Last month the planetary power was about to shift from the lower to the upper half of your Horoscope. This month it actually happens. By the 8th, 70 per cent (and sometimes 80 per cent) of the planets are above the horizon. Jupiter started to move forward last month (in your House of Career) and Neptune (also in your House of Career) moves forward on the 4th—also after many months of Retrograde motion. So, let go of family obligations for a while (or keep them to the bare minimum) and focus on your career.
Jobseekers should have had success last month, but there are still good opportunities this month until the 8th. After the 8th social connections, or perhaps your spouse or partner, have opportunities for you. Those of you who hire others might be thinking of cutting back now, and it might be wise.
You are well into a yearly social peak right now and it will last all month. You are reaching out to others, working to create the social life of your dreams, taking the initiative. There is a very happy romantic opportunity coming on the 8th or 9th. This doesn’t mean that you have to take it—the planets rarely take away free will—but the opportunity is there. There are three planets in your House of Love and I read this as three suitors or girlfriends who are vying for your affection. For singles this can be confusing, but it is a nice problem to have. Better that than no opportunity.
Last month was sexually active and the trend continues this month as well. From a health perspective the danger is of overdoing a good thing. Safe sex and sexual moderation are important factors in health from the 8th onwards. You need to rest and relax more until the 22nd. Detox regimes are powerful after the 8th. The kidneys and hips are important before the 8th.
There is a partnership or joint venture opportunity happening until the 16th. In general social connections play a huge role in earnings then. Your spouse or partner is prospering—but working very hard—and there are more challenges (short term) for him or her. This is a wonderful period—all month—for refinancing old debt or paying off debts. It is good to deal with tax issues now too. If you are involved with insurance claims, there might be some delays but the outcome is favourable.
This is a great month to get rid of old possessions you no longer need, and make room for the new that wants to come in. It is also wonderful for personal transformation, personal re-invention, losing weight and the like.

Many of the trends that we wrote of last month are still in effect this month. The 8th House is very powerful until the 21st. This shows the prosperity of the partner (and his or her finances are much, much better than last month, and probably because of your personal efforts) and his or her generosity with you. It shows the ability to access outside money, such as lines of credit or outside investors if you need them. Debts are easily paid (and easily made). December is a great month (just like last month) for refinancing old debt on more favourable terms. Professional investors, or those of you who have investment portfolios, should look at bonds and the bond market for profit opportunities. After the 5th, as your financial planet moves into Capricorn and your 9th House, foreign investments seem interesting. The blue chip conservative stocks are probably best then. The 9th House is considered the most fortunate House of the Horoscope, so the financial planet moving through there shows good fortune—financial increase. While this is not the aspect for a lottery winner (Capricorn is much too conservative for that) it does show luck with calculated risks.
On a spiritual level the 8th House rules the deeper things of life; deeper understanding of life after death, reincarnation, resurrection and ascension. It shows a person’s desire to reinvent and transform him or herself (a form of personal resurrection). So these interests become more important in the month ahead. You will increase your understanding of these subjects.
On a more mundane level it shows enhanced libido and greater sexual activity.
After the 21st your focus is more on foreign travel, foreign affairs and foreign people. You are more interested in foreign cultures and languages. There is a greater interest in religion, philosophy and metaphysics. And with so much power in your 9th House (40 to 50 per cent of the planets are either there or move through there), there will be religious revelation and philosophical breakthroughs if you want them. Happy travel and educational opportunities come. For students there is good fortune in your studies.
Love seems very happy this month and singles have wonderful opportunities from the 20th onwards. There is more closeness in existing relationships too. You and the beloved are basically on the same page, seeing eye to eye. You are not clones of each other—you have your own individuality—but you are in harmony, in agreement, and seeing things from a similar perspective.
Health is excellent all month. You can enhance it further by giving more attention to the liver and thighs (until the 25th) and to the spine, knees, teeth, bones and skeletal alignment all month (and for the next two years).
