Into the Deep: Weekly Horoscopes for Dec. 4-10

A beautiful winter sky for a Venusian week of depth and passion.

Weekly Summary

December 4-10, 2023

The week starts off in investigative mode. Venus moves into Scorpio and relationships are up for review, consideration, and further investigation. Questioning motives and getting to the bottom of things are a way to level up and figure out the authenticity and solidarity of this connection. Ultimately, it’s all good and whatever you uncover is going to help you both move to the next level. This energy is playing out in all relationships -both intimate, friendships, and coworkers. Notice where it is showing up for you!

Middle of the week has Neptune stationing to go direct. Neptune has been in retrograde since July 1st, and we’ve been refining our intuition, spirituality, and the way we experience unity over the past few months. This may bring in the need for a sweet escape and to spend some time with your newest sources of inspiration and imagination. Making art, reading, meditation, and spending time in nature are great ways to connect with the dreamy and drifty vibe.

As we head into the weekend, the moon dips into Scorpio with Venus and together they are echoing back into the shadows of depth, intensity, and focus. Now that you’ve uncovered what you needed to, this may be a time for love and deep connection. The good news is that Jupiter is showing up to the party bringing us optimism, hope and positivity that everything will work out. All your inner work, and outer manifestations of a job well done will shine over the weekend. Try to moderate yourself though, as a tendency to overdo it in celebration, food, or drink could come across as gregarious rather than generous and genuine. Work to be authentic and the universe will support your efforts!


Here’s what’s happening for your sign:

Wherever you are, find your flow with your horoscope this week. You can use your Ascendant or Sun Sign to start, but check in with your Mars, Venus, or Moon sign – as they may offer additional clues that may be helpful to you.

Aries

This is an industrious period, and this week will see you both starting and finishing projects that have been lingering. Getting end of the year tasks done will give you space to roam later in the month. You are questioning some tasks at work and why they still need to be done the old way, and you just might come up with a new efficient system that works so much better.  Middle week has issues of work-life balance coming to a head, as your dearest people are asking to be the center of your world. Heed that call and you will make satisfying connections that light your inner fires!


Taurus

Work and play can be combined, and this week has you doing both. You are focused, feeling good, and enjoying sensory experiences along the way. Light a candle and turn on some soulful music while you’re working, and you will notice how the time just flies. The weekend will tickle your toes through culinary delights, good company, and jovial pursuits. Just be sure to not take things too far as overindulgences (like spending too much money) could come back to haunt you later.


Gemini

You may get the urge to call you parents, as reconnecting with loved ones may come up as you think about the pending holidays. Spaces that feel like home are on your mind this week, and especially how can you better utilize your own. It’s a great time to host a get together and you have just the idea about what will be most enjoyable for the group when they come over! The end of the week has you feeling a bit more practical and getting your work done will be on your mind. Also issues with co-workers may come up but in a good way – like celebrating a job well done this year or a planning a holiday party. There’s no end to your event planning acumen, so lean in and enjoy the season!


Cancer

You may feel like staying in this week, and definitely giving your love to the nest or home spaces that support you. Planning remodeling projects, redecorating, and reinvigorating your kitchen with new cooking implements may be good ways to reimagine your dream space. Your intuition will be strong this week, so lean in and see where you can get the most bang for your buck. And then when you get the work done you can plan a grand celebration and host the taco or cookie bar of your dreams!


Leo

This week has money on your mind and you’re considering your resources and how to use them most wisely. Dig into the ways that your habits undermine your saving efforts. You’ve been having a lot of fun, but you’re seeing where you could do better. Keep it local and focus on your budget, which may be a bit of a downer at first. But when you choose to slow down, stay home, and monitor your bank account instead, you’ll see real star quality inside. “Moderation in all things” is good mantra to live by this week.


Virgo

You like to stay ahead, and you’ve got your holiday shopping well underway. You’ve considered your budget and you’ve made your list to get things done. But pause a moment. While you’ve been considering everyone else, have you neglected yourself? Take a moment for self-care this week: go have your nails done, get a massage, or see that new movie. Put the oxygen mask on yourself first, so you have the steam to take care of others later. You’ll be glad you did by the weekend as things get busy and the chaos will be a lot for your nervous system. Support yourself by not overpromising as you may not be able to deliver as usual.


Libra

Your mind has been abuzz with so many ideas and plans recently. This week has you going inside, internally focused, and questioning your own motives. If you stay super busy you don’t have to think about the ways in which you’ve lost your equilibrium. It’s time to find it again: through a cleanse, rekindling friendships, or reconnecting with your inner artist. The moon is supporting you in finding your ground. Think of your inner resources- your tolerance, fairness, and ability to see the beauty in everything. Let these be your guide and spend some time alone refilling your tanks through creative pursuits. You will feel more balanced, and able to see where you’ve gone too far too fast. Reign in where you need to.


Scorpio

Something is fishy and you smell it. This week you’ll be ferreting out dishonesty, unspoken half-truths, or where the hidden motives are in the circles where you swim. There is no better detective than you, and you’re on the case and in full force. When you get to the bottom of that mystery you will have had enough of people and public life for the week. You’ll be ready for time alone. Retreat into your nest and do the same sort of inner work. Have you focused on taking care of your physical body recently? Maybe it’s time to reinvigorate your cardio, health routine, or diet. Spend some time being honest with yourself and see where you may have been under or over doing it. Find your flow again by resetting personal boundaries.


Sagittarius

Your image and reputation are up for review and the outcome looks bright! Your outer world is in focus this week and your work is being recognized and rewarded with positive reviews and glowing looks. You’re on fire! Opportunities are presented that may require some negotiation so make sure you are serious and honest about what you can and can’t deliver. Don’t over promise and take a measured approach and you will get the breakthrough you’ve been waiting for. This is your season and it’s time to get out there and shine!


Capricorn

Integrity and clear communication in your words and actions are allowing you to the freedom you need to go off course a bit. Productivity has been your friend and you’re feeling expansive and like you want to take on a new adventure. You need to consider the balance between this new pursuit and your workload. Go slow and feel your way into this one. Consider all your options. Over the weekend you will get an epiphany that lets you see if this is the right opportunity or if something better is just up ahead. Hold the line and your high standards will be met twofold.


Aquarius

The collective conscious has been calling and you’re seeing where you need to let go and where you’re attached to creature comforts. There is some information that you uncover this week that validates your need for intimacy and close connection. Focus on this and you will counteract any guilt or negative feelings about not being able to save the world. Seek escape midweek and it will allow you to dream a new dream. You may just find some healing you didn’t know you needed. Optimism, the future, and seeking new horizons will be in your thought patterns. You can see the bigger picture and it is sweet!


Pisces

You can lose track of time when you’re focused on helping the ones you love. Boundaries have been elusive recently and your interconnectedness may start to feel like a co-dependency. Consider where you’ve gone too far to please and uncover the truth about the motivations of each party. You will find true intimacy when you take a step back. Stability is found when everyone is doing their part. Rebalance this relationship to find common ground and healing. Notice that when you retreat into your inner worlds that everyone else is fine and can manage themselves. Forgiveness can be found by the weekend, and you may just find a new adventure or artistic pursuit to pour yourself into. But be forewarned, the tendency to overdo it will be strong so protect your energy.
