Sagittarius Weekly Forecast

You’re raring to go on a personal project, and having that creative powerhouse, the Sun, in your sign for another week is only adding fuel to your passion. But a wrench might get hurled at your plans on Wednesday, December 14, as el Sol smacks into confusing and sensitizing Neptune in Pisces and your domestic sector. And doesn’t it figure! Just as you finally manage to clear out some time and mental bandwidth to attend to YOUR needs and interests, someone from the “home and family” department sends out an SOS. First: Don’t overreact. It’s ultimately NOT personal. But immediately assess the “risk level” of this person’s predicament by asking yourself some tough questions: Have you heard this story a hundred times before? How much is legit and how much is conflated drama for…attention, sympathy, you name it? Did they take your excellent advice the LAST time this happened? Is there anyone else who might step in and run interference?

The generous Sun’s instinct is to automatically lend a hand, but at what cost to you? If it’s apparent this is the same old non-crisis, acknowledge their outreach but in the fewest words possible, explain that you’re not available. If you’re on the fence, then ask THEM some tough questions to suss out the reality of the situation. Be prepared to jump in—briefly—but have your exit strategy well-rehearsed before you enter the fray because, once you do, it’ll be infinitely harder to extricate yourself.

You don’t have to wait till the literal end of the year to conduct your own 2022 review. As a high-octane visionary—not to mention adept multitasker—you’re used to doing several things at once. Granted, everything doesn’t always work out quite as well as if you did them one at a time. Generally, things turn out fine AND you get the added satisfaction of knowing you ticked everything off your list. But sometimes, you lose sight of how much energy you’re pouring into your work and don’t realize how perilously close you’ve come to burnout. This Friday, a quarter moon in productivity-expert Virgo powers up your ambitious tenth house, offering a chance to rebalance the scales of effort and ease. Dialing the load back or slowing down hardly means you’ve “failed.” On the contrary! Giving yourself an opportunity to catch your breath, recharge your batteries and reassess the situation can lead to you coming back stronger, more focused and possibly (even) more motivated! Choose one or two top goals to crush before December 31 and go all in on them. And make a pinky pact with yourself to leave anything that can wait until the new year. You’ve got this!
