Preview of Your Weekly Horoscope for December 8-14, 2024

Sun Trine Chiron

On December 10, 2024, something beautiful is on offer as the Sun in Sagittarius forms a trine with Chiron in Aries. A trine is an aspect of harmony. It’s as if the two planetary bodies are inspiring one another and supporting mutual growth.

The Sun in Sagittarius brings expansion to this partnership through the shifting and opening of our perspectives and vaster beliefs of what is possible for ourselves. Chiron in Aries brings courage, inspiration, and a doorway into our fears, hurts, and spaces that have been waiting for this expansion.

On this day, it is as if a connection is being made within our beings. A connection that allows inspiration and courage to move directly into our hurts. A connection that facilitates the flow of new perspectives to shift our sense of self, identity, and relationship with our creation, dreams, and actions. A connection that offers growth, healing, and ownership of who you are.

It’s a time to let old stories unravel, attachments to a current version of self unwind, and trust in our innate knowing to prevail. Whether consciously or unconsciously, we know what we need and how to create these shifts within ourselves.

Venus Opposite Mars

As Venus continues to travel through the realm of Aquarius, Mars in retrograde takes its backward spin through Leo. Sitting in opposite signs to one another, these two planetary bodies come into direct opposition on December 12, 2024.

An opposition between planets highlights aspects within ourselves that are in opposition to one another. To experience inner dichotomy, contrast, and perhaps even contradiction is part of the human experience. This aspect invites us is to create a reality in which these opposing spaces can coexist with some sense of balance. Themes of individuality and partnership, personal liberation and love also come to the forefront so that we may find our way within these spaces.

Change births from tension. This day brings tension to our minds, bodies, and beings as well as surges of creativity, passion, and realignment with how we express and channel our energy. This supports your understanding of what you desire in your life, relationships, and self-expression.

Mercury Sextile Venus

In a few days, Mercury retrograde in Sagittarius will draw to a close. But before reaching its final stage of backward spin, it comes into a sextile aspect with Venus in Aquarius on December 13, 2024.

Much like a trine, a sextile is a harmonious relationship between two planets. It inspires growth. It brings healing to our perspectives, beliefs, and narratives. It supports the rewriting of our stories of self and of life that we have been experiencing in recent weeks. It is a day to remain open to inspiration, listen to our desires, and engage with what feels liberating and fulfilling.
