Tuesday's New Moon falls in Jyestha nakshatra in the Vedic lunar calendar.
Jysetha is associated with power and protection. 

Sagittarius

Welcome to December, and the Sagittarius New Moon on Tuesday 3^rd. Make your image over, aim for boardroom empires, paint your masterpiece, and all your intentions are boosted by the moment. A passing mood midweek focuses on security and you get beneath the surface of a relationship. Conflict ensues between what you say and what you do, but quiet reflection is affirming and your silent prayer is answered. Find your voice on Thursday as planet of the mind Mercury enters your sign. Come down on one side of the fence and realize everything is not a philosophical issue. You have a genius idea for a gift and take steps to make it happen. Some suggest you are currying favour, but your intentions come from the heart.

Capricorn

You are in hustling mode and hide your motivations from the crowd. Venus, planet of luxury, gives you expensive tastes and you do all it takes to get a big-ticket item. Clear out your closet on Tuesday and move into the future. You combine personal charm and fun with the desire to get close to someone with knowledge to share.

Aquarius

If you want to change the system, join the system. You are in full political mode and find an alternative to the way business has always been done.  A behind-the-scenes liaison hits the spot and you combine pushiness with a pleasing style.

Pisces

Tuesday’s New Moon in your public image zone sets you off on the right foot. A foreign adventure suits your mood and a teaching role makes a platform for your talent. Events move smoothly and you give credit to the past while moving into the future. Think your strategy carefully and get credit for an idea that you put into the pot.

Aries

Your radical streak sets you apart, but you set about building bridges. Clever Mercury sits smoothly from Thursday and and thinking clearly saves time and trouble. Set up a charm offensive at work and get closer to the people who matter. Think big, keep it in the family, and a property deal comes to fruition at last.

Taurus

Your big ambitions change and you refine your whole operation. A close partner puts pressure on and you live with a sense of perpetual deadline. Time is pressing and those in power seem out of sync with your cause. Still, Venus, your ruler sits sweetly and making a united front makes the whole more than the sum of its parts.

Gemini

Relationships dominate the scene and you combine an emotional touch with smart talk. Tuesday turns over a new leaf and you move on an upswing after a moment of feeling apart. Analyze where you went wrong with somebody, but don’t leave it all in your head. A charity campaign helps your pet cause and you get kudos for caring.

Cancer

You are in affable mood, but keep alive to real opportunities that exist. A pipedream turns into reality when you put the pedal down. Venus, planet of love, sits in your partnership zone and you get closer to somebody you otherwise overlook. Your energy level escalates by Friday and you shape up for a party in different company.

Leo

People at home stymie your efforts as you balance self-expression and the domestic round. Tuesday’s New Moon gives you a break from duties and you are on the upswing at last. Speak smartly and a solution appears out of your back being to the wall. Playing nice in mundane job brings an unexpected payday.

Virgo

You issue a call-to-arms, except there is a softness to your approach. Venus and Mars keep pace and you blow the tumbleweeds out while making friends and influencing people. Tuesday’s New Moon highlights your domestic zone and withdrawing into a family cocoon is a pure delight. Stay out and hit the pillow hard on Saturday.

Libra

A boisterous end to the year arrives, but first you clear the decks. You are in full ambitious mode and a fantasy career proves perfectly viable. Jupiter, planet of faith, gives you 24-carat credentials and your naïve honesty hides a noble character. Write your ideas down and a mixture of emotion and smart thinking sets you apart.

Scorpio

Sunday’s Scorpio Moon is perfect for withdrawing into your psychic space. Meditation and dreamwork rewards the effort and your vision is grounded in the real word. Staid Saturn leaves you woebegone, but you have lots to look forward to with karmic credit heading your way. Save stress and plan your seasonal shopping strategy.

An eventful spell lands you in a quite different place to only a week ago. Mercury in Scorpio moves forwards and you are ready to commit to an audacious scheme that has been through different incarnations. Keep your eyes on the road, despite an emotional breakthrough, and you are better off free of an outworn commitment.

Bosses are receptive to your plans and you are a star without even trying. Monday’s Pisces Moon tips the balance your way for every kind of request.

Aries

People in power have a magnetic effect and you are drawn into a political game. Decide which you want most: freedom or control. Try tempting somebody around to your views and you bond in a taste for the outre. Mars, your ruler, masters you brief and Wednesday finds you on persuasive form. Putting down roots gives you more than you bargain for.

Gemini

Your dream career feels like it has no connection with the real world. Yet ruler Mercury and fantasy planet Neptune sing midweek and someone is receptive to your vision. Share your ideas and connect hearts and minds. A financial cushion gives you space for meaningful living, and your stock expands to match your charitable moves.

Leo

A family member gets off the fence and at last you can plan ahead. Your domestic scene changes as you revert back to your first love.

Virgo

You are in high-achieving mode and make up for a recent uncertainty principle. Nail your colours to the mast and keep people onside at the same time. By Wednesday your energy is cresting and a sociable feeling takes over the work-first agenda. You meet an overbearing deadline and a sympathetic touch wins payback down the line.

Libra

You tiptoe around a relationship summit meeting, but the moment of truth is here. Venus, your ruler, gives you real-world moves and you weigh love versus political clout. Wrestle back control even when part of you wants an all-new romantic scene. A financial wheeze comes together after you size up alternatives, and a long term scheme is best.
