December 2018 KAB Breastscopes

As 2018 draws to a close, you can almost hear the collective sigh of relief! This past year was filled with slowdowns (hello retrogrades!) and some tough eclipses, but thankfully forward momentum will resume as Mercury goes directly on December 6th. The fiery new moon in Sagittarius on December 7th is a lovely night for staying in and starting new projects or reflecting on the year ahead. As the sun moves into Capricorn, practicality takes center stage, so expect to make leaps and bounds forward as 2019 begins.Aries across the board are entering a period where they may be tested by superiors, making this month the perfect time to work on managing any anger issues. While it’s healthy to be angry at times, too much anger can cause adrenal fatigue and increase your risk of heart attack or stroke. If you feel your blood beginning to boil, channel that energy into a cardio workout or a walk around the block. It’s better for you and everyone involved if you blow off that steam in a healthy way! Many Taurus natives spent most of 2018 building strong foundations for the future, so December is the perfect month to leave behind the office and take a moment to reflect. Consider connecting with your inner world by taking a walk in the woods and trying the Japanese practice of Shinrin-yoku, which translates to “taking in the forest atmosphere.” Forest bathing increases focus and energy levels, and can even improve your sleep. It’s okay if you don’t live near a full-on forest! Head to your local park or anywhere else with trees and give this a try! Practice patience and compromise this month, dear Gemini. While there may be plenty of people pushing your buttons, taking a calm approach will benefit you in the long run. Try herbal teas that include peppermint or ginger to soothe your rattled nerves, and enjoy the stomach soothing benefits of these wonderful plants. We’re pretty obsessed with ginger tea here at KAB.The sign of the Crab will be working and playing hard this month, so be sure to take care, dear Cancer! You may want to give your liver a little extra support this holiday season, so try a B vitamin supplement to keep your internal filter going strong. B vitamins help detoxify the liver and can even give you an extra energy boost.

While the past year has been focused on the home, Leo natives are poised for fresh starts and new beginnings in career and love in 2019. As the year draws to a close, your wellness comes front and center, so consider how you can add more healthy choices to your routine. It’s fine to start small and build new habits slowly, dear Leo. Schedule workouts, social time and set work hours, but don’t beat yourself up if you slip up in the beginning! After all, change takes time.What do you really want Virgo? This is a great month to dare to dream of the ultimate future for yourself! While this can be a bit challenging for you (Virgos tend to be overly realistic), sometimes it’s important to visualize and focus on your greater ambitions. Setting clear intentions is a powerful tool, so try creating a vision board or start a manifestation journal. You can look back at what you created next year and marvel at your success!Your mind will be quick this month, dear Libra, but you may find yourself overthinking nearly everything! Resist the urge to stay up all night analyzing your day, and consider turning off your phone and computer at least two hours before you go to bed. The blue light from electronic devices disrupts natural sleep patterns, so curl up in bed with a book instead of scrolling on social media.This is a beautiful month for Scorpio to find love or deepen an existing relationship, so consider planning a sexy date for your special someone. Single Scorpions may want to sign up for a team sport, such as volleyball, softball, or whatever game you enjoy. You may find more than a great workout since playing team sports automatically breaks the ice and helps form relationships. It’s your birthday month, dear Sagittarius, and chances are you’ll be loving every moment of it! In fact, the only thing you may need to watch out for is overdoing it, whether through food or drink. Be sure to drink plenty of water before meals and be especially mindful of your alcohol consumption during all that celebrating. Better yet, organize a friendly basketball game or after dinner walk to help keep active during the holidays.

Consider this the perfect month to put yourself first, dear Capricorn. Prioritizing your own needs is crucial, and you may be feeling a little burned out after all the retrogrades of 2018. Why not start with taking care of your lovely face? Try a simple bentonite clay mask, which removes impurities without irritating sensitive skin. Mix equal part clay powder with either warm water or apple cider vinegar and kiss those impurities of 2018 goodbye! We love the brand Aztec Secret, which you can get affordably almost anywhere these days!This is a wonderful month for mercurial Aquarians to slow down and regroup in preparation for 2019. Consider jump-starting your meditation practice this month, and by all means, don’t resist any urge to slow down. Even 5 minutes of meditation can have a profound effect on mental, emotional, and physical health, so find a quiet spot and let go of that monkey mind, Aquarius!Let your imagination run wild this December, dear Pisces! With so much creative energy in the month ahead, artistic projects and passions can truly flourish. You may even want to experiment with new makeup techniques, so load up on organic, non-toxic eyeshadows and lipsticks and let your creativity shine with your beautiful face!
