Theme: Clearing Out

The best way to cope with the peak tension between Saturn and Uranus is to let go of what is not working in our lives. If we are not conscious of the stress, or if we hang on to the status quo, illness and accidents are very possible. Happy Holidays! (lol) There is also energy for pleasant social encounters. Neptune adds a mystical force to the day. Be patient with others, and beware of potential misunderstandings. You only struggle because you’re ready to grow but aren’t willing to let go. ~Drew Gerald

Theme: Serving Others

The Moon is in a particularly powerful position today. It is in Virgo, whose highest expression is to be humbly useful. We seek freedom early in the day. Then we have an ease of harmony between our activities and our purpose. But we are irritable and hasty late in the day. It is best to work off extra energy, and be careful with machinery. Be gentle in relationships because Pluto’s intensity is affecting them. The only thing that is meaningful is to make this life a vehicle by which you can come to benefit beings. ~Jetsunma Ahkon Norbu Lhamo

The Moon is void of course from 1:41 am until 3:25 am. It is best not to make any major decisions during this time period.

Theme: What are you Building?

The Sun has joined Mercury, Venus and Pluto in the ambitious sign, Capricorn. This is not an ordinary foursome. Pluto continues to destroy our norms and structures for 3 more years. Uranus, the disrupter, has 4 more years to disturb what we own and value. I think that they are working together, but I can’t prove it! So can we let go of ego-centric fears and build on the solid foundation of compassion and honesty? Or are we caught in seemingly self-serving delusions? We learned about honesty and integrity – that the truth matters… that you don’t take shortcuts or play by your own set of rules… and success doesn’t count unless you earned it fair and square. ~Michelle Obama

Theme: Home and Family

The Moon is in Cancer, its home sign, for a few days. We feel more emotionally secure, and turn our attention towards home and family. Venus, our relational energy, is now retrograde until the end of January. We become more introspective about our relationships, and more reserved with money. In 2 days the Sun will join 3 planets in the sign of Capricorn, which will turn our focus even more towards worldly achievements. A man travels the world over in search of what he needs and returns home to find it. ~George A. Moore

The Moon is void of course from 1:03 am until 4:43 am EST. Do not make any big decisions during this time period

Theme: Spiritual Dimensions

Through the middle of the day, the Moon is “squaring” Neptune which adds to the spiritual potential that we have with Jupiter harmonizing with the Sun for a few days. It is better to pray, meditate and work selflessly, than to plan and work with self interest. Later in the day the full Moon will be easier than usual, thanks to broad-minded Jupiter. Relationships continue to have a subconscious drive element. This added intensity will be present until the end of the month. As you breathe in, cherish yourself. As you breathe out, cherish all beings. ~H H the Dalai Lama

Theme: A Beneficial 4 days

Good can come in a lot of ways for the next several days. This is because the Sun and Jupiter are in a positive 60 degree angle now. Working with others, including authorities, accomplishing objectives, and planning for the future are all favored. There is a nice balance of all 4 elements in the sky, which supports inspiration, practicality, thinking and socializing, and emotions and intuition. In the middle of the day we have extra discipline to draw on. Success is where preparation and opportunity meet. ~Bobby Unser
