Weekly Forecast ~ Week of December 10th

I don’t want to jinx things by saying there is smooth sailing ahead but since last week’s new moon we have had some mild and supportive energy that makes this week a breeze!  Or at least much more of a breeze than things have been lately!

Monday December 10th ~
Moon in Capricorn Void-Of-Course at 3:27 PM CST
Moon Enters Aquarius at 5:39 PM CST

It’s a good day for productivity.  Most of the day we have the moon in Capricorn which likes to focus on real world tasks.  Accomplishment feels good, especially if you plan to rule the world someday! I know I say that as a joke but the truth is we can all be the master of our own universe.  Get to it, then!

Moon in Aquarius

The moon in Aquarius enjoys logic problems, thinking games, but never enjoys mind games.  Playing mind games with people leads to mistrust and dishonor. Aquarius wants to be an idealist but they sometimes have trouble in interpersonal relations because they can be a little too logical.  If you are overthinking a relationship issue today let it go and instead ask yourself how you can help your fellow man or woman in this situation. That will help resolve the issue.

Moon in Aquarius void-of-course at 3:53 PM CST
Mercury enters Sagittarius (again)

Mercury was just in Sagittarius a week or two ago before he dipped back into Scorpio to finish off his retrograde period.  We should all be walking over familiar ground right now. We already covered this previously. But this third time around is the final chance to get your mind (Mercury) aligned with your personal philosophy (Sagittarius) so that you can truly walk the talk and not just talk the talk.  As Carl Jung said: “You are what you do. Not what you say you’ll do.”

Thursday December 13th ~
Moon in Aquarius void-of-course at 4:20 AM CST
Moon enters Pisces at 6:40 AM CST

Most of the day the moon is in Pisces which encourages us to go with the flow.  Since the moon makes an early square to Mercury we might have to deal with a conflict between our head (Mercury) and our heart (moon) but if we stay with it we are assured that this too shall pass.  

Friday December 14th ~
Moon in Pisces

The Pisces moon can get lost in imagination today, especially as she wanders into Neptune and closes her eyes to dance in the mist.  Since most of us have things in the real world to accomplish we might have to fight against this but if can you try taking up the fine art of doodling today and see what shows up on the paper.  You might just surprise yourself.


Saturday December 15th ~
Moon in Pisces void-of-course at 5:49 AM CST
Moon enters Aries at 6:44 PM CST

Most of the day we wander like the void-of-course moon in Pisces.  I was reading a book recently where the author talked about the spiritual practice of getting lost.  The French even have a word for it, when you go for a leisurely stroll with no destination in mind you are called a “flâneur.”  The energy today supports this quest to go nowhere intentionally.  Try it out. See how it feels. Do the angels and faeries show up to help you along the way?


Sunday December 16th ~
Moon in Aries
Venus sextile Saturn

Venus and Saturn get along quite well.  Venus like stability in her relationships and Saturn provides a solid foundation for trust and well being.  Venus is in Scorpio right now and might be feeling like she has to try too hard to feel loved but then along comes Saturn and he takes her by the hand and assures her that he loves her just as she is.  This is a good day for furthering commitments and for laying foundation stones. If there is a part of your own life that needs a better foundation you can take today’s energy, commit to what needs improvement, and take the first step.
