Your Weekly Horoscope Says Christmas Will Be Twinkling With Full Moon Energy

Your horoscope for the week of December 24 to 30 says Christmas is filled with beautiful ups and downs, as well as magical twists and turns.

It all starts off with the stabilizing Capricorn sun forming a sextile with grounded Saturn on Christmas Eve. This will give you the down-to-earth vibe needed to get all your shopping done and all your presents wrapped. And as romantic Venus forms a trine with enchanting Neptune on Christmas Day, you’ll have no problem believing in Santa Clause and getting into the spirit this year. With a full moon in Cancer—the zodiac sign of the moon’s rulership—arriving on December 26, the otherworldly energy doesn’t end the moment all nine of his reindeer head back to the North Pole. Prepare for major revelations to unfold under mistletoe.

The week between Christmas and New Year’s is always kind of strange, almost like a no-man’s land as you wait between two major holidays. This year, the energy might feel even weirder than usual, thanks to thoughtful Mercury—which still happens to be retrograde—squaring off with disorienting Neptune on the 27th. This could lead to wishful thinking and paranoia, especially if you have too much time on your hands. Luckily, the sun’s trine with Jupiter in Taurus on the same day will remind you to stay positive and enjoy the abundance you’re afforded. Just remember not to let silly disagreements turn into full blown arguments, as Mercury retrograde will also form a conjunction with aggressive Mars, putting everyone in the mood to snap at each other.

The listless feelings continue toward the end of the week, as Mars squares off with dazed Neptune on December 28, increasing the lethargic energy. Instead of spiraling, get lost in something fun and out-of-this-world, like a fantasy novel or a video game. With Jupiter retrograde coming to an end on December 30, it’s clear that 2023 is ending with an unexpected and last-minute gift under your tree.
