Full Moon in Gemini, 13 December: your 6th house
On Monday 13 December the Moon comes full at 21°24′ Gemini, at 16:09 UTC, facing the Sun in Sagittarius; for Capricorn it fills the 6th house, the house of daily work, habits and health routines, from across the 12th.
Astrology reads a Full Moon as an axis rather than a point, and the December axis runs through your 6th house, Bad Fortune, showing whether your daily routine is serving you or slowly wearing you down. For Capricorn this December, Gemini, mutable air ruled by Mercury, gives it a quick and curious manner, full of questions. Read as an axis, from your 6th house to your 12th, this December Full Moon runs along the axis of work and rest: the duties of the day and the retreat that restores you.
One way for Capricorn to meet it in December: book the check-up or the appointment you have been putting off.
Beyond the Sun sign
Your Sun sign is only part of 2027
A Capricorn forecast reads the year by your Sun sign alone. The Road of Ages reads the turning points of your whole life from your own birth date, and shows where you stand on it now.
See the year on your own RoadNew Moon in Capricorn, 27 December: your 1st house
The New Moon is exact at 20:12 UTC on Monday 27 December, at 5°50′ Capricorn, in Capricorn itself: counted by whole signs, your own sign is the 1st house, the house of the self and the body.
A New Moon is read as an opening rather than an event, so the December lunation is less a happening than an invitation in your 1st house, the Hour-marker: a beginning that is about you rather than about anyone else, the kind of resolve that needs no permission. Set in your 1st house, the December lunation takes its tone from its sign: Capricorn, cardinal earth ruled by Saturn, gives it a sober and ambitious manner, built for the long climb.
A practice for the December New Moon: write one sentence about who you are this year that does not mention your job or anyone else.
Planets changing sign or direction in December
Neptune turns direct in Aries, your 4th house, a slow turn spread over several days. The turn comes around 15 December, at 3°51′ Aries, and since a slow planet’s turn is felt over weeks rather than on a day, the tradition would look for it in Capricorn’s parents and private life through December.
Mercury crosses into Capricorn on 18 December and so into your 1st house. Until 6 January 2028, Mercury in your 1st house quickens the mind and the tongue: a good stretch for speaking up for yourself and for plans that are yours alone.
Venus crosses into Aquarius on 19 December and so into your 2nd house. Until 13 January 2028, with Venus in your house of possessions, the tradition reads a pleasant spell for earning, buying beautiful things and valuing yourself.
On 22 December at 02:42 UTC the Sun crosses into Capricorn, which for Capricorn is the 1st house. Until 20 January 2028, the Sun in your 1st house is your own season: the old books give it to vitality, and modern astrologers to the birthday month, when attention comes back to you.
Saturn turns direct in Aries, in your 4th house: the review that began on 9 August is over, and the building can resume. The turn comes on 24 December, at 21°01′ Aries, and in your 4th house its renewed motion touches home, family and roots, and parents.
Love, work and money for Capricorn in December
Venus begins December in Capricorn, your 1st house, and enters Aquarius, your 2nd, on 19 December, turning affection toward what you give and receive in love, and whether affection is being bought or freely offered.
Mars stays in Capricorn all month, your 1st house, putting the month’s effort into your personal initiative and the reputation you carry into any room. The Full Moon on 13 December lands in your 6th, a house the tradition gives to work and health.
For money, Venus arrives in your 2nd on 19 December: the house of what you earn and own. Read December as a time for looking at income, savings, spending and possessions, most directly of all the houses, without expecting the sky to settle the sums for you.
