The 2025 Annual Forecasts are available for pre-order. Annual Forecasts will be sent via e-mail on January 1st.
Mars, Pluto and retrograde Mercury are closely aligned. This is not comfy! When Mars and Pluto dance together, the potential for violent crime, intense power struggles, and devastation is likely. Retrograde Mercury might steer this influence to address past problems. It might be like a big, final "last straw" by Mother Nature to areas of abuse in the environment. It might also be a final "last straw" to abuse within relationships. It is not conciliatory. It's ruthless. Patience, tolerance, and commonsense will help to keep a lid on things. After all, if you took all the people in the world who fell asleep at work and laid them end to end, they'd be a lot more comfortable.
You might be tempted to demand that others listen to you in politics, religion, or racial issues. You might feel incensed about your beliefs. How can others not see the simple "light of day?" How stupid can they be? The refusal of someone to co-operate with travel, higher education, publishing, the media, or medicine and the law might infuriate you. You want to take matters into your own hands. But hey - calm down. Don't get your belly in a rash. If you're emotionally excited about these things, your clarity has gone out the window. (Statistics show that three-quarters of the people in the world are 75 per cent of the population. You just can't change that.)
You're never casual about finances. You're the financial wizard of the zodiac. Taurus the bankers. Finance is your area of expertise, and it is certainly your area of interest! Therefore, your displeasure with how certain issues are being handled -- inheritances, shared property, jointly held funds, or something related to insurance, taxes and debt will be strong! You might be one unhappy camper this week. Perhaps others disregard your wisdom? Perhaps a power struggle about these issues arises because the decisions of others affect your assets and wealth. Naturally, this matters to you! I recommend you keep your shirt on (which is tough to do if you have to get something off your chest).
Dear Gemini. Tread carefully this week. Powerful, explosive planetary energy is taking place opposite your sign. (See All Signs above.) This leads to difficulties in partnerships and close friendships. Old issues are back once again and they are nasty! No doubt they involve power struggles. They might also involve plumbing, laundry, crime, violence, fire, rodents, and opposing views about how to repair or fix something, or make something better. Resist the urge to play the "I told you so" card. (That's petty.) Don't escalate matters. Look for commonality in this dispute. What do both parties want? One thing is certain -- both parties want to be happy!
This is a challenging week in two major areas (perhaps three). Major power struggles at work are likely because old issues are back again and this creates resentment, finger-pointing and accusations. Perhaps someone left something undone? Or perhaps someone ignored warnings or advice and now the consequences are obvious. Maybe a faulty alarm system has led to vandalism or criminal activity? It could be anything. Similar criticisms related to your health might make you feel resentful. Even something to do with small pets could be an issue. This is not a time for laying blame. No matter what goes wrong, accept it and move on. No recriminations. Clean up things and make the best of what's left.
Parents should be vigilant this week. Power struggles related to children are likely. This is also an accident-prone time for your kids (no matter how old they are). Sports, romantic relationships, vacations, social occasions, and anything to do with the arts, the entertainment world, show business, and the hospitality industry are all areas where arguments, violence and criminal activity can occur. Yes, this is pretty heavy duty! However, if you are patient, tolerant and genuinely caring about the feelings of others, you can handle whatever arises. The minute you see an argument broiling, back off. Don't let loved ones drink and drive. (After all, friends don't let friends drive naked.)
Huge, hairy disputes might take place within your family or domestic scene. For starters, December is a dicey month with families. We know this. People have impossible expectations. At family gatherings, we deal with relatives we haven't seen for a while, and perhaps don't even like. Old wounds fester. Differences of values and opinions are obvious. It's tough to resist the urge to "improve" others or set them right. But what's the point of this? You can't change how others act or think. Not really. Just as they are not going to be able to change you. Not really. Just agree to disagree. Ironically, people are more alike than they are not. Everyone wants to be happy. (Be kind to relatives who are just a bit stupid.)
Oh boy! Did you know your sign rules law? All Librans are Philadelphia lawyers. This might be one of the reasons you're going to have big differences of opinions with relatives and siblings this week. Each party thinks they know what's best for the other. However, this is not casual difference of opinion. This is passionate stuff! People feel a lot is at stake. This pushy attitude could provoke an accident-prone frame of mind. Guard against accidents when driving, walking, jogging or travelling. Avoid dangerous, criminal areas. Avoid arguments that could become heated or violent. Travel delays and breakdowns are unavoidable. Dress warmly. Expect detours and long waits. (Carry a book.)
Nasty disputes about money, cash flow, and possibly even earnings might arise this week. You're a generous person but you also have a strong sense of justice. You see things in black-and-white terms. You're willing to pull your load but you expect the same of others. You don't want anyone taking advantage of you. Power struggles about possessions and money are likely now. This could even mean robbery or theft. Guard your possessions against loss and theft. Lock your car. Put your laptop in the trunk. Check that your home is safely locked. Avoid money arguments, at least this week. Do whatever you can to promote your own happy state of mind.
Arguments with partners close friends are unavoidable right now. Perhaps you're coming on like gangbusters, or perhaps they are? Issues might be so important to you right now that you feel you have to demand getting your own way. It's vital! But what if others disagree? (There are none so deaf as those who are wearing headphones.) If you are stubborn and inflexible, then arguments, even violent arguments, could ensue. You need this like a fish needs a bicycle. Ask yourself how important all this will be 20 years from now. Basically, you feel if you don't stand up for something, you'll lose. But losing your happiness is the real big loss.
Old issues with hidden enemies or people you can't quite reach might be frustrating for you now. You feel your hands are tied. Others might be saying or doing things behind your back and you feel helpless and furious. Let this go. In a year or so, you won't even care. This is old business and it might even be beyond your control. Try to make your decisions as if you only have six months to live. This can apply to any of us! If you think to yourself that you only have six months to live, you will really clarify what is important to you. And remember: a closed mouth gathers no feet.
Because you're born 50 years ahead of your time, and because you're bright, and because you care about planet Earth, and justice in society -- you're opinionated! And you're as stubborn as Taurus. This quality could lead to big squabbles with friends, especially in group situations. You might feel important issues are at stake and you have to defend the fate of the world! These power struggles will be nasty. They might be about old issues or with people from your past. ("Him again!") Group activities, especially competitive sports, are dicey. Guard against serious injuries and disputes. If you act with discipline, you'll have no regrets. Lord knows -- who wants regrets? ("I'll take two, they're small.")
Ruthless power struggles with authority figures are likely at this time. December can bring out the worst in us because of old family resentments. (Mom always liked you best.) Whatever happens, remind yourself that, essentially, you want to be happy. You always did want to be happy, and you always do want to be happy, and you hope to be happy in the future! Factoid. Therefore, why stir up any kind of hornet's nest, especially with parents or authority figures or bosses, where in the end you will be miserable and so will everyone else! Like, duh? Just remember what your goal is. You want to be happy. Fighting does not make happy. No way. Buy some dark chocolate and share it. That makes happy. (Ya think?)
