💼 Career & Profession

Ketu moves through your first house (Cancer) this December, bringing self & personality into focus. Research, healing, psychology, the occult, IT and abstract problem-solving suit you, along with any work done quietly behind the scenes. Roles demanding constant self-promotion will exhaust you. You do your best work when the mission, not your name, is the point.

With Mars transiting your second house in Leo, accumulated wealth ask for attention. Earnings favour real estate, banking that rewards risk, engineering, food or metal trades, and any venture you control. You do best when income depends on your own initiative. Working under tight financial supervision, with no autonomy, breeds frustration and friction.

Jupiter in your second house colours this December through wealth & family. Banking, financial advising, food, hospitality, teaching and oratory all suit you. Anything where the spoken or written word generates income plays to your strengths. You do well managing other people’s money because you are trusted with it. The danger is comfort; once the income feels secure, ambition can quietly stall.

Sun moves through your fifth house (Scorpio) this December, bringing children & intellect into focus. Education, politics, creative direction, entertainment, advisory and speculative fields all suit this Sun. Mentorship and teaching from a position of authority come naturally. Earnings can come through investments and creative ventures, though speculation needs discipline.

With Mercury transiting your fifth house in Scorpio, children ask for attention. Teaching, creative writing, design, finance and trading, software, and entertainment all suit this placement. Anything that combines intellect with creativity will hold your interest. Speculation and the stock market can work for you, but only with the discipline to match your cleverness; pure impulse will not.

❤️ Love & Relationships

Rahu moves through your seventh house (Capricorn) this December, bringing marriage & partnership into focus. This is the heart of the placement.

Mercury in your fifth house colours this December through children & intellect. You flirt and bond through wit, banter, and shared ideas; a partner who can match your mind matters more than almost anything else. You may approach love analytically, weighing pros and cons.

🩺 Health

Ketu moves through your first house (Cancer) this December, bringing self & personality into focus.
