TOP HOLIDAY TIPS FOR ARIES

Your fiery ruler Mars loves to go head to head to defend others and your ideas/ideals.


Mars is cruising through the diplomatic, balanced and peace-loving sign of (sidereal) Libra right up until Christmas morning. Take advantage of this transit of Mars through Libra to fine tune your diplomatic skills.


This holiday season is time to count to ten and then - Let. It. Go! You will also be extremely “other” focused from now until Christmas. Your source of stress this year can come from spending too much time on your partner and larger social circle.


So be sure to carve some time out for yourself! Aries, I know you LOVE your lists (mostly so you can check things off!), so be sure to put some YOU time on the list.


After Christmas through the new year you may just want to hide away with a good mystery book or binge watch a paranormal series! You may also want to make some significant personal transformations from Christmas through early February!

Your partner will be especially supportive after December 5 through Christmas day. If you are not in a partnership, rely on a trusted friend who might have less on their plate

.

The truth is you have been working SO hard the past few years and you are on the home stretch until the end of the year. Work will feel significantly better and less drudge like in 2020!


The new Moon Solar Eclipse on Christmas day may bring things to a head, either near the eclipse day or a week or two after. Hang in there Pisces, you are coming up on a fantastic time for your career, you just have this little bit to get through.
