Winter is here….

For those of us in Northern Hemisphere we are now two days into Winter after the Sun moved into Capricorn on Saturday.     Did you feel a cool breeze waft in?   Yeah, there is a big difference between hot & bothered Sag and cool-as-a-cucumber Capricorn.   We are now getting our practical on and have less time for nonsense but we do relish dark humor.  Just perfect for Christmas! 

Also on Saturday, Venus turned retrograde in Capricorn beginning its five week backward journey.   Venus retrograde is when we look at how our love, money and values might be ‘off’.   Perhaps we have been loving someone who does not deserve it?  Perhaps we have been pursuing a passion but when we come out of the Venus retrograde on January 31 we may have a new take on where our love and passion now needs to be focused.  Perhaps we have been spending money on something or someone that is no longer serving us.      Yeah, we’re getting our cold on.   It is hard pressure time.     

The week will start off with a Disseminating lunar phase.     Followed by Last quarter moon on December 25^th .   Also on the 25^th Mars will be in opposition with Uranus.    Not a pleasant aspect.  Where one person is rough another person is chaotic.   On the micro,  there will be some a-hole comments.  God help those families who hit the booze on holidays. Watch out for drunk drivers and warmongers.   How do you spell YIKES?

Focus on: How are you sharing your strength?  How are sharing your courage?  How are others sharing their leadership?  How are others sharing their own strength?    What are you learning from others when they lie?   

Special focus:

12/24: Mercury enter Capricorn

12/25: Mars/Uranus Abrupt actions, chaotic movements, reckless energy, breaking stuff up

Last Quarter Moon Phase

December 25

2:27pm EST

Last Quarter moon:  Now we do the final adjustments to the seeds we planted on new. The final call, the final letters to send, we follow all the trails that came up that still make sense.  And we let the other parts lay fallow. It is a time of action but wise action.  It is a time for living  “The serenity prayer”

God, grant me the Serenity
to accept the things
I cannot change Courage to change the
things I can, and the
Wisdom to know the difference.

Focus on:

What actions do you need to take that help reach your goals and visions and include your relationships?  How are your partners supporting your goals and visions?  What do you need to do to engage them?  

Special focus:

12/26: Mercury/Neptune: Gentle conversations, inspired thinking, spiritual thoughts

12/27: Mercury/Saturn: Harsh thinking, what’s broken is on the mind

12/28: Sun/Mercury: Goal oriented thinking, energetic thinking, putting oneself out there in the world starts without thinking about it first.
