Daily Horoscope for December 21, 2025 – New York Daily News

General daily overview for December 21, 2025

A fast-paced shift welcomes the morning hours. With the blazing Sun heading into Capricorn at 10:03 a.m. EST, we can choose more stable steps, defined priorities, and realistic responsibilities without losing heart. As big Jupiter square healing Chiron tests optimism, we know this is just a learning opportunity. Growth requires patience and effort. When we combine the cautious movement of the Sun with the stricter alignment of Jupiter and Chiron, there is no doubt that we will have the strength to do whatever needs to be done today.

Ram

March 21 – April 19

Courage isn’t all you’ll need today, but it can go a long way! As the bright Sun enters your 10th House of Status, your leadership skills may be needed ASAP. You may end up having to delegate certain tasks, professional or personal. Pay attention to your team (at home and at work) on how to maintain momentum without unnecessary stress. Endurance turns sustained effort into lasting victories, just as consistent follow through builds confidence. Lead calmly so your results speak for you.

Bull

April 20 – May 20

Keeping a cool head can strengthen your current plans. Your curious 9th house begins to welcome the Sun today, although its energy is tempered by the square between Venus and Saturn. Consider reviewing shared accounts or splitting bills, making sure to be patient with everyone involved. Learning complicated aspects of life like this doesn’t have to be scary today – it can actually be empowering. Getting accurate details as early as possible is the best way to prevent stress from getting worse later. Predictability protects peace.

Gemini

May 21 – June 20

Slow talk is better than fast nonsense. Financial confidence can grow when you face a pain point without jokes or twists. Honesty is your best tool as expansive Jupiter squares Chiron, the wounded healer, focusing your 2nd House of Money and your common 11th house. You could start using the barter system between friends rather than paying each other. Today is an opportunity to explore such options – then you can stick with one choice long enough to see results that validate your efforts.

Cancer

June 21 – July 22

Cancer, your care now becomes your superpower. Jupiter, the Great Benefic, is in your sign, where he heals Chiron in your 10th public house. Honoring your boundaries is an essential part of respecting yourself as you are, not as strangers want you to be. You have the right to say no! Your protective instincts are probably correct right now, both at home and away. Setting boundaries is an act of love that can strengthen family bonds and your own well-being. Keep your heat safe.

Lion

July 23 – August 22

Your light is meant to be shared, but you will need to have enough fuel. The Sun enters your practical 6th house, where it begins a cycle that rewards self-care and thoughtful pacing. At a minimum, avoid working through lunch and try to take plenty of breaks in general. Your warm generosity will shine more steadily when you conserve energy and move at a maintainable pace. This way, you will have the power to transform your ordinary tasks into something more enjoyable and expressive.

Virgin

August 23 – September 22

This morning focuses on practical actions at home. What matters most to you, Virgo? Prioritize this, but don’t forget what matters to those who share your space, whether your roommates are friends, family, or acquaintances. With the Sun sliding into your youthful 5th house, a younger roommate (or any child in the house) can cause domestic frustration. If they (or anyone else) frustrate you, look for ways everyone can contribute to the household. Even adults could benefit from a shared chore board!

Balance

September 23 – October 22

Open your door and show off your home! The Sun jumps into your fundamental 4th house, drawing cosmic focus there. This could have a very literal result, where you stay busy updating, maintaining, or enjoying your home. Conversely, it could be a more metaphorical reminder to think about your story. If you have collections, when did they start? Who gave you a particularly popular household item, or where did you purchase it for yourself? Don’t be afraid to ask yourself these questions.

Scorpio

October 23 – November 21

Deep focus stabilizes the rhythm of your day. Your 3rd House of Communication becomes practical as the passionate Sun shifts its attention there. Focus on clear messages and reliable methods that prevent emotions from clouding facts. You may need to revise a personal release or professional presentation, but the extra effort should be worth it. Your intensity becomes an asset when channeled wisely, because measured words open doors that force would likely close. Choose precision, because the truth deserves to be delivered cleanly.

Sagittarius

November 22 – December 21

Sagittarius, your steps now find firmer ground. Self-respect guides every yes and no today, and your optimism brightens when choices reflect what truly feels right to you. Venus, concerned with your values, in your heady sign, is authoritative over Saturn, which can present you with certain personal limitations. Fortunately, these are the kind of boundaries that are healthy to have. For example, you’re not about to show up to a work event in casual wear or let typos sneak into a public post! Honor yourself so that freedom remains real.

Capricorn

December 22 – January 19

Confidence is practically your middle name, starting today! The sparkling Sun begins its annual journey through your capable sign, highlighting your determination and refreshing your personal brand. Don’t waste this boost: think about your choices, even if it would be easier to jump to conclusions. You can set an achievable milestone that shows your reliability to someone who matters and makes it clear what comes next. Such consistent steps create lasting momentum and reinforce your reputation for consistent excellence. You have the power!

Aquarius

January 20 – February 18

Think about what supports your soul as well as your body. Your 12th House of Quiet Times welcomes the Sun, giving you a quiet period to contemplate whatever is on your mind. This may involve your community or values, especially as Venus and Saturn clash in your 11th and 2nd houses. You might end up thinking about the costs of an event in terms of money and time, making sure plans are fair to everyone involved, including you. Thoughtful terms keep friendships easy and supportive.

Pisces

February 19 – March 20

Gentle waves carefully guide your choices. Joy increases when play promotes healing, not escape, and comfort increases when you move at an indulgent pace with the gentle expectations you set for yourself. Auspicious Jupiter square to vulnerable Chiron focuses your 5th House of creativity and joy, inviting you to start a project that helps you stay in the present moment. You can also experience a no-pressure class that appeals to your creative side. Remember that you have the right to have fun, even in busy times.
