Cosmic Insights – December 8, 2025 December 7, 2025

By Veronica G. Hartman

The celestial week of December 8, 2025, begins with the Sun rising in philosophical Sagittarius, illuminating an opportunity to rise up out of doubt and despair, to perceive events of the past in a new light, and to celebrate a new era of optimism and spiritual rebirth.  However, Jupiter is the CEO of Sagittarius and is retrograde in emotionally sensitive Cancer, with an expansive need to withdraw from celebrating as it reluctantly engages with the overt actions of Mars in Sagittarius to promote holiday events and activities that feel hollow and lack the true meaning of the season. Uranus, retrograde in Taurus, is also seeking a calm refuge from the actions of Mars in Sagittarius to refuse over-the-top festivities that drain the energy from daily routines.

Mars in Sagittarius, Jupiter retrograde in Cancer, and Uranus retrograde in Taurus are involved in a yod configuration, suggesting the potentiality of fated events, as Jupiter and Uranus conspire to deliver an attitude adjustment regarding appropriate boundaries about values and feelings to Mars in Sagittarius.

Meanwhile, Moon is moving through warm-hearted Leo, reflecting an opportunity to transform emotional drama trauma with genuine forgiveness, love, and gratitude for the lessons learned in life as an evolution of consciousness.  The Moon in Leo is also in a celebratory mood as it interacts favorably with Venus, Mars, and the Sun in Sagittarius, before it is dampened by Mercury in Scorpio, Saturn and Neptune retrograde in Pisces, as well as Uranus retrograde in Taurus! So enjoy it while you can!

In the early hours of December 10th, the Moon travels into conscious Virgo to communicate secrets of the soul with friends or like-minded others to clear the mind of emotional feelings, which could become a catalyst for expansive actions leading to emotional chaos. Although the first interaction of the Moon in Virgo is with Pluto in friendly but detached Aquarius, others may feel uncomfortable with the sharing of personal information.

Minutes later, Neptune moves forward in elusive Pisces, so the sharing of personal information may be reconsidered, as Neptune in Pisces is more comfortable with being seen but not heard.  Although it is a highly significant time to let sleeping dogs lie, forgiving self and others to heal the past and states of victimization through January 2026 through the modalities of art, music, spirituality, hypnosis, and meditation before Neptune leaves Pisces for the next 165 years!

Shortly after lunch, Mercury in Scorpio opposes Uranus retrograde in Taurus, illuminating the cooperation needed to balance relationships, as secrets may have been revealed unpredictably,  stirring up a hornet’s nest of actions as galloping horses bolt for unknown horizons in an aftermath of shock and betrayal.

Before the day ends, Venus in Sagittarius challenges the North Node in Pisces to confess what has been hidden to heal significant relationships. While it may seem like innocent motivation, don’t bet on it. Venus is also squared off with the Moon in Virgo, determined to get to the bottom of relationship issues for a thorough analysis to corroborate evidence already received.

On the afternoon of December 11th, Mercury joins Venus,  Mars, and the Sun in Sagittarius for some mental relief from the past few weeks of intense suspicion relevant to trust issues. Mercury in Sagittarius is more eager for mental adventures instead of investigations and inquisitions, so be ready to grab your cowboy hat, boots, and party invitations for some rowdy fun during the next few weeks.

On the mid-morning of December 12th, the Moon heads into relationship-oriented Libra to kick up the emotional dust as it initially engages with Mercury in Sagittarius and Pluto in Aquarius to finish up the workday quickly so it can get this party started!

On December 13, the Moon in Libra experiences some emotional challenges, with Jupiter retrograde in emotionally vulnerable Cancer; otherwise, the weekend looks positive for good times with friends in low places!
