Horoscope For Today: Sunday, December 29, 2024

Early this morning, the moon in Sagittarius cruises only slightly ahead of Mercury, reflecting the collective desire to speak our minds about hot-button issues that are important to us: religion, academia, immigration, and cultural diversity.

Sagittarius often launches its arrow without thinking about the potential consequences, and it is perhaps wise to exercise a little caution right now while emotions are running high and we have never been more politically polarized. It’s not a good day to sound off on social media unless you’re prepared to take the heat.

On the other hand, it’s an excellent time to emotionally and practically prepare for what’s to come in 2025, and to put your thoughts into writing to ensure they actually manifest. Mentally project yourself into the new year: buy a new planner as a late Christmas gift to yourself, gather a group of your closest friends to make vision boards, or simply write a list of dreams and goals you hope to achieve in the coming year.

At 5:31 AM EST, the moon makes a sextile to fierce, feminine Black Moon Lilith in Libra at 20°. While the moon is often characterized as the docile, nurturing, and empathetic side of femininity, Lilith represents the righteously angry feminist who rises up against the societal structures that hold her back.

Occasionally Black Moon Lilith ventures into evil or destructive territory, and it is certainly possible that we will hear about more killer moms and Angels of Mercy on true crime podcasts in the new year. But while Lilith has been in the sign of Libra over the past several months, it has heralded sweeping legislative changes related to women and women’s issues, and this momentum seems unlikely to slow down.

With the influence of the quieter and softer moon, today might be a turning point in which conservative and liberal women can see past their religious and cultural differences to fight for a common goal. With so much Sagittarian energy in the cosmos, there is nothing that will hold back the righteous anger of the woman scorned.

The critical moment arrives at 3:02 PM, when the moon makes a sextile to Venus in Aquarius at 25°. The archetypal symbolism is clear: this is a group of women coming together en masse to fight a perceived injustice. And they might just win, since the voices of the many drown out the voices of the few.

However, it’s important to keep in mind that by 6:34 PM, the moon will be squaring off against Neptune in Pisces at 27°, ensuring that misinformation will be rampant, whether through digital manipulation, AI, or outright suppression of the truth. This illusory energy is highly seductive and may promise easy answers where none exist.

As the day comes to a close, so does the moon’s transit through Sagittarius. It ingresses into Capricorn at 11:38 PM, setting the tone for the new moon at 9° tomorrow.

How can you expect today to play out for you individually? Read on. For the more accurate forecast, use your rising sign.

Aries

The moon in your ninth house encourages your passion for religious, philosophical, and ideological causes, and when it makes an early-morning sextile to Black Moon Lilith in your seventh house, you can expect female romantic partners and close friends to indulge you as you step into your characteristically fierce activist role. Allow them to come along for the ride with you, even if it goes against your independent nature. This afternoon, the moon’s sextile to Venus in your eleventh house sets the tone for a powerful disruption of the established status quo. By this evening, however, the moon’s square with Neptune in your twelfth house warns of misinformation and censorship. If you feel yourself falling into despair, thinking that all you accomplished has been for nothing, don’t worry too much: the moon’s ingress into your tenth house late tonight ensures that your contributions to the cause will be highlighted when you wake up tomorrow morning, for better or for worse.

Taurus

As the moon transits your eighth house, your attention is focused on uncovering the truth regarding sexual taboos, fraud, debt, and other things people prefer to keep hidden. Early in the morning, it makes a sextile to Black Moon Lilith in your sixth house, invigorating female coworkers to take a stand against injustice in the workplace. This afternoon, the moon sextiles Venus in your tenth house, giving you and your colleagues a platform to speak truth to power. This evening, the moon squares off against Neptune in your eleventh house, potentially driving a wedge between you and your broader social network, who may not understand the aims of your cause or why it is so important. Tonight, the moon’s ingress into your ninth house fills you with a sense of optimism and faith for the coming few days.

Gemini

The moon moving through your seventh house draws attention to your closest relationships: romantic partners, best friends, open enemies, and people who fall somewhere on the spectrum of all three. There is no love without hate, after all. When, early this morning, the moon makes a sextile to Black Moon Lilith in your fifth house, your desire for romantic and sensual closeness is amplified. Those in happy relationships might find themselves tempted to stray, while others will explore their sexuality in unique and novel ways. This afternoon, when the moon forms a sextile with Venus in your ninth house, the women in your spiritual or religious tradition might blindside you with an intervention: either they really don’t like your partner specifically, or they’re trying to convince you to go boy sober in order to reach enlightenment through celibacy. Don’t rush into anything; no one is demanding you run to the convent immediately. Taking a break from toxic relationships might be a good idea, though: when the moon squares off against Neptune in your tenth house, you might find you’re being misrepresented by scorned exes on social media. And tonight, once the moon has ingressed into your eighth house, you might be able to see things as they truly are, without the rose-colored glasses blinding you.

Cancer

As the moon cruises through your sixth house, you are feeling at your most productive, willing to do the mundane tasks no one else wants to take on—but early this morning, the moon’s sextile to Black Moon Lilith in your fourth house might bother female relatives who find your domestic instincts politically inconvenient. Be mindful that at this point in history, emotional reactions can be irrational and are very often reflective of unhealed pain in another. That is to say, your 4B sister might be bitter that you are not as zealous as she is. This afternoon, the moon’s sextile to Venus in your eighth house triggers many, many mother wounds around the world; if you are surrounded by women who have been hurt, you may be able to help them heal simply by listening to their stories and holding space for them. When the moon squares Neptune in your ninth house, your religious, cultural, and ideological blind spots are likely to be triggered. Tonight, the moon moves into your seventh house, encouraging you to lean on your partner or your closest friends for moral support after an emotionally draining day.

Leo

The moon in your fifth house reflects your fun-loving, free-spirited mental state, one in which your creativity and sensuality are at an all-time high. The early-morning sextile to Black Moon Lilith in your third gives you a powerful capacity to speak truth, and your natural charisma lends itself well to activism, if you wish to engage in anything of the sort today. In the afternoon, the moon forms a sextile to Venus in your seventh house, kicking close friends and female partners right into action. Though you might prefer to spend the day at home making out on the couch, your calling today might be higher—and for those of you in same-sex relationships, your love itself is an act of resistance. The moon’s square-off with Neptune in your eighth house will likely reveal sexual or financial deception, but don’t react with too much anger until you have all the facts. Late tonight, the moon’s ingress into your sixth house puts you in a more hardworking state of mind. You’ll wake up tomorrow ready for whatever the day throws at you.

Virgo

As the moon cruises through your fourth house, your focus is on your family and your household, while the sextile to Black Moon Lilith in your second house that occurs this morning might force you out of your cozy relaxation time as a female friend or lover requires financial help. When the moon sextiles Venus in your sixth house this afternoon, you might also choose to join a workplace protest against unfair wages for women, empowered by your innate sense of justice, which you tend to prefer to pursue with a protective partner by your side. You’re powerful on your own, but a force to be reckoned with when you’re working in tandem with someone you love. Tonight, the moon forms a square with Neptune in your seventh house, causing you to doubt your partner’s or best friend’s intentions, whether they have given you reason to or not. But in the late hours, the moon ingresses into your fifth house, liberating you from the shackles of your commitments and allowing you to just let loose and have some fun. Unless you have real cause for alarm, this is a good time to trust that your loved ones have your back.

Libra

The moon’s transit through your third house is rejuvenating your passion for your local community, and if you can reach them through powerful communication, that’s all the better. This morning the moon’s sextile to Black Moon Lilith in your first house makes you an intimidatingly confident orator, someone capable of holding their own as they fight courageously for justice no matter the cost. This afternoon, the moon’s sextile to Venus in your fifth house attracts casual romantic attention as well as the influence of children upon your overall message; you may end the day with a few new prospects who are equally attracted to and intimidated by you. This evening, the moon’s square with Neptune in your sixth house creates confusion about your job status: some of you will be unsure whether you have one to return to, while others will receive offers of promotion that appear too good to be true. When the moon moves into your fourth house tonight, you’ll have a renewed sense of appreciation for the safety and comfort of your domestic space.

Scorpio

The moon makes its way through your second house, emphasizing the importance of putting your money where your mouth is, and when the sextile to Black Moon Lilith in your twelfth takes place early this morning, you may be shaken out of your complacency by a powerful subconscious drive to make a change. On the other hand, a female lover or close friend who is hospitalized, imprisoned, or struggling with mental illness might be the catalyst that gets you off your couch and into the streets to fight for justice. Hidden female enemies are almost definitely going to make themselves known today, but when the moon sextiles Venus in your fourth house, you can anticipate support from your family, even if it’s only in private. Tonight, when the moon squares off with Neptune in your fifth house, you may doubt the sincerity of a casual lover you’ve been seeing—or face a pregnancy scare. Much later, the moon ingresses into your third house, giving you a boost of communicative power that you can use to your advantage when you wake up tomorrow.

Sagittarius

As the moon cruises through your first house, you feel excessively attractive, confident, and powerful, as though the world is your oyster. And with the sextile to Black Moon Lilith in your ninth this morning, it can be, if you are bold enough to take your convictions public and fight for justice alongside female students, academics, and religious leaders. Open your heart to working across the aisle with women whose cultural values might differ drastically from your own. If you have a single issue uniting you, it might be enough. This afternoon, the moon sextiles Venus in your third house, giving your local community of women the power to raise their voices and make significant change. This evening, the moon’s square with Neptune in your fourth suggests that your family might be disillusioned or confused by your choices. But later tonight, the moon’s ingress into your second house promises financial rewards for your bravery.

Capricorn

The moon’s transit through your twelfth house opens your mind to intuitive insights and enables you to work through subconscious fears, and the sextile to Black Moon Lilith in your tenth house gives you the mic as you stand for the vulnerable and traumatized women of the world. You will almost certainly be supported by influential political leaders and dynamic game-changers who respect your confident and self-assured approach. When the moon forms a sextile with Venus in your second house this afternoon, similarly, expect donations and gifts from affluent women who wish to help you reach your goals. Tonight there is a clear vibe shift: when the moon squares off with Neptune in your third house, your words will undoubtedly be misconstrued, rather intentionally or not. Stay the course and remember that once the moon ingresses into your first house late tonight, you will have a chance to redeem yourself.

Aquarius

The moon courses through your eleventh house, broadening your social network and giving you a strong platform, while the sextile to Black Moon Lilith in your ninth sends women of all religious, cultural, and philosophical stripes into your sphere. The power you collectively wield is formidable. This afternoon, the moon sextiles Venus in your first house, offering you a fated, karmic opportunity to step into a leadership role that will inspire the women both in your local community and in broader society. This evening, when the moon squares Neptune in your second house, your earnings or income might be scrutinized; if you’ve been passing yourself off as a noble humanitarian while secretly pocketing GoFundMe donations, you’ll likely be called out for it. If, on the other hand, you’ve been keeping your side of the street clean, naysayers will attempt to uncover evidence where there isn’t any. Much later tonight, the moon moves into your twelfth house, giving you a chance to process any emotional trauma sustained over the course of the day.

Pisces

With the moon passing through your tenth house, your social standing is highlighted, for better or for worse. The sextile with Black Moon Lilith in your eighth house promises that women around you will see you as a trustworthy person capable of keeping their taboo secrets related to sexuality and debt. Allow yourself to be a safe space for the marginalized. Listen to the stories of women who have struggled in the sex industry, battled addiction, and survived abusive relationships. This afternoon, when the moon sextiles Venus in your twelfth house, women will undeniably open up to you about their deepest and darkest secrets. You possess the intuitive knowledge of what to say to help them, and the compassion required to navigate such territory. Tonight, when the moon squares off with Neptune in your first house, your reputation might be slandered or photos of you may be doctored to push a specific narrative. Hold fast to what you know to be true and don’t let the bastards grind you down. Late tonight, the moon enters your eleventh house, opening the doors of dialogue to many people on social media and in your wider network. They will soon see your true intentions.
