Welcome sweethearts, and a very festive and warm hello to an Aries man horoscope for December. Now, although Mercury is retrograde as we go into December, there is still so much to play for.
It’s going to be a very creative, sometimes quirky and unusual, and honest time of year. This is a fantastic time for being forgiving but also learning to handle differences with others in a unique and novel way. This is certainly an idea-rich month. I want to encourage you all to think outside the box.
Now, we’ll have both Mercury retrograde, which will soon correct itself, and Mars retrograde. That does mean a slow start to the month, which is kind of a waste of the New Moon energy.
Normally, a New Moon is about being raring to go, exploiting brand-new opportunities, and being enterprising, but the two retrogrades indicate that one has to be a little bit more cautious and detailed and also show a little bit of grit and determination.
However, in the final two weeks, there is ample opportunity for many enjoyable activities, reunions, and a lot of passion. So, let’s see what it means for an Aries man…
Here’s what the stars have in store for an Aries Man this December…
Mercury is already Retrograde in Sagittarius…
The month starts with Mercury being retrograde in Sagittarius, which indicates that the first two weeks are not ideal for long-distance travel or complicated journeys. Therefore, if you guys are planning to travel for the festive season, it’s important to be prepared, have a backup plan, get your travel insurance ready, and just be a little more mindful than you normally would.
It’s also best to steer clear of confrontation with his and your parents; make sure they’re minding their own business. This is also a time when he has to kind of soft-pedal the expectations; it’s more a time of reflection than being incredibly dynamic and gung-ho, both in terms of love and in terms of your relationship goals.
So, it’s more important to think about the value you get from certain things because it’s quality over quantity. You don’t always need to spend a lot or pull out all the stops; sometimes, the simple things are really the most important.
New Moon in Sagittarius – 1 December
While the retrogrades mean this is a more cautious New Moon, a New Moon in Sagittarius is always an excellent time for focusing on the spiritual and philosophical side of your relationship. This means understanding your higher purpose as a couple and focusing on the ideals you share.
What’s important right now is your commitment to the greater good, even when things in the relationship are difficult. There’s always something positive you can do to improve each other’s lives or those around you.
Right now, it’s about spreading joy, maybe getting involved in community activities, and staying focused and positive. This is an excellent time for positive affirmations, celebrating your achievements, and appreciating your successes.
Mars Retrograde in Leo – December 7th
Mars retrograde in Leo indicates some anxiety when it comes to romance, particularly in the dating arena. If you guys have recently been dating or have an online relationship or an on-again, off-again relationship, this is a time when he might turn cold. Remember, Mars is also his ruler, so the fact that it’s retrograde in Leo can have a dampening effect, and he may take a few steps back.
What you need to do is stay consistent, loyal, and warm. You don’t want to alienate him further with any drama. Sometimes, he’s just feeling a little stressed and overextended, which can make him feel overwhelmed.
That’s why he’s taking a step back, so it’s important not to further confuse him. Just allow him to settle down, and things will return to an even keel. Mars retrograde is a marvelous opportunity for you both to be contrite, correct missteps and make any plans more solid and viable.
Venus Enters Aquarius – December 8th
Venus entering Aquarius is generally a good time for those “friends with benefits” relationships and is also positive for you guys doing social things together. But, as much as he likes to be social, he can also enjoy his own company right now.
Sometimes, if a social event is too demanding or hectic, he may just prefer to bow out, preferring the company of old friends he trusts rather than just being out on the party circuit for the sake of it.
So, when you’re thinking about how to spend your spare time, definitely accept those invites but possibly steer away from the more work-related, formal ones and opt for a relaxed night in with your best friends.
Mercury Direct in Sagittarius – December 16th
Now, this is a great time for kicking off the planning side of your Christmas. A direct Mercury always means that things will be easier to arrange; communication improves, and decisions can be made. This is a particularly great time for his publicity and promotion efforts regarding any work-related sales or promotional pushes he has going on.
What’s also vital in relationships is being forgiving and seeing the big picture. This isn’t a time to get bogged down in bickering; keep conversations flowing, know the most important issues, and keep those rolling along.
Try to set aside anything trivial until the new year. This is also a good time to put travel plans in motion, and if you haven’t booked anything yet, it’s still not too late to snap up a last-minute deal.
Sun enters Capricorn – December 22nd
By this time, the Aries man is feeling on top of things and ready to say goodbye to the year on a high note. He wants to take center stage at Christmas; this is his time. He wants to follow any traditions you have as a family and to feel important, especially in a paternal or “older and wiser” role within the family.
In love, don’t rain on his parade or steal his thunder; instead, support him and help him enjoy this. This is a special time of year for Aries; they particularly revel in the festive season. It’s a highlight and can also be a poignant time, so respect the tender emotions that come to the fore, and when he’s gregarious and having fun, go with it.
Themes for an Aries Man this December 2024…
The retrogrades may mean that while he enjoys the social side of the festive season and often wants to lead in organizing events, there are times when he’ll seek solitude or quality time with trusted friends. He’s not always up-close and personal; sometimes, he needs a little space to process more tender emotions that come to the surface, which he doesn’t always understand.
This is generally a good time for relationships, but it’s not full steam ahead; he needs moments to fully appreciate and understand where he’s at emotionally, so don’t pressure him.
Magic Motto – “Patience, understanding, and presence—cherishing each moment as it brings us closer, stronger, and more in tune with one another.”
Magic Text – “As we step into this festive season, let’s find beauty in the little things and joy in the quiet moments. When life feels like it’s slowing down or shifting, remember that this time is here to deepen our connection and strengthen our bond. Let’s enjoy each step, embracing both our laughter and silences as we close out the year.”
Do
The waxing phase is once again between the 1st and the 15th, and this is a fertile patch for new activities and the ideal time to launch initiatives, be enterprising, start new relationships or make decisions. The period after the 15th is a time of reflection, gaining understanding and winding down.
However, during the waxing phase, Mercury is still in retrograde, it only turns direct on the 16th, so long-range decisions and decisions about issues regarding publicity, publishing and the law, still need caution and may not proceed swimmingly.
Mars turns retrograde on the 7th in Leo, so in terms of dating and relationships it’s best to make decisions before the 7th. If an Aries guy makes a move on you after the seventh it’s more likely that the relationship will be beset by some issues and mixed emotions or a mismatch of intention.
Activities regarding networking and traveling with colleagues to gather information are favored as are his social media projects.
Avoid
The waxing phase is not good for home improvements, renovations or moving home. It’s not good for major new diets or activities linked to strenuous exercise.
It may not be a good time for him to do a business venture that he has very little knowledge of, or jump into the deep end. He should be careful in terms of contract negotiations, copyright and recruitment.
December 2024 Horoscope for an Aries Man…
Week 1: Wise Owl
Now, the Sun is in Sagittarius, square Saturn in Pisces, along with Mercury retrograde opposite Jupiter. This is a time when communication has to be both sensitive and philosophical.
What I mean by that is being able to understand the meaning through what is happening and to attribute meaning to events. It’s not enough to just look at the facts; one has to understand the purpose and what can be gained from every situation.
So, as a partner, it’s important to be both pragmatic and inspiring. It’s also important to understand that sometimes he can feel insecure and doubt himself. Right now, that means he is not necessarily the “jump in the deep end” kind of Aries Man he can sometimes be.
This is a time when he needs some context emotionally and spiritually, and the more you can be a wise voice who offers counsel, the better. Wisdom is what he appreciates most in love right now, rather than frivolous romance.
Week 2: Hectic and Happy
This tends to be a busy week in terms of running errands, traveling, and perhaps doing last-minute tasks. It’s also an important time to touch base with various family members, like siblings and cousins, because this creates a general feel-good factor.
However, this is also quite a sexy time for an Aries man. Sure, he can be a little bit cool sometimes if you press the wrong buttons, but on the other hand, if you are warm and generous and play to the strengths of the relationship, there’s every chance to ignite a little bit of passion.
This happens to be the sexiest week, so as long as it’s done carefully and you stimulate his sense of fun and playfulness in a non-pressured way, you can have some special intimate moments.
Week 3: Daydreaming
This week, with Neptune triggered in Pisces and a rather creative trine between Mercury retrograde and Mars retrograde, all is not what it seems. He is in a more people-pleasing, diplomatic mode, but he’s also quite evasive. So, this is certainly a time when you’re not going to get a straight answer on anything. He often obfuscates, puts things off, and is, in general, in two minds.
He is also a little bit passive right now. It’s a time when he’s not going to make any serious decisions. So, especially if you’re dating, do respect the fact that he is just a little bit ambivalent right now.
Although there is plenty of scope for romance and enjoyment, these should always be interspersed with times when he feels he can switch off, daydream, and just tune into his inner intuition without too much pressure.
Week 4: Desire and Expectations
Mars in Leo is opposite Pluto, which is now in Aquarius. Mercury is opposite Jupiter, and Venus is square Uranus. These are all very conflicting energies, yet this is an energy-rich time. What this means is he’s very eager to talk about the direction of relationships.
Now, this might be what you’ve been waiting for—finally an opportunity to get into the nitty-gritty, but the problem is, he can be a little bit spiky and confrontational. You may even find his manner confusing or disheartening. He is dealing with high levels of desire and expectation. But, as you know, when people are anxious but don’t know what they want, this creates a very combustible energy.
So, this is an important time for you both to aim for specific things you want to do, and then do them. Don’t be vague. Find some activities to do, get out walking to shed the post-Christmas calories, and get some fresh air. Try not to get bogged down in deep conversations, and definitely avoid excess right now, as that can fuel anxiety.
Summary
As you can tell, this is not an “all guns blazing” December when it comes to an Aries man. There are certainly opportunities for intimacy and for improving the relationship, but everything has to be really subtle.
This is a time when he can be a little bit testy, blowing hot and cold. The message here is: don’t panic. There’s simply a cocktail of emotions welling within him, and he doesn’t always know how to handle them. So, take it easy—and enjoy.
