Horoscope Today: Daily Guide to What the Stars Have in Store for YOU – December 28, 2023

While retrograde Mercury converges with Mars it breathes new life into the phrase “only fools rush in where angels fear to tread.” But just because it’s better to look before we leap doesn’t mean we can’t take action.

This is a perfect time to reassess our progress over the past year and consider our options. Inspiration is in the air. And by allowing ideas to sink in, they have a much greater chance of success.

RAM

March 21 – April 20

It’s hard when someone you care about clings steadfastly to an idea that you see is holding them back from taking a positive step forward. There’s little you can do other than stand back and let them do what they want to do. But when it comes to your own life and actions, you have the power to reassess yourself and chart a more productive course. That is the gift that the cosmos brings today. Your ruler’s link to Mercury retrograde will help you question a recent decision. A quick review will provide you with positive energy.

BULL

April 21 – May 21

The mistletoe we hang around our homes (and kiss people under) has an unusual relationship with the juniper tree. Although the juniper is usually described as a parasite, the berries attract birds, which promotes the dispersal of the juniper seeds. So although their connection is complex, both plants benefit from each other. In your world today, it may be easy to draw a negative conclusion about a relationship. Yet there is more going on than meets the eye. If you look beyond the obvious, you’ll see that it delivers something you need (and vice versa).

TWIN

May 22 – June 22

This may not be what you want me to say, but it would be good if you could invest some of your time and energy into a situation that you would rather ignore. Yes. But now that your retrograde ruler, Mercury, is joining Mars, focusing on it will open your mind to new ways of coping. As the new year approaches, chances are that some topsy-turvy aspect of your world is about to get righted for the better. Moreover, there is a very good chance that it is a problem that you are trying so hard to overlook!

CANCER

June 23 – July 23

You know the old “chicken and egg” conundrum. Surely someone must have figured out which came first by now? It has to be simple: it’s one or the other. Which one gets your vote? Although it is very unlikely that you are thinking about this question today, you are dealing with another problem that should be easy to solve, but it is not. But because it involves you and another human being, it almost becomes complicated. Emotional problems are never easy. Still, by working together you can find a mutually enjoyable way to move forward.

LION

July 24 – August 23

You are a social Leo. But while many people think they know you, only a handful know you well. That brings me to a question; how well do you know yourself? As you approach the new year, it is appropriate to ask this, as serious consideration of the answer will lead to valuable insight. It’s time to replace a limiting view of your potential. And self-awareness is crucial. Don’t dismiss an idea today because it seems outside your skill set. With a touch of creativity, it can be the catalyst for transforming change.

VIRGIN

August 24 – September 23

No one likes inconsistency or double standards. But while these traits irritate most people, they drive Virgos crazy. Integrity is part of your modus operandi. You do your utmost to be consistent, clear and stick to your principles. And if you have a strong opinion about something, you will find the confidence to express your position. Yet there is no point in worrying about a situation that is already starting to resolve itself. Your ruler’s link to Mars allows you to look objectively at a situation that makes you suspicious.

SCALE

September 24 – October 23

As you settle back into a more normal routine, the pre-Christmas problems come back to mind. But instead of focusing on it, try to trust. Things are going as they should. Your current set of problems all exist for a reason. Just because it’s hard to see what those reasons are doesn’t mean they don’t exist. As Mercury and Mars retrograde come together, you’ll have the insight to recognize a pattern and understand how things fit into it. Soon you can take action to solve an important problem.

SCORPION

October 24 – November 22

Plants find a way to grow in the most inhospitable conditions. Consider cracks in the paving. Or deserts. It’s like they have a life force that refuses to give up. We all seem to think that in order to be successful or grow, we have to put in a tremendous amount of effort. Yet nature reminds us how gentle determination can lead to change. The Mercury/Mars link encourages you to be creative today. If you get inspired, you will find the motivation to make a small difference that brightens your world.

ARCHER

November 23 – December 21

“That’s one small step for a man, one giant leap for humanity.” Since Neil Armstrong had spent a significant amount of time in a confined space before stepping on the moon, it seems likely that he chose his words carefully. Today his statement would be gender neutral. As a trailblazing Sagittarius heading into the adventures of 2024, be as attentive as you can be. The steps you take may not go down in history, but they are important. You don’t want to leave anyone out of your achievements.

IBEX

December 22 – January 20

The sun in your sign puts you in the heavenly spotlight. Are you prepared for the attention coming your way? Do not panic! When the cameras are on you, you always come out better than you think. You even manage to get out of tricky scenarios and look composed. Yet we all have problems that we prefer to keep to ourselves. And you are dealing with a situation that you wish would resolve itself without your intervention. These days you can turn a source of awkwardness into something you’re proud of.

AQUARIUS

January 21 – February 19

It’s not ideal to be caught up in a situation in the middle of the holidays that takes up so much of your time that you can barely think about anything else. Your energy is focused on finding a solution or completing a challenge. Therefore, you are unaware of another scenario happening just outside your field of vision. But as it develops and becomes big enough to capture your attention, you will realize that it brings with it a change that has such a great benefit that it puts the other issue into perspective.

FISHING

February 20 – March 20

Why, when all we want is clarity, are we confronted with more and more confusion? What is happening? Well, maybe clarity is a passing, fleeting awareness. And maybe when we think we have it, we don’t! Perhaps we are fooling ourselves (which adds to our confusion!). So instead of seeking wisdom, perhaps we should resign ourselves to being baffled! You are in a baffling situation. Instead of trying to figure it out, you’ll find that you enjoy it when you accept that it’s just the way things are.
