December opens in your birthday season, and the New Moon in your sign on the 8th is your fresh start for 2027. On the 10th and 12th Saturn and Neptune turn forward in your romance and creativity area, so a slow love story or creative project can finally move. Jupiter, your ruling planet, starts a four-month review of your travel and study plans on the 12th. After the 21st your focus turns to money, both yours and what you share.
Sagittarius December 2026 dates: Sun in Sagittarius (your own 1st house) Dec 1 to 21. Mars in Virgo (your 10th house of career) all month. Venus enters Scorpio (your 12th) Dec 4. Mercury enters Sagittarius (your 1st) Dec 6. New Moon at 16 Sagittarius (your own 1st) Dec 8. Saturn turns forward again at 7 Aries (your 5th) Dec 10. Neptune turns forward again at 1 Aries (your 5th) Dec 12. Jupiter (your ruler) turns retrograde in Leo (your 9th) Dec 12. Sun enters Capricorn (your 2nd) Dec 21. Full Moon supermoon at 2 Cancer (your 8th) Dec 23. Mercury enters Capricorn (your 2nd) Dec 25.
Mars spends all of December in your career zone, so this is a visible, busy month at work. On the 4th Mars makes a tense angle to Uranus in your partnership zone, and a partner or a client may change plans without warning. Handle it directly. The same day Venus moves into the private part of your chart, and some feelings stay behind the scenes for now. On the 6th Mercury enters your sign and you find the words for what you want next year.
On the 8th the New Moon falls in Sagittarius, your most personal fresh start of the year. Write down who you want to be in 2027, in one sentence, and keep it on your phone. On the 10th Saturn turns forward again after months of moving backward in the part of your chart about dating and play, and Neptune follows on the 12th. That evening Jupiter, your ruling planet, turns retrograde in your travel and study zone, starting a review that lasts into April 2027.
With Saturn moving forward, fun feels lighter again. Sign up for the dance class, finish the painting, or say yes to a second date. Jupiter’s review is a good time to look again at the big trip, the course, or the book idea before you put money into it. On the 21st the Sun enters Capricorn at the winter solstice, the shortest day of the year, and your attention moves to income and savings.
The Full Moon on the 23rd is a supermoon in your shared money and intimacy zone. A talk about the joint account, a tax question, or a deeper conversation with your partner may come up around the holidays. Keep it calm and slow. On the 25th Mercury enters Capricorn, which helps with 2027 money plans. Set your new rate and your savings goal before New Year’s Eve, then celebrate a big year.

Saturn turns forward again at 7 degrees 56 minutes Aries in your 5th house of creativity, romance, children, hobbies, play, and self-expression. Since July 26, Saturn has rebuilt your creative and romantic life from the inside. After December 10, the slow work clicks forward. A creative project that finally takes form, a romance that finally moves toward something committed, a child question that finally gets a real answer.
Neptune turns forward again at 1 degree 37 minutes Aries in the same 5th house on December 12. The vision of what you want to make, who you want to be in love with, what creative life is honest also starts moving forward. Saturn gives the bones; Neptune gives the picture.
The New Moon at 16 Sagittarius lands in your own 1st house of body, identity, and how you show up. This is the most personally charged year-ahead starting point of your year. Who you want to be in 2027, what version of yourself you are stepping into, what new direction you are choosing all begins here.
Jupiter turns retrograde at 27 degrees Leo in your 9th house of travel, higher learning, philosophy, publishing, and the bigger life, and stays retrograde through April 12, 2027. As ruler of your chart, Jupiter retrograde is asking you to refine the bigger life picture (a trip, a course, a publishing project, an international decision) before you ship the 2027 version. It is a request for a better draft.
The Full Moon at 2 Cancer lands in your 8th house of intimacy, shared resources, taxes, debt, inheritance, and depth. It is a supermoon, so the feelings around shared money and intimacy may run bigger than usual. A money conversation with a partner, a tax move, a debt decision, or a real intimacy reset tends to come into focus in the days around the solstice.
