Leo Horoscope for December 2015

This is an exciting time to be alive, Leo, in terms of inspiration, and the courage to just be yourself, with more insights flooding into your awareness every day. Intimate partnership is another source of potency for you now. Your urge toward romanticism is strong, so that you might envision future possibilities for yourself, or potential shifts in your behavior, that are too grand to be concretely realizable. Your ideas could be blue-skies idealized, although countering this tendency there is also a strong groundedness to your approach now, especially at the very beginning of the month. The tug-of-war between fantasy and practicality continues in muted form into the second half of December, accompanied by a strongly creative streak that seeks to burst through any and all barriers to success, and to make it on strictly your own terms.

As the month begins, you are still feeling into the transition from Scorpio to Sagittarius, as far as the path of the Sun, your ruler, even though this motion was more than a week old by the time that this current month began. The recent Full Moon, with the Sun in Sagittarius, in your sector of societal involvement, friendship and future plans, has made a definite impact upon you, which you are perhaps continuing to digest. There is an eminently practical side to your creative impulse now, which could be expressed as limits to unfettered optimism, and there is an equally strong urge present in this recent configuration, to break through any barriers whatsoever to your own personal progress. As you negotiate recent changes in your consciousness, you are storing up the received wisdom of events, and of your reaction to them, as important ideas to ponder and to help fuel the mighty perspective shifts of this end-of-year timing for you.

This month sees you through changes and challenges at the core of your being to a space of greater creative interaction with the world around you. As you transition into the second half of the month, you are using both your mind and your heart to forge a new pathway forward for yourself that takes mystical realities quite seriously but in an entirely practical way. This sounds like a stretch, and it is, but one that is important as both factors are powerful for working, humans as we are, in correspondence to what Sting referred to when he sang: "we are spirits in the material world."
