All Signs

Seek those who are looking to create community. Find groups where people are coming together to create change; to act in the well-being of the collective above the individual. December is about building bridges, instead of burning them. It’s about connecting with people who create space for equality, equity, and diversity. It’s about sharing stories and ideas; being authentic and vulnerable. And above all, it’s about healing and growth. December will see many of us prioritizing our personal healing and growth journeys over career, societal obligations, and family drama. In our personal lives, and in society at large, we are shedding the idea that as an individual we are too small to make a difference. We can change the world, and our lives, one small act at a time.

Aries: Mar. 21 to Apr. 19

This month it’s going to be hard not to feel resentment about the holidays. You want to give, you want to share in family and community and create special moments, but you’ll easily be snared by negative thoughts. These thoughts will centre around how hard you work and how you feel like you have nothing to show for it. Everything you bring in just goes out to other people. To shift this, and allow space for healing, the universe is asking you to go inward and quiet your mind, to find a deeper understanding of yourSelf and your life in all its complexity. By creating time in nature, deliberately putting down your devices, journaling, doing art, or simply sitting quietly you can quiet the inner chaos and find connection with the All That Is. Life is reciprocity; what you give from your heart comes back to you, and magic is around every corner. If you look for it.

Taurus: Apr. 20 to May 20

I beg you to be patient and look for the deeper meaning of things. No matter what’s going on, it’s happening for a reason; the Universe is tricking you into realizing your full potential. Trust the process, get creative, and consciously call in what you are looking for. Pretend intend. Pretend the thing is already happening, the connection is already made, the goal is already achieved, and then get creative with how you move toward it. Trust your gut instinct, trust that incidents, challenges, and circumstances are happening for a reason and assume there is an underlying cause. What needs to change? Are you really following your heart or are you compromising? Are you moving too fast, or have you slowed to a stagnant crawl? Ask yourself these questions, and  the next time something goes “wrong”, try to laugh it off. It’s just Cayote (the Trickster) tricking you into remembering your potential.

Gemini: May 21 to Jun. 20

I hate to break it to you, Gemini, but December might be a bit of a rocky road. Live is going to present you with a situation that you’ve never had to face before, and your life experiences are not going to be of any help. Don’t worry, this is happening for a reason. Admit it, you’ve known for quite some time that a major shift needs to take place. But you’ve been holding onto the delusion that the situation will resolve itself, that if you just tough it out, it’ll all be ok. However, that’s just not working anymore and you know it’s time to burn away the old so you can invite in the new. You long to find your passion. You long to find your purpose. You long to find your drive. Be patient. All you can do right now is trust that process, feel what you’re feeling, and, as best you can, orient yourself toward the life you want to create.

Cancer: Jun. 21 to Jul. 22

Ok, my dear. Remember to breath. Connect with the Earth as much as you can. You’ll need to practice patience over the holidays; it’ll be a struggle to make any progress toward your goals/dreams. To top this off, you’ll probably have a case of the growlies, so be careful how you talk to yourself and to other people. There is a beautiful process taking place within you, a stepping into your divine feminine, or deepest inner knowing. You feel it moving like a tide through your emotions and your creative Self. Don’t worry, you’re on the right path and all will work out in the end. Instead, try to enjoy the holidays and the time it gives you with friends and family. Go look at Christmas lights, let yourself get invited to dinners, and maybe spend some days curled up in a blanket reading a good book.

Leo: Jul. 23 to Aug. 22

Whatever you are working toward had better watch out, cause your sights are set and there is no stopping you now! You know there is still a tonne of work to do and that you can’t lose momentum at this point in the game, but I hope you also remember that you are acting from your big, generous heart and that energy, in itself, is propelling you toward your goal. It would also be helpful to recognize that there are many different paths open to you right now. Some you had not thought of before. So stay open to synchronicity, new resources and ideas, and helpful connections. Just remember that the world doesn’t always move at your pace, so you might have to exercise some patience and trust that everything will come together at the right time.

Virgo: Aug. 23 to Sept. 22

Life is on an upswing. Things are happening, contacts are being made, and you are an inspiration to others. You seem to be able to take on any role that life requires of you and move with ease throughout your social milieu. To others you look like someone who has their life completely under control. However, you’re not so sure. You often lie awake in the middle of the night wondering whether or not you are doing it “right”. You fret that you are too unconventional, that no one really knows the “real” you (and if they did you think they would be horrified), and you assume others are judging you from behind closed doors. My dear, nothing could be further from the truth. To prove it to yourself, I challenge you to keep a diary of the nice things people say to you, the special moments in the day, and all those who support you and continue to cheer you on.

Libra: Sept. 23 to Oct. 22

December is going to be a bit of a wake-up call from the Universe, dearest Libra. It’s going to become glaringly apparent that your current circumstances are of your own making. The trick will be to remember that you can change your reality, and the trajectory of your life, at any time. There are limitless possibilities, but your innermost self isn’t going to continue to allow you to rely on others to open the doors to those possibilities for you. Take a look at your life right now, what are you creating? Step into the role of self-nurturer and tend to your inner world. Become meticulously clear about the direction you are heading and the life you want to create. The more you do, the more magic you will see manifest come the new year.  

Scorpio: Oct. 23 to Nov. 21

You are learning to smooth out your quills, my friend. That is to say, you are learning to trust and be vulnerable again. Your heart is blossoming open and there is this newly awakened innocence, or awe, about the world and the universe. This is good because it’s attracting people and situations into your life that are playful, that bring you relief from the seriousness of it all, and who inspire you to create in new and exciting ways. Do your best to lovingly encourage yourself to trust yourself and have faith in humanity. Let your heart crack open and be vulnerable. And always, always, trust your gut.

Sagittarius: Nov. 22 to Dec. 21

I’m willing to bet you feel like you’ve been fighting and uphill battle over the past while. It seems like everything is taking so dang long, and nothing goes according to plan. Whenever you feel this way take it as an opportunity to take a step back and reassess the situation. Are you still acting from your truest intent? Have you compromised or overextended yourself? What is your big picture and where does it come from, within you? This would also be a great time to find those with similar stories to yours. To gain perspective from those who may have more experience than you. To activate your Spidey senses (from your gut) and feel into the collective story. Doing so will help you find the best path forward and shed light on why certain roadblocks have come up and what you can do to mitigate them.

Capricorn: Dec. 22 to Jan. 19

When things are done in a good way (with the highest good of All in mind), then all of life flourishes. Take some time to look within this month, let December be about realigning with your integrity and planting the seeds of your future, not harvesting the fruit. Listen to your own inner logic and be discerning when assessing others and making decisions. Make sure you look at every angle and that your actions sit right in your belly and on your conscience. You are laying the foundations for the changes that are to come in the new year, and many of those foundations are on the inner realms. Expect that what you do now will have lasting repercussions for you and your loved ones, and the more you move with integrity, the more bountiful will be the reward.

Aquarius: Jan. 20 to Feb. 18

If you are dealing with confusion about who you are, where you are going, and what you are doing, it’s because you’ve lost your own plot. You’re off the rails, my dear. You took a wrong turn (not that there actually are wrong turns). However, the Universe is working to clear your confusion and get you back on track. How can you help this process? Remember why you started on this particular path; the dream that resides within you. Take it back to the big picture, the Self that wants to live a grand life and be anything but mundane. Come into alignment with your highest path. You can’t leave any lost part of yourself behind if you want to move forward. You must be brave enough to love every aspect of who you are. It’s time to let yourself shine.

Pisces: Feb. 19 to Mar. 20

Take back ownership of every aspect of your life, Pisces. Step into the leadership role and get prepared for the work that lies ahead of you. Over the holidays I recommend highlighting every aspect of your work/life goals and getting clear about why and how you want to move forward. What’s really beautiful is that all this is happening with a recently found sense of grace, stability, and grounding. You know yourself much better this time around. You feel confident and assured, and you are ready to take on all that the Universe is bringing your way. Just make sure that you are cognizant of every aspect of your goals. Don’t leave any lose ends. Your future self with thank you.
