Current Moon Phase for the Northern Hemisphere

The Moon’s current phase for today and tonight is a Waning Crescent phase. This phase is best viewed just before the sunrise in the western sky. In this phase the Moon’s illumination is growing smaller each day until the New Moon. During this part of the Moon cycle, the Moon is getting closer to the Sun as viewed from Earth and the night side of the Moon is facing the Earth with only a small edge of the Moon being illuminated. It can also be a great time to see the features of the Moon’s surface. Along the edge where the illuminated portion meets the dark side, the craters and mountains cast long shadows making them easier to observe with a telescope or binoculars.

Moon Alert

Avoid shopping or making important decisions from 8:30 AM to 11:50 AM EST today (5:30 AM to 8:50 AM PST). After that, the Moon moves from Virgo into Libra.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

This morning is a creative time for you because you can think outside of the box. As the day wears on, you will become productive, especially in service to others. Look for ways to improve your health because this might be possible. You might focus on a pet.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Today begins gently because your focus is on your private life. However, later in the day, you want to play! Accept invitations to socialize. Enjoy fun outings as well as sports events and playful times with kids. Be patient with partners and close friends.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

This is an interesting day because your primary drive is to work and be productive. Nevertheless, this morning, imaginative ideas will occur to you; however, they might be a bit pie-in-the-sky. Later in the day, relax at home. Focus on family issues.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

After the Moon Alert is over today, the Moon will move into your sign to stay for the next two and a half days. (This happens every month.) When the Moon is in your sign, you have a slight advantage over all the other signs. You can use this! (Admittedly, you might feel more emotional about everything.)

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

This is an excellent time for you to buy wardrobe items for yourself; however, do not do this during the Moon Alert today. (See above.) Fortunately, you are aware of your finances, and what you can or cannot do. You’re working hard to earn money now, plus you’re learning new things.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

You make a great impression on others now because fair Venus is at the top of your chart. This is why someone might approach you and ask for your advice about how to make something look better. Wait until after the Moon Alert is over to share your ideas.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

This is a powerful time for you because the Sun and Mars are at high noon in your chart; nevertheless, in the early morning, the Moon opposes you. After the Moon Alert, you can breathe a sigh of relief. Explore travel plans if you can.

In time, you will develop a very personal and convincing way of communicating with those around. Get ready for a special astrological perspective below.

 The zodiac sign for December 6 is Sagittarius.

 Astrological symbol: Archer. This symbol is representative for those born November 22 – December 21, when the Sun transits the Sagittarius zodiac sign. It reflects openness, ambition, creativity and positive outlook on life matters.

 The Sagittarius Constellation is one of the twelve constellations of the zodiac, with the brightest star in the asterism called Teapot. It covers an area of 867 square degrees. It lies between Scorpius to the West and Capricornus to the East, covering visible latitudes between +55° and -90°.

 The name Sagittarius is the Latin definition for Archer, the December 6 zodiac sign. The Greeks call it Toxotis while the Spanish say it is Sagitario.

 Opposite sign: Gemini. This means that this sign and Sagittarius are a straight line across each other on the zodiac wheel and can create an opposition aspect. This suggests ambition and realism as well as an interesting cooperation between the two sun signs.

 Modality: Mobile. This can tell how much distraction and courtesy exists in the lives of those born on December 6 and how exact they are in general.

 Ruling house: The ninth house. This house rules over knowledge, higher education, life philosophies and in general all adventure life has to offer to an individual and reveals why these have always played an important part in the lives of Sagittarians.

 Ruling body: Jupiter. This combination suggests education and communication. Jupiter is the king of the other planets because of its impressionable size. Jupiter is also representative for the enthusiasm of these natives’ existences.

 Element: Fire. This is a symbol that relates to passion and strength and is said to govern the ambitious people born under the December 6 zodiac sign. It also combines with water to make things boil, models earth or heats up air.

 Motto: “I seek!”

 People born on December 6 have an aspiring nature. They are always original and dignified. Just like a true Sagittarius, when they are not thinking about how to transformation the world, they are charming and romantic. They appreciate the occasions to give advices or offer moral support. They dislike obstacles and judgment. Those born under this sign enjoy outside enterprises, especially if there’s some kind of competition involved.

 Positive traits: These natives are friendly and direct beings but at the same time they can be quite reserved with a series of details about themselves. They are also modest and don’t really brag about their work or their achievements. They are competitive and love a good challenge but this is all people usually see on behalf of their efforts. They prefer to surround themselves with people as trustworthy as they are.

 Negative traits: Learning to be less gullible and trusty with anyone is one thing Sagittarius needs to do. Not everyone has the best motives and these natives keep forgetting that. Those born on this day are dreamy and boastful, they dream of saving the world because they are the most relevant and great people on earth. They are sometimes superstitious, cruel and spiteful.

Love and Compatibility

 Lovers born on December 6 are persistent and romantic. As Sagittarius natives they aim high in all matters of life, therefore they are also very pretentious when it comes to love.

 Their love affairs grow from strong friendships. They need time to know the person likely to stay beside them and although they are not usually a passionate lover their loyalty and honesty compensate.

They will lead a great inner home happiness governed by domestic responsibility and good judgment. They are most compatible with those born on the 1st, 6th, 9th, 10th, 15th, 18th, 19th, 24th and 27th.

 December 6 Zodiac people seem to be most attracted to the other fire signs: Aries and Leo as they tend to share the same vision of life. In love, Sagittarius is in a permanent search for a lively, creative and communicative partner and the most suitable to offer them this is the native born under Gemini.

As for the rest of partnerships between the other star signs and Sagittarius, you know what they say, stars predispose but people dispose.
