Seeking out meaningful connections can bring a renewed sense of enthusiasm to this area. The new moon on December 13th is a particularly abundant time for social interactions. Attend an event or gather with friends to make the most of it. As your ruler Mercury begins its retrograde journey mid-month, it prompts a shift in gears for the remainder of 2023. Take some time for introspection, especially concerning shared resources and partnerships. This process is likely to bring to light information that was previously overlooked.
