Your Monthly Horoscopes: December 2018
Have you been met with miscommunication, unexpected travel delays, issues with technology, unaccounted for events - or a general feeling of being overwhelmed lately? Blame it on the retrograde. Mercury retrograde was back in full effect as of mid-November, and wreaked the most havoc in the signs Pisces, Sagittarius, Gemini, and Virgo.
Luckily for us, the third and final Mercury retrograde of this year is on its way out as of December 6th, and with its exit, makes room for the positive vibes from the lovely planet Jupiter to enter. Jupiter will be in its own sign of Sagittarius for the first time in 12 years and it will be influencing all of us in very good ways. Most of us will be ending the year with a bang and setting ourselves up for success in the year to come. Thus, the theme of the month is clarity.

All of the stirring energy you felt in early November to take the lead will come back with incredible force in the second week in December. All of the plans and expectations you had in the previous month will come to fruition starting December 6th and gain even more momentum through the end of December.
You may feel like re-evaluating how to market yourself into the world during the first week in December. But it won't be until after the 6th that you will be able to move forward with those ideas. If you are in your own business, this is a very good time for your confidence levels. Jupiter injects career growth for you. And this influence will continue through all of 2019.
By mid-December you'll be setting into motion some real promising career growth opportunities.
A lot of the anxiety-provoking events of the last year will calm down. With your home planet of Neptune in your own sign of Pisces during that time, you may have felt a bit of uncertainty about your life direction. You will slowly start to feel a confident rhythm starting this month. Whew, I know that's relief! This month marks a huge transition from the ultra-sensitive Pisces fish, to the spiritual warrior. This is the perfect time to join a team sport and give it your all physically. You will need an outlet for all of the energy that will come into your sphere starting December.
Your love life will get a big boost of romance during December. Venus will be traveling through your 9th house this December. Venus will influence everything in your life involving all that Sagittarius energy; travel, education, and spiritual/religious activities will dominate your higher-mind. And with Venus traveling through here, you might even find a new partner while on an exotic trip!

Megan Thee Stallion Shares Her Transformative Approach To Health And Wellness
Megan Thee Stallion is back and better than ever — both physically and mentally.
ForWomen’s Health May/June 2024 cover, the 29-year-old rapper bared all, opening up about her healing journey following the aftermath of the July 2020 shooting incident by rapper Tory Lanez.
“A lot of people didn’t treat me like I was human for a long time,” she told the publication. “I feel like everybody was always used to me being the fun and happy party girl. I watched people build me up, tear me down, and be confused about their expectations of me.”
She continued, “As a Black woman, as a darker Black woman, I also feel like people expect me to take the punches, take the beating, take the lashings, and handle it with grace. But I’m human.”
While the “Savage” artist exudes confidence through her stage presence and boisterous lyrics, behind the scenes, Megan was experiencing a silent battle with her mental health. “Before I went onstage, I would be crying half the time because I didn’t want to [perform], but I also didn’t want to upset my fans,” she says.
With pressures from the outside world piling up, Megan experienced “dark times,” that caused her to isolate from the public eye.
“I didn’t want to get [out] from under the covers,” she recalls. “I stayed in my room. I would not turn the lights on. I had blackout curtains. I didn’t want to see the sun. I knew I wasn’t myself. It took me a while to acknowledge that I was depressed. But once I started talking to a therapist, I was able to be truthful with myself.”
The “Wanna Be” rapper also details her current workout slip and diet that work hand in hand, giving her the mental clarity and stamina to perform at her highest level. For four to five days a week, Megan is locked in with one of her two trainers, Emory “Joc” Bernard and Tim Boutte, doing a variety of workouts like Pilates, running up and down sand hills at the beach, or hitting the StairMaster or elliptical for upwards of 40 minutes.
Best known for her “Megan knees,” leg day is a must — with hip thrusts, goblet squats, leg extensions, and “stallion kicks,” being included in her circuits.
With a combination of therapy, stepping away from imbalanced relationships, and daily movement, the Houston Hottie has since been able to reconnect with herself on a deeper level; putting her happiness before the opinions of others. “Working on myself made me get into working out because I needed to focus my energy somewhere else,” she shares. “I used working out to escape and to get happy.”
“I’m in a space where I feel good mentally, so I want to look as good as I feel.”
