Mars goes retrograde in your 12th House, encouraging you to tap into the soft side of spirituality. Venus moves into your wellness-oriented sixth House, further encouraging self-care, a theme also reiterated when Ceres joins Venus. Messenger Mercury, your ruling planet, ends its retrograde and goes direct during a Gemini full moon. Capricorn season arrives along with Yule and the winter solstice. In addition to any family travel, it's a good idea to carve out time for friends, especially when Chiron, an asteroid known as “the wounded healer,” ends its retrograde and goes direct in your transformative eighth House. The month ends with a Capricorn new moon in your pleasurable fifth House.
