Leap of FaithOptimism and faith in ourselves are restored in December, pushing each sign to make tremendous strides in creating a life that matches an ideal image. Jupiter’s luck and abundance has been ramping up since early November when the planet of blessings moved into home sign Sagittarius. A brilliant new moon in risk-taking Sagittarius on December 7 links to Jupiter, further magnifying the planet’s influence of expansion and positive growth. Keep the faith and focus on channeling this optimistic can-do energy into conquering specific goals.

The potential to turn dreams into reality is powerfully palpable for every sign this month, as long as you believe in yourself. Conviction behind our ideals only grows after December 6, when Mercury stations direct before swiftly moving into philosophical Sagittarius on December 12.

Part of believing you can change your life for the better is a willingness to purge past patterns and bad habits sinking your physical and mental health. A full moon in nurturing Cancer will shine light on these darker tendencies on December 22, urging us to work hard to bring an end to anything responsible for destabilizing our mind, body, or soul. Firebrand Mars charges triumphantly into home sign Aries on December 31, motivating us with the drive and stamina to tackle 2019 as a better version of ourselves.
