As we enter the second week of December, there’s a lesson each zodiac sign can learn. Starting December 9, the Moon in Aries greets us with fire and passion to dive into things we feel inspired by. We will then see things shift with the Venusian energy of the Taurus Moon, adding more stability and encouraging energy to the week as it serves as a prelude to the Full Moon in Gemini on December 15, 2024.
Luna, in this Mercurial sign, will make a square to Neptune on December 15, 2024, the same day Mercury stations direct. Neptune will add complexity and depth to this transit, allowing us to question our boundaries. The Full Moon will not only have us questioning the world around us, but it will force us to build something stronger for ourselves while Jupiter is also in this sign.
The life lesson each zodiac sign will learn the week of December 9 – 15, 2024:
Aries

Acquiring the inspiration you need during this time can feel quite demanding as you continue to learn how to balance your available time.
The Full Moon in Gemini helps you to restructure your mindset, and with Mercury making a trine to your sign, this can be a moment when being more optimistic works in your favor.
Go with the flow and take your time. Mercury is also direct, enabling you to consider changing projects, making edits, and going in a new direction.
Taurus

While love can be on your mind this week, there can be an energy of nostalgia linked to the Full Moon in Gemini. With the square to Neptune, you will be more cognizant of past relationships and how they have evolved who you are.
Luna also influences how your social connections have grown and expanded during this period. Friends have emboldened you and helped you keep your dreams in action.
Gemini

A dynamic and potent transit with the Full Moon in your sign reminds you that this is your moment to move on and close those chapters because you are entering a new phase that will be more prominent in 2025 once the Nodes move into new territory.

A period to dive and explore your emotions as Luna in Gemini illuminates one of the darker parts of your chart, reminding you of what you let go and how you can learn from those experiences.
With Mars in Leo sparking more courage and enabling you to be a tactician for the next several weeks, developing your inner power can result from this transit as you continue to acquire the wisdom and knowledge that can help you get to where you want.
Sagittarius

Since the energy this week can feel potent with the Full Moon in Gemini in your relationship house creating friction with Neptune’s square, you may feel some insecurity protecting your boundaries.

Pisces

The Mercurial Full Moon in Gemini is a challenging transit, with it making a square to your sign. But there are valuable lessons here that you are already incorporating through the Saturn transit in your sign.
Creating a balance between work and home brings you a lot of good opportunities to climb the social ladder if needed. Those around you also support you. Mercury is now direct, enabling us all to communicate more effectively. Getting closer to the people you cherish is easier at this time.
