♉︎ TAURUS · DECEMBER 2026
Taurus Horoscope December 2026
By Dima Tretyak · Updated October 23, 2026 · Times calculated, not copied · For self-reflection, not prediction
December 2026 puts partnerships and private matters ahead of everything else for you. Venus, your ruler, moves into your 7th house early in the month, and two slow planets turn direct in your 12th house.
Venus, your ruler, enters Scorpio and your 7th house of partners on December 4 at 3:14 AM EST (12:14 AM PST), and the month turns toward one-to-one dealings from there. Just before, at 2:02 AM EST, Mercury squares Jupiter, linking your 7th house with Jupiter in Leo, your 4th house. Talk with a partner may bump into matters tied to your 4th house, and digging into a fixed position can make that friction louder. On December 9 at 1:38 PM EST, Venus squares Pluto in your 10th house. What a partner wants and what your 10th house asks of you may pull apart, so listen before you decide.
A New Moon at 16°57′ Sagittarius arrives December 8 at 7:52 PM EST in your 8th house of intimacy, fear and loss. Read it as a quiet start: a first honest sentence about something you usually keep guarded. Earlier that day, Mercury sextile Pluto (2:32 PM EST) offers an easy opening between your 8th and 10th houses, if you take it. Words chosen with care can reach what usually goes unsaid.
December 10 to 12 stacks up in your 12th and 4th houses. Saturn turns direct at 7°55′ Aries on December 10 (6:23 PM EST), and Neptune follows at 1°36′ Aries on December 12 (5:13 PM EST). Matters of rest, solitude and hidden obligations that have been under review start moving forward again. Jupiter turns retrograde at 27°01′ Leo, your 4th house, on December 12 at 7:58 PM EST, which invites a second look at home and family plans rather than new launches. That same morning, Venus sextile Mars (4:15 AM EST) links your 7th house to your 5th house of romance and play.
Late in the month the focus moves outward. Sun trine Jupiter on December 18 (4:20 PM EST) and Mercury trine Jupiter on December 23 (1:03 PM EST) bring support between your 8th and 4th houses. Under the Full Moon at 2°14′ Cancer on December 23 (8:28 PM EST), your 3rd house of conversations, siblings and neighbors may show the result of something said earlier. Closing the month, the Last Quarter Moon on December 30 at 2:00 PM EST sits in your 6th house of daily routines.
Taurus love horoscope
Venus in Scorpio, your 7th house, from December 4 puts partnership at the center. Venus square Pluto on December 9 (1:38 PM EST) can surface a tug between what a partner wants and the demands of your 10th house. Venus sextile Mars on December 12 (4:15 AM EST) eases that, joining your 7th house to your 5th house. The New Moon on December 8 in your 8th house suits one candid talk about closeness. If you tend to hold a position too long, a partner may respond better to one clear request than to silence.
Taurus work horoscope
Your 6th house of daily work has its clearest marker on December 30, when the Last Quarter Moon at 9°05′ Libra arrives at 2:00 PM EST. It is a point to review routines before the year turns. Earlier, Mercury sextile Pluto on December 8 and Venus square Pluto on December 9 touch your 10th house of career and standing, so a talk with someone in authority could go deeper or turn tense. Saturn turning direct in your 12th house on December 10 lets behind-the-scenes duties pick up again.

Saturn turns direct at 7°55′ Aries on December 10 at 6:23 PM EST (3:23 PM PST) in your 12th house of rest and hidden matters.
