December 4 – 10

Silent Retreat

What to expect: Focused concentration
What to watch out for: Thinking we need to be busy
What will it affect? Communication, ideas, thoughts, focused energy

Mercury went retrograde on Dec 3rd at 29 degrees of Sagittarius. It’s headed back through the sign for most of the month. We’ll get a reprieve just before Christmas on Dec 22rd when Mercury will go direct again. But for the next three weeks are so it will be asking us to review our beliefs systems, our ideals, and all of the learning material – books, magazines, schools of thought. The first thing that Mercury will do, on Dec 6th is conjunct Saturn. This might feel familiar. Well, it is. This same thing happened just last week. It’s going back over the galactic centre and connecting with the cosmic intelligence. As it connects with Saturn and goes over this point again, we have the chance to go back over the messages received and lessons learned. What really was the lesson. Focusing in and meditating on what came up in the last couple of week can help us to peel the layers of meaning and to get to the truth. Or at least our truth. Mars is also sextile Saturn giving us the ability to focus for long periods of time. This is a great time to go back over projects, look for errors and fine tune, but if you find yourself in long meditative states or several days of a self-imposed silent retreat, this is also good. We may feel superhuman as the amount of work we can get done will seem machine-like, even if it’s inner work!

Pallas is also squaring Juno causing a conflict within our relationships. The answer this time might be some alone time.

Why? Pallas Square Juno, Mercury Conjunction Saturn, Mercury Sextile Mars, Mars Sextile Saturn

What’s Old is New!

What to expect: Repurposing ideas
What to watch out for: Brilliant ideas
What will it affect? Creativity, spirituality, purpose, nurturing, direction

On Dec 8th, Vesta the asteroid related to purpose and passion will join with Jupiter to trine Neptune. Artistic creations and spiritual ideologies are now ignited with the sacred flame of the hearth. This adds dedication and love to the recipe and a flavour of “je ne sais quoi”

By the 9th Mercury continuing its backward move through Sagittarius will trine Pallas. Are you the type to have brainstorming sticky notes all over the place? Or a notebook full of ideas? Looking over them will bring you new insight. Something you thought was useless may all of a sudden spark unexpected connections. Ceres the nurturing asteroid of conjunct the North Node in Leo on December 10th, so as we nurture our creativity, we move into our individuality and purpose. Mercury’s next move is to trine Uranus on the same day. Sparks and connections made over the last couple of day will now ignite new electrical and neural pathways, creating a clear path for change!

Why? Neptune Trine Vesta, Mercury Trine Pallas, Sun Trine Ceres, Sun Trine North Node, Ceres Conjunction North Node, Mercury Trine Uranus

Avoiding and Being Avoided

What to expect: Evasions
What to watch out for: Opportunities in going over old ground
What will it affect? Money, relationships, communication, old wounds

December 10th is a red flag day for business. Venus will square Neptune causing vagueness were money is concerned. We may be thinking about all our upcoming Christmas bills and decide to go on a collection drive. It’s not likely to be successful. You know they read your message because their beautiful little face has popped up at on the friendly facebook message you sent reminding them about the dollars, but silence will be your reply.

Mercury will also square Chiron and we’ll feel hurt and maybe indecisive about how we should handle our hurt. Should we say what we are feeling? Communication breakdown is likely. But with Mercury retrograde, if this is an old argument, you know the ones that you keep having over and over with the same person, this is now a good time to hash it out again. Mercury regrade wants us to go over old ground to check in with what we may have missed or misunderstood. Healing is likely if we use the energy in this way. That being said. If this is a new issue and you plan to broach the subject for the first time, expect it to be a bit frustrating.

Nov 27 – Dec 3

Breaking Convention

What to expect: Concrete Adjustments
What to watch out for: Backlash
What will it affect? Communication, relationships, belief systems and ideologies

The beginning of the week starts with a Saturn Mercury conjunction. They are both in Sagittarius and on the Galactic Centre. Not only that, they are also both trine Pallas, the Goddess Asteroid of feminine strategy. Divine inspiration helps us to make adjustments to our structures. Challenged belief systems and concentrated thought combined to help us create a tactical plan far different than anything we have ever experienced. We also have the confidence and vision to bring those ideas into being.

Not everyone will be jumping with joy at what we communicate and express at this time. Mars will square Juno. Our relationships could get thrown off balance and as a result, competition may emerge. At the heart of it is a need for equilibrium. There is a need for the conventional in relationships to include freedom. But there still exists a discomfort and even an irrational loyalty to traditional relationship structure. Tradition for tradition sake does not serve us anymore. Allow freedom of thought and divine guidance at this time, as it can help us to envision and adjust to a more workable structure.

Why? Mercury Trine Pallas, Mars Square Juno, Mercury Conjunction Saturn

Inspired Guidance

What to expect: Need to break free
What to watch out for: Self-sabotage
What will it affect? Feminine emergence, relationship wounds, spirituality, art

Between Dec 1st – 2nd disruptions are likely. Mars opposes Uranus and Pallas and impulsive actions are on the rise. We may demonstrate it or we may experience it from others. This strong rebellious energy emanates and with Pallas there and involves rebellion against the “weak” aspects of being a woman. As the mythology goes, Pallas was not born of her mother’s womb. Instead, she sprang out of her father’s head. She saw herself equal to men and when she experienced inequality, she didn’t hesitate to sell out her feminine side in order to keep her power.

Happening at the same time is Chiron sextile Juno and making a tense aspect to Mars. Chiron is there to help relationships with old wounds, but Mars gets a little defensive and confrontational. The issue is equality and freedom. How can we bring this about without abandoning our perceived weaknesses? The answer may lie with Jupiter and Neptune!

Jupiter will trine Neptune. This is the first magical exact trine between Jupiter and Neptune. Two more will happen over the next ten months. Spiritual teachers may emerge, showing us the way. Esoteric secrets may be revealed that help us let go of grievances and aid a compassionate approach. Throwing ourselves into art as a spiritual expression can serve to provide insights and answers. This is a mystical time which as a by-product can produce great works of art and inspiration. Don’t strive for it though. Allow it to come through you without agenda. Instead listen to its guidance and allow it to inspire you in whatever way it moves to manifest in your life!

Why? Mars Opposition Uranus, Chiron Sextile Juno, Jupiter Trine Neptune, Mars Opposition Pallas

Full Moon in Gemini

What to expect: Elusive truths
What to watch out for: Making any decisions
What will it affect? Culminations, truths, relationships

Ignorance is bliss! You can’t handle the truth! Denial isn’t just a river in Egypt! I could come up with more… but I think you get the point. Ice fog will settle on the December 3rd Full Moon. Here’s the recipe that leads to all the smoke and mirrors… The Full Moon happens at 11 degrees of Gemini and will square Neptune (planet of fog and confusion – especially when forming a tense aspect). The Moon also forms a tense aspect to Jupiter, causing a stretch of the truth. What exactly is the truth? The truth will, for now, be out of reach as the planetary ruler of the Full Moon, Mercury also goes retrograde on Dec 3rd. Nothing makes sense. And even if it does make sense, it’s sure to be missing critical information that will poke a hole in that theory. It’s an information gathering time. Warning; the information will seem weird! And with Uranus squaring Juno, there is a chance that we can make some rash decisions in our relationships – sans any reliable information! The best thing to do is to STAY AWAY FROM DECISIONS.

The moon is making a wide trine to the north node, so even if things hinge on the unbelievable (or believable depending if we’ve sunken into a feather bed of denial) they are likely pointing us in the right direction. The path to OZ is riddled with test and disappointment, but that doesn’t mean it’s not the right path. The best way to handle this Full Moon is to keep moving forward and to keep the faith while doing it!

Why? Full Moon at 11°Gemini, Sun Square Neptune, Uranus Square Juno

Timing!

What to expect: Investments
What to watch out for: Waiting too long
What will it affect? Money, investments, relationships, choice

On November 21st Venus in Scorpio is sextile Pluto in ambitious Capricorn. We can expect a transformative time with respect to currency and investments. Our values are also being transformed, so as you look at your investment options you may begin to consider the Bitcoin or other crypto currency over the traditional currency, disruptive technology over tried and true, alchemy (science which takes into account spirit) over science. This is a good time for investment and venture capitalism. Mars will also sextile the North Node, pointing us in the right direction and moving us towards our intended purpose. Projects will get off the ground and have the potential to have the right backing. If you need to approach someone for financial support or capital, now is the time to do it. It’s a slim window to act and our timing is everything because the very next day Neptune will go direct on November 22nd. It’s one day to avoid major actions. Things may be a little hazy. Not only that, Venus squares the nodes making paths diverge. Right or wrong we make choices about the direction of our riches.

Why? Venus Sextile Pluto, Mars Sextile North Node, Neptune Direct, Venus Square Nodes

Ah-ha Moments and Breakthroughs

What to expect: Advancement
What to watch out for: Forgetting to capture insights
What will it affect? Communication, relationships, ideas

On November 24th painful conversation will emerge. This is because Chiron, the wounded healer is involved. These conversations may be about our deepest held beliefs. We may have difficulty with what comes to light and realize that somewhere deep inside of us we have a deeply held opinion about it. Forgiving and forgetting might be challenging. Don’t let your beliefs blind you. The way to do this is to face the emotion. Moving through the emotions and coming to the other side helps us to be able to take advantage of the other energy now at play. Venus is sextile Juno helping us to sort out and renegotiate our partnerships. We are bringing in a very feminine energy that is seeking mutuality and respect. We need to imagine a new path and Mercury and Uranus will help us do just that. Mercury is trine Uranus on November 25th giving us aha moments and breakthroughs. Keep a notepad handy because we’ll likely have flashes of genius – You’ll want to capture them so that you can capitalize on them later on.

Social Impact

What to expect: Transforming wounds
What to watch out for: Acting from unhealed places
What will it affect? Relationships, social change, feminine wounds, feminine justice.

By November 26th Venus will trine Chiron providing an opportunity for healing within our relationships and partnerships. Venus is still in Scorpio, so she takes us deep into our jealousies and insecurities. With her trine to Chiron, you’ll realize it’s not just you; collective wounds rise to the surface. Wounds to the feminine and issues related to power and abuse of power come up for healing. Thi

s all happens as a good thing and Saturn trine Pallas on the same day allows us to take our wounds and get political. If we come from a place of strength and leadership and we are now able to effect social movements and change. Make no mistake, businesses are the modern day effectors of social change, so if you can find room your business to lead with that kind of impact, do so.

Speaking of wounds that lead to strength and leadership, this doesn’t just happen. Acting from unhealed places within ourselves can at its worst be outwardly destructive and at is best, self – sabotaging. Often we need to work at it. And further, once we understand our wounds we need to go an extra step to learn how to translate them into strength and leadership. With Jupiter is Scorpion for the next year, it would behoove you to take advantage of its transformative power and ensure that your leadership actions are coming from a place of strength. We’ve designed a course to help you with just that. It’s coming up in January!
