We’re constantly fascinated by what our zodiac sign says about our lives, whether it's which signs are most compatible, the best sex positions for each sign, or how each sign handles conflict in relationships. That's why Bustle has enlisted Mecca Woods, a New York City-based Astrologer of MyLifeCreated.com to tell us all about how astrology is affecting our lives each day. Today's topic: your daily horoscope for December 15, 2016.
Today may feel pretty high energy and not necessarily in a good way, thanks to the sensitive and emotional Cancer Moon squaring off with Pluto (power) in Capricorn, Jupiter (opportunity) in Libra, and Uranus (rebellion) in Aries by the end of the day. Under these tough aspects, we may feel like we're being pulled in 10 different directions — with an urge to try something new ten different ways — especially coming off the fresh start energy of Tuesday's Full Moon. While the high pressure vibe of today may feel unsettling, know that it's to help us from getting too comfortable with leaving something in our lives as is, namely if that something is broken.
Read below to see what today's stars mean for your sign.
And remember to tune into Bustle's weekly horoscopes video live on Facebook every other Monday at 4 p.m. ET for a rundown of your weekly horoscope.
Aries (March 21 - April 19)
You may feel a bit thrown off today, as the need to impress or wow someone may be putting more pressure on you than it's worth. Instead of putting too much emphasis on what others think of you, take a step back and know that what you think of you is way more important. Return to your center.
Taurus (April 20 - May 20)
Your perception and your belief system are your keys right now to getting what you want and where you want. If you’ve been feeling trapped or stuck as of late, it could be because you need to shift your perspective or let go of an outmoded way of thinking. Release what's not working.
Gemini (May 21 - June 20)
It may be time to set some goals when it comes to your future plans and your current finances. If you seriously want to level up, it's time for a different approach not only when it comes to your money but also when it comes to monetizing your talent and creative genius. Demand more for yourself.
Cancer (June 21 - July 22
You may need to have a sit down with someone close to you today as it seems that this person may be asking more of you than you're able to give. Instead of trying to soldier through it with a smile on your face or begrudgingly caving in to this person's demands, reaffirm your boundaries.
Leo (July 23 - Aug. 22)
The pressure may be on today, which means it's a good time to focus on your self-care. Instead of waiting until your body/energy hits critical mass and tanks completely, looks to ways you can preemptively protect your health and your spirit. As such, your eating habits may be due for an overhaul.
Virgo (Aug. 23 - Sept. 22)
A future goal or dream may seem like it's woefully out of reach today but that could just be a fear of failure blocking you from seeing a solution. Instead of focusing on what's not working or all things that could go wrong, trust that good things are happening for you even if you can't imediately see them.
Libra (Sept. 23 - Oct. 22)
If your job search or career trajectory hasn't been going in the way that you want, it may be a time to take a step back and lead with your heart instead of necessity. Simply put: you need to go after or focus on the work that fuels you emotionally or you'll never be able to move past square one.
Scorpio (Oct. 23 - Nov. 21)
Today could be another reminder of how important it is for you to guard your private space. While some may chide you for it, you absolutely need a safe space for you to go to that's inaccessible to others. If you don't have that space, create one and if you do have that space, it's time for a visit.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22 - Dec. 21)
A love affair could come into the spotlight as you examine whether or not this person is worthy of the energy they may be demanding of you. While you're known to be a person who loves their freedom, you can still do committment. Though in this case, it's better to weigh if the investment is worth the price.
Capricorn (Dec. 22 - Jan. 19)
Compromise may not be your favorite word or your favorite thing to do, but could it be time for a little teamwork when it comes to getting past a challege with someone you love? Not that you have to bend over backwards here, it's just that it may be time for you to budge just a little.
Aquarius (Jan. 20 - Feb. 18)
What does the word "nourishment" mean to you? Today would be a good day to explore the meaning of this word and determine where in your life you can use some. Hint: Somewhere between your daily routine, your work life, and your health something seems to be missing. Fill your cup.
Pisces (February 19 - March 20)
There's some days when you just know you're it and other days when you second guess yourself at every turn. It's OK. Having good days and not so good days are normal. The only thing is learning how to better respond to those not so good days by still doing something good for you.
