December Overview for Sagittarius
Your birthday season finally gets its own new moon on December 9th, which for you is basically Christmas morning two weeks early. Mercury walks into your sign on the 6th, so your brain gets sharper right before the reset button even hits. Use those few days to say the thing out loud instead of just thinking it really loudly at someone across the room.
Then Jupiter, your ruler, turns retrograde on the 14th. That's not a punishment, it's your planet asking you to double check the map before you keep driving. Something you started chasing in the last few months wants a second look, not a full U-turn.
Sun moves into Capricorn on the 22nd and the full moon lands in Cancer on the 24th, of all days, lighting up home and family stuff right when you're supposed to be eating someone's weird holiday casserole. Expect feelings at the table. Let them happen instead of cracking a joke to escape the room.

Sagittarius Love Horoscope for December 2026
Venus slides into Scorpio on December 4th, turning up the intensity in whatever's already simmering. You're not usually one for brooding eye contact across a crowded kitchen, but try it anyway, it works. The Sagittarius new moon on the 9th is a good week to actually define something instead of leaving it vague and airy. By the Cancer full moon on the 24th, old wounds around family and belonging might surface mid-conversation. Don't change the subject this time.
Sagittarius Career Horoscope for December 2026
Mercury in your sign from the 6th makes you blunt in meetings, which honestly is just Tuesday for you. Use the window before the 14th to pitch, negotiate, or send the email you've been drafting for a week, because once Jupiter retrogrades you'll want to slow down and audit instead of expand. Saturn retrograde ends December 11th, loosening a restriction that's been sitting on a project or budget line. Mercury moves into Capricorn on the 26th. Save contract signing for after that.
Sagittarius Health Horoscope for December 2026
Neptune retrograde ends December 13th, and you might notice some fog lifting, like finally cleaning the coffee rings off your desk you'd stopped seeing. Uranus stays retrograde all month, so your body wants routine even though your brain is bored by the word. Pick one repeatable thing, a walk, a stretch, a specific bedtime, and don't negotiate with yourself about it. Rest around the 24th instead of pushing through the holiday chaos on fumes.
