I don’t know who wrote the Connections puzzle for December 6, but it sure looks like they are into astrology and music. Since I have little to no idea about the latter, I called on my musician colleague yet again. With his help, I got the Yellow category almost instantly.
Green came next, with zodiac symbols taking the cake. However, I did have to do a fair bit of Googling since I had no idea about the olden names of these symbols. I then moved on to the Blue category and again had half the help of my colleague, who helped me nail the record labels down.
The remaining four words in Purple were impossible to solve for me. So I just joined them all and got my category and the NYT Connections answer for December 6.
