Pisces
Pisces (Ruling Planet: Neptune; Element: Water) Your head is in the clouds, Pisces, and you have a grand imagination. But this way of thinking can often delve into escapist territory, and you have no problem deluding yourself to avoid harsh realities. You can be a pessimist who blames things on bad luck. And like any other water sign, you’re sensitive. But The Fishes in particular are intuitive to others’ feelings, and, although you often feel misunderstood by most, you have the ability to understand many people from all different walks of life.
The first week of December will be a surge of positive energy revolving around your professional life, and thanks to the communication planet’s position in Capricorn, your networking skills should shine during this time. Things slow down on the 7th when Venus enters the sign before yours, aloof Aquarius, and you’ll likely feel very private about your romantic life around this time– take care not to become too distant. Days later, the full moon in Gemini will keep you focused on the home and family, as any issues that were brewing under the surface will bubble over during this moon. On the 19th, Mars enters your sign, boosting your energy for projects and journeys. Just take care not to get too upset over delays or miscommunications that occur, as Mercury goes retrograde on the same day. This particular retrograde will have you comparing present to past, perhaps by literally running into an ex or former friend. With energy from a new moon and Sun in Capricorn, the end of 2016 is the perfect time to reflect on your community-oriented goals, especially if that means ringing in the new year with strong and supportive friends.
Your Trax: Since you’re feeling sensitive and private, why not listen to something that suits your mood? Soft music from Frankie Cosmos is easy to listen to. Music like Florist’s The Birds Outside Sang is something to keep close. If you need something a little louder, try The Light, from local shoegaze rockers Soft Fangs.
