It’s Christmas Eve, and your daily horoscope is both festive and fragile, like a sparkly ornament made of glass. Bold Jupiter is in a challenging angle to stoic Saturn, setting up a push-pull dynamic between our positivity and our need to set limits. This is the planet of optimism in a pitched battle with the planet of reality-checks. Loneliness is a big issue for many people during the holiday season, and this astrology asks us to look closely at our relationship with solitude. You might have big plans to gather with family, friends, or chosen fam and get temporarily thwarted from arriving or greeting guests. It could be bad weather, traffic, or a late/canceled flight. Find something to look forward to, even if what you planned to do doesn’t work out exactly as you hoped it would.
Aries
March 21–April 19
With jovial Jupiter activating your communication zone, you’ve had a lot to say since last May. But as that badass planet conflicts with serious Saturn in your dream zone, you may have a powerful reckoning about the deeper meanings of the words you choose, Aries. This may call for gathering in, examining your true feelings, and figuring out how to articulate them not just with a zinger but with compassion and clarity.
Taurus
April 20–May 20
The powerful clash between Jupiter and Saturn rocks your financial zone and your networking sector today. You’re figuring out the value of your friendships, Taurus. Not in dollars, of course, but in how they enrich you and make you a better, happier person. Material wealth is one thing, but deep relationships make you richer than ever.
Gemini
May 21–June 20
You’re at the heart of today’s battle between bombastic Jupiter, currently in your sign, and somber Saturn in your career zone. This could feel like a serious reevaluation of your purpose in the world, Gemini. What did you come to earth to do, anyway? It may be that the job you have right now doesn’t feel like enough to fulfill your bigger goals. Take some time to meditate on it.
Cancer
June 21–July 22
Something is whispering from deep in your psyche today, Cancer, and you should try to listen closely to it. With auspicious Jupiter in your dream zone bumping up against Saturn in your adventure sector, you may long to break free from restrictions. If you’ve sensed that forces beyond your control were holding you back from exploration, it may just turn out that you put these constraints onto yourself.
Leo
July 23–August 22
A powerful transformation in your intimate relationships has been brewing for a while, Leo. Expansive Jupiter is pushing you to explore new friendships, groups, and cultures, while Saturn has been drawing you into yourself, so you’ve probably required more time alone to process and contemplate your feelings. Today, these two contrasting planetary forces clash, and the question to ask yourself is: What do I really desire?
Virgo
August 23–September 22
While some focus on opening gifts and clinking glasses, you may concentrate on career and relationship issues. With brash Jupiter in your professional zone pushing up against Saturn in your partnership sector, there are some potentially heavy themes in the air, Virgo. However, don’t let this ruin your good time—you certainly don’t have to figure out your whole life today.
Libra
September 23–October 22
The moon remains in your stars, Libra, softening the heavier vibes created by Jupiter’s clash with Saturn. Your travel and daily activity zones are on edge at the moment, so you might still be thinking about deadlines and stress from the office when you should be on the road or prepping for holiday guests. Try to let it go and remember that you can’t control everything; live in the moment that exists right now.
Scorpio
October 23–November 21
The deepest kinds of emotional intimacy are simultaneously a little bit scary and totally invigorating for you right now, Scorpio. Jupiter is in your sexuality zone, while Saturn is in your house of love and pleasure. There could be a sense of holding back even when all you desire is to share your most naked emotional self with a lover or partner. Being authentic is the way to feel truly alive at this crucial moment.
Sagittarius
November 22–December 21
Your planetary ruler Jupiter is making major headlines today, Sagittarius, and you need to read them carefully. With your relationship zone and your domestic sector in the crosshairs of this potent astrological moment, there’s something you need to pay attention to around partnership, one-to-one alliances, and your ancestral roots. Explore the parental patterning that imprinted you as a child.
Capricorn
December 22–January 19
With expansive Jupiter in your work and wellness zone forcing a confrontation with your planetary ruler Saturn in your communication zone, hard conversations might need to happen. Expressing your feelings with authenticity and emotional clarity could be freeing for you, Capricorn, even if it’s scary. If stress levels are high because you’re keeping something to yourself, it’s time to exhale and let it out.
Aquarius
January 20–February 18
Love and money are often tricky topics, Aquarius, and they’re both way up for you today. Saturn, the planet of restriction, is in your realm of resources, and it’s getting pushback from expansive Jupiter, currently in your house of love. You might feel like you have to prioritize one over the other when the real truth is that when self-love is infinite, anything is possible.
Pisces
February 19–March 20
You’ve been enduring Saturn’s journey through your own sign for a while, and you’ve gotten quite skilled at navigating your relationships with your ego in these last few years. But as Jupiter butts up against the planet of boundaries from your domestic zone, it could be fairly emotional and intense, Pisces. You can free yourself from the oldest, deepest form of self-doubt now, the kind that comes from your family of origin.
