Let’s be real here. Forgiving someone who hasn’t even had the decency to say sorry feels like trying to swallow glass. You’ve probably replayed the hurt a thousand times, rehearsed what you’d say if they ever admitted their mistake, and wondered why you’re the one carrying the weight of their actions. Yet here’s the thing that might surprise you: the forgiveness process doesn’t always need their participation.
December also opens with the Antares Star Gate Portal, a powerful time where we can reflect on themes surrounding forgiveness and acceptance. Some zodiac signs are experiencing a cosmic shift right now that’s practically pushing them toward letting go, whether there’s an apology on the table or not. It’s hard to say for sure, but sometimes the stars line up in ways that make us reconsider our grudges and the emotional real estate they’re taking up in our hearts.
Cancer: The Memory Keeper Finally Lets Go
Cancers live by the moon’s pull, so emotions arrive in waves – and old tides always return. They might forgive you over coffee, but a familiar scent can sweep them back to chapter one of the heartache. Psychologists call this rumination: replaying the same loop until it feels permanent. Honestly, if anyone knows how to hold onto hurt, it’s a Cancer. They don’t just remember what happened, they remember how the room smelled, what song was playing, and exactly what shoes they were wearing.
Yet something’s shifting this month. The December 4th Super Full Moon will amplify the energies and bring a softening to our hearts and minds. Cancer natives are starting to realize that their emotional filing cabinet is overflowing, and maybe it’s time for a purge. Forgiveness decreases anger, anxiety, and depression and increases self-esteem and hopefulness for the future. That doesn’t mean they’ve forgotten what happened or that they’re naive about the person who hurt them. They’re simply choosing their own peace over waiting for words that may never come.
Pisces: Swimming Away From Old Wounds
Saturn’s final phase in Pisces compels self-forgiveness and self-love, critical for lasting growth. Pisces has spent way too much time in their own head lately, swimming through every possible scenario of what went wrong and why. They’ve analyzed the situation from seventeen different angles, consulted their tarot deck, asked their friends for input, and probably written about it in their journal at three in the morning.
The love of Venus in Aries is awareness and embodiment of our own worth, a more intuitive relationship with knowing and going after our desires, and trust in our intuition, passion, and instincts. Spinning backward into Pisces, Venus retrograde is a time to heal ourselves through creativity, art, forgiveness, and compassion. This transit is basically forcing Pisces to channel their overthinking into something more productive than resentment. They’re learning that forgiveness isn’t about excusing bad behavior or pretending everything’s fine. It’s about releasing the anchor that’s been keeping them stuck in the same emotional spot for way too long.
Libra: Finding Balance Without an Apology
Libra values harmony above all else, so they’re usually quick to forgive. They hate conflict and will go out of their way to smooth things over, even if it means sacrificing their own feelings. Normally, Libra would be the first to extend an olive branch, maybe even apologizing for things that weren’t their fault just to restore peace. They’re the friend who ends up mediating everyone else’s drama because they physically cannot stand tension in their environment.
In 2025, those born under the sign of Libra will see excellent outcomes in many areas of their lives. This time around though, Libra is realizing that constantly keeping the peace has cost them pieces of themselves. They’re forgiving not because they want harmony at any cost, but because they’re tired of carrying someone else’s emotional debt. The person who hurt them might never understand what they did wrong, and Libra is finally okay with that. They’re choosing to close the chapter themselves rather than waiting for someone else to write the ending.
Sagittarius: Moving On to the Next Adventure
Sagittarius is all about freedom and moving forward. They’re not the type to hold onto a grudge because they’re too busy planning their next adventure. Sagittarius natives have probably already mentally moved on from whatever happened six months ago. They’ve got places to see, people to meet, and experiences to collect. Dwelling on old hurt feels like watching the same bad movie on repeat when there’s a whole streaming library waiting.
In 2025, Sagittarius natives will experience significant personal and professional growth, thanks to the expansive influence of Jupiter. Right now, they’re particularly feeling that pull toward bigger and better things. Forgiveness has profound benefits for our physical and mental health, reducing stress, anxiety, and improving overall well-being. For Sagittarius, forgiving someone who never apologized isn’t even really about that person anymore. It’s about refusing to let the past dictate their future trajectory. They’re the ones who’ll text you out of nowhere saying they forgive you, then immediately follow up with photos from their spontaneous road trip to somewhere you’ve never heard of.
The cosmic energies at play right now are opening doors that have been stuck shut for a while. These four signs aren’t forgiving because they’re weak or because they’ve forgotten what happened. They’re forgiving because carrying resentment around is exhausting, and they’ve got better things to do with their emotional energy. Sometimes the most radical act of self-care is letting go of something that was never yours to fix in the first place. What do you think about forgiving without an apology?
