Thursday, December 1
Transits involving Venus and Neptune fuel creativity, finance and romance. Today’s enterprising numerology of 1 works beautifully with Moon in sensitive Pisces to support assertive action on our dreams.
We’re still hard on the heels of last night’s opposition from sexy Venus to hot Mars, fueling passion and creative inspiration. The goddess planet also sextiles Saturn the builder, opening doors of opportunity for lasting results in our relationships, creative work and financial affairs.
A square from Mercury the messenger to Moon’s ruler, romantic Neptune, accents intuition and brings a magical touch to communications—however, it can also lead to confusion. We want to apply today’s energies with tried-and-true connections or for situations that relate to our long-term results. Avoid getting carried away by a sales pitch or mysterious love proposal.
Focus instead on projects, ties and connections you feel clear about, and take bold action.
At 8:41 pm (11:41 ET), Moon shifts from diplomatic Pisces to impatient Aries, favoring independent action or connections from a distance.
Affirmation:
Guardian angel (or spirit guides), please free me from distraction and direct my actions successfully now.
Friday, December 2
Moon in audacious Aries strengthens follow-through, while a Venus-Mars meetup yesterday and today’s cozy numerology of 2 support people connections. Finish something related to people; reach out to others.
Affirmation:
I am divinely directed in true connection, and I act on my guidance now.
Saturday, December 3
If you get a case of weekend “unpluggies”, resist the urge. This is the time to plan something important, and with Venus aspects still in force, continue to focus on building relationships, finances, or a creative project.
Neptune, planet of romance, art, and angels, has stationed to turn direct, and holds us in its spell. Spiritual events are favored, and intuition surges. This said, it’s wise to avoid hallucinogens, particularly in informal, recreational, or group settings. The station of the planet of psychism opens a portal to our deep minds, and this is a weekend to be selective of one’s company and surroundings.
We get a look at the inward development we’ve experienced since Neptune turned retrograde late last June. Dream work can be awesome. If you have a project involving spirituality, healing, intuition, biology, art, or media that has seemed stuck since then, it will now move more easily. With Neptune also ruling fortunate Jupiter in Pisces, such projects bring prosperity and joy.
Moon is in dynamic Aries, moving us out of our comfort zone. Luna sextiles ruler Mars and executive Saturn: this morning is restless and favorable for finishing work, decluttering the garage, or doing something that requires extra will or energy. We can reach out to a teacher, an elder, or someone in a position of authority. Or we can close a deal or get something organized—something related to the areas mentioned above.
In addition to these influences, Neptune’s turn sparks romance and awakens compassion, blending beautifully with afternoon and evening harmonies from Moon to Venus and Mercury, favoring good feelings and pleasant connections.
At 9:46 pm (12:46 am ET), Moon goes VOC. After this, save key connections and actions for tomorrow.
Affirmation:
Today is a portal for angels, who pour in, surrounding and going before me in all situations now.
Sunday, December 4
At 3:48 am (6:48 ET), Moon enters Taurus, sign of her exaltation. Taurus’ ruler Venus squares Neptune. Although the square is tense, the sweet nature of both planets is awakened by their meeting. Creativity and compassion expand, connections with spirit guides and angels are strengthened.
Their energy is mystical, but today’s numerology of 4 radiates discipline that we can apply in work, combining with the practical Taurus Moon to facilitate progress in business, finance, or—even if we hold to today’s romantic and spiritual energies—tangible results of some kind.
Moon in Taurus likes the good life, and we could gather to strengthen our bonds with family, friends or cohorts.
Affirmation:
My Universe loves me and supports me in right action and rich results, now and always.
Monday, December 5
Moon, exalted in Taurus, favors work, finances, practical manifestation, and shared pleasures. Take someone to breakfast—your love object, a close friend, a family member, or a key contact. Make people connections early, before 9:38 am (12:38 pm) when Moon joins Uranus, planet of surprises, and from this moment on loses the sensual, easy-going charm ascribed to the Taurus placement.
Today’s Moon-Uranus conjunction reconnects with the energy of last month’s Full Moon Eclipse, a lunation that sparked new directions. We can intuitively connect with a freer path towards abundance. This aspect also facilitates clarification of our authentic values, perhaps updating them. It mobilizes our activist spirit and fuels creative inspiration. It isn’t so great on diplomacy; neither is Moon’s square to stern Saturn that comes later in the day. Both aspects favor independent work, study, and decluttering.
A square from mental Mercury to expansive Jupiter sharpens intuition and is good for structuring an argument, negotiation, sermon, sales pitch or legal case. We don’t actually want to share our message until after 10:37 pm (1:37 ET am), when Moon comes out of the brambles, forming a sextile with enchanting Neptune. This is great for romance, a production involving media, music and art, creative visualization and contacts with a prayer partner, healer or angels, influences that continue through midday tomorrow.
Affirmation:
I am not alone or without support. Spirit is with me, and Spirit has infinite substance that it uses to manifest supply and security for me, right here and right now.
Tuesday, December 6
With today’s prosperous numerology of 6 and Moon in Taurus, sign of her exaltation, early morning is great for people connections of all kinds.
After 6:51 am (9:51 ET), we might turn our focus to relationships of a deeper or more intimate nature. Moon trines intense Pluto, giving depth to our emotions, courage to our decisions, and strength to our intuition. We can get to the bottom of something, do shadow work, emotional healing, or find a new level of honesty. This an earth trine that also benefits business and finance.
At 11:02 am (2:02 pm), Moon sextiles expansive Jupiter. Give a class, launch a promotion, close a deal, promote a cause, product or service, inspire someone, hire a publicist, connect with your public.
At 12:49 pm (3:49 ET), Moon makes her entrance into loquacious Gemini, where she continues to favor communication and becomes increasingly intense as she moves to perfect her Third Quarter at tomorrow’s Full Moon.
Today’s numerology of 6 connects with Jupiter. This planet of promotion, optimism, broadcasting, and fortune continues to combine nicely with Moon in loquacious Gemini. We might go on a business trip, work on correspondence, give a presentation, write to Congress, make calls, write copy, give a speech, voice a viewpoint, or obtain and sign a contract. With Mercury in its last days of direct mode, these hours are good for shopping, communicating and starting something.
Affirmation:
I am a child of the Creator, who touches me lovingly through all circumstances and conditions, so only good comes forth in my mind, body and finances, here and now.
Wednesday, December 7
Today’s Full Moon portal has explosive potential, and calls us to apply our cerebral and spiritual aptitudes and to steer clear of direct confrontation.
Luna in Gemini spotlights our personal communications. We can gather information, reconnect with our network, express an idea, close a sale, and take care of the details required to consolidate the bigger picture or vision of our lives (a picture fueled by Sun in Sagittarius).
Yes, communications are highlighted, but they’re not exactly run-of-the-mill. The aspects around this lunation are most stressful. Luna is in exact conjunction to rowdy Mars and with Sun, forms a T-square slippery Neptune and sometimes-over-the-top Jupiter. Emotional overload may cause us to lash out; there’s a potential for loud confrontation, confusion, and deception.
True to Gemini form, this lunation has dual potential. Despite all the pressure and intense, aggressive emotions, there are helpful influences. Luna makes an exact semisextile to last month’s Eclipse in Taurus, and will bring issues to light that were triggered by that lunation: our needs for freedom, to reaffirm our authentic values and to explore new directions in relationships and finance. Ideas and messages we’ve been holding in will bubble forth. We can find the words to express ourselves. The energies are assertive and bold, so much so that they can trigger bellicosity and defensive-offensive reactions. There are four paths to harmonious outcomes:
- Sun and Moon harmonize with Saturn: we can ground this energy by focusing on long-term outcomes and priorities, and if in doubt, resort to a guide, teacher or authority figure of some kind.
- Jupiter and Neptune in Pisces facilitate contacts with angels, and the square from Mars indicates intuitively-guided actions and success in promoting a spiritual or humanitarian enterprise.
- Mercury is conjunct Venus, planet of love. Before speaking, negotiating or setting limits, we can connect with our heart energy.
- The Sabian symbol (below) sums up the challenge and potential of today’s Full Moon, with its strong Mars and also mental energy.
At 17 Gemini, the Sabian symbol says:
THE HEAD OF A ROBUST YOUTH CHANGES INTO THAT OF A MATURE THINKER. The transformation of physical vitality into the power to build concepts and intellectual formulations through which knowledge can be transferred… transformation of emotions into mind, of instincts into thoughts, a process of MENTAL METAMORPHOSIS.
It is worth using this portal to step up our assertive self-expression. To avoid unnecessary pain, we can prepare by applying a range of cognitive abilities: reason, emotion, intuition, and compassion.
Speak your best, bravest, kindest words. Avoid lashing out, give yourself space to apply your powers of heart and head, release pettiness, consider long-term consequences, choose your most dexterous means of expression, design a strategy. But speak. What needs to be said. Today.
Affirmation:
I trust in my abilities and use them to say what I feel and think, here and now.
Thursday, December 8
Today’s numerology of 8 supports tangible results and lifting ourselves to a higher level. So we want to move forward, yet should do so with a certain amount of caution, as in the portal of yesterday’s Full Moon, the energies remain tense.
Moon in Gemini continues to spotlight communication, from sharing our ideas or a proposal to catching up on messages, closing a sale or reaching out to clients, colleagues and siblings. But Moon’s only harmony is a trine to Saturn, urging us to remain focused on long-term goals. Be focused and brave, but try to hold to your own emotional space and if you’re triggered, breathe deeply and avoid answering on impulse.
Venus is approaching a square to Jupiter, fueling romance and inspiration and activating a T-square with Moon that makes tonight romantic and magical. Take in an inspiring movie, do a spontaneous act of kindness, visualize happy relationships, love your spirit guides.
At 10:13 pm (1:13 am) Moon goes VOC, entering sensitive Cancer at 11:49 pm (2:49 am ET).
Affirmation:
My wellness cannot be limited. I am child of the divine, sustained in wholeness and success, now and always.
Friday, December 9
The tension of the last few days eases as Moon in empathetic Cancer mingles with the square from sweet Venus to jovial Jupiter, blending energies of love and fortune, harmonizing our minds, supporting prosperity, and facilitating expression of kindness and affection.
Today’s numerology of 9 relates to dharma, and we can give way to generous impulses, meditate on forgiveness or teach just for the joy of it.
The number 9 is also introverted, and favors sharing affection in more private, inner and quiet ways.
Affirmation:
I release myself to love in ways that flow for me and through me now.
Saturday, December 10
Today’s entrepreneurial numerology of 1 accents the business instincts of Moon in Cancer. We can consult our intuition and take bold action. Moon’s morning sextile to rebel Uranus opens doors of opportunity in new financial directions. With Moon in fertile Cancer and Uranus in Taurus, sign of abundance, this valuable aspect can bring happy financial surprises.
We’re still on the portal of yesterday’s Venus-Jupiter contact, further supporting good fortune.
A late trine from Moon to subtle Neptune fuels romance, psychic experiences and consultations and angel connections.
Affirmation:
I give thanks for the new channels of abundance that open for me, here and now.
Sunday, December 11
An early opposition from Moon in sensitive Cancer to Pluto-the-plumber favors dream work, journaling, therapy, decluttering, or researching family history. Avoid hallucinogens and psychic meetings or connecting with those on the other side, as intense portals can be opened.
Things get lighter and connections flow more smoothly after 10:49 am (1:49 pm), when Moon trines Jupiter, aspecting Venus six hours later.
At 12:09 pm (3:09 ET), Moon enters playful Leo. Afternoon and evening are great for going out, socializing, romancing, connecting with angels and even doing business.
Today’s numerology of 11 triggers a bridge to the angelic dimensions, when light beings can more easily our heart radiation to lift the planetary vibration. Let’s radiate.
Affirmation:
I send love to myself, to those who have offended me and to all others, and angels weave healing substance with my heart-radiation now.
Monday, December 12
With Moon in radiant Leo, our confidence is high. Today’s numerology of 3 accents the creative side of this placement.
This morning, Moon sextiles Saturn, offering opportunities for progress in discipline, work, stability, romance in stable partnerships, business, and with a teacher, elder or authority figure of some kind. Afternoon continues to be favorable for work and tangible results in creative endeavors.
At 5:04 pm (8:04 ET), Moon makes another sextile, this time to focused Mars. We are emboldened and can have great results from exercise, sales initiatives, crisis intervention or a campaign of some kind. Leo and Mars both come on strong, so we can try not to be too pushy.
At 7:47 pm (10:47 ET), eagerness may morph into neurosis as sensitive Moon squares jumpy Uranus. The combination is great for independent, creative activities, enjoying sports, or research and armchair activism directed at helping children.
Affirmation:
I do my best and leave the rest to Spirit, here and now.
Tuesday, December 13
The day starts with an irritating, fixed opposition from Moon in strong Leo to stalwart Saturn in stubborn Aquarius. Then, at 7:52 am (10:52 ET), Moon goes VOC, where she’ll be all day.
We might take some time off, do low-key activities in nature, enjoy a Christmas fair or concert, or play games by the fireplace.
Have fun and save key actions and connections for tomorrow.
Affirmation:
Joy, joy, joy. I resonate with joy and my vibration rises now.
Wednesday, December 14
Today we can connect with our intuition, healing abilities and sense of mission.
At 12:45 am (3:45 ET), Moon enters diligent Virgo where it favors practical organization, attention to detail, and service-oriented initiatives. This morning, we can declutter, put papers in order, and take care of boring details.
A square from Sagittarius Sun to mystical Neptune fuels new possibilities, stimulating creativity, compassion and romance. We can gather materials for a vision board or similar tools for visualization. This transit also awakens intuition. Combined with Virgo’s dedicated spirit, it can foment a sense of mission, fuel devotional practices, and optimize our healing powers.
At 12:32 pm (3:32 ET), Moon trines Venus. The rest of the afternoon and evening are good for connecting with family, colleagues, people we’re helping, or a stable partner or serious love interest.
Affirmation:
Archangel Raphael, please take me to heal those who most need it in my dreams tonight.
Thursday, December 15
Thanks to Moon in applied Virgo, we can ground today’s restlessness and impatience in constructive, independent action.
Mercury makes a quincunx to pushy Mars, sparking confident thoughts and assertive words. However, it can fuel irritability and doesn’t favor communication unless you’re a coach yelling across the field, a drill sergeant directing troops, or a street protestor. We can use this loud energy to start or support an online petition or campaign.
In general, with this quincunx and Moon’s connections to feisty Mars, rebel Uranus, and strict Saturn, today is better for independent activities that require energy in Virgo areas like decluttering our papers or space, cleaning the bathroom, eliminating obsolete files from the computer, doing home repairs, and completing an old project.
Today’s Virgo Moon can be overly critical, especially of ourselves. We can balance these energies by enjoying nature, hanging with pets and listening to soft music or healing music. The Mars transits are good for pushing aside perfectionism to finish something, and with Moon reaching her Fourth Quarter early tomorrow, it’s worth our time to make that push.
Affirmation:
Divine love is working in my mind, words and actions, producing perfect results, here and now.
Friday, December 16
At 12:56 am (3:56 ET), Moon reaches her Fourth Quarter, beginning a lunar week that favors winding down and finishing something we already have started.
The Sabian symbol for 25 Virgo is:
A FLAG AT HALF-MAST IN FRONT OF A PUBLIC BUILDING… The social acknowledgement of a job well-done… the ability to carry out any task to the ultimate of its fulfillment… service to humankind… PUBLIC RECOGNITION.
At 6:25 am (9:25 ET), Moon trines Pluto the powerful. We can look at the shadows, focus on emotional healing, heal another, or, with earth signs involved, take bold action in work, finance or business.
At 11:13 pm (2:13 ET), Moon goes VOC. Take a break until 11:49 pm (2:49 ET), when Moon enters Libra.
Finally! We get an afternoon and evening that favor relaxed socializing or romance. We could also work on something creative or retouch our home décor, but in view of the on-and-off nerdy weekend coming up, it’s worth sharing a nice dinner, coffee, wine or tea with pleasant company tonight.
Affirmation:
I create a pause for love, and my energy is renewed now.
Saturday, December 17
Morning is the best time for people connections, with Moon in sweet Libra contacting ruler Venus. Today’s numerology of 8 favors doing business or getting concrete results in work, finance, or something else we’ve been going for.
At 11:44 am (2:44 pm ET), Moon connects with pushy Mars, not a comfy paring, but one that increases our energy to declutter our space or, with the rest of today’s aspects, fight for justice. We can do this through correspondence, online petitions, or a similar means that doesn’t involve direct personal contact, as these energies are pretty tense.
Or, we could get a hair or beauty treatment.
In early afternoon, Mercury trines Uranus. These two are the planets of lower and higher mind that together awaken our genius, facilitating breakthroughs in research, activism, communication or, with their placements in Virgo and Taurus, business—particularly business related to the web or to health.
Affirmation:
I give thanks for my time alone and use it wisely now.
Sunday, December 18
A contact from sweet Venus to dynamic Mars fuels romance and creativity, adding excitement to all kinds of contacts.
With Moon contacting both organized Saturn in Aquarius and mystical Neptune in Pisces, morning is good for devotional discipline or for organizing bookshelves, reading spiritual literature, and doing creative or volunteer work. This window is also good for preparing gifts and messages for the holidays, for business, or for devoting attention to a connection that we wish to last.
This afternoon we get a nice little interlude of warmth and confidence, as at 2:03 pm (5:03 ET), Libra Moon sextiles Sun in Sagittarius, opening a tiny little window of 32 minutes that’s great for connecting.
Then at 2:35 pm (5:35 ET), Moon goes VOC on a square to Pluto. On the challenging side, we may get pulled into a power struggle or experience dark feelings. This would be a great time to call on the angels, do journaling, work on self-healing, or heal another.
At 7:31 pm (10:31 ET), Moon enters introverted, passionate Scorpio. Have a heart-to-heart talk, watch a deep movie, make love.
Affirmation:
Guardian Angel, please help me experience my feelings in freeing, healthful ways now.
Monday, December 19
With Moon in sultry Scorpio, and flirtatious Venus contacting hot Mars, passion is in the air. Scorpio Moon is also courageous. We can take clear action to express warm feelings or, with today’s bold numerology of 1, rekindle romance in an existing or previous relationship. Passion isn’t always lust, and we can reach out to strengthen any key connection, whether personal, professional, or even with the public. These energies are also good for pushing to consolidate a creative project.
With Moon in sextile to sweet Venus, afternoon and evening are particularly favorable for people connections.
Affirmation:
I reach out in warmth, and my connections are renewed, here and now.
Tuesday, December 20
This is a big day, with expansive Jupiter activating the critical 0 degree of Aries as it leaves gentle Pisces. The year is winding down, we’re at the end of a Moon cycle, and Mercury is in pre-retrograde shadow—yet Jupiter sends us a strong influx of enterprising energy that we can use in direct action to finish something we started previously.
The best times to act and connect are early morning, when Moon’s sextile to Mercury the messenger opens doors with contacts, siblings, sales and communications of all kinds.
Give yourself a break at 8:41 am (11:41 ET), when Moon makes a square to Saturn that isn’t so comfortable, although it can be great for organizing the bookcase.
We can get in flow again at 11:01 am (2:01 pm ET), when Moon in deep Scorpio trines sensitive Neptune. This harmony facilitates emotional healing, having a therapy session, journaling, connecting with angels, and enjoying music. It’s also great for reviewing our visualization materials and getting rid of obsolete ones as we prepare to seed new intentions and images at Friday’s New Moon in Capricorn.
Take action and make people connections before 6:45 pm (9:45 ET), when Moon goes VOC, entering Sagittarius at 11:12 pm (2:12 am ET).
Affirmation:
My clear images activate a quantum field that opens the way for new results, now and always.
Wednesday, December 21
Happy Solstice!
At 1:48 pm (4:48 ET), Sun enters Capricorn, marking the Winter Solstice and the beginning of a new solar year. (Read about the interesting square from Sun to Jupiter in the Solstice chart and what it means for the astrological New Year and all of 2023 in our December General Influences.)
Sun triggers the critical degree of 0 Capricorn, squaring Jupiter exactly, and triggering our desire to move ahead with renewed personal vision.
On the doorstep of Friday’s New Moon, today is great for setting our intentions. Moon in Sagittarius combines with the Sun-Jupiter square to favor outdoor rituals or those that are in some way adventurous and connected with ancestral or foreign traditions.
As for daily activities, the Jupiter-Capricorn emphasis favors work, legal matters, trade, and socializing.
Get these covered before 5:48 pm (8:48 ET), when Moon opposes bellicose Mars, triggering aggressive-defensive reactions—energy we can best direct by writing to Congress or starting an online petition.
Affirmation:
From our inner darkness a ray rises, and angels gather to support this new life now.
Thursday, December 22
We get another exciting, energizing day as Venus, planet of love, values, and finances, trines rebel Uranus. We feel expansive, emboldened to define our true values, and to try new ways of relating and generating money.
A change in circumstances frees us in newer, easier directions. But, avoid the temptation to leap into over-committing to something new. Instead, appreciate and observe the shifts, the changes your inner being longs for and possibly, a need for closure in an obsolete situation.
Work is best this morning and afternoon before 12:16 pm (3:16 ET), when Moon makes a square to psychic Neptune. The rest of the day favors romance, calling on angels, prayer, acts of compassion, and spiritual connections. It’s also great for gathering materials to make a New Moon/New Year’s vision board we can put together tomorrow.
At 11:49 pm (2:49 am ET), Moon becomes completely new in Capricorn.
Affirmation:
I release situations and let the infinite adjust them in perfect order now.
Friday, December 23
Two days, or rather one and one-half days after the Winter Solstice, we get a New Moon. It’s still in orb of the critical degree of 1-3° of a cardinal sign (Capricorn), and closely squares Jupiter, still at the critical 0 degree of Aries. Today’s numerology of 5 also connects with Mars, giving this Moon a restlessness.
Jupiter, Aries and Capricorn are forward thinkers, and this is a great day to reiterate or refine our Solstice intention, and write down something we want to manifest in the areas related to the 10th sign, Capricorn, that in this case wears a special Jupiterian sparkle.
Mercury goes fully retrograde today, so rather than starting something new, we want to retrieve or follow up on things we began sometime previously, particularly those related to:
- Self-discipline
- Administration
- Order in daily schedules or rhythms
- A family business
- Teachers or elders
- Work, profession and other long-term goals
- Politics
- Law and legislation
- Educational institutions and hierarchies
- Leadership
- Asserting our authority or creating contexts to respect the authority of others
- Goals for business
- Goals for finance
- Security
- Structured strategies for the future
- Promotion of any of the above
We can write down a concrete intention for one of these areas, and make a vision board.
Most of day is good for activities related to business and politics that require focus and courage.
At 1-2 Capricorn, the Sabian symbol for today’s lunation says:
THREE ROSE WINDOWS IN A GOTHIC CHURCH, ONE DAMAGED BY WAR… Which part of man’s principles tends to be destroyed by the use of violence? Evidently, love and compassion.
Affirmation:
I give thanks for the divine darkness that supports my new beginnings now.
Saturday, December 24
In contrast to last year, this is a harmonious, pleasant Christmas Eve. With Mercury the messenger in sextile to Neptune, it can even be magical, mystical and healing. We’re still on the portal of the New Moon, giving extra force to today’s focused actions and intentions.
As the day begins, we get a wee-hour trine from Moon to Uranus. Though Moon is in conservative Capricorn, we’re feeling independent. Get in touch with your free voice and write down your dream of a Merry Christmas, perhaps different from the traditional idea. Luna then moves into conjunctions with Venus and Mercury, planets of love and communication, and reiterates Mercury’s sextile to Neptune.
Today’s numerology of 6 favors gatherings and in resonance with Jupiter, fuels joy, fun, and prosperity.
At 7:11 pm (10:11 ET), Moon goes VOC, entering wild Aquarius at 11:14 pm (2:14 am ET), and less than an hour later making a sextile to jolly Jupiter. We can stay up and socialize, put out cookies and wait for Santa, meditate, pray, write to the angels.
Affirmation:
Angels, please hold open the doorway of hope that is opened tonight by children expecting Santa now.
Sunday, December 25
Merry Christmas! Yesterday’s harmonious energies linger, although Moon in Aquarius may make us prefer independence. Aquarius is good for enjoying friends, creative activities, and taking a look at politics (make sure they don’t sneak anything past us over the holidays).
Today’s numerology of 7 resonates with Aquarius, bringing out the studious, intellectual side of this lunar placement. Do research for fun, enjoy new books, or exchange them for titles you prefer.
This afternoon, Moon trines vital Mars, followed by a late-night square to Aquarius’ ruler, Uranus the rebel. Diplomacy isn’t so easy to come by, but we could help out at a soup kitchen or crisis center. Or walk the eggnog off.
Affirmation:
I bless the love that unites all beings and give thanks for my vibrational family now.
Monday, December 26
After a magical several days, we come back to earth. Today’s numerology of 8 likes to consolidate tangible fruits of our progress.
As she rises this morning, Moon in independent Aquarius still carries the flavor she picked up from wild Uranus last night. We want to focus on our independent projects and intentions.
At 10:19 am (1:19 pm ET), Luna goes VOC on a conjunction to strict Saturn. This is a combination that can feel gloomy, but is good for decluttering and getting our space and work organized.
At 11:34 pm (2:34 ET), Moon shifts into gentle Pisces.
Affirmation:
My heart speaks, and I heed its guidance now.
Tuesday, December 27
Moon in sensitive Pisces blends beautifully with the approaching sextile from sweet Venus to mystical Neptune, making for a gentle, romantic day.
Today’s numerology of 9 relates to closing cycles, as does Pisces, making today great for practicing forgiveness, delving into esoteric studies, attending or holding a spiritual gathering, serving others or the environment, cleaning out closets, and contacting light beings.
On the doorstep of a sextile from sweet Venus to Moon’s ruler Neptune, love is in the air, in the water, and in our heart chakras. Attitudes are softened, creative inspiration flows and so do opportunities for romance, creative progress, and financial expansion. The energy is beautiful, but resist the temptation to just chill. The opportunities may be subtle and require attention to identify so that we can act on them.
At 3:54 pm (6:54 ET), Moon squares pushy Mars, which can fuel emotional reactivity. We can avoid an unnecessary argument, and if we feel offended, think before we act. The imminent Venus-Neptune sextile helps override bad vibes.
Affirmation:
Angels surround my pathway and hold me in my best and highest good, now and always.
Wednesday, December 28
Venus, planet of personal love, sextiles angelic Neptune. This, along with today’s pioneering numerology of 1, makes it a good day for taking action on opportunities in our personal relationships, finances, spiritual and creative projects or contacts with the invisible realm.
Venus imparts a warm touch to the energy of cosmic Neptune. On the portal of the waxing Moon, we can build for unity and closeness, infuse our lives with romance, or give impulse to a profitable endeavor.
Affirmation:
My heart is made of divine substance that lifts me into the highest love frequencies and attracts harmony and joy into my life, here and now.
Thursday, December 29
At 2:36 am (5:36 ET), Moon enters Aries. This is a bold placement that favors leadership, progress with a short-term goal, and pushing through resistance to get something done.
This energetic Moon joins affable Jupiter, complimenting Aries’ promotional aptitudes. Moon in impatient Aries generally favors self-directed activities, but today’s transits soften this independent edge. Mercury the Messenger joins sweet Venus, imbuing our communications with love and facilitating romance, harmony and favorable connections of all kinds. This is a good day to catch up on holiday greetings, send messages, or promote a cause, service or product.
At 5:21 pm (8:21 ET), Moon reaches her Second Quarter. We can pause and review our progress on intentions seeded at the recent New Moon and outline a plan for New Year’s action.
At 8-9 Aries, the Sabian symbol says:
A CRYSTAL GAZER. The development of an inner realization of organic wholeness… CONCENTRATED ATTENTION.
At 7:21 pm (10:21 ET), Moon sextiles Aries’ ruler, Mars, making evening more assertive. We can push to finish something related to communications, sales, crisis intervention, activism.… It’s more dexterous to push ourselves. and avoid pushing others.
Affirmation:
I am grateful for the opportunities that I’ve had, the opportunities I have and the opportunities that are on the way now.
Friday, December 30
Sun makes a quincunx to Mars, pushing us to act and shaking us out of our diplomacy zone. Most of the day is good for doing something that requires vitality, perhaps a holiday declutter session or a brisk workout or walk. Today’s numerology of 3 favors people connections, partying and creating beauty. The number 3 relates to Venus, extending yesterday’s window, and favoring moving out of our comfort zone to reach out to others. Just take care to avoid rude remarks and reactions.
An evening sextile from Moon to structured Saturn favors business, reaching out to a teacher or elder or getting ourselves organized.
Affirmation:
Angels of compassion, please fill my mind with gentleness and kind perceptions, now and always.
Saturday, December 31
The wee hours are good for making love and connecting with angels. That is until 4:44 am (7:44 ET), when Moon goes VOC on a square to intense Pluto.
We could just sleep through it until 9:04 am (12:04 pm ET), when Luna enters Taurus, sign of her exaltation.
This is a great New Year’s placement, favoring the good life. Enjoy food, nature, music. Appreciate art, show empathy, add spice and romance to intimate relationships, rekindle an old flame, or work on self-esteem or home affairs.
Happy New Year!
Affirmation:
I give thanks for the angels and guides that surround, protect and support us in our best and highest New Year now.

Angels are here to help us deepen our hidden powers—from healing, compassion, and transmutation to faith, courage, focus, and manifestation. But these light beings are not alone. Crystal Pomeroy shares their ancient connections to goddesses worldwide. Learn who they are, how they can help, and what you can do to receive their support.
