December is the month your home life finally moves. Saturn, your ruling planet, goes forward again on the 10th, so the lease, the move, or the family plan that stalled can start to move. From the 12th your joint money topics go into a slow review until April. Your own season starts on the solstice, the 21st, and the Full Moon on the 23rd focuses on your partner.
Capricorn December 2026 dates: Saturn (your ruler) turns forward again at 7 Aries (your 4th house) Dec 10. Mars in Virgo (your 9th house of travel and study) all month. Venus enters Scorpio (your 11th) Dec 4. Mercury enters Sagittarius (your 12th) Dec 6. New Moon at 16 Sagittarius (your 12th) Dec 8. Neptune turns forward again at 1 Aries (your 4th) Dec 12. Jupiter turns retrograde in Leo (your 8th) Dec 12. Sun enters Capricorn (your own 1st house) Dec 21. Full Moon supermoon at 2 Cancer (your 7th) Dec 23. Mercury enters Capricorn (your own 1st) Dec 25.
On the 4th Venus moves into Scorpio, your friendship and group corner, and warmer plans with friends start to show up. The same day Mars in your travel and study area makes a tense angle to Uranus in your daily routine area. A trip, a class, or a work shift may get rescheduled without warning, so keep the booking flexible. On the 6th Mercury enters Sagittarius, your behind-the-scenes corner, and your best thinking happens alone, with a notebook and a late coffee.
The New Moon on the 8th is a private fresh start. Begin the therapy sessions, the sleep reset, or the side project you keep to yourself for now. On the 10th Saturn, your ruling planet, turns forward again in your home and family corner after months of moving backward. The move, the renovation, or the family decision can finally go ahead. Neptune follows on the 12th. That evening Jupiter turns retrograde in your shared money corner, starting a review of about four months. Go over the debt plan and the tax paperwork slowly.
Use this week to act on the home plan while it is moving. Sign the lease, book the movers, or have the calm family talk you put off in the fall. On the 21st the Sun enters Capricorn at the winter solstice, the shortest day of the year in the Northern Hemisphere. Your birthday season begins. Get the haircut, update your profile photo, and say yes to the invitation that feels like the new you.
The Full Moon supermoon on the 23rd lands in your partnership corner. A partner, a best friend, or a business partner may make a clear move over the holidays. Listen fully before you answer. On the 25th Mercury enters Capricorn, and your head fills with 2027 plans. Write three goals on paper, then spend the last week of the year with the people who make you laugh.

Saturn, your chart ruler, turns forward again at 7 degrees 56 minutes Aries in your 4th house of home, family, roots, foundation, and the private base. Since July 26, Saturn has rebuilt your home life from the inside. After December 10, the slow work clicks forward. A move may finally lock in, the family conversation may resolve, the renovation may finish, the parent-and-child question may finally have an answer. As your ruler, this is one of the most personally significant moments of your year.
Neptune turns forward again at 1 degree 37 minutes Aries in the same 4th house on December 12. The dream of what kind of home you want, what kind of family structure is honest, what kind of private base you are building also starts moving forward. Saturn gives the bones; Neptune gives the picture. Both pointing forward in your 4th is one of the rarest home-defining windows of 2026.
The New Moon at 16 Sagittarius lands in your 12th house of retreat, behind-the-scenes work, sleep, dreams, and the unconscious. This is the quietest new beginning of your year. Start a hidden project, a piece of therapy work, a spiritual study, a sleep reset, or inner work nobody needs to see yet. Trust it as preparation for the bigger year.
The Full Moon at 2 Cancer lands in your 7th house of partnership, marriage, contracts, and the close one-on-one, opposite your new birthday-season Sun. It is a supermoon, so the relational call may run bigger than usual. A partner may make a clear move, a marriage decision may finalize, a one-on-one conversation may reach a real point of recognition.
Sun enters Capricorn on December 21, 2026 at the winter solstice. This opens your birthday season and the most personally charged solar moment of your year. With Saturn direct in your 4th and Mercury joining the Sun in your 1st on December 25, the last ten days of December are the year-ahead starting point for everything in 2027.
