Your Daily Horoscopes for Wednesday, December 5th

Loose ends fray as the open-minded Sagittarius Sun shifts our attention away from the critical Virgo Moon. We want to apply ourselves diligently to the work at hand, but cannot prevent our thoughts from jumping to premature conclusions as logical Mercury aspects dark Pluto. If we want to achieve success now, we must overcome our current tendency to gloss over the facts. Thankfully, our ability to concentrate grows stronger as the day progresses.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Projects continue to pile up around you now and you may begin to worry that you won’t finish your work on time. You might even feel as if you could easily scatter your energy and will have little to show for yourself by the end of the day. Thankfully, setting priorities helps prevent you from wasting precious resources. Don’t make yourself crazy trying to finish everything today. As long as you’re putting in sincere effort, the rest of the world will understand.

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

You feel very creative today, yet you still may run into obstacles as you begin a new project. Generally speaking, it’s time to push yourself into taking decisive action, but make sure that your head isn’t in the clouds when doing so. You’ll end up losing track of time if you drift off into fantasies. However, the more practical you are in your approach now, the more you will have to show for your talent.

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

Unexpressed emotions may follow you into work today, coloring your attitude and making it more difficult to focus your attention. However, you can consciously choose to acknowledge the thoughts that aren’t directly related to your job, even if you choose not to tell anyone for now. Monitoring your own internal process helps you successfully cope with any stress you encounter at this time.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

It may seem as if someone is picking on you today or somehow having fun at your expense. It’s possible that you’re being overly sensitive, yet there’s no reason to simply remain quiet if you feel like a victim. Express your hurt so that your voice is heard, but then let go of any lingering resentment and move on. There’s nothing to be gained now by holding on to the past.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

A recent decision involving your home life comes under reconsideration one more time today. You may need to take concrete action to solidify your position. It’s not that your current choices cannot be undone. It’s just that you can’t afford to expend the time and energy required to go over this again. Getting it right now prevents trouble down the road.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You may know exactly what you want one moment and then question your feelings just a few minutes later. The inconsistencies of your desires can be a thorn in your side now that the evocative Moon is back in your sign. Avoid getting frustrated if you’re not as decisive as usual. Putting off final judgment for a few more days is the best choice for now. Play through the possibilities in your mind one more time, instead.

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Financial issues may be coming to a head, but you need more time to wrap your mind around all the variables. You want to retreat to a quiet place so you have the time and space to think, but this is a luxury you might have to forgo today. Even if you are being pushed to declare your position now, don’t compromise your core values for the sake of expediency.

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Resist the temptation to criticize your friends now, especially if your true intention is to help them. They might not be amenable to your unsolicited advice or constructive comments. Setting the stage for a showdown isn’t very wise today. If you sense any tension in the air, keep your thoughts to yourself for a few days until the energy settles down. Show your support by simply listening to the dreams of others without saying anything at all.

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Your expertise could be required at work today, and you are destined to become a hero if you stay focused on exactly what must be done. However, you aren’t seeking the spotlight now, so you might not accept the extra obligations being tossed your way. Instead of automatically declining responsibility, find a middle path so you can still save the day and tend to your personal needs at the same time.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Your social life seems to be kicking up a storm, but you’re also interested in using your personal connections to get ahead professionally. The good news is that you are able to combine work with pleasure more easily these days. Don’t turn down an invitation just because it sounds boring; you never know who you could meet or what might happen.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You may receive unexpected support from a powerful person today, but self-doubt could prompt you to politely decline the assistance. You might be unsure of other people’s intentions now, even if they appear quite sincere. However, it could turn out that the only negativity is your own. Trusting in yourself is the first step to being open to listening to anyone else.

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

Your co-workers may catch you off guard today with what they are saying about you. Your first reaction is to reject their feedback, but they probably mean well and it might be to your advantage to take what they say to heart. In fact, seeking out an objective opinion is never a bad idea. The cues you receive from others now can be crucial factors in the decisions you make over the next few days.

Current Moon Phase for December 5: Waning Gibbous

Gibbous Moon

(waning /62% illumination)

This is a tremendous time of transmutation. All of the prior elements are coming together for a final burst of creative output. You have seen a clear view of your own needs and the posture of significant others. Now the accumulation of that input is leading to a deep, core change within you. In this phase, you will naturally be inclined to seek higher guidance so that you can emerge from this transformation successfully. The Disseminting Moon favors sharing what you have learned (and are learning) with others.

Daily Cosmic Calendar for December 5th

The first main celestial event today is the lunar shift out of void mode in Leo and into practical Virgo (3:53AM PST) for the next 2+ days. It’s now time to roll up your sleeves and get down to brass tacks. Clean-up campaigns are a necessity. Make favorite rooms and bath areas glow again. Eliminate dust bunnies and bring outgrown clothing to second-hand stores. Repair work, sewing, and organizing your office-desk area are invigorated.  Being too pushy during the first half of the day is not advised since the Moon makes a potentially confusing polarity with far-out Neptune (4:52AM PST) while Mercury makes a frictional, 45-degree tie with underworld-ruling Pluto (5:26AM PST). Keep your business cards close to the vest, and don’t get roped into hazy, supposedly lucrative deals that offer pie-in-the-sky rewards.  Be more logical, sensible and grounded later on as the Moon makes a supportive, 60-degree liaison with Saturn (5:15PM PST) while the Moon also forms a trine with Pluto (7:36PM PST). Keep going forward as an efficiency master and serious, confident research expert.

More Feelings Comments

Your Daily Horoscopes for Tuesday, December 4th

We have time to integrate recent experiences as our lives quiet down a bit. Although we still might try to explain our feelings to someone we love, our words don’t fully express the situation as the dramatic Leo Moon squares talkative Mercury. If we put our thoughts out into the open, we may attract more attention than we really want. Most of us could benefit by shining a spotlight on others and appreciating them for what they add to our lives.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You may be feeling more positive now about what you are doing with your life. It’s as if you’re awakening from a sound sleep just as the lights are switched on. However, there is no need to overreact. If you work yourself up into a flurry of activity, you might have to retreat so that you don’t go over the edge. Making slow and steady progress is better than trying to sprint to the finish line.

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

Being aware of the conflict between two facets of your own personality today doesn’t mean you are able to arrive at a clear answer. The more you try to hold on to the status quo, the more difficult it is to make your choice. You might waste precious energy trying to figure a way out of your present dilemma, but the most useful solutions will come from remaining as open as possible to the changes ahead.

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

You can dance circles around everyone today because you feel as if you’re at the top of your game. Others may think you are quite charming and witty, but you might lose your advantage if you overplay your hand. Don’t act too sure of yourself or your plans could backfire pretty quickly. Enjoy the day, but resist the temptation to expect that everything should go your way.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

Opening your heart to someone at work today may have you worrying about the appropriateness of your actions, especially if the situation makes you uncomfortable. Try to avoid getting caught up in other people’s responses to your emotional disclosure. What anyone else thinks is less important now than what you feel; you will be better off expressing your vulnerability whether it is received with enthusiasm or not. You might be very busy caring about everyone else’s needs, but that doesn’t mean yours don’t count.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

It’s time to explore your emotions and show others what you want now that the Moon is back in your sign. However, you could be treading on dangerous ground if your motives are completely selfish. Putting yourself first is healthy as long as you also listen to and honor the requests of others. Communication is a two-way street so make sure to follow the signs as you move forward.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

What others don’t say now can grab your attention today, as if the unspoken words have more power because they are kept secret. This may manifest through a simple misunderstanding if you make a false assumption. Listen carefully to all the viewpoints of everyone involved. Discuss the most important elements of the current circumstances with those who want to work together to create positive change. Build a consensus and establish common ground to move things in the right direction.

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Good friends come to your rescue today, whether it’s just for an enjoyable escape or a more meaningful interaction to share your feelings. If there is nothing already on your calendar, make something happen by getting on the phone and connecting with your social network. This has the potential for a really fun day, but it won’t amount to much unless you step in and co-create it. Think outside of the box and anything is possible.

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You’re likely to reveal more of yourself than you intend today, yet you still can act professionally at work now that the Moon is in your 10th House of Public Status. Maintaining your composure is probably a good idea, for your job should come first at this time. And even though it’s not wise to leave your emotions completely out of the picture, don’t say everything that you feel. Keeping some things to yourself now gives you more control of your life.

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You might be feeling upbeat about what’s happening, but don’t bury significant information just so you can have a better time today. It’s not that you will necessarily lean toward denial; it’s just things may not be quite as clear as you prefer. If you find yourself drifting off into fantasies, pull yourself back to the ground and begin the conversation once you feel like you have returned to earth. Stick to the facts as much as possible and the rest should fall into place

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You may be working harder than ever since you realize that it’s time to make a significant commitment to your career now — especially if you are to succeed. But your nagging fear of failure could just be the surface of a deeper issue. Your critical judgments might stem from your uneasiness with actually reaching your goals. Examine what you’re really afraid of before firming up your plans for the day.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Although everything might seem to be going well now, a difficult interaction with someone at work could catch you off guard. If you’re feeling uncertain about your responsibilities, ask your boss for clarification. It’s better to know exactly what’s expected of you today, so you can gauge your time accordingly. Just make sure to keep one eye on your long-term goals, even if others are encouraging you to take care of business in the present moment.

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You may be asked to work in service now without receiving the recognition you deserve. This lack of attention could bring up familiar issues that make you uncomfortable. It’s not that you don’t want to be a team player, nor are you trying to avoid your job. You just don’t want to vie for the spotlight and you could resent it when everyone else receives the applause. If this is an ongoing problem, letting others know how you feel should help to alleviate the tension.

Invocation to the Wild Winds

This is the Night of Wild Winds!
We have opened ourselves to the still cold waters,
And tonight we open ourselves to their counterpart,
The ever-flying bitter winds that rush
Through all things! Open all the windows,
Let them run through the House,
Let them tear through our hair and our heads,
Let them flay us clean of all impurities!
For on the winds ride the souls of our ancestors,
And the spirits of the Air itself!
Listen to their songs, their whispers,
And learn the wisdom they speak.
Spirits of the Air, Powers of the Winds,
Be with us tonight!
Be with us in our beds,
Be with us in our dreams,
Be with us until the dawn!
Hail, Night of Wild Winds!
May we breathe in your inspiration
And may it blow us through to a new day!

Chant:

Spirit of the Wind, carry me,
Spirit of the Wind, carry me home,
Spirit of the Wind, carry me home to myself.

(The incense is carried throughout the house, and all windows are thrown open. They shall stay that way, regardless of cold, until after sunrise the next day.)

Your Daily Horoscopes for Monday, December 3rd

We are eager to start new projects now that the evocative Moon is in extroverted Leo. The Moon’s Grand Fire Trine with the inspirational Sagittarius Sun and irrepressible Uranus in pioneering Aries makes this a propitious time to initiate action. We are willing to set our goals a little higher and stretch a bit further to reach them. Even if we run into obstacles, we still feel joy from the upward movement of our spirit.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You are excited today as the storm clouds continue to clear, encouraging you to feel as if you can see forever. Although this is a great day to set long-term goals, the lively Leo Moon adds an element of playfulness to nearly anything you do. You can even come to terms with difficult emotions now, especially if you are willing to narrow your vision and move slower as you execute your plans.

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

You might reveal your innermost feelings today in a rather cavalier manner. Usually, it takes time for you to open up and verbalize your emotions, but self-disclosure seems like the simplest course of action now. Grab the opportunity to share while you can, since expressing what’s in your heart sets a positive tone for the days ahead.

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

You may have so much to do today that you feel tired before you even begin anything. And although it’s difficult to set a pace you can maintain throughout the day, getting started is half the battle now. Don’t worry about the possibility of letting others down because you’re not sure you can hold up your end of the deal. You might be happily surprised when you look back and realize how much you actually accomplished.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

Everything at work seems to be moving along smoothly today now that the extroverted Leo Moon collaborates with the planets in your 6th House of Employment. Nevertheless, your emotions are more complicated than others realize, but you might be afraid to share them now because you don’t want to create any drama. Ironically, expressing your true feelings will ultimately result in more harmony than if you remain quiet.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

Today’s outgoing Leo Moon poses an interesting dilemma. You’re more sensitive than usual, but you’re also excited by original ideas and unconventional plans of action. Your world is humming an unfamiliar tune and you are ready to play along, yet there’s a nagging voice that encourages you to stay within safe boundaries. Find a way to honor your vulnerability while still moving joyfully toward your future.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Newly acquired information must be integrated into your current perspective today, even if you think it will distract you from your real work. You might act impulsively, letting others know how you feel without regard to the consequences. Although there’s no need to postpone action until another day, make sure your decisions are made in a methodical manner rather than shooting from the hip.

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Although today is an action-packed day, it seems as if something is holding you back from doing as much as you wish. It may be that social obligations prevent you from having the fun that you wanted. However, if you remain flexible, the potential for enjoyment might resurface later in the day in ways that you could never expect.

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Although several planets moving through Water signs heighten your emotional sensitivity now, a Grand Fire Trine empowers you to swing into action and overcome any self-doubt. There’s still more work to do resolving issues regarding your own self-worth, but at least you can sense hope is on the horizon. Be patient yet persistent. Don’t ease up on your efforts, but it’s important to realize that it’s going to take some time to achieve the results you desire. Your positive attitude can make all the difference in the world.

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Your energy is building to a crescendo today, yet you must be careful not to over-commit so you don’t waste the current opportunities in front of you. It’s tempting to blindly trust your confidence now, but it’s healthier to support your optimistic outlook with analytical skills and a concrete plan. Balancing your goals with a bit of common sense multiplies your chances of finding success.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You can feel a shift into a new perspective, but you might still resist change. For this reason, the next few days may feel a bit strained as current circumstances require you to let go of the past. Meanwhile, now that the Moon is in expressive Leo, you need to take a risk to make the most of the situation. Nevertheless, watch your moods carefully, especially while interacting with people who stir up your emotions. It’s perfectly acceptable to switch the topic if things get too intense.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Social activities bring a lot of joy this time of year, but unfortunately, there is also a high price to pay. If you overextend your commitments now, you might find yourself too tired to do what really must be done. Your current practice should include moderation. If you curtail your activities just a little, you can conserve the energy that you need to fulfill your current obligations.

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

It might feel as if you’re running around in circles today, as you think and rethink the same ideas. Your current mental loops may border on obsession, but they can also indicate that some information about a project at work is still missing. Nevertheless, shine your inner light for all to see. Don’t waste precious energy trying to analyze what’s happening; just trust that it will all make sense in due time.

Your Love Horoscopes for the Week of December 3rd

The week gets off to a playful start with the Moon in outgoing Leo as we’re heading into the holiday season. On Friday a lunar shift into sociable Libra continues this convivial mood. But there could be some edgy moments that evening with surprises sprung by a shocking Moon-Uranus opposition. There’s also a little sharp tension on Saturday evening, so avoid conflict by keeping teasing on the sweet side. The Moon slips into the murky waters of Scorpio on Sunday afternoon, inspiring us to explore our hearts to solve the mystery of love.
Aries Horoscope
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Your weekend should be hot with the mood-setting Moon in lovely Libra and your 7th House of Partners. However, a tense square to your rowdy ruling planet Mars could stir up discontent on Saturday. You need physical stimulation to release your stress; move your body, explore new places and put some more spice in your personal life. Be playful in a light and easygoing way to create sparks, but avoid becoming too competitive or you could end up on the sidelines alone.

Taurus Horoscope
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

The sociable Libra Moon is in your 6th House of Service on Friday and Saturday where you can earn bonus points by being helpful to others. Giving a little more now or putting in a bit of extra effort pays off in the near future. In fact, you might even experience some of that joy on Sunday when the Moon shifts into sexy Scorpio and your 7th House of Relationships, enabling you to end the week with some intense play and passion.

Gemini Horoscope
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

You could be in for a yummy weekend with the charming Libra Moon’s presence in your 5th House of Romance on Friday and Saturday. This is your time to shine by being a gracious host, creative artist or perfect partner in pleasure. Though this seems like a light and frothy period, you still may settle into a deeper conversation with someone special. Addressing your desires more honestly reveals the truth of who you are and makes real intimacy possible.

Cancer Horoscope
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

The weekend begins on a weird note with a lunar opposition to unconventional Uranus on Friday that’s likely to rattle your cage and shake up the status quo. If you’re insistent on sticking to your plans, you may be scrambling to maintain control and will miss out on all the fun. A willingness to let go and accept what arises reduces stress and opens you up to new and different experiences. There’s no need to cling to the past. Heading toward the future with an open mind and a positive attitude is the only way to go.

Leo Horoscope
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

Keeping your sense of humor in the midst of heated conversations could be your key to social success this weekend. The gracious Libra Moon occupies your 3rd House of Communication where charm and diplomacy are held in high regard. Sure, you may encounter combative individuals with ideas that oppose yours, but if you can’t carry on a polite discussion, it’s probably wiser to walk away than to allow the conflict to escalate.

Virgo Horoscope
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

There’s nothing wrong with a little midweek passion since the Moon is in your sign on Wednesday and Thursday. The former is ideal for mixing work and pleasure but the latter is made for pure play. Reward yourself for taking care of business with a little self-indulgence. Making your needs a priority puts you in a stronger position to express yourself in a current relationship or while pursuing a new one.

Libra Horoscope
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Expect an exciting but not necessarily orderly and predictable weekend. The Moon is in your creative sign, heightening your emotions and casting you in the spotlight. But planetary connections with revolutionary Uranus provoke unusual events and unexpected feelings on Friday that could knock you off stride. Nevertheless, if you can relax and go with the flow you could find yourself in some delightfully surprising circumstances.

Scorpio Horoscope
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You may be more comfortable staying away from the crowds most of this weekend. The Moon spends Friday and Saturday traveling through your 12th House of Obscurity where privacy is particularly desirable. Spending time alone or with one undemanding individual gives you a break from the social whirl. The mood changes on Sunday when the evocative Moon moves into your passionate sign and aligns with dreamy Neptune to offer you both peace and passion.

Sagittarius Horoscope
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

The lovely Libra Moon lights up your 11th House of Groups on Friday and Saturday, encouraging you to go out with friends or connect with others through an organization as a positive way to use this energy. Just be aware that excitement could suddenly get out of hand with some reckless behavior. Breaking patterns and trying new activities are fine as long as you don’t take foolish risks. You may need to recover and relax on Sunday so give yourself some peace and quiet while you can.

Capricorn Horoscope
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You’re the social director this weekend, assuming the impossible responsibility of keeping everyone happy. However, that’s not a job that leaves you much time for yourself, so do your best to avoid taking on more obligations than necessary. You will have more fun if you don’t try to control events all on your own. The chances for surprises are good and a lack of cooperation from others might be likely, which means flexibility is needed now to reduce stress and enhance pleasure.

Aquarius Horoscope
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Breaking out of routine situations is a must this weekend. You’re usually the first one willing to explore unfamiliar territory, and that’s especially true now. Trying to stuff your feelings to appease others could backfire on Friday or Saturday. Sure, compromises are necessary in any relationship, but if you give too much ground now, the outcome might not be pretty. Have an exit plan in case you need to make a sudden getaway.

Pisces Horoscope
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

The Moon is in accommodating Libra and your 8th House of Shared Values on Friday and Saturday. Ideally, this tunes you into your partner’s needs and allows you to get closer. However, there’s a risk of relinquishing your own desires and making sacrifices that won’t work to your advantage. Sometimes it’s better to stand alone than to lose yourself to please a person. Just listen to your heart and you won’t go too far off track.

Your Daily Cosmic Calendar for December 3rd

The first workday of December 2012 is a rather upbeat and opportunistic 24-hour time-span. Look for breakthroughs in higher consciousness — courtesy of a Moon-Uranus trine of 120-degrees from Leo to Aries (3:08AM PST). If you are awake and active at this time, explore high-tech subjects or learn more about advances on the cutting edge of science and metaphysics.  There is reinforcement of this expansive, mental state of affairs later on as the Moon makes a supportive, 60-degree alliance with Jupiter (3:51PM PST). Everything seems to be coming up roses as the Moon in Leo and the Sun in Sagittarius proceed with a pleasant wave of cosmic goodness by their forming a harmonious trine in fire signs (6:05PM PST).  It probably won’t surprise you too much if the bloom comes off the rose shortly after the solar-lunar positive partnership takes place. Venus becomes the catalyst for change as it makes an abrasive, 135-degree tie with Ceres (8:32PM PST) while also forming a square to the Moon (11:39PM PST).  Whenever Venus shifts toward being more mischief-maker than uplifting benefactor, emotions and feelings are in shake-up mode and love bonds may become frayed temporarily. Hang in there as Monday evening morphs into Tuesday morning.
