December 2025 Astrology Forecast: Malum Prohibitum vs. Malum In Se

There’s a time for rules and a time for rule breaking. Themes of justice, morality and righteousness have surrounded us this year. We end 2025 with the Winter Solstice and hope for clarity in the coming months.

Aries: Game Master

Taking your place at the table, you queue up your past campaigns. Taking stock of the legends you’ve written, reread your proudest exploits. What of the rescued damsels and the vanquished foes? The books are filled to the margins, but what have you done lately? It might be time to reset the game.

Taurus: Faith Through Feeling

You hear echolalia in the distance, recognizing a familiar sound in the voice. This is a winter of future places. Timelines and unlived memories are pulling you through. Trust your belly’s deep knowingness. Be at peace while approaching the nearing horizon.

Gemini: White Noise

Feedback rings in your ears. Someone is testing you, pushing you for a challenge — hopefully not a showdown. Better double check what you said. They will use your words against you, times two. Can you play coy or will you need a do-over?

Cancer: A Red String Tied Tightly

The downward fall is an upward leap into the unknown and unlived. Who says you can’t go this way? It’s your path through a self-built maze. Follow your notes along the way. Partners may try to guide you, but you’re pulled by your true north. You’re fated and destined to the mystery.

Leo: Get To Work

This has been a year of unexpected change: career crisis, medical bills, changes in funding. Is your job fulfilling or just a means to an end? Is it time to rewrite that resume yet? Stop filling in the time with escapism and get back in touch with your true calling.

Virgo: What Are You Waiting For?

Your invisible sidekick is growing restless. Is it time to launch yet? He waits next to you as you research late into the night, gathering proof on your laptop and creating your thesis. There’s no more second guessing yourself — it’s time to take on the challenge.

Libra: Judgement Calls

It’s your turn to decide: Who stays and who goes? Are you fair in your observations or do you tilt the scales? Projections and reflections can be painful to realize. Recognize when you’ve acted out and hurt others. Work to represent the truth with a pure heart and you’ll be at peace.

Scorpio: Personal Inventory

It’s time to do a S.W.O.T. analysis on yourself: strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats. This is probably an everyday unconscious Scorpio exercise, but you need to consciously prepare for 2026. It will be an important growth year for you and it will be coming in fast.

Sagittarius: Playing a Role

Authenticity is the key to Sagittarius charm. You may feel the need to play a little politics this month. Do you coach or consult others? Hold back on your sharpest truth arrows or they may ricochet back in your direction. Stick to the totally truthful and completely necessary.

Capricorn: Grain of Salt

Be conscientious of your words this month. Even if you’re speaking the truth, it may not land well. Some words can lead to personal undoing. Remember the power of your earthiness — actions speak louder than words. Focus on what you can control and let the rest go.

Aquarius: We Don’t Need Another Hero

You may be disappointed this month by someone who broke a promise. Is someone pressuring you to go against your better judgement? Play it cool and keep your mouth shut. This has been a year of upheaval and you don’t need the extra drama.

Pisces: No Regrets

It’s Friday night. Do you care? You’ve got a point to prove, spinning in circles with the party lights on. It’s a dizzy month, if you want it to be. You might have a fear of missing out, but you’re just not sure what you’re afraid of missing.
