Pisces, December 2024 is a month of introspection, revision, and personal growth. With Mars going retrograde in Leo, your sixth house, from December 7, you’ll be compelled to reassess your daily routines, work habits, and health practices. This transit is a powerful opportunity for you to make significant improvements to your lifestyle. You may find yourself revisiting old ways of doing things and addressing any repressed frustrations or anger that have been holding you back. Keep a look out for my blog on this transit coming out early December.
Mars retrograde in your sixth house can be a stressful period, unless you consider it an opportunity to reassess your workload and prioritize tasks more efficiently. Instead of feeling frustrated by delays, embrace the slower pace to refine your strategies and improve your work habits. Tempers may flair at work giving you an opportunity to cultivate patience and proactive communication with colleagues, turning potential conflicts into collaborative problem-solving sessions.
Pay attention to any health signals your body sends, viewing them as reminders to adjust your routine and incorporate more self-care. Rather than feeling restricted, see this period as a chance to streamline your lifestyle and eliminate unproductive habits. By February, when Mars goes direct, you’ll be well-positioned to implement brilliant solutions and move forward with renewed focus and improved workflow, thanks to the proactive changes you’ve made during the retrograde.
Dive into my comprehensive guide on the co-creative power of Mercury Retrogrades to learn how to navigate this energy deliberately and constructively.
Engage in my guided practice to co-create with the Mercury Retrograde.
Set aside 15 minutes each day to review your daily routines and work habits. Identify any patterns that are not serving you and brainstorm ways to improve them. Use a journal to document your daily reflections. Write down what you did well and what you could do better.
Pay close attention to your health practices. Are you eating well, exercising regularly, and getting enough sleep? Make small, incremental changes to improve your overall well-being. Create a wellness checklist and tick off each item daily.
Simultaneously, Mercury is retrograde in Sagittarius, your tenth house, from November 26 to December 16. This transit is urging you to review your overall life blueprint, career goals, and major aspirations. You may find that your perspective and personal truth are up for readjustment. This could mean rethinking your professional path, reassessing your long-term goals, or even considering a career change. You can read more about this transit in my blog: Mercury Retrograde in Sagittarius: A Journey of Truth and Expansion.
During this dual retrograde period, a powerful synergy emerges between your immediate work environment and your broader life direction, facilitating a comprehensive realignment of both your daily habits and overarching life goals. This intertwined effect offers a rare opportunity for holistic self-assessment, helping you ensure that your daily actions align with your broader vision. You may discover that repressed emotions or outdated routines have been subtly influencing your professional path or long-term aspirations.
By revisiting and revising your daily work practices, you can not only improve your efficiency but also clarify your long-term career objectives. Addressing repressed frustrations in your daily routines could reveal deeper insights about your professional path and personal truth, prompting you to rethink and readjust your goals. This period allows for you to make integrated changes that support a more cohesive, fulfilling professional journey and fostering personal growth and success.
Looking ahead, Mars will complete its retrograde in Cancer on February 24, 2025, and soon after, on March 2, Venus will move retrograde in Aries, overlapping with another Mercury retrograde in the same sign. The transformative journey you’re embarking on this December will set the stage for the personal evolution that will unfold over the next six months and is preparing you for a progressive year next year. This is all happening in preparation for significant cycle changes in 2025, with Saturn, Uranus, and Jupiter all changing signs.
To create meaningful, positive change in your external world, you must first make meaningful, positive changes to your inner reality. To live a different life, you must first become the person who embodies that life internally. Embrace the deep, introspective work offered by the four upcoming retrogrades between now and April’s end. The more intentional you are about this internal growth, the more profound and beneficial the outcomes will be, especially in light of the significant transits slated for later in 2025.
For now, focus on one step at a time, Pisces. Start paying close attention to your daily habits and health routines. What needs to change? December is about reviewing and reassessing. Take this opportunity to declutter your life and make way for the new. Remember, every step backwards is a chance to gain momentum for a leap forward.
Happy Holidays!
I am becoming the person who embodies the life I desire, aligning my daily habits with my overarching vision for my life.
