December brings a powerful shift in orientation — the kind that doesn’t announce itself loudly but quietly reveals what the entire year has been shaping in you. The month opens with a clarifying Gemini Full Moon, a Mars–Saturn reality check, and Neptune lifting out of retrograde, clearing just enough of the fog for insight to land. Mercury’s opposition to Uranus delivers breakthrough understanding, and the final sweep of the Water Trine helps release emotional residue before the new year begins. The Sagittarius New Moon offers fresh direction, though not fixed — Saturn and Neptune still in Pisces keep things fluid by design.
In Human Design, the Sun moves through an archetypal arc: Gate 9 (devotion), Gate 5 (natural timing), Gate 26 (refinement), Gate 11 (illumination), Gate 10 (authentic self), Gate 58 (vitality), and Gate 38 (meaningful struggle). Together they highlight focus, rhythm, discernment, imagination, identity, and purpose — a month-long recalibration of what actually matters.
December’s theme is reorientation: seeing your life with clearer eyes, shedding what can’t continue, and recognizing the possibilities that only appear at year’s end. What’s emerging now is true, even if it’s not fully formed yet.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
