Friday, December 1
Mercury’s entrance into ambitious Capricorn combines with today’s dynamic numerology of 1 to support work activities and connections.
With Moon in sensitive Cancer squaring Venus, Lady of Luck, followed by an opposition to intense Pluto, early morning isn’t so great for people contacts, but it is great for creative visualization of finances, and for spiritual and emotional healing.
At 8:00 am (11:00 am ET), Luna enters dramatic Leo, complimenting today’s bold numerology of 1 to favor action on a project we started sometime before November 25, when Mercury entered pre-retrograde shadow. Tensions to Mercury in Capricorn and strict Saturn bring out Moon’s productive focus, making the rest of the day great for PR, sending Christmas greetings to clients or colleagues, taking care of the details for a company’s Christmas or Solstice event, or anything combining Leo’s flare, social inclinations and creativity with business.
Make people contacts before 6:46 pm (9:46 pm ET), when Moon trines pushy Mars, followed by a square to loud-mouth Jupiter. Avoid arguing or criticizing. Do armchair activism, review, retouch or relaunch a promotion, or take in an action film.
Affirmation:
Angels and spirit guides, please direct me to connect with my true priorities for this month, to visualize them as done, and to focus on them in thought and action now.
Saturday, December 2
The socially oriented numerology of 2 combines with Moon in strong Leo and planetary aspects that favor business connections.
Moon trines ruler Sun, bolstering confidence, while a sextile from Mercury the messenger to Saturn the builder brings opportunities for communications in business, work, finance, education, and for successful contacts with authority figures (like a boss, teacher, or elder).
On the doorstep of tomorrow’s intense major aspects, use today to reach out to people who are apt to respond well and, whoever you communicate with, apply diplomacy. These suggestions also go for social and family connections, which can be pleasant and constructive if we’re selective and gentle.
Affirmation:
Only good can enter my world, so everything and everybody benefits me now.
Sunday, December 3
Emboldening aspects help us make change—but tread lightly, as they also can lead to confrontation or crisis.
Combined with a square from Venus to Pluto and a quincunx from Mars to Jupiter, Moon in Leo comes on strong. These aspects create tension, but can fuel assertiveness.
When the goddess (Venus) challenges the godfather planet (Pluto), she sparks passion—about relationships, intimacy, self-esteem, finance, and our deepest wants. An attraction or change of some kind can fuel these issues. We may go into emotional overwhelm or feel pulled irresistibly into a dynamic involving power, lust or the shadow side of relationships. Hold onto your chair, avoid rash decisions, take note of how you feel and how you can put more love into your healing, your values and, with Pluto in Capricorn, your goals.
Contributing to our restlessness, the quincunx from pushy Mars to wild Jupiter spurs us to get our points across. But, it’s easy to get worked up and come on too strong.
Both of these aspects are emboldening and can move us out of our comfort zone to go for what we want. There’s a potential for rage or intense confrontation, so we may want to resist the impulse to push things and keep a low profile, using their impetus to do a bit of detective work and strategize for future action. We may also arrange for a therapy appointment or connection with a guide or coach, to avoid overwhelm and get on the train of positive change.
At 6:11 pm (9:11 ET), Moon goes VOC, entering practical Virgo at 7:50 pm (10:50 ET), followed by Moon’s opposition to stern Saturn, an influence that can be depressing and cold, although good for decluttering or organizing our space.
Affirmation:
In the midst of apparent challenge, Spirit sends any support we need, now and always..
Monday, December 4
Morning is good for following up on communications and organizing documents, tasks and commitments. Afternoon favors self-healing, deep cleaning, decluttering.
Moon trines Mercury in executive Capricorn and Jupiter in Taurus, sign of prosperity, favoring communications for work, finance, service and, thanks to Virgo’s devotional inclinations, using words for healing, prayer and angel connections. We’re still in orb of yesterday’s strong transits, so we might choose to keep a fairly low profile and focus on practical or spiritual concerns.
At 11:51 am (2:51 pm ET), we may get an emotional overload. Sentimental Venus leaves light Libra and enters Scorpio, sign of emotional shadows, bringing a dark intensity to our connections. Just one minute later, Moon squares Scorpio’s coruler, feisty Mars. This square can sting and it’s best to plan for independent activities. Take a hot bath, tackle some heavy cleaning (be careful with machinery and blades), declutter the kitchen or your self-improvement library. Make an appointment with a therapist. Avoid potentially toxic encounters, an unnecessary argument or coming on too strong.
With Venus, planet of love and values, approaching a trine with Saturn the builder, we can make plans to support something related to authority, security, government.
At 9:49 pm (12:49 am ET), Moon reaches her Fourth Quarter, combining with Mercury’s shadow phase to favor action on projects we began previously.
At 12-13 Virgo, the Sabian symbol says:
A POWERFUL STATESMAN OVERCOMES A STATE OF POLITICAL HYSTERIA… The focusing of the collective need for order and structural interdependence into a personage who incarnates the answer to this need… We have before us a personage endowed with CHARISMA, this elusive and mysterious power that comes from a man’s or woman’s openness to the power of planetary evolution.
Affirmation:
We are not alone or without effective leadership, the divine leader is with us, working through people and situations to guide us constructively, now and always..
Tuesday, December 5
Listen to intuition, fuel important relationships, take practical action.
Neptune, planet of the subtle realms, is stationing to turn direct, bringing the contents of our unconscious to light. We can move forward with a project related to spirituality, creativity, compassion or foreign lands, something we had been working on before late June when the planet of mysteries went retrograde.
The turn is exact tomorrow, but we’re now on the portal. Pay special attention to dreams and signs from angels. Intuitive guidance is strong and we can use it to consolidate positive changes in love, self-esteem, values and finances—changes precipitated by Sunday’s Venus-Pluto square and facilitated by today’s trine from Venus to stable Saturn. Other factors of change include today’s numerology of 5, related to action, and a trine from Moon in Virgo, sign of work, to innovative Uranus in Taurus, sign of abundance.
Affirmation:
Guardian angel, please move me on the best path and shield me from distraction, here and now.
Wednesday, December 6
Neptune perfects its station to turn direct, making this morning an intuitive landmark. After she enters Libra, Moon favors people connections.
With Neptune’s station and Moon going VOC on a trine to deep Pluto, early morning is dreamy; great for an angel consultation, dream interpretation, emotional healing, and creative visualization.
At 8:35 am (11:35 ET), Moon enters affable Libra. Still in orb of yesterday’s trine to Saturn, Moon’s ruler Venus supports connections related to long term goals or lasting values. Today’s numerology of 6 supports socializing, but Saturn’s influence, reiterated in a quincunx from Moon, puts the focus more on long-standing relationships and those we want to last, or on purposeful connections for business and education.
Affirmation:
I give thanks for the angelic guidance that is surprisingly clear for me, now and always..
Thursday, December 7
Today’s influences favor creative writing, PR, and educational, promotional and spiritual activities.
Happy Hanukkah!
Mental Mercury rules today’s cognitively apt numerology of 7, and Mercury’s trine to expansive Jupiter is one of the best possible aspects for smooth communication, promoting something, teaching and learning. With both planets in retrograde, focus on things started previously.
Moon in socially adept Libra makes an early sextile to hyper Mars; we can apply our charm to promote or campaign for something, engage in competition, or cut a deal.
Mars can be rude, so even as we connect, we want to choose our words and company.
Affirmation:
Infinite good is present everywhere, and that’s all I encounter, now and always..
Friday, December 8
We can make people connections and get finished results from our efforts for justice, creativity, work or key relationships.
Today’s numerology of 8 supports tangible consolidation of our previous efforts. Moon in Libra likes harmony, but today’s numerology of 8 is intent on results. Ruled by Pluto, it supports consolidation of power.
Moon’s ruler Venus approaches an opposition with abundant Jupiter. These are the two most helpful planets in the solar system; their connection brings fortune in negotiation, legal affairs and through publicity and expands good feelings, creativity, financial opportunities, and love.
Connect, promote, reach out, share your vision, ask for what you need. Cover your bases before 5:05 pm (8:05 ET), when Moon goes VOC on a square to tough Pluto. Take time out to journal, read psychology, heal your emotions or watch a romantic film or series. Such activities, and intimate encounters, continue to be favored after 7:35 pm (10:35 ET), when Moon enters intense Scorpio.
Affirmation:
The river of God’s love flows through my life and appears through the best and highest channels, now and always..
Saturday, December 9
Strong love vibrations are great for following through on a business initiative or our plans to connect with someone.
It’s a social day, although Moon in Scorpio prefers closeup and deep to casual and friendly.
Today’s numerology of 9—related to endings—blends with Moon’s Plutonian rulership, with Mercury in shadow, and with the balsamic Moon phase to spotlight finishing rather than starting something. Love-planet Venus rules lucky Jupiter in Taurus, and today she perfects her opposition to the giant planet of abundance. Whenever these two meet, they open doors of opportunity, happiness, and prosperity. Jupiter is a facilitator, and when connecting with Venus brings a sense of boundless love and prosperity. Jupiter also triggers release. We can make our best effort in something related to finances, a cause or a connection… and then release the situation as we begin to think about new relational and financial intentions to set at the upcoming New Moon in Sagittarius, ruled by Jupiter. We can also make a donation and practice gratitude.
The entire day is good for people connections, and these special energies are worth devoting to the ones that matter.
Affirmation:
I have a divine appointment with the best people for my growth and progress, and I bless those that are in my life now.
Sunday, December 10
Our spirit of defiance can be directed in a breakthrough.
On the doorstep of Tuesday’s New Moon, today’s pioneering numerology of 1 facilitates a reset. With Moon in bold Scorpio opposing Uranus, the rebel planet, this is the time to stop waiting for circumstances and people to change. It’s time to follow our independent inklings to open a door ourselves. The change may be outer, like moving to a new place; it may be inner, like renewing one’s commitment and finding support to develop a new habit or overcome an addiction. It may be as simple as daring to burn our previous intentions and set a goal aligned with our heart’s desire—instead of following what others (or what a previous self) think is possible or can be done. With Mercury in shadow, this is a door we’ve approached previously. Now, we can step through.
Moon also trines Neptune, spotlighting angelic guidance, compassion and the power of visualization. We can forgive ourselves and others for the previous cycle and gather images and ideas to make a vision board for the New Moon in Sag.
Affirmation:
I release what’s beyond my immediate control, and focus on helpful thoughts and actions now.
Monday, December 11
We get a space for inner work and healing, and the rest of the day favors all kinds of communication: whether close up and personal, with a group or towards the public.
Morning is good for spiritual healing, research and decluttering.
People contacts go better after 11:17 am (2:17 pm), when a wonderful sextile from Mercury the messenger to charming Venus rescues us from the bleak spirit of Moon’s morning square to Saturn and brings opportunities for connections that fuel love, joy, romance and financial success.
Moon in Sagittarius supports these opportunities, keeping our spirits high, with a gregarious touch that can be used to expand our social horizons, to have fun, to promote something, to collaborate on a cause or to participate in a gathering (a class, a party, a shamanic circle, or a business meeting). Luna’s visionary instincts also favor trade, legal matters, diplomacy and attainment of long overdue answers.
Today’s numerology of 11 triggers a portal where angels can more easily access our love radiation to lift the planetary frequency.
Affirmation:
The peace and love I feel in my heart connect me with the peace and love in hearts around the world, and we surround the planet with victorious peace and love now.
Tuesday, December 12
New Moon in Sagittarius spotlights moving ahead with something independent that involves confidence, spirituality and/or communication.
The New Moon in Sag opens horizons. Mercury in shadow supports new beginnings in relation to things we had started previously. Her contacts with rebel Uranus and assertive Mars fuel the archer’s independent streak. A trine to North Node and Chiron in Aries, sign of identity, point to new directions in self-healing.
But before you hike of to the hills for a personal retreat, consider what’s going on with Moon’s ruler, Jupiter: the great benefic makes two splendid aspects for people connections—an opposition to Venus and a sextile to Mercury, precipitating opportunities in communications, love, faith and finances. We can reassert a direction that supports personal wellness, self-esteem, and authentic vision, and at the same time promote connections that are helpful for all involved. They be with those we pray for, spiritual guides and angels, or those we heal as we update our gifts.
The Sabian symbol for this lunation at 20-21 Sagittarius says:
The use of imagination and make-believe in anticipating higher stages of development… This is similar to the process of growth by identification with a ‘Master’ or guru. In a sense it is mere pretending or make-believe, yet wearing the ‘mask’ of a god the medicine man at the time becomes for all practical purposes the incarnation of the god. Growth is always a hierarchical process, even if the growing entity is not aware of it… LEARNING THROUGH IMITATION.
We can reassert our identification with Christ, Mary Magdalene, or our favorite angel, buddha, or other preferred light being.
We can also reconnect with foreign lands and projects, go back to school, renew our optimism, release self-righteousness, consult an oracle, resolve a dispute, revive a plan for travel.
Affirmation:
I am one with (name of angel or spirit guide), who permeates my body and lifts my vibration, here and now.
Wednesday, December 13
We have an early space to connect with our vision and spirit guides, followed by some great time for progress in practical endeavors.
Mercury stations to retrograde. Although the messenger planet has been in shadow for the last three weeks, at the station he digs in his feet, pulling us more palpably to look behind to our unfinished business and within to our own mental processes.
This combines with Moon in Sagittarius, still on the portal of yesterday’s mystical lunation and emerging from a wee-hour square to magical Neptune, making the first hours of the day appropriate for inner work: dream interpretation, journaling, prayer and meditation.
At 7:31 am (10:31 ET), Moon enters practical Capricorn, enriched by harmonies to Jupiter, planet of fortune and Saturn, the builder planet who rules both Moon and today’s constructive numerology of 4.
Behind this energy of building we have the drive of yesterday’s New Moon, making today great for tangible progress toward goals, particularly those ruled by Capricorn. We can:
- Focus on high finance
- Meet with the boss or work team
- Ask for a promotion
- Renew efforts to expand our business
- Organize our calendar or an area of life that’s become scattered or disrupted
- Work on career or another long-term goal
- Make a team effort
- Retouch reconstructive surgery
- Reorganize home life or a building project
- Apply for credit
- Hone down on year-end financial goals
Affirmation:
My progress comes from Spirit and it can’t be limited. I give thanks for the divine progress in my healing, spirit and finances, here and now.
Thursday, December 14
A great day for work, for people connections, and for reaching new heights emotionally and materially.
Still on the dynamic New Moon portal, today’s adventuresome numerology of 5 moves us to new horizons in areas related to Capricorn, today’s Moon-sign. These include goals, work, reorganization, and practical action. Does this sound potentially stressful? The day starts with a sextile from Moon to sweet Venus, bringing charm to our contacts and communications this morning. We can make great connections of all kinds: for work, romance, family, and with women. If we want to strengthen bonds with a dear one or love object, this influence is particularly useful.
With a trine from Moon to innovative Uranus in Taurus, sign of abundance, afternoon and evening are particularly apt for actions related to work and business.
Affirmation:
I move in the field of infinite good that supports me in this and all situations now.
Friday, December 15
Today’s numerology of 6 combines with Moon in Capricorn to make early morning great for business, and after Luna shifts to Aquarius, for people connections.
Early this morning, Moon in practical Capricorn blends with today’s fortunate numerology of 6 to favor business contacts and initiatives for progress, until going VOC at 8:14 am (11:14 ET). We can then take a little downtime and enjoy a fire or the winter scape.
At 9:56 am (12:56 ET), Luna enters Aquarius, bringing joy to our people connections. Organize a surprise party or holiday fest, lunch with friends, make social connections.
This evening, Moon squares expansive Jupiter, good for teaching, study, research, promotion and outreach.
Affirmation:
The angels already know who my best contacts are, and they work to guide them to me, here and now.
Saturday, December 16
Today’s mentally active numerology of 7 combines with Moon in brilliant Aquarius to sharpen our cognitive aptitudes. The aspects stimulate romance, creativity and activism.
Sun squares Neptune while the mystical planet is just out of station, accenting creativity, romance and creative imagination. If we haven’t made a vision board for the New Moon, today is a good time.
Today’s numerology of 7 is ruled by Uranus, the genius planet, and so is Moon in Aquarius, a great combination for creative and intellectual work, study, and research. Her connections with Mars and Venus spark excitement, romance, and acts of heroic altruism.
Connect with others is best before 6:53 pm (9:53 ET), when Moon makes one of her least diplomatic aspects: a square to her independent ruler. After the square, we can work on something creative or do armchair activism. As for personal interactions, it’s best to keep a low profile and avoid unnecessary disputes.
Affirmation:
I radiate love, and this vibration prevails in all interactions now.
Sunday, December 17
Morning favors resting, with later windows for sweet connections.
Moon in Aquarius goes VOC at 4:04 am (7:04 ET), making morning good for taking a time out and researching, reading or helping others for pleasure.
At 11:58 am (2:58 pm ET), Moon enters spiritual Pisces, connecting with the sweet flow of tomorrow’s trine from Venus, planet of love, to expansive, fortunate Jupiter. The combination favors heart-centered prayer or meditation and people connections in general. In particular, we can enjoy a date, volunteering at a pet or people shelter, an easy-going social or spiritual gathering, a picnic on the beach, a concert, or going on a romantic escapade.
At 3:32 pm (6:32 ET), Moon joins cold Saturn; paradise frosts over. Take a break and write down your goals and dreams. If you want to get a little work done, today’s numerology of 8 can help consolidate results.
At 9:49 pm (12:49 am ET), we re-enter the flow as Moon sextiles Jupiter, a great aspect for study, teaching, promotion, publicity, and campaigning. Or we can resume the joyful connections described for earlier in the day. This lovely harmony is followed by a sextile to Mercury the messenger that supports late communications, like pillow talk, sending emails, editing copy and messaging.
Affirmation:
Thank you, angels, for connecting me telepathically with my divine network, now and always..
Monday, December 18
Moon in gentle Pisces combines with the most fortunate aspect of the month to make for great people connections.
Th most fortunate aspect of the month is a trine from Venus, goddess of relationships, values and love, to Jupiter, god of fortune who expands whatever he touches. This harmony fuels charisma and makes us feel confident, attractive, and sociable. Connections flow and we can open and receive affection, grace, and prosperity.
Moon in Pisces gives this a romantic touch and awakens our spiritual nature. To multiply the love and supply that flow in our lives, we can connect with Source and give thanks.
This gentle Moon trines Venus, bringing our emotions into our circle of warmth. We can connect with the public with special magnetism.
Use the magic before 5:58 pm (8:58 ET), when sensitive Moon squares cutting Mars, and interchanges and attitudes can become challenging. We can take a hot bath, scrub the stove, or watch an action film. With Moon in mystical Pisces, we can also do gentler actions like mindful walking and consult our dreams, guides and angels to guide our actions.
At 9:14 pm (12:14 am ET), a sextile from Moon to Uranus fuels our independent spirit and can open a door in friendship, activism, or finance.
Affirmation:
All doors open on infinite good, and good is all that lies ahead of me now.
Tuesday, December 19
Today’s enthusiastic numerology of 1 reconnects us with our goals, with a more mystical orientation this morning and a more active focus later in the day. Still in orb of the Venus-Jupiter trine, people connections and publicity go well.
This morning, Moon in ethereal Pisces joins ruler Neptune, spotlighting creativity, intuition, visualization and connections with light beings.
Our imagination is ready for Moon’s Second Quarter, exact at 10:39 am (1:39 pm). It triggers a moment to pause and reflect on the progress we’ve made towards the intentions and goals we clarified at last week’s New Moon. The Sabian symbol for 27-28 Pisces describes:
A FERTILE GARDEN UNDER THE FULL MOON REVEALS A VARIETY OF FULL-GROWN VEGETABLES… The full satisfaction of the individual’s basic needs.
What is stressed now is… the moon’s power to call forth the instinctive urge for growth… The symbol refers to a typical garden, not to a field. Such a garden contains a variety of plants, herbs and vegetables grown specifically to fill an equal variety of human needs and tastes… It is a symbol of ABUNDANCE, an abundance fitted to individualized requirements and wants.
At 1:03 pm (4:03 ET), Moon goes VOC. If appropriate, we can take a nap, listen to music, pray, meditate and visualize. After this, save key actions and connections for Moon to enter Aries, which starts at 2:47 pm (5:47 ET).
Venus, goddess of love, values and finance, is still in orb of yesterday’s trine to expansive Jupiter, taking the edge off Moon in Aries’ impatience. We can channel our courage by reaching out to others, campaigning for someone or something and working on sales, promotion or other bold initiatives involving people.
With an electrical Solstice portal approaching, it’s still good to watch our toes a bit and avoid letting ourselves get pushy, boisterous or rude.
Affirmation:
Guardian Angel, direct me to shine my light in dexterous, harmonious ways, now and always..
Wednesday, December 20
We get a rich mix of relational and independent energies.
Today’s numerology of 2 likes connection, while Moon in Aries infuses the Solstice portal (exact tomorrow) with an extra dose of dynamic energy, and moves us to independent action. Meanwhile, today’s numerology of 2 mingles with and adapts to others.
Moon in Aries wants to get things done and can help us push past perfectionism to act boldly. Venus approaches an opposition to Uranus, sparking our sense of adventure and independence in relationship and finance.
Take independent action, try new options and yes, connect with others but choose those who are resonate with your free, daring spirit.
Affirmation:
I allow myself to choose those contacts who support my divine direction, here and now.
Thursday, December 21
Today’s mystical portal of Solstice marks the beginning of Winter and the astrological New Year. Restless aspects support creativity, trying something new and goal-directed communications.
Moon in active Aries wants to do things, and with ruler Mars in quincunx to Uranus, planet of freedom, this includes things that are outside the box. Venus in opposition to Uranus brings new perspectives in relationships and finance. If on vacation, we can do something unusual that requires energy—rising before dawn to greet the rising Solstice Sun, going to a science museum, taking in a basketball game, surprising a friend or loved one by showing up to take them out, getting going before the traffic starts and visiting a new place. If no one wants to come, we could have an off-beat adventure of our own.
A sextile from Mercury the messenger to Saturn the builder combines with today’s more restless influences, making this a good day to push past perfectionism and consolidate communications or bureaucracy related to work or business. This energy also supports connections with an elder, boss, or teacher (through a holiday call or visit?), as well as decluttering papers, lists, email, etc. It’s great for organizing our prayer, journaling and manifestation practice for the New Year.
The Solstice Sun triggers the Aries point, unleashing an electrical wave that lifts our actions and intentions to a new level of power.
The energies are best before 5:11 pm (8:11 ET)—when Moon squares intense Pluto—or after 6:50 pm (9:50 ET), when after a 3-minute VOC, she enters prosperous Taurus. A bit later she trines Mercury and sextiles Saturn, again favoring constructive communications, reorganizing and decluttering.
Solstice is exact at 7:27 pm (10:27 ET), when Sun enters Capricorn.
Affirmation:
Angels of Solstice, please put us in tune with the best and highest experiences in the New Year now.
Friday, December 22
Today, Master Number 22 reiterates the electrical energy of the Solstice portal, while the aspects support prosperity and constructive communication.
Moon in Taurus brings joy to the holidays, increasing our pleasure in beautiful surroundings: in town, at home or in nature, as we share a meal, exchange gifts and in general soak in the good life.
Moon joins affluent Jupiter, favoring a party, while Sun joins Mercury the messenger, facilitating self-expression—and, in Capricorn, sign of mastery, giving us the willpower to direct today’s good vibrations in constructive connections or by editing our writing and messages. This aspect, taking place on the critical Aries degree, has added power and, combined with today’s numerology of 22, intensifies the power of our words in manifestation, publishing, promotion, service or outreach to the masses.
Taurus and Jupiter can both be laid back, but today’s promise is worth the effort to move out of our comfort zone.
At 10:18 pm (1:18 am ET), Mercury the messenger enters jovial Sag.
Affirmation:
Archangel Michael, please dissolve my resistance to change and mobilize me on my path of power now.
Saturday, December 23
We get some hours for independent action and others for romance, creativity and happy connection.
Today’s adventuresome numerology of 5 complements Moon’s aspects to active Mars and independent Uranus, moving us to take some time for ourselves. We might go out, connect with nature, get in a bit of exercise or declutter our space. With Moon and Uranus in Taurus, sign of abundance, we can also review our investments or make a change in a business situation.
Moon is exalted in Taurus and at 11:04 am (2:04 pm ET), opposes ruler, sweet Venus, accenting our sense of beauty and triggering vibrations of love and prosperity. Soon thereafter, Moon sextiles sensitive Neptune. We can enjoy music or a romantic encounter, do last minute Christmas shopping and holiday decorating, exchange gifts, creative endeavors, do something altruistic, or make spiritual connections.
Affirmation:
The angels of Solstice bring warmth to our hearts and joy to our souls, here and now.
Sunday, December 24
Moon in loquacious Gemini combines with today’s jovial numerology of 6 to favor afternoon and evening gatherings.
This morning, a square from Moon to cold Saturn can fuel guilt trips and is best for reading non-fiction, writing affirmations, or organizing the refrigerator or kitchen.
At 12:28 pm (3:28 ET), connections become easier as Sun in Capricorn sextiles ruler Saturn. Whether for creativity, work, activism or family, our actions can be constructive. With affectionate Venus closing in to trine to compassionate Neptune, we can build heart connections with family, angels and significant other.
Affirmation:
From my heart chakra at the center of my chest, I radiate the love that all creation longs for, here and now.
Monday, December 25
On the portal of tomorrow’s Full Moon in Cancer, a trine from Venus to Neptune fills us with vibrations of cosmic kindness, accenting sweet and spiritual love.
Today’s intelligent numerology of 7 strengthens intuition, touching the higher frequencies of this lovely trine. This is an emotional portal; one worth devoting to fuel the feelings that we wish to expand: forgiveness, self-esteem, romance, devotion, compassion, union.
Sensitivity is high and we want to focus on what we giving out and what we receive. We might volunteer at the local soup kitchen, meditate, use heart-centered affirmations, or share a special meal or encounter with easy, dear company.
At 11:55 pm (2:55 am ET), Moon goes VOC.
Affirmation:
I release my love-power and the Universe responds through infinite channels, now and always..
Tuesday, December 26
This morning, the Full Moon portal can make us high-strung. This afternoon it supports consolidated results.
Moon enters sensitive Cancer at 7:15 am (10:15 ET), and makes a series of tensions we may choose to sleep through. Other options are: meditation, hugging trees, sitting on the grass, taking a warm bath, working on positive manifestation.
At 12:30 pm (3:30 ET), we get on the good side of the Full Moon as she trines constructive Saturn in sublime Pisces. Her fullness perfects at 4:33 pm (7:33 ET), followed by her sextile to expansive Jupiter. Saturn the builder and Jupiter the promoter are considered the two planets of success, and these harmonies combine with today’s powerful numerology of 8 to support consolidation of previous efforts. Favored areas include:
- Family
- Business
- Publicity and promotions
- Real estate
- Mothers
- Emotions
- Intuition
- Positive imagination
- Romance
- Art
- Spiritual work or business
- Connections with our angels or spirit guides
- A humanitarian project
At 4-5 Cancer, the Sabian symbol says:
A RAILROAD CROSSING, AN AUTOMOBILE IS WRECKED BY A TRAIN… The tragic results which are likely to occur when the individual’s will pits itself carelessly against the power of the collective will of society… individual and relatively anarchistic or law-defying attempts are bound to fail. The driver may live, but his car will be wrecked… Lest we consider this phase totally negative, we should realize that most of the time man learns his lessons through relatively destructive experiences —the via negativa of the mystic, or even the strange occult concept expounded in some sects of “salvation through sin.” One may speak here more generally of KARMIC READJUSTMENT.
At 11:43 pm (2:43 ET), Mercury squares Neptune. Before sleeping, pray, connect with angels or program your dreams.
Affirmation:
Angels and spirit guides, please guide and direct me through clear, positive dreams I remember on waking, here and now.
Wednesday, December 27
Today’s numerology of 9 favors healing, forgiveness and inner work, while the transits support assertive communication.
In the afterglow of last night’s square from Mercury the messenger to mystical Neptune, the imagination remains active, and our vision is opened by today’s trine from Sun to expansive Jupiter, bringing confidence, vision, and a special radiance to promotional activities. Mercury joins Mars, the other promoter planet. We can campaign for or promote a service, a product, a brand or a meaningful message. We could also play word games, fight for a cause, write to our political representatives or circulate a petition. In sextile to Uranus tonight, Moon would be a happy adherent.
Mars the warrior is in square with mysterious Neptune. This audacious aspect favors promoting art and spirituality. But take special care when mixing machines or sports with water (skiing, ice skating, playing hockey, driving on slippery roads, or using a motor boat or an electrical device in the tub), and in situations involving men with alcohol and dark alleys or mysteries (going on a blind date, gambling, parking in a dark alley, letting the delivery man into your home).
Affirmation:
We are not alone or without protection, celestial guardians watch over and shield us, here and now and always..
Thursday, December 28
Still on the Full Moon portal, today’s bold numerology of 1 combines with creative, sexy transits to favor action on a humanitarian, creative, or spiritual project, and also a few hours for lovely connections.
Moon in Cancer favors connecting with our emotions, listening to one’s intuition, caring for the home and yard, connecting with family, creative visualization, artistic, and business initiatives in general and in particular, real estate.
From 6:45 am (9:45 ET), Luna’s harmonies to charming Venus and romantic Neptune make for lovely connections with dear ones, angels, and the public. Also, Venus—planet of love and money—sextiles deep Pluto, so our connections—and for that matter, our business activities—can open empowering doors.
However, with Mars perfecting a square to Neptune, we want to pay attention and take care in the ways described for yesterday’s influences: “This audacious aspect favors promoting art and spirituality, but merits special care when using machines or sports and water (skiing, ice skating, playing hockey, driving on slippery roads, using a motor boat or an electrical device in the tub) or in situations involving men with alcohol, dark allies or mysteries (going on a blind date, parking in a dark alley, gambling, letting a delivery man into your home).”
After 2:57 pm (5:57 ET), Moon goes VOC on an opposition to intense Pluto, complicating the risk-fun ratio. Best to keep a low profile and do independent spiritual or creative activities.
The creative spirit continues as at 4:23 pm (7:23 ET), Moon enters expressive Leo. This placement accents the lustful inclinations of the Mars-Neptune and Venus-Pluto aspects. Romance and intimacy can be powerful. Again, avoid anything too risky or risqué and if passion knocks, take it like a Virgo.
Affirmation:
No event can hurt us, omnipotent love radiates through all, and all events are beneficial for us, now and always..
Friday, December 29
Last night’s romantic potential continues and the warmth expands its focus to include altruistic gestures and connecting with the public.
Leo Moon is good at charming others, and Venus in sextile to Pluto is a great aspect that triggers opportunities for powerful connections. The potential has diverse possibilities. For instance, we could get through to someone powerful or in a position to change our situation, enjoy an emotionally and/or physically intimate encounter, have a session of therapy that empowers partnership, marriage or self-esteem, or move on what proves to be great financial opportunity. To use the free ticket gifted by today’s transits, pay attention and be ready to knock on a door or otherwise act boldly.
Before taking action, it’s good to listen to our intuition and avoid “iffy” scenarios like those described for the last two days as the potential risks of Mars square Neptune.
With Moon in aspect to expansive Jupiter, morning is particularly useful for people connections, teaching, publicity, inspiration and supporting a cause.
At 12:34 pm (3:34 ET), relational Venus enters Sagittarius; our love style becomes less intense and more outgoing and relaxed. It’s easier to express our feelings and ask for what we want.
Affirmation:
I express my preferences and wants, and release others to respond as they choose, here and now.
Saturday, December 30
Jupiter, planet of fortune, perfects his station to turn direct. We can share our inner knowledge. Things seem to flow more easily. There are a few great hours for connection with others.
Today’s numerology of 3 relates to Venus and beauty. It combines with Moon in Leo in square to innovative Uranus to make morning great for independent, creative activities and building towards an ideal.
The square is in fixed (stubborn) signs, so people connections go better after 1:00 pm (4:00 pm ET), when Moon makes a trines to Mercury the messenger.
We can enjoy an art exhibit or the theater, go on a date; work to beautify our messages, publicity or writing; use words to express love, relaunch a campaign we started before September 2, collaborate on a cause, do business, get the word out.
Fun and connections flow more easily before 9:15 pm (12:15 am ET), when Moon goes VOC on a trine to pushy Mars.
Affirmation:
Divinity progresses through me and as me, and I collaborate with divine progress now.
Sunday, December 31
Pay attention to today’s well-defined spaces. Some favor independent, constructive and nerdy activities, and others, happy connections.
Today’s numerology of 4 relates to Saturn, favoring decluttering, thinking about our goals and preparing for New Years rituals and activities.
Early this morning, Moon in diligent Virgo connects with Pluto, and we can easily start the day with spiritual or emotional healing. Connections flow and sweetness prevails at 8:23 am (11:23 ET), when Moon squares Venus, planet of love.
At 10:24 am (1:24 pm ET), Moon opposes taskmaster Saturn, breaking up the party. This cold aspect can be heavy, particularly in family connections. Take time to declutter, clean your space, get your journals in order and plan or review a New Years ritual and strategies to meet your goals for the 12 months ahead.
At 3:10 pm (6:10 ET), we’re home free for a night of partying or prayer, depending on how we apply an aspect that makes for a great New Years Eve: a trine from Moon to jovial Jupiter. It supports happy connections, with people, with humanity, and with angels.
Affirmation:
Any plan that doesn’t resonate with the divine plan for our complete good is now dissolved, as the divine plan for the New Year unfolds and prevails in all situations, here and now. Thank you, Mother-Father.
