The super full moon on December 5 warns you against acting impulsively

The last full moon of 2025 on December 5 may be a supermoon, but according to Jetteke van Lexmond, co-founder of the Moonsisters and their well-known lunar calendar, a powerful, energetic turning point had already occurred at the end of November. The reason for this caesura: Saturn and Mercury had become direct again after their retrograde: “When Saturn went direct in Pisces on November 28, the months-long fog slowly began to lift. After a period in which old fears, patterns and blockages came to light, clarity is now gradually returning,” says the expert. “Now, you can see what your inner work has brought you: stronger boundaries, greater confidence and a more pronounced sense of direction.” Saturn also encourages us to take our intuition seriously and to consciously complete everything that is ready to be completed in the coming months.

After Saturn, Mercury also went direct on November 29 in the sign of Scorpio. Van Lexmond explains, “Although the planet will remain in its shadow phase until mid-December and misunderstandings or delays are still possible, your mind is already slowly awakening. It’s as if the underworld of your thoughts is being illuminated again.” You may suddenly gain insights into old wounds, recurring patterns or once unfinished conversations. “Things that you were previously unable to put into words are now coming together. However, this is not yet the right time to resolve conflicts; the energy calls for calm and observation.”

Don’t be tempted to act impulsively in December

“You can now see and feel more clearly which path lies ahead of you and which first steps you should take,” the Moonsisters reveal. “Don’t get carried away by the quick temper of Gemini (the sigh that the full moon is in) and the enthusiastic energy of the ongoing Sagittarius season. These two dynamic forces can sometimes work together and tempt you to take impulsive action. Take your time and slow down, just as nature does.”

According to van Lexmond, the energy of December invites you to “steer your future with gentle but steady force.” This is necessary because the atmosphere of 2026 will be completely different from that of 2025. The moon expert explains, “We are moving from the calm, emotional realm of water and earth to the fast, dynamic qualities of air and fire. The last remnants of Pisces energy are slowly fading, while the fiery, action-oriented current of 2026 is already making itself felt.”

The supermoon in December brings curiosity and new perspectives

After the full moon in November was the biggest supermoon of the year, the full moon on December 5 in Gemini is another supermoon that bathes everything in crystal clear light. “This moon amplifies what lives within you and reveals it in a new, sharp yet gentle light, so that you can recognise the essence of situations—and of yourself—more clearly,” says van Lexmond.
