Recovery period
The Sun transits in trine in the fifth field in Capricorn , where the New Moon forms on January 18th. Mars has also already been transiting Capricorn since January 15th. Venus and Mercury continue their square in the fourth field in Sagittarius , until December 24th and January 1st respectively, after which they in turn move into Capricorn . As for the slower planets, they all involve the third decan: Saturn and Neptune in Pisces are in opposition , Uranus in Taurus is in trine , Jupiter in Cancer is in sextile (until January 11th, then it moves to the second decan). Except for the final part of December, a positive period is therefore expected, albeit one of recovery. Expect some less effective days such as December 26th, January 1st, 2nd, 14th, 15th, and 16th. The best days will be December 30th and 31st, January 4th, 7th, 8th, 12th, 13th, 17th and 18th.
Doing too much or doing well
Let's face it: recent times haven't always been easy, much less lighthearted. I'm referring to November and the first part of December, but a certain aftertaste of tiredness is possible even in the final days of the year; so much so that—as we've seen—the fast-moving planets extend their square after Mars has already concluded it. This is, however, a period of progressive and decisive relaxation , perfect for regaining mental and physical energy, clearing your thoughts, and dedicating a little more time to pleasure and not just to duty. To be honest, even the holidays might require a little too much effort: preparing family lunches or dinners, attending gatherings with friends or colleagues, buying gifts, tidying up the house, organizing possible vacations, and so on—these are all things you know how to do, but above all, you want to do well... but you'd be more willing to do them if they weren't all piling up in the same days! Instead, some moments of stress cannot be ruled out, even if they're fleeting and compensated by satisfaction. This doesn't mean you won't breathe a genuine sigh of relief after New Year's Eve, that is, once the major anniversaries have passed but before the definitive resumption of work activities, that is, when you still have field free time just for yourself: for the things that bring you pleasure, serenity, a sense of gratitude, and fulfillment. And it makes little difference whether alone or in (selected) company; the important thing is to feel good.
Hope and trust
The final phase of work before the holidays may be a bit dispersive and tiring: too confusing and even ineffective, which is precisely what you're least satisfied with. On the other hand, when faced with emergencies or setbacks, staying organized to optimize your energy isn't possible, and perhaps it would be more effective to adopt a flexible, almost improvisational, approach: something difficult for you, or rather, not very spontaneous. But somehow you'll manage, and you'll be able to give yourself a regenerating break before resuming your activities with renewed determination. Unlike many others, you'll return to work with a clear idea of your commitments, plans, and priorities! Having the right overview will provide you with a very useful operational guide, but this doesn't mean you'll lose sight of the details. On the contrary, you'll be more efficient in adhering to well-defined milestones and will likely be able to achieve some results as early as the first half of January. As for your personal life, despite the fatigue and some residual bad mood, you'll be able to enjoy the best aspects of the end-of-year celebrations, which can be summed up in a few words: tranquility, stability, peace... and perhaps that hint of hope, of trust, which is the essence of this period! If there have been disagreements, misunderstandings, or unpleasant miscommunications with your partner (or a friend or family member), don't just gloss over them, but offer explanations and listen to those of others, thus fostering a truly constructive and decisive exchange.
First decade
Mars is in trine until December 28th, Venus from December 24th to January 1st, followed by Mercury from January 1st to 8th. It's a peaceful period, during which you'll find a pleasant emotional balance and a clearer vision of what you want to accomplish and achieve in the new year. All relationships, especially family and romantic ones, will improve.
Second decade
Mars 's trine will affect you between December 28th and January 10th, and will be accompanied by Venus until the 9th and followed by Mercury from the 8th to the 14th. Meanwhile, Jupiter returns to a good sextile on January 11th. A general recovery phase is also in store for you; you'll enjoy the company of loved ones and, above all, you'll rediscover passion and enthusiasm for projects in your relationship.
Third decade
The slow-moving planets support you: Jupiter is in sextile until January 11th, Mars in trine from the 10th... and the fast-moving planets will also contribute positively. The second half of the astrological month may be more effective and rewarding, but overall, you'll feel better. Stronger motivation and clearer ideas will help you get back to work, and communication will return to your personal relationships.
