On December 4, we will enjoy the last new moon of the year, before kicking off the new year. And while that alone is lovely enough, this new moon is bringing a solar eclipse along with it.

Both the new moon and solar eclipse will take place in Sagittarius, the sign of expansion, growth, and adventure. Typically, new moons are thought to bring new beginnings, and what better time than right before the new year. Adding even more refreshing and transformative energy is the eclipse. Eclipses are often thought of as portals that take us to a fresh start and encourage new stages in life.

To say encourage is honestly an understatement, though, as eclipses are typically thought to bring us fated change. Because of this, many of us, if not all of us, are going to be feeling a major shift in a new direction. To help better understand how this will affect us individually, here is how this will affect each sign of the zodiac.
