What's in the stars for Summer 2024-25

Renowned psychic medium and astrologer Patsy Bennett shares her complete guide to horoscopes for summer.

ARIES

Summertime is the time for relaxation and health; for focusing on you, your loved ones and on happiness. This year, you must avoid taking your usually high energy levels for granted, especially in December, as it’s vital you pace yourself or you risk fatigue. Your home life, a property or fresh environment may take much of your attention in January and you may be drawn to re-think aspects of these areas. The full moon on 13 February suggests a resolution to issues from 2024 is possible.

TAURUS

This phase will be unique for you. You may experience out-of-the-ordinary events, and developments may mean that you even appear to others to be a little eccentric. So be sure to check your actions are realistic or you could risk being overwhelmed by events. Nevertheless, you could step into innovative and wonderful scenarios; there’s an exciting opportunity to let your imagination soar. Be proactive but keep finances real; be prepared to set a practical budget.

GEMINI

The new moon on December 31 ushers in a fresh phase for you in a shared area, such as joint finances or shared space at home. Communications will improve as you head into 2025, so while some interactions may feel a little sluggish or complex in December, remain positive. Financially, Jupiter will help you to improve circumstances from February onwards, and a patient approach to finances beforehand will be fruitful. Travel will appeal, and self-development will be rewarding.

CANCER

The end of 2024 brings a milestone as you turn a corner in your personal life and in your long-term hopes, status and goals. The new moon on New Year’s Eve will kick-start a fresh phase in your daily life and, for June-born Crabs, in your personal life. Be ready to re-evaluate your budget mid-January if need be. In your love life, you’ll gain the chance to adjust to developments and revitalise your relationship. February could take a key commitment to a new level.

LEO

Mars retrograde could produce lack-lustre energy levels, but if you focus that little bit more on your projects, you’ll avoid unintentional mistakes and restlessness, especially early in December. The Aquarian new moon on January 29 will kick-start a more varied schedule in your usual daily routine, bringing a sense of potential in your romantic life too. The full moon February 12 brings the chance to be more adventurous and motivated in your domestic and personal life.

VIRGO

Venus joins Pluto in Aquarius in December, bringing a busy time at work. Be sure to put your best foot forward, as you could advance, especially around the 9^th. You’ll be drawn to broaden your skills base and to schedule more time for your favourite ventures. For some Virgos, however, early December will be ideal for time spent with loved ones. A romantic tryst could be transformative. Saturn and Neptune will help you to reach goals in your relationships, through to mid-February.

LIBRA

Be prepared to step into fresh territory in your status, projects or at work, with a view to creating an ideal scenario moving into 2025. In the field of family and personal relationships, the new moon on New Year’s Eve will help you to turn a corner. If you are creative and innovative, January will be ideal for beginning fresh projects. You will gain insight into your career prospects and work direction mid-January and again mid-February, enabling you to gauge your best next step.

SCORPIO

Be adventurous with your plans for 2025 during December, as events this summer could open doors for you, especially with travel, business and personal relationships. But you must avoid overt idealism and impulsiveness, as these could trip you up. So the key to success lies in good research and planning. In January, Venus will put your mind to romance, fun and creative options, but you must again avoid seeing life through rose-coloured glasses. Set solid groundwork first.

SAGITTARIUS

The new moon on 1 December could bring changes in your usual daily routine, and in your personal life if you were born in November. Consider formulating schedules that embrace more of what you love in life. Mercury retrograde may slow down some of your projects but the pace will pick up again by mid-February at the latest. So this summer is an excellent time for relaxation where you can find it; to dream a little; and to plan projects to go full-tilt ahead by end of February.

CAPRICORN

The new moon on New Year’s Eve marks the end of a major cycle. Consider looking for ways to refresh and revitalise your life in 2025. For some, ‘the new’ will be at work; for others in your personal life. You may need to go over old ground first, such as review current work practices, or even returning to an old haunt or familiar circumstance. You’ll be drawn to travel and improving relationships in the New Year and to enter fresh territory financially or in your personal life.

AQUARIUS

Venus joins Pluto in your sign in December, bringing the chance to transform your personal life this summer. You’ll gain the opportunity to focus on areas of interest that took your attention earlier in 2024. Be sure to find the time to concentrate on your favourite activities, people and social circles, creating a sense of purpose, belonging and direction. The new moon in your sign on January 29 will kick-start a fresh work or daily routine, so aim to schedule more variety and spice.

PISCES

Saturn and Neptune in your sign help you to gain ground at work and at play, enabling you by mid-February to gain a sense that you are on track with your projects and relationships. In the meantime, you’ll enjoy the opportunity to spend time with those you love in December via a reunion or visit to an old haunt. Venus in your sign for most of January will bring the opportunity to boost your love life, with early February bringing positive aspects for romance and work.
