During the week of December 4-10, 2022, Venus and Mercury move into the logical earth sign Capricorn and love affairs become more practical, helping you lay a solid foundation in your relationship and in your life.
Mercury rules communication while Venus rules romantic relationships.
When both are in Capricorn, it means you are encouraged to talk about your relationship and what you and your partner need from love.
As you transition from Sagittarius to Capricorn, you will feel your own inner direction leading you to think about how to achieve all the dreams and goals you started last month.
If you don’t actually make a plan, you have no chance of making the dream come true.
Venus in Capricorn is an act of service when it comes to love language, so it’s a wonderful time to focus on how you need to be loved by your partner in this way and how they need to feel yours too.
If the Gemini full moon returns to issues that first took place around May 30th, 2022 when the new moon occurred in this sign, you will be ready to reap the seeds you have sown.
Gemini is an air sign that favors communication and is known for how consciously they choose what to invest in.
Together, it’s the reminder that while you may have the sweet words of Gemini, it’s the actions of Capricorn that make love and what will help you truly develop a relationship that will stand the test of time.
The four zodiac signs whose relationships will improve during the week of December 5-11, 2022:
1. Sagittarius
(November 22 – December 21)
This is one of those rare weeks where you could see either a breakup or a relationship improvement and maybe even for a select few; both. This is because the energy is changing in such a way this week that it doesn’t guarantee an end, but it does mean that some romantic changes are about to happen for you.
The week begins with Mercury, the planet of communication, and the planet Venus, ruling love in Sagittarius. This has helped you be more authentic in your expressions and needs when it comes to your romantic relationship.
However, it may also be that through your authenticity you have also recognized that the connection you are in is not intended for you. The Gemini Full Moon in your relationship zone, occurring this week, can materialize many romantic themes that have been developing since the New Moon in Gemini on May 30, 2022. This is a time for you to look into Sagittarius and be honest with yourself about your needs and how transparent and honest you have been.
You can’t expect to have a relationship where you really feel seen and understood if you’re holding back parts of yourself. You need to learn that while a partner can create a safe space to share, it’s your job to open up in that way.
Even in healthy relationships, you sometimes still fear past situations that affect how open or transparent you are. This can be the beginning of a new chapter in your love life as you learn from what happened in the past.
2. Capricorn
(December 22 – January 19)
At the end of this week, both Mercury and Venus will be in your Capricorn zodiac sign.
Mercury is the planet of communication and thought processes, while Venus rules love and relationships. With both planets in your own sign, you can express yourself more authentically and lovingly.
It also means your partner is speaking your own love language, which can help smooth over recent challenges or tough spots. Venus in Capricorn functions differently than other zodiac signs, as she is more concerned with the practical matters of love than the luxurious or overly romantic.
This means it’s an excellent time to actually move forward in your relationship as the two of you can talk about plans and how you can shape a future that takes into account the needs of each of you. This week use your own innate qualities to speak your own truth but also to take your relationship to the next level.
You should also feel more grounded and confident, which can bring stability and security not only to your partner but to yourself as well. The dream of love is always wonderful, but the reality of it makes it truly eternal. This week you can beat both.
3. Virgo
(23 August – 22 September)
Jupiter is currently in Pisces for a few weeks which will bring luck and abundance to your romantic life as this water sign rules this area of your life.
Whatever Jupiter touches increases your life. As Jupiter in Pisces culminates with both Mercury and Venus in Capricorn this week, you can express yourself in healthier ways, have more fun in your relationship, and maybe even engage in conversations about starting or growing a family soon extend.
This is great energy for deeper engagement in your love life and to be able to heal some of the recent challenges where you have been wondering whether you and your partner are on the same page or not.
Try to forgive and let go of how you’ve been feeling for the past few weeks so you can enjoy the fresh new energy that’s coming in. It’s time you put away everything that came before just as a learning experience and embrace the love you’ve worked so hard to create.
As much as you can tend to focus on the aspects of your relationship that you want or need to improve, you also need to make sure you balance this with everything that’s going great and that you’re grateful for. It’s time to see how far you’ve come instead of just focusing on how far you want to go.
