Full Moon in Gemini, 13 December: your 8th house
The Full Moon is exact at 16:09 UTC on Monday 13 December, with the Moon at 21°24′ Gemini and the Sun opposite in Sagittarius. For Scorpio the Moon lights your 8th house, the house of shared money, intimacy and deep change, while the Sun stands across in your 2nd.
Astrologers treat the Full Moon as the month’s high tide; in December the tide rises in your 8th house, the place the tradition calls the Idle Place, and it shows a grief or a fear that has been waiting for its turn to be felt. In your 8th house this December, Gemini, mutable air ruled by Mercury, gives it a quick and curious manner, full of questions. Read as an axis, from your 8th house to your 2nd, this December Full Moon runs along the axis of what is yours and what is shared: earnings and debts, possessions and trust.
A practice for the December Full Moon: review an insurance policy, a will or a tax matter you have left alone.

Monday 27 December brings the New Moon at 5°50′ Capricorn, exact at 20:12 UTC, and for Scorpio it falls in the 3rd house, the house of words, siblings and short journeys.
Astrology reads the New Moon as the time to start small and mean it, and in December the small start belongs to your 3rd house, the Goddess: a beginning in learning, the kind that starts with one honest question. For Scorpio this December, Capricorn lends it structure, endurance and dry humor.
If you want something to do with this December lunation, call the sibling, cousin or neighbor you keep meaning to call.
Planets changing sign or direction in December
Neptune turns direct in Aries, your 6th 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 Scorpio’s health routines and service through December.
On 18 December Mercury moves into Capricorn, which is your 3rd house. Until 6 January 2028, Mercury in your 3rd house is at home in the house of words: messages multiply, errands pile up and learning comes easily.
Venus crosses into Aquarius on 19 December and so into your 4th house. Until 13 January 2028, with Venus at the root of your chart, the tradition reads a warm spell for domestic pleasure, hospitality and peace at home.
On 22 December at 02:42 UTC the Sun crosses into Capricorn, which for Scorpio is the 3rd house. Until 20 January 2028, the Sun in your 3rd house makes a month for conversations, errands, siblings and short journeys.
Saturn turns direct in Aries, in your 6th 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 6th house its renewed motion touches daily work, routines and habits, and health routines.
Love, work and money for Scorpio in December
Venus begins December in Capricorn, your 3rd house, and enters Aquarius, your 4th, on 19 December, turning affection toward living together, family plans and the private life a couple shares.
Mars stays in Capricorn all month, your 3rd house, putting the month’s effort into emails, contracts, writing and the everyday traffic of a working week.
For money, the Full Moon on 13 December falls in your 8th: the house of what is shared and owed. Read December as a time for looking at debts, loans, taxes, insurance and inheritance, other people’s money in your life, without expecting the sky to settle the sums for you.
