Capricorn in December 2026
Your season and your turning point, Capricorn. Your ruler Saturn turns direct in your 4th house on December 10, so the foundational rebuild of home and family that has stalled since July starts moving again. The New Moon in Sagittarius on December 8 asks for one last release in your 12th. Jupiter turns retrograde in your 8th on December 13. Then the solstice on December 21 brings the Sun into Capricorn and your season begins, with the Full Moon in Cancer on December 23 lighting up partnership at the holidays. Build from the ground up.

Week of November 30 – December 6, 2026
Your circle moves forward, Capricorn. Venus re-enters your 11th house of friends and community on December 4 direct, so the connections that wobbled all autumn settle into something real. Mercury enters your 12th house on the 6th, turning your thinking quiet and reflective before your season. Reconnect properly now. Then take some time alone.

Release, then rebuild, Capricorn. The New Moon in Sagittarius on December 8 asks for one last quiet release in your 12th house before your season begins. Then on the 10th your ruler Saturn turns direct in your 4th house of home and family, so the foundational rebuild that stalled since July starts moving again. Jupiter turns retrograde in your 8th on the 13th. Let go. Then build from the ground up.
Week of December 14 – 20, 2026
The foundation moves, Capricorn. Your ruler Saturn is newly direct in your 4th house of home and family, so the foundational rebuild that stalled since July finally progresses. Jupiter is retrograde in your 8th house. Sagittarius season keeps you quiet in the 12th for one more week before your birthday season begins. Work on the base. Your season starts on the 21st.
Week of December 21 – 27, 2026
Your season begins, Capricorn. The solstice on December 21 brings the Sun into Capricorn and hands you your annual fresh start, right at the turning point of the year.
