This month at a glance
- The whole month: love and partnership, with Venus in your 7th house (your best stretch)
- 15 to 31 December: lighter days, learning and travel as the Sun enters your 9th house (also good)
- Go gently: Until 15 December the Sun walks through your 8th house, which can feel like low energy or old worries.
- Key date, 5 December, 12:03 pm US Eastern: Rahu and Ketu change signs, for about 18 months
On 5 December Rahu moves into your 10th house, firing up your ambitions at work for the next 18 months. The first half asks for rest; from 15 December the Sun lights your 9th house and the mood lifts.

Aries love horoscope for December 2026
Venus in your 7th house all month keeps partners at the centre of your month, whether you have one or are meeting someone new. Jupiter and Mars in your 5th house add warmth, passion and fun. Jupiter turns retrograde there on 12 December, so an old flame or an old creative dream may come back for a second look; take your time with it.
This is the love picture for every Aries Moon in December 2026. But you are not every Aries Moon. Whether this month brings you a new spark or a quiet patch depends on your own chart, and on theirs. A Love Match looks at the two of you, side by side.
