Here we are at the end of the Mayan Calendar and a 26,000 year Era. It’s the renowned December, 2012! This week is full of inspiration and opportunities. Consider these next few days a jumping-off point for you to head off in new, exciting directions!

There's a shift toward a more philosophical view of relationships this week as messenger Mercury moves into independent Sagittarius on Monday. Mercury's three-week stay in Sagittarius, which begins December 11, kicks things off with discussions and debates over causes and grand plans alike. You'll tend to blurt out whatever's on your mind, but this cavalier approach will help clear the air and get you moving in the right direction. It’s truly time to let go of the past.

Thursday's New Moon in exuberant Sagittarius encourages plenty of risk-taking in social situations. Uranus turns direct in Aries as well, so any plans languishing on your back burner will suddenly be ready for action! The New Moon brings with it several chances for new beginnings. Your plans may not always be the most practical, but you won't allow setbacks to get you down so you'll just keep jumping right back into the saddle. As alluring Venus moves through the outgoing fire sign of Sagittarius this energy help us set aside past emotional issues and embrace a new world of romantic possibilities.

Finally, on December 14th, Mercury and Uranus meet, showering you with moments of enlightenment. Ideas will drop into your lap out of nowhere, while seemingly dead-end problems will suddenly have solutions.

You might attract a dominating individual, but it's healthier for you to take the lead in relationships now. Making plans and expressing what you want is the best strategy to get the weekend off to a good start. However, a lunar shift into quirky Aquarius changes the mood for the rest of the weekend, requiring a more flexible approach to keep the peace. On Saturday afternoon, a lunar shift encourages you to experiment in relationships. Engaging others with a little less intensity allows you to enjoy yourself without worry. Getting away from it all is perfect for you this weekend. It’s time for some privacy on Saturday afternoon, and for spending quiet time out of the spotlight. Amorous Venus aligns with Neptune on Sunday to spur romantic feelings. It's wonderful to experience these divine emotions as long as you don't lose touch with common sense.

Your Love Week—Earth Signs

Sticking with the usual routine might sound comforting, but familiarity isn't likely to fulfill your needs this week. Thursday's fearless Sagittarius New Moon inspires you to aim higher in matters of the heart. Sure, the different tastes and desires of others are very likely to stretch your personal boundaries, but surpassing your limits is sometimes what it takes to restore excitement to your love life. Truth is likely to come out in a big way this week with the outspoken Sagittarius New Moon on Thursday. Being honest with yourself is the first step to freeing your heart from the past. A lunar shift into orderly Capricorn later that day puts your feet on solid ground. Your quiet confidence and unwavering courage can't help but impress others and make your company especially desirable now. The Moon is in the Earth Sign of Capricorn from Thursday afternoon until Saturday afternoon, providing you with a forty-eight hour window of opportunity to take control of your social life. Your natural leadership skills can be used just as easily in a romantic encounter as a professional meeting. But once the Moon moves into irreverent Aquarius you might want to change your tune. Create balance in your relationship life and be a more desirable companion by sitting back and enjoying the ride. Your easygoing approach reduces pressure and shows off the serious side of your personality.
