Your daily horoscopes for Tuesday December 24, 2024
Aries (March 21-April 19) daily horoscope for Tuesday December 24
Got a cozy evening planned with your fam? You could find yourself climbing the walls while the carols are spinning, courtesy of restless Jupiter clashing with restrictive Saturn. If you’ve got a case of itchy feet, sneak away for an hour or two, or push back the furniture for a living room dance party. You’ll also have a lot of pent-up energy that will demand a physical release. Excuse yourself from afternoon obligations and hit the gym before it closes, or go out for a vigorous powerwalk.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) daily horoscope for Tuesday December 24
‘Tis the season to be jolly? Christmas Eve arrives with a tangled angle between social Jupiter in Gemini and grouchy Saturn in Pisces, which can boost your energy levels but also potentially bring you to your stress threshold. Pace yourself. If the reindeer games start to get under your skin, don’t wait for your inner Ebenezer to make an appearance. Sneak away for some solitary time. When you’ve regained your composure, feel free to jump back into the merry revelry with both feet.
Gemini (May 21-June 20) daily horoscope for Tuesday December 24
Three, two, one…blast off! You’re in “life of the party” mode this Christmas Eve, thanks to a festive Libra moon and jovial Jupiter in your sign. But don’t assume everyone’s on the same holly-jolly page. Dour Saturn will be squaring Jupiter, throwing some tension into the day. Even the slightest whiff of Grinchy behavior could make you see red. (And no, we’re not talking about a sighting of Santa’s suit here.) Still, Gemini, you don’t want to blow your stack on the people you love. Take the onus off of yourself to make sure everybody’s having a good time and simply focus on the people who naturally are.
Cancer (June 21-July 22) daily horoscope for Tuesday December 24
Festive family fun: heartwarming or a headache? Chateau Cancer may be buzzing with activity this Christmas Eve, thanks to the Libra moon sprinkling fairy dust over the day. A curveball comes in from lively Jupiter and restrained Saturn, who are at odds today. No matter how near and dear to your heart your loved ones are, you’ll need to create a haven within your home to maintain your sanity. If you’re visiting family out of town, you might decide to book a last-minute hotel instead of crashing on a couch. Or stock up on aspirin to deal with the cacophony. Maintain minimal stress levels and keep the love alive.
Leo (July 23-August 22) daily horoscope for Tuesday December 24
Social butterfly vibes abound this Christmas Eve as the Libra moon puts you in garrulous spirits. But loose-lipped Jupiter gets checked by restrained Saturn, indicating that not everyone will be in tune with your chatty nature. Don’t want to waste your breath “performing” for a cold audience. One-on-one conversations will be far more fruitful. Slip off for a walk to catch up with a cousin or lend a hand with dishes so you can get quality time with the host. By the same token, be conscious of spreading the love among your many friends and siblings. A bond can be strained if you focus too heavily on just one fan.

Virgo (August 23-September 22) daily horoscope for Tuesday December 24
Sugar plum fairies or strategic career moves? Enterprising Jupiter is doing a dynamic dance with Saturn today, pumping you full of passion for your professional goals. Your wheels will be spinning, making you anxious to get to work, but hello, Virgo, it’s Christmas Eve! You don’t need to spend the whole day scrolling and checking messages. Saturn’s influence could also increase tensions with an agitating family member. Before biting anyone’s head off, take a huge step back. Flying off the handle will only add fuel to the fire. The best way to set a boundary is to leave the room and cool down.
Libra (September 23-October 22) daily horoscope for Tuesday December 24
Take a lesson from Kool & the Gang and celebrate the good times, Libra! Not only is the moon in your sign this Christmas Eve, but it’s doing a happy dance with firecracker Jupiter in your festive fifth house of romance and glamour. You’ll be pumped full of high-octane exuberance for life—woohoo!—but watch out for excess. A word of warning comes from Saturn, who is squaring Jupiter from your wellness zone. Aim to keep the scales balanced by eating, drinking and merrymaking mindfully. Keeping your wits about you will make the night more fun.
Scorpio (October 23-November 21) daily horoscope for Tuesday December 24
Santa Baby! Channel your inner siren, who is craving release under today’s fantasy-fueled lunar vibe. Adding fuel to the fire? Concupiscent Jupiter is chiming in from your erotic eighth house. While your natural inclination is to be reserved, Jupiter turns down your modesty meter and brings out your boldness. But don’t remove all guardrails. Stoic Saturn is squaring Jupiter, warning you that there IS such a thing as “too much” today. Aim to sparkle without shorting out people’s circuits with your high-wattage intensity or lust.
Sagittarius (November 22-December 21) daily horoscope for Tuesday December 24
Have you hitched your sleigh to the right star, Sagittarius? Christmas Eve could find you speculating about the people who have drifted in and out of your circle this year. With your ruler, Jupiter, in your partnership house squaring sober Saturn, you may realize that it’s time to cut a reindeer loose or at least send them back to the North Pole for some training and development. Being generous with your resources is the Sagittarius way, but if the give and take isn’t flowing equally (or close to it) in both directions, you may be overfunctioning. Letting people stand on their own two feet could be the greatest gift you give them in 2025.

Capricorn (December 22-January 19) daily horoscope for Tuesday December 24
Raise your glass of cheer and enjoy your RDA of gingerbread, Capricorn! While you do, your mind may be on your 2025 wellness resolutions, thanks to a dynamic square between bountiful Jupiter in your healthy living zone and your ruler, measured Saturn. You don’t HAVE to zone out on the couch after that third piece of pumpkin pie. Round up your fellow revelers for a brisk and frosty walk through the neighborhood. The spirit of community service is burning bright. Bring some extra food to an elderly neighbor or do a shift at a shelter before meeting up with friends and family.

Aquarius (January 20-February 18) daily horoscope for Tuesday December 24
So many reindeer, so little time! Today’s “more is more” Libra moon in your expansive ninth house will find you decking every hall you step into. Moreover, with jovial Jupiter chiming in from your festive fifth house, you’ll make insta-friends wherever you go. Keep an eye on the clock while you’re out grabbing a coffee or a last cup of cheer. Timekeeper Saturn fires a warning shot, reminding you of your priorities. While these alluring strangers may be more entertaining than your familiars, they ARE just that…strangers. Don’t leave your inner circle hanging or delay their celebrations by showing up late.
Pisces (February 19-March 20) daily horoscope for Tuesday December 24
There are angels in your life, Pisces, and not just the one found on the top of the Christmas tree. Today’s stimulating square between Saturn in your sign and Jupiter in your family zone could reveal hidden support. For starters, you could reach out to a generous soul in your inner circle. Or quiet your mind and let your guides, ancestors and your own inner voice speak to you. Turn on a meditation—and hey, why not ask fellow celebrants to tune in too? While you’re waiting for Santa to slide down the chimney, your dreams may be rich with symbolism tonight. Keep a journal by your bed to capture the downloads!
