Weekly Horoscope For December 20–26, 2021, From The AstroTwins

Friday December 24th features one of the most important cosmic events of 2021: the third in a trio of squares between old-school Saturn and shock-jock Uranus. These two have been in the ring since February 17th, decided on a second match on June 14th and arrive for their last match on Christmas Eve. To avoid galactic grinchiness, keep this rule in mind: change is the only constant. So when the awakened side of the family breaks into traditions badly in need of updating, watch as the conservative relatives dig their sensible heels into the snow-covered ground. This tug of war takes place around the world year round – and we hope it doesn't mess up your celebrations. You might want to lay down and let it happen. After December 24th, the stars will not be at this level of head-turning, information-distorting and annoying clashes for years. Furious.

Will Santa Claus slide down the chimney or slide down the bar in a red lace teddy? Christmas Day has as many twists as a classic candy cane, but some may be more flavorful than sweet. The reason? Declining Venus slams into brooding, seductive Pluto – a playground best suited for naughty elves. Mistletoe games can get tricky quickly, so don't mess with someone who isn't in the market or known for breaking hearts. (You won't be any different, sorry.) But if there is something solid between you, a smooch could turn supercalifragilism into a real relationship once Venus gets direct on January 29th. Have you already found the dasher for your dancer? Future planning could become real while you snuggle under the Christmas tree!

Gatherings may be cooler than merry and cheerful, but here's the good news: they'll also bring moments of serious bonding. Radar on a relative you want to be closer to in the new year. This nostalgic formation sets the perfect tone to reminisce about. Open the pantry and see if you have the ingredients for a classic Christmas breakfast, or browse photo albums and ask the elders to share stories about ancestors. Ahh so cute.
