Daily forecasts for December 2008 written by Rob Tillett. Click here for Moonbeam's Month in Brief.
Mon Dec 1:
Fifth House Pleasure
- The last month of the calendar year begins on a jolly note for
most Virgoans and with the Moon cruising through your fifth house of love
and pleasure, it will be hard not to smile! Enjoy the simple things in
life surrounded by those you love best. If there are children in your
life, let them remind you of the joy and wonder of the season.
Uplifting colours are mulberry and mango.
Lucky numbers are 34 and 70.
Tue Dec 2:
Cinderella
- Like Cinderella at the ball, pay attention to the time. This is a
wonderful day for celebrations, but if you don't turn in early and get
a good night's sleep, you are likely to feel like a pumpkin tomorrow.
Enjoy rich food and drink in moderation, and remember not to drink and
drive or let someone who has been drinking get behind the wheel.
Ideal colours are dark green and copper.
Lucky numbers are 33 and 64.
Wed Dec 3:
Holiday Preparations
- This is a wonderful day to make preparations for the coming
holidays. Why not bake some goodies to share with friends and neighbours?
Regardless of what you or others choose to celebrate at this time of
year, the underlying theme is a sense of brotherhood and love. Be the
embodiment of the spirit of giving today!
Positive colours are jade and ochre.
Lucky numbers are 24 and 41.
Thu Dec 4:
Quality Time
- Spending quality time with your partner is requisite now as
neglecting them could lead to a very nasty scene within the next two
days. Some of you are presenting a very lovely image to the public but
are hiding or ignoring serious difficulties; spend healing time
together to avoid the inevitable explosion that comes with repression.
You'll be glad you made the effort.
Ideal colours are caramel and cream.
Lucky numbers are 18 and 57.
Fri Dec 5:
Pay Attention
- The changing Moon slides into your house of significant others
today, making this a good time to touch base with your closest
associates. You need to pay attention to your partner, mate or best
friend's needs before the heat is turned up tomorrow. Just spending a
half hour of precious time together can help clear up any potential misunderstandings.
Fortunate colours are green olive and chocolate.
Lucky numbers are 16 and 50.
Sat Dec 6:
Moody Mates
- It may be hard to find balance while dominating Saturn and the
submissive Moon clash today. It seems your career is taking up more
time than your partner is happy with. You will need to be sensitive to
the feelings of others, as they are more likely to lash out now.
Authority figures may be especially moody, so be sure to use your most
respectful tone.
Ideal colours are iridescent blue and champagne.
Lucky numbers are 39 and 8.
Sun Dec 7:
In Check
- The moody Moon enters your eighth house of shared finances today,
encouraging you to take a closer look at your budget. It may be the
season of giving, but you don't want to max out your credit cards! It
truly is the thought that counts, so think of less expensive gifts that
will express your affection this year.
Positive colours are burgundy and ebony.
Lucky numbers are 9 and 18.
Mon Dec 8:
Dignity And Grace
- The influence of wise Mercury and the tender Moon combine to
bring you comfort and joy today; some Virgins may even find a bonus in
their pay packets. Even if you haven't got a lot of material possessions,
you should feel pride in what you have and the life you live. Dignity and
grace are things that everyone deserves; you have enough to share with others.
Auspicious colours are peacock blue and russet.
Lucky numbers are 6 and 9.
Tue Dec 9:
Selfless Service
- Today's aspects could have you playing the role of martyr, so
watch yourself. Your gift of service is priceless to the world, but you
must not resent it. I'm sure even Jesus resented his role of Son of God/
Sacrificial Lamb at certain points in time, but two thousand years
later people are still talking about it. They won't forget your
kindnesses, either.
Auspicious colours are caramel and cream.
Lucky numbers are 62 and 73.
Wed Dec 10:
Please Yourself
- Some tension is possible if you deal with visitors from afar
and spending time with in-laws may be taxing today. There is no way you
can please everyone all the time, so stop trying. You are better off
being honest rather than resenting others, so make a stand and draw
the necessary lines. You will be respected for standing up for
yourself...this is not the time to be a martyr!
Fortunate colours are burnt orange and ebony.
Lucky numbers are 16 and 23.
Thu Dec 11:
Fireworks
- The Moon moves into your tenth house of career and reputation,
placing you under pressure. The next two days may find you struggling to
please an employer or authority figure. If a power struggle is
underway, expect fireworks. Communication is key here; do not assume
anything. Get everything in writing before you proceed with even simple tasks.
Auspicious colours are charcoal and mustard yellow.
Lucky numbers are 30 and 49.
Fri Dec 12:
Full Moon
- You Virgins are in the public eye as the Full Moon activates your
tenth house of career and reputation. Your intuition is very much in
evidence as intuitive Neptune lends you a hand; you may even have the
opportunity to save the day. Take the time to groom and preen yourself
this morning. You never know who you might meet!
Ideal colours are salmon pink and moonlight blue.
Lucky numbers are 1 and 12.
Sat Dec 13:
Social Whirlwind
- Many Virgins are caught up in a social whirlwind as the Moon
enters your eleventh house of friends and associates; tonight is
tailor made for a small dinner party. The most practical way to use
this friendly energy is to join a group for a long lunch today; don't
talk about business, kids or parent-teacher meetings, either! Forget
about your grown-up roles for a few hours today.
Ideal colours are holly red and holly green.
Lucky numbers are 8 and 46.
Sun Dec 14:
Hair Down
- With the friendly Moon in your eleventh house of associates,
you might be persuaded to go out and have some fun. After all, even the
super responsible Virgo has to have fun sometimes. You may find that
amusements cost more than you would like to pay, so set a limit on
what you will allow yourself to spend. Don't let anyone talk you into
doing anything you are uncomfortable with.
Beneficial colours are tomato red and apple green.
Lucky numbers are 31 and 44.
Mon Dec 15:
Low Gear
- Unexpected upsets may trip you up this morning, but what you
may not realize is that you unconsciously orchestrated some of these
events. You may find both your need for and fear of change coming into
conflict. Financial issues may cause you to change your opinions later in
the day.
Prosperous colours are brilliant white and russet.
Lucky numbers are 14 and 26.
Tue Dec 16:
Introspective
- It may be the holiday season, but most Virgoans are feeling
more introspective than social. You might want to remain backstage for
today's activities - let someone else be the star of the show. Allow your
senses to soak up everything; the sights, smells and sounds to make an
impression on you. Later, enjoy some quiet time by yourself.
Beneficial colours are plum and silver.
Lucky numbers are 7 and 43.
Wed Dec 17:
Brightening Up
- The Moon enters Virgo and your first house of personality,
brightening up your day. It will be easier to express yourself today,
with Mercury fully charged and ready to run, especially in your personal
relationships. Many obstacles can be overcome, so be yourself, as
you're worth it!
Favourable colours are lime and plum.
Lucky numbers are 7 and 66.
Thu Dec 18:
Challenges
- Emotional strength is yours as the Moon moves through your
sign, but don't expect a day of ease. Some Virgoans will find an
important relationship especially intense today; someone who
challenges you to be your best is in the picture. This person may
bring out the worst in you, but it is important to experience the
depth of your feelings, reactions and responses.
Positive colours are russet and ivory.
Lucky numbers are 9 and 32.
Fri Dec 19:
Comforting Moon
- The comforting Moon gives you extra emotional energy this
morning. Lend your support to others as you navigate the day; your
caring, nurturing side will be appreciated. Later this evening, count
your blessings as the Moon enters Libra and your second house of personal
finances. Don't be afraid to share what you have with others; it really
is in giving that we receive.
Positive colours are lilac and rich gold.
Lucky numbers are 19 and 28.
Sat Dec 20:
Prosperity Plus
- You can have a wonderful day, but you need to pay attention to
your personal finances if you haven't been keeping track of your cash
flow. The Libra Moon lights up your second house of money and resources,
reminding you that you do have some limitations. However, all your hard
work on the job is about to pay off. Keep dreaming about an
incredible prosperous future and you just may find yourself living in
it, sooner than you think.
Uplifting colours are aqua and amber.
Lucky numbers are 7 and 43.
Sun Dec 21:
The Solstice
- The solstice marks the beginning of a terrific four weeks for
you, which sees you the life and soul of the party, bedazzling all those
who come within your luminous sphere. Accept as many invitations as
you can and who knows where they can lead? I predict paths strewn with
broken hearts when the holiday season ends!
Balanced colours are mango and chocolate.
Lucky numbers are 70 and 16.
Mon Dec 22:
Anything Can Happen
- Don't let mixed messages confuse you, dear Virgo, you'll need
to be very clear in your communications. A profound opportunity for
transformation presents itself as Sun and Pluto combine in Capricorn,
your house of love and speculation, and with the Moon in sexy Scorpio,
anything can happen!
Uplifting colours are sky blue and tomato red.
Lucky numbers are 16 and 67.
Tue Dec 23:
Thoughts Into Action
- The Moon in your third house of communication wants you to
express your feelings. Most Virgoans have been cogitating quite a bit
lately and now is the time to put thoughts into action. If nervous
tension has been building, it's imperative to work off steam. Go for a
brisk walk in the fresh air this evening.
Ideal colours are lime and cobalt blue.
Lucky numbers are 7 and 56.
Wed Dec 24:
Christmas Eve
- The Moon enters your fourth house of home and family, urging
you to tend to your personal environment. Bring home fresh flowers to
brighten your kitchen, and light fragrant candles in your bedroom.
Making your home a haven from the pressures of the world is the best way
to utilize your private space. Give yours a touch of the exotic by using
the styles of other countries and cultures to decorate your abode.
Fortunate colours are golden honey and chocolate.
Lucky numbers are 7 and 58.
Thu Dec 25:
Merry Christmas!
- This Christmas may be tense as someone may think they know how to
run your life better than you do... maybe they are right, but you have
the privilege of making your own mistakes. Of course, once you have
tripped over your own two feet, you'll need to take a good look at
your shoelaces to see what went wrong. It's one thing to take a
tumble, but if you don't learn from your mistakes you are doomed to
repeat them. More about Christmas
Auspicious colours are sage green and lavender.
Lucky numbers are 9 and 36.
Fri Dec 26:
Your Heritage
- Your heritage is probably something that is very important to
you, even if it was less than royal. If you find that you have
conditioned behaviours that are tripping you up in your life and in your
relationships, it's time to consider seeing a counsellor. A good
astrologer can help you break destructive patterns so that you can
move forward again.
Uplifting colours are apricot and ginger.
Lucky numbers are 12 and 45.
Sat Dec 27:
New Moon
- Your mood should be considerably lighter with a romantic New Moon
your fifth house of pleasure and creativity. It's time to get into
the holiday spirit if you haven't already! No matter what you
celebrate, this is a wonderful time of year to let joy, goodwill and
peace be your top priorities.
Favourable colours are blackberry and sapphire blue.
Lucky numbers are 6 and 43.
Sun Dec 28:
Major Announcement
- With the Moon humming along in your fifth house of love, this
is the perfect day for merriment. Forget about your troubles and
enjoy the simple things in life... good food, music, friends, and
family. This is also a wonderful time to propose marriage or announce a
pregnancy. Cheers!
Energising colours are warm orange and chocolate.
Lucky numbers are 9 and 45.
Mon Dec 29:
Over Stimulated
- You may receive far too much stimulation as the Moon moves
through your third house of communication. Dealing with others may be
stressful, so surround yourself with things that relax you. Soothing
music, fresh flowers, and a long lunch break will help you stay on an
even keel. By evening, you will be more than ready to curl up on your
comfy couch with the remote control.
Relaxing colours are mango and lavender.
Lucky numbers are 7 and 44.
Tue Dec 30:
Positive Thinking
- Venus and Neptune harmonize well today, stimulating your
dreams for the future. If you can imagine it, you can become it, so
don't let doubt and insecurity get you down. The power of positive
thinking can really be utilized under this influence. Put your
imagination to work and receive the potent benefits of the new era of
Pluto in Capricorn.
Revealing colours are mulberry and fawn.
Lucky numbers are 7 and 28.
Wed Dec 31:
Happy New Year!
- Another year has come to a close, and many Virgoans feel the need to
tie up loose ends. This is a wonderful day to clear out your closets,
medicine cabinet and attic of things you don't want or need. Plan to
give what can still be used to a local charity. Drink a toast to
better health and efficiency in the coming year. You'll
probably overdo it tonight, but what the heck - enjoy!
Dynamic colours are champagne and violet.
Lucky numbers are 10 and 20.
