December is always a challenging month for you, especially as it relates to family. Virgos and especially people with Virgo rising tend to have families at a distance and this creates an inherent challenge when the holidays are upon us. Invariably some sacrifice has to be made. Either you travel and deal with the fact that each year you know your family less and less or you stay put and miss them dearly, even though they evolve and change in the distance of time and space. This year you also have issues around parents getting older and the parent within you coming of age as well as Pluto will be settling in your house of children, love, creativity and romance for the next 16 years. Being a parent becomes more intense role in your life as you see your children get older, you’ll also see your parents get older, specifically your father or father figures and it is a good time to take their legacy into account. Who is the man that raised you and what kind of lessons did he pass on, both good and bad? What kind of things did you not learn but wished you could have? All of these issues and questions factor into a very potent time for you during the holidays. If you do make that journey home this year, spend a good time of it trying to understand the man who did the best he could to teach about the world and it’s often confusing ways.
