Feeling oh-so-merry or bah humbug? No matter where on the spectrum you fall, the stars have something to do with how you’re feeling during this time of year. The location of the planets in the zodiac always have an impact on how well you handle the holidays. Each sign reacts differently to these planetary shifts. You might have had a great time with your family on Thanksgiving, but only a month later may have a terrible get-together with the same group— it’s not you… it’s just Mercury retrograde in Sagittarius! Understanding what zodiacs planets are occupying can help you survive this year’s holiday season.

Find out what’s in store for you with an accurate psychic reading!

Perhaps the biggest change in the stars this season occurred at the top of the month, when the super moon in Gemini and Mercury entered retrograde on the 3rd. The super moon brings elevated energy and power surrounding the attributes associated with Gemini, such as intellect, creativity, and communication. Additionally, Gemini’s ruling planet is Mercury, and as it moves through retrograde until the 23rd, you will feel a pull between the desire to take advantage of the energetic momentum in the air and the need to slow down and reevaluate things. This could make the holiday rush feel overwhelming, when in reality you’re completely in control.

Feel in control of your energy this holiday season with this Zodiac Holiday Survival Guide below!
