Written in the Stars - Week of December 4




Venus in Scorpio —when the lighthearted goddess of love and beauty enters the dark realm of the underworld, her charms take on an intense and obsessive quality. Consuming needs and passions call to us; nothing superficial seems to satisfy. Even fear is an aphrodisiac. Enjoy the thrill ride — just don't pull a Romeo & Juliet.


ARIES

You're in deep, Aries. Venus, the planet of love and pleasure, has moved into your House of Intimacy and the Other. Suddenly, all that is transformative, spiritual and intense will enthrall you. You may feel compelled to make a stronger commitment to a partner, or you could receive a financial boost thanks to someone you're very close to. Trust your intuition this week and dig deeper into subjects that excite you. You're craving intimacy and the unvarnished truth. Superficial applicants need not apply.


TAURUS

It's the perfect time to give some personal attention to your closest loved ones, Taurus. Your ruler, Venus, the planet of love and pleasure, has moved into your House of Partnerships, making you crave the give-and-take that you can only get from one-on-one interactions. You're more adaptable and diplomatic than usual, so an ideal use of this energy would be mediating, arranging or playing liaison, whether at work, at home, or socially. ('Tis the season!) You're being lent extra grace, charm and compassion now — work it!


GEMINI

Do you put your heart and soul into your daily grind, Gemini? Venus, the planet of love and pleasure, has moved into your House of Work and Routine, inspiring you to de-clutter your desk, brighten up your work space, or socialize more with coworkers. This is a great time to take more joy in your work, and consider what positive self-care habits you should work into your routine. A monthly massage? A pedicure after your first 5K, or a new gadget when you wrap up a project? Do what motivates you; work toward what inspires you.


CANCER

It's time to get out and play, Cancer! Venus, the planet of love and pleasure, has moved into your House of Creativity, Romance and Personal Expression, making you more charming, open and willing to show off what you've got. There's no better time to put your mind, heart and soul into your creative and personal projects — this energy helps evoke your inner child, who is also, naturally, your inner artist and genius. This is joyful energy that's best embraced by just being yourself and doing what you love. Enjoy!


LEO


You're a hunter and a queen or king, as the lion of the zodiac, Leo, but this week, you may feel like tending to your den. Venus, the planet of love and pleasure, has moved into you House of Home and Family, making you crave the comforts of home. You may feel like cleaning up, sprucing up, or decorating your home now, and you may provide a safe haven for others under this energy. You may even discover a way to make money from home now. Things of sentimental and nostalgic value are vital now. Indulge.


VIRGO

I am betting you have near-filled up your meticulously-kept little black book for this month, Virgo, and not just because it's the holidays. Venus, the planet of love and pleasure, is chatting everyone up in your House of Communications, making you more charming, chatty and all-around busy. You strike up conversations and establish a rapport easily now, so it's a great time to make new connections, strengthen old ones, or mediate situations at work or at home. ('Tis the season!) Work your verbal magic. 


LIBRA

It's no secret that you love the rich things in life, Libra: sweets, conversations and bank accounts. You're going to long for la dolce vita more than ever now that your ruler, charming Venus, has moved into your House of Money and Values. Your cravings skyrocket now, but luckily, this energy has a way of bringing you what you want as well, from surprise gifts to sudden windfalls. Be careful not to splurge on yourself too much — no one enjoys a hangover, or buyer's remorse. Take time to enjoy, and express gratitude for, the good things in life.


SCORPIO

Your sweet side is showing, Scorpio. Oh, don't hide it. It looks good on you! Venus, the planet of love and pleasure, has moved into your sign, and your House of Self, making you softer, more receptive and open. It's a great time to make changes to your appearance, as Venus lends luck and beauty to your looks now. Haircuts, wardrobe upgrades and beauty routines are highlighted. You're always attractive — the most magnetic sign in the zodiac. Now your attractiveness is softened, emboldening others to approach you. Get out there!


SAGITTARIUS


Are you sharing your love behind closed doors, Sagittarius? How unlike the bold adventurer of the zodiac! But with sweet Venus moving through your House of Secrets and the Past, wistfulness, nostalgia, karma and secret affairs rise to prominence. Have you fallen for someone unattainable? Or perhaps you must put an end to some unfinished emotional business. Either way, you can certainly heal certain relationships, and put others to rest, under this peaceful energy. Take time to yourself to reflect. See what appears


CAPRICORN


Are you part of a like-minded group or club, Capricorn? You're certainly an individual, but you know the value of working with a team, too — after all, you're the original worker bee. Charming Venus, the planet of love and pleasure, has moved into your House of Allies and Organizations, indicating that you'll benefit from exchanging ideas, or designing projects, with a group. It's time to share your feelings, your passions and your workload. Your ideas will be embraced and supported: offer them up!


AQUARIUS

Have you been waiting for the right moment to get back in the game, and step into the spotlight, Aquarius? Let the games begin. Venus, the planet of love and pleasure, has moved into your House of Career and Destiny, making you both magnetic and magnanimous in the eyes of powerful figures who could provide a significant upgrade to your future. Dress your best, strut your stuff, and expect to come across big opportunities. Network, socialize; you're likely to make a positive professional impression, even on a casual outing.


PISCES

It's time to "get away," Pisces, even if you don't leave your bed (which, let's face it, has been known to happen). You have a taste for the exotic now, as Venus, the planet of love and pleasure, has moved into your House of Journeys and Philosophy. You crave travel, adventure and freedom now, so whenever you can, break from the beaten path. Go somewhere new. Take a class or join a group discussing "big ideas." Explore, and meet people you wouldn't, ordinarily. Exotic new connections are forecast.
