
Mars is exalted in Capricorn and operating at full strength. This is one of the most productive and disciplined Mars transits of the year. Motivation increases, but it is focused and strategic rather than impulsive. This energy supports consistent effort, leadership, and the ability to turn ambition into real-world results. If you are ready to work, Mars in Capricorn will meet you halfway.
Black Moon Lilith in Sagittarius (mean)
December 20, 2025, to September 14, 2026
Black Moon Lilith has officially entered Sagittarius, beginning a nine-month cycle of truth-telling, liberation, and ideological rebellion. This transit challenges belief systems that restrict freedom, especially around religion, culture, education, and personal truth. Lilith in Sagittarius demands authenticity and the courage to live according to your own moral compass, even when it disrupts the status quo.
Jupiter Retrograde in Cancer
November 11, 2025, to March 10, 2026
Jupiter continues its retrograde journey in Cancer, drawing attention inward toward emotional security, family patterns, and ancestral healing. Growth now comes from tending to your inner foundation rather than external expansion. This reflective period asks you to redefine what abundance and safety truly mean to you.
Saturn in Pisces
November 27, 2025, to February 13, 2026
Saturn remains direct in Pisces and is slowly regaining momentum. This is a period of spiritual accountability and emotional maturity. Dreams must be grounded. Boundaries are required in intuitive and creative spaces. Saturn asks you to commit to your spiritual practices and emotional health with consistency rather than escapism.
North Node in Pisces and South Node in Virgo (mean)
January 12, 2025, to August 18, 2026
The nodal axis continues to pull the collective toward faith, surrender, creativity, and intuition. Old habits of perfectionism, control, and over-analysis are being released. Trusting the unseen path is essential during this cycle.
Uranus Retrograde in Taurus
November 7, 2025, to February 3, 2026
Uranus remains retrograde in Taurus, continuing to disrupt outdated systems around money, resources, values, and sustainability. Change is still unfolding beneath the surface. The goal is long-term stability built on innovation rather than clinging to what feels familiar.
Neptune Direct in Pisces
December 10, 2025, to January 26, 2026
Neptune is now direct in the final degrees of Pisces, intensifying intuition, dreams, and spiritual sensitivity. Illusions can resurface, but so can profound creativity and compassion. Discernment is key as the veil remains thin during this closing chapter of Neptune in Pisces.
Pluto in Aquarius
October 13, 2025, to May 6, 2026
Pluto continues its transformative work in Aquarius, reshaping collective power structures, technology, and social systems. This is a slow but irreversible process of cultural evolution, emphasizing community and future-focused reform.
