Tarotscopes | December 2025
Happy December, everyone! The year is coming to its end, and the retrogrades of last month have hopefully ensured that we are on the right course. The main takeaway from December’s astrology is expansion. Sagittarius season always invites a sense of optimism, magic, and abundance that mystifies the collective. To amplify this, we spend the month with Mars in the sign of Sagittarius as well. Together, a sense of adventure and, at times, too much fire are to be expected. Let’s look at some key transits for the month ahead.
December 4th– Full Moon in Gemini
This Full moon is about connections, information, and drama. The axis where Sagittarius and Gemini coexist is all about the dissemination of information. Be mindful of the types of information you choose to share and listen to. If lies have been told, then the truth shall be revealed.
December 11th– Mercury in Sagittarius
Mercury re-enters Sagittarius after being retrograde. This is a collective ability to gain and share knowledge for deeper understanding. Enjoy this opportunity to engage with spiritual themes and thought-provoking conversations.
December 15th– Mars enters Capricorn
Mars in Capricorn does very well. Energy and drive are abundant; we can materialize our goals and use our ambition wisely. Start big tasks and undertakings this week, and you will achieve more than you anticipated. “Do what is hard, have an easy life. Do what is easy, have a hard life.”
December 19th– New Moon in Sagittarius
The new moon is a new beginning and an awakening. This, alongside Mars in Capricorn, is ideal for drafting plans and goals. Write down your wishes and wants, and begin to plan out logistically how you will put in the work to achieve them. Magic occurs when our visions and actions work together to shape our reality.
December 21st– Capricorn season begins…
The tarot card for the collective is The World. As the last card of the tarot, its presence is symbiotic with endings. As 2025 comes to a close, we are reminded of all that we have lost and gained, what we are ending and what we are beginning. This is a period of atonement, reverence, and gratitude as we collectively look for a new beginning and rejoice in the possibility that anything can happen. You are being invited to dream, collaborate, and dance with the chaos of the inevitable. Look inward and take inventory of all the dreams you have yet to materialize; let that be the light to guide you through this crepuscular chapter.
Aries
The Moon
This is a month of deep illumination. This is a reminder that what is done in the dark always comes to light. With Saturn going direct in this sign, past oversights might catch up with you or be exposed. This isn’t always a negative, but it can allow you to course-correct past mistakes. You might find yourself forgiving others or yourself through this journey. The beautiful part of life is that change is constant; allow yourself to let go of all rigidity.
Taurus
Five of Cups
This is a card of discontent and fear of loss. If you are in a season of grief, allow that process to happen fully. The reminder here is that the only way out is through. Let these feelings pass through you to be fully alchemised and motivate you further. Not all is lost, for through this hardship, knowledge is gained. If you are not in direct contact with grief, then the message could be telling you it’s time to let go of emotional baggage. Things can only get better.
Gemini
Four of Pentacles
Reassessing your values is what is being asked of you. The Four of Pentacles invites you to look at how you “spend” your worth. If finances are not what you would like them to be in this moment, spend some time looking at them honestly. Where can you budget, cut back, or open new money portals? If money is not a concern at this moment, look at your time. Time is our most valuable asset, and it should be spent wisely.
Cancer
King of Cups
The question being asked here is: What are you going to do in instances where you feel disconnected? How do you show up and guide yourself? The King of Cups represents the “airy” aspect of water, prompting us to examine how we think about our emotions. This is a reminder not to lose yourself in them completely, but think critically. Reconnect with the logical part of yourself so you can co-create with what you are feeling, rather than letting them run the gamut. Never make permanent decisions on temporary emotions.
Leo
Eight of Swords
Known as the card of interference, you are off track with the way you are thinking about a particular situation. The Eight is a direct message alerting you that too much energy and attention are being spent on something trivial. If you are in the midst of a challenge, your thinking is too narrow. Take a step away and reassess later.
Virgo
Four of Cups
Apathy and longing usually coexist when this card appears. Looking back at what once was or what could be is robbing you of the present moment. You must allow yourself to be fully attuned to the joys of the moment. Magic is always available for those who seek it.
Libra
King of Swords
You are thinking clearly and are being asked to move forward with your plans. This is a sign of clarity, pushing you to take action. What do you want to pursue? Know that things are in flow, and that will catch up to your expectations quickly. You will be surprised by how easily these goals manifest.
Scorpio
Strength
This is a moment of creativity, courage, and power. You will be using the innate fire within you to motivate you moving forward. Strength is a reminder of all the power you naturally possess. Tap into it now. If you feel inclined, this could also be a beautiful season to engage with your creativity. Follow your muses.
Sagittarius
Three of Swords
Harsh separations and frustrations are surrounding you. With Mars entering your sign, this is typical. However, your luck and optimism will persevere. Do not dwell on petty grievances; continue to move forward. The suit of swords is a mental one. How you are thinking about things is where the frustration is created. Cut through the chaos, look for the silver lining.
Capricorn
Queen of Wands
Confidence is a recurring theme for you this December. You are being asked to remember that you have many reasons to be confident. Through struggle and hardship, you have matured and become someone worth celebrating. Take a moment to appreciate all you have overcome and how much you truly have to offer. There is nothing more magnetic than charisma and self-worth.
Aquarius
The Hanged Man
If faced with indecision or feelings of stagnancy, then it is time to act. The only way to trudge forward is by switching your current circumstances. Prone to overthinking, you need to make the decision that feels more authentic to you, rather than one that pleases others. Once you take action, you will feel freed from your mental trappings.
Pisces
Page of Swords
You are in a state of curiosity and rebellion. Break the self-imposed limitations you have chosen to operate from. Taking risks right now is encouraged, as they will prompt you to explore new and creative outlets. Naturally mercurial, you are being pushed back into your natural state of flow rather than congealing. Start becoming curious about what other possibilities are available to you.
