Weekly horoscope for December 8 – December 14: What the stars have in store for every zodiac sign revealed

OUR much-loved astrologer Meg sadly died last year but her column will be kept alive by her friend and protégée Maggie Innes.

ARIES

MAR 21 - APR 20

Those dreams you’ve been saving up in secret can come out as Neptune turns direct again – and plunge you into an emotional whirlpool. 

Yet you also have Saturn steadiness on your side, and the ability to suss out what’s real. 

This can create a week of personal firsts.

Thinking long-term can often be outside Aries’ comfort zone, but now you can do it so well. 

Luck goes for gold.

TAURUS

APR 21 - MAY 21

Your feelings and instincts about friends are super-sharp – so do make those calls, don’t put them off any longer. 

Words carry weight this week, but actions speak the loudest. 

Your passion self is ready for adventure, and old chains of habit are snapping. 

If you’re single, this can find you making not just the first move, but all the moves, and feeling great. 

Luck links “A” to “B”.

GEMINI

MAY 22 - JUNE 21

Maybe you’ve been chasing an ambition that looks right, but doesn’t feel right – this week you can take stock and set yourself some fresh goals.

Mars makes all kinds of conversations hum with hidden meanings, and this can draw a tempting Aquarius closer, minute by minute. 

What luck means to you is influenced by Jupiter’s retrograde, as you realise preparation plays a key part in outcomes - and get to work.

CANCER

JUNE 22 - JULY 22

Your deep caring nature is so loving and giving – but the new path of Neptune reminds you to leave room in your own life for yourself. 

If people or pressure feels overwhelming, you can take a pause and find a better way. 

But no one else will do this for you, so start thinking about action now.

Mars makes you brave in love, but also proud - do seek balance. 

LEO

JULY 23 - AUG 23

You are often so busy and active you forget to sit and savour life – making time for this, this week, can quiet so many questions that are buzzing in your mind. 

So you realise what seems a one-way street is actually two-way travel. 

In love?  Take a risk, take off that cool mask. 

Single? Choose the date that makes you feel good, whatever anyone else says. 

Luck circles “31”. 

VIRGO

AUG 24 - SEPT 22

Your sector of marriage and long-term love and life contracts may not feel straightforward right now – but the influence of Neptune fills you with insight. 

So you see the truth, even if it’s not what you expect – and the rest of your chart helps you act on it.

The moon’s emotional pull keeps you loyal at work, but by the weekend, it’s time to follow your own star.  

LIBRA

SEPT 23 - OCT 23

You’ve been considering a career or other major change for some time – this week, a plan starts to form. 

Take your time, tick all the boxes carefully, to keep your naturally go-getting energy focused and strong. 

If you’re in love, spend simple time together, reinforcing what security means to both of you. 

Single? An old acquaintance reappears – and new attraction is hard to resist.

SCORPIO

OCT 24 - NOV 22

You start the week with the richest imagination in the zodiac and this gets stronger every day. 

So do get story, script or simply life plots recorded before the details start to dissolve. 

There’s something special there, and you’re ready to share it. 

If you’re driven to take the lead at work, or home, Mars is involved – but always remember ultimately you alone decide whether to move, or stay. 

SAGITTARIUS

NOV 23 - DEC 21

Spending more time on, and paying more attention to, your home is Neptune’s gift. 

If there’s a To Do List, practical or emotional, you know you’ve been avoiding, you can face it now. 

Your personal sun optimism is strong, but Mercury’s retrograde can muddle up words – so do fine-tune any important speeches in advance.

Patience in money matters can pay off. 

The luck factor chooses from a picture display.

CAPRICORN

DEC 22 - JAN 20

It’s a challenge for you to put deep feelings into words, but the planets are behind you this week, so it’s time to keep trying. 

If you’re single, this can include putting your name on, or back on, a daring love-list. 

Venus boosts confidence, so you find ways to navigate a partnership maze, and you are also gifted in cash-saving planning, perhaps linked to a special celebration. 

AQUARIUS

JAN 21 - FEB 18

Less analysis and more instinct around money matters may not feel your natural Aquarius state – but this week your chart gives you great intuition about what will and won’t work. 

Do tune in to this. 

In love terms, as Mars and Jupiter both reverse, you’re ready to rip up the romance rule book.  #

A cuddly Taurus, recently introduced, will be thrilled! 

Lucky dates end in “8”. 

PISCES

FEB 19 - MAR 20

Your ruler Neptune is back on track in your own sign and you can resume a slow but steady path towards personal fulfilment. 

But first, do check in with your deepest self this is still what you want. 

You don’t have to finish, just because you started. 

Regular family routines, perhaps with a festive flavour, may be rewritten overnight by Jupiter – but this can be a surprise success.
