Read your sign’s 2023 horoscope to see what’s in store for you this year, or check out the Gemini personality profile.
Hello, darling Gemini, and welcome to your December 2023 monthly horoscope, in which we beg you to sl-o-o-o-w down and rest. Please. During November, you tapped into your charismatic side. You know how to captivate a room. But, with all due respect, do you know (and where) to be quiet? Your star assignment this month is to listen as much as you talk. If you can do this, Venus has surprises (and you’re someone who loves surprises) in store for you just in time for 2024. If you communicate selfishly, you might be without a New Year’s Eve kiss, and we know your flirtatious self can’t have that.
In all seriousness, around Monday, December 2, when Venus, ruler of love, enters emotionally turbulent Scorpio, someone you care about needs your help. It could be a dating partner, but it’s more likely a friend. Remember, while we tend to associate Venus with romance, she rules all relationships. But there’s a catch. Your chosen family member who could use someone to listen might not reach out. Asking for help can be hard when you’re feeling down. So text all your besties around this date to see who needs some cheer. From festive makeup to beauty gifts, there’s lots to love about December, but the stress of the holidays lingers.
The stars reward good friends. Did you think the cosmos forgot that you’re a fame monster? Neptune, a dreamy, psychic planet, went retrograde in June, asking you to become better at listening (do you sense a theme here?). If you implemented positive change into your professional life or creative passion projects, expect to enjoy praise once Neptune goes direct on Wednesday, December 6, in its home sign of Pisces and your 10th House of Social Status. This transit could indicate welcome news regarding cash flow, but astrologers can never promise money, given our country’s economy.
You’re going to have to put a note in your calendar for Tuesday, December 12, that simply says, “Check in with friends.” There’s a new moon, which indicates change, in chaotic Sagittarius and your 7th House of Partnership. Listening to loved ones is a month-long (well, you should always do it) assignment. However, your ruling planet, Mercury, also starts one of its notorious retrogrades on this date. If people were reluctant to open up about what’s troubling them without a Mercury retrograde, forget about it during the communication planet’s backward dance. It can be a thin line between behaving in a caring manner and straight-up badgering people, but if your family (blood or chosen) hasn’t gotten back to you yet, go ahead and follow up.
