MOON VOID OF COURSE
When the Moon is about to change signs and will no longer make any aspect (connection) to the other planets before touring the next sign, it is considered “void of course.” The Moon’s potency weakens during these times, which can result in diminished success or satisfaction. If optimum results are your aim, wait until the Moon fuels up again to take action. Timing is everything!

AQUARIUS (Jan. 21-Feb. 18)
December will throw you into a social whirlwind. In fact, you could be introduced to a whole new crowd or a new lifestyle, or find yourself participating in ethnic traditions you haven’t previously experienced. You’ll thrive on the liveliness and intensity, but past Dec. 22, it’s time to cozy it up.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)
While you may want to escape, the rest of the world expects you to show up, to be “on,” and to handle everything that’s thrown at you. Professional or parental demands pile up through to Dec. 20. On Dec. 11, Jupiter and Pluto bring a major chapter to culmination, but you’ll need extra time to process, regroup, and heal.
ARIES (March 21–April 19)
This month is sure to be the most memorable yet! Whatever you are “into” or “up to,” expect to be completely gripped by it. (That’s an understatement!) Financial extravagance and more comings and goings are to be expected. Dec. 10–20, watch for HUGE news or events, windfalls, opportunity, and added fame!
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
The stars put a major focus on your finances. Profit margins are sure to be way up. These same stars also suggest a heftier-than-usual debt load. Intimate relationships can experience a wider divide (perhaps even straining to a breaking point); past Dec. 22, two hearts may again beat as one.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20)
Whether they tug on your heartstrings, cash, energy, or patience, people will take a huge chunk out of you this holiday season. Still, you have an ample supply to give. Dec. 11 and 16–19 bring abundance. Choose luxury Dec. 31; you deserve the best. Month-end brings contentment.
CANCER (June 21-July 22)
On the job, battling your health or diet, or trying not to let loved ones down, you certainly have your work cut out for you this month! Long hours and daily demands make it nearly impossible to find the even keel; relief will come after the full moon Dec. 23.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)
Jupiter and Pluto turn you into the biggest kid on the block. Showtime and party-time keep you going strong all month. Performers, retailers, travellers, and lovers hit solid gold, especially Dec. 10–12 and 16–19. By the full moon (Dec. 23), it will be time to switch gears and slow it down.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
It seems you are the host with the most, like it or not! Sagittarius stars shine a hotspot on catering duties (professional and personal) and family politics. You’ll go out of your way to be a crowd-pleaser—in fact, you’ll outdo yourself! Dec. 23–31 brings sweet reward.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
Attraction-planet Venus will continue to light a good fire through this month and next. Indulge, spend, get around, sell like crazy, but try to pace yourself. It’s a max-out month—unbelievably so! Dec. 8–21 will feel like a marathon. Travel or travellers make the holiday extra-special.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
Synchronicity works like a charm Dec. 6 and 7. Your openheartedness and generosity can pile up the joy—not only for those you gift or serve, but for you, too. Your extravagance extends to spending, of course—it comes, it goes! Dec. 16–18, something or someone special appears.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 20)
No plane or pair of skis will do for you what the stars are about to do. Jupiter makes a very special once-in-a-lifetime connection to Pluto on Dec. 11. With such an incredible bonfire lit, you may spontaneously combust! Your future has arrived! Dec. 6–11 and 14–20 can be truly amazing.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 21-Jan. 20)
You will be extremely aware of emotional undercurrents, and you’ll be even more aware of the deep rumblings within your own heart. Secret Santa is one of your joyous alter egos. When it comes to helping the needy, the spirit of the season is not lost on you. Dec. 23–31 will make you feel especially blessed.
