Virgo
You like helping people, but the Moon exposes your limits and Mercury pushes you to face them. Stop bending because someone expects it. Stop saying yes when you want to scream no. Trying to please everyone creates a pattern that leaves you tired and resentful. Set clear boundaries. Hold them tight. Negotiate if needed. Stand firm in what matters and let others adjust for once.
While the Moon's departure from a playful and creative part of your chart today and return to your busy work sector won't tilt the scale from one side of life's fence to the other, it does speak to a need to have guardrails in place and especially when it comes to looking to the New Year. With the Sun in his first full day in a fun, playful, romantic and creatively charged part of your chart, Mars having returned last week and Venus in two days there is no danger of life becoming all work and no play. However, within a few weeks into 2026, that will start to change.
It is just as the Sun is settling into his first full day in your romantic sector, Mars still settling in after his return last week and with Venus, the planet of love just two days away, that the Moon is spending the final hours of its last visit for the year at a friendly aspect to Uranus, in retrograde motion in an adventurous part of your chart. This is something that every planet returning to your romantic sector between now and the end of next week will do before leaving, with a mix of nostalgia, romance, passion and adventure in the air today taste of things to come.
Pushing yourself forward makes you appear overbearing and at times rather unpleasant, causing problems with your love life or making it tough to get to meet and know new people. It is apparent that others find your craving for recognition a bit disconcerting. Reconsider your conduct and the impact it has on others.
At the same time that the playful, creative and adventurous side of life’s fence is not only starting to power up but will continue to over the holiday period, the Moon returns for its last visit to your work sector for the year. While this might mean putting some guardrails in place, the Moon returns with a chance to keep your finger on the pulse in a way that allows you to work smarter in the lead up to Christmas, while giving you a chance to start looking to the future.
As Venus, the planet of money continues to separate from a friendly aspect to Eris, the warrior princess of the cosmos in your financial sector that peaked over the weekend, this is helping to reawaken your motivation and fighting spirit, but in a way that is less about the details and more about the awakening itself. You will have more insight when the Moon returns to your financial sector later in the week, on the other side of Christmas.
Your need to push yourself forward is a sign of uneasiness. Find your inner balance again with a completely different fitness regime you’re able to enjoy. Make sure to make time for your hobbies and preferred recreational activities. Avoid team sports, as you’re so demanding you’ll risk making yourself unpopular.
