December 2022 horoscopes: Topsy-turvy times ahead

We hate to break it to you, but if you’re looking for a calm, predictable month, you’re probably not going to get it. 2022 will go out with a bang, and honestly we never should’ve expected otherwise. Find out what this will mean for your sign:

Sagittarius

November 22nd - December 21st
There’s a thin line between love and hate. And though the passion in your love life may be burning hot right now, that heat can just as easily burn you. Though you should expect some romantic ups and downs throughout the month, communication will be the key deciding factor in what happens between you. Focusing on understanding and being understood will help keep things running smoothly.


Capricorn

December 22nd - January 19th
Expect to be highly reactive this month as certain ongoing disagreements with important people take center stage in your life. Typically you’re more rational than emotional, but this month will hit you right in your weak spots. And it will be hard not to lash out. Commit to talking things out slowly over time, and it’ll get better. In the meantime, find someone you can vent to on the side to help you get through the rough spots.

Aquarius

January 20th - February 18th
You might be the only cool-headed person in a particularly dramatic situation this month. Those around you may quickly lose their perspective due to the stressful nature of the situation, and you may feel pressured to step forward as the voice of reason. Though the drama may be time-consuming, you are also likely to be recognized for the logical powerhouse you are. Your contributions are important and very much needed by the people in your life.

Pisces

February 19th - March 20th
You will still have some extra luck coming your way from the universe this month, blessing your endeavors. It’s a good thing, too, because there are definitely still going to be challenges that will force you to rethink your strategy before moving forward with your plans. You can get a lot of extra help this month by seeking the wisdom of others—especially those who have expertise in areas of life that you’re not as well-versed in.

Aries

March 21st - April 19th
This month will call for you to restructure some aspects of your life. And making those changes may reveal that some other parts of your life aren’t as solid as you thought they were. That’s okay, because pretty soon it’s going to be your time to shine again, and you won’t regret having built a firm foundation by making the changes you have to make now. This month will give you glimpses of the big things to come and stoke your excitement for the future.

Taurus

April 20th - May 20th
The first half of this month is going to be downright confusing. Expect to get pulled into drama that doesn’t even make sense to you. The ups and downs going on around you will disturb your need for peace, and it may make you want to shut down and back away from some of your relationships. While this is a perfectly fine way to create the peace and quiet you so deeply need, don’t forget that underneath the drama may be real pain for some of your loved ones. Hang in there—things will get better towards the end of the month.

Gemini

May 21st - June 20th
What is reality anyway? That will be the main question on your mind this month as you try to work through a kerfuffle in an important relationship. You and the one in question may have very different views of what the truth of the situation is, what’s important, and how to move through the conflict you’re facing. Though a tidy resolution may not be possible within the month like you would prefer, if you find a balance between flexibility and sticking to your values, you’ll slowly make your way there.

Cancer

June 21st -July 22nd
Deep insecurities may come to the surface in your relationships this month, and it may be hard for you to communicate about them. And though you want to open your heart to your significant other and/or trusted people in your life right now, it may feel like others are so wrapped up in their own lives that there’s no space for you to share. Speaking up and asking for what you need may feel scary, but it will help you create the safe space and deep connections you so deeply desire.

Leo

July 23rd - August 22nd
Friends who become lovers, lovers who become friends, and both lovers and friends who become neither are likely the themes this month, as you face major shifts your relationships. Though some of these changes may come as the result of dramatic disagreements or sudden changes of heart, they are likely to reveal to you where you really want your long-term commitments to be. Those who aren’t in it for the long haul will likely exit at this time, and it’s for the best.

Virgo

August 23rd - September 22nd
It will probably seem like there’s no area of your life that’s free from drama this month, which may feel overwhelming. Everybody will have their own story about what’s going on, and because of your more facts-driven, logical nature, you may feel destabilized by the idea that there could be different subjective experiences of the same events. Disengaging from the drama as much as you can will really help you center yourself. The end of the month will bring an easier energy.

Libra

September 23rd - October 22nd
This may be an exciting month in your love life! Most of the love interests you’re pursuing are interesting, intelligent types, which is mentally stimulating. But going from that mental connection to a physical connection may be a tad rocky, as you’re likely to be less compatible physically than you are on other levels. You’ll find your way forward by being open to experimentation and changes of direction.

Scorpio

October 23rd - November 21st
This month may be a bit frustrating for you. As a person who is always searching for the truth, it can be incredibly frustrating when you find out that important people in your life are playing fast and loose with the facts. Learning that somebody close to you isn’t being completely honest may frustrate you, but rather than attacking them about it, maybe you can approach the situation with curiosity. That will help you come to a better understanding of why they’re acting the way they are.
