Busy fortnight in store for one and all. The moon’s
node has just entered Aquarius; Saturn goes retrograde until
May; Mercury into Capricorn on the 21st followed by the Sun
on the 22nd. Venus, the lady of love, moves into that amorous
sign of Sagittarius and Mars on it’s retrograde path
backtracks into Gemini, getting ready for it’s second
opposition to Pluto at the beginning of January. The Full
Moon is in Cancer on Christmas Eve, which will, no doubt,
make for a very family oriented festive celebration. The Sun
will connect with Pluto on the 21st, following in the recent
footsteps of Jupiter and Mercury, as well as the moon, just
after it’s entry into the new moon phase, which began
the cycle on the 10th. Remember that we are now gearing for
that momentous entry of Pluto into Capricorn at the end of
January. With all that activity on the Galactic Center through
December, we are well accustomed to the intensity of living
in the 21st century, with it’s challenges and vast opportunities,
many of which were highlighted to us, throughout the month.
Many are now well on their path to fulfilling their soul purpose.
The real work begins, at the end of January. The beginning
of March is the third, in the trilogy of Mars/Pluto oppositions;
although this one will be in the Cancer/Capricorn polarity,
making much ado about family, housing, government, banking
and all things pertaining to the acquisition of material objects
and away from the idea oriented and far reaching visions of
Gemini/Sagittarius. Time for basics!
FULL MOON 1 Cancer 50 December 24, 2007 9:17 a.m.
ARIES : Family matters still high on your list of priorities.
Pluto edging you on to greater enterprises and endeavors.
The transformation comes in the form of a renewed sense of
belonging, within your local community. Finding your niche
and fulfilling your purpose, on many levels. As you allow
yourself to sink into this resurrected model of yourself,
you discover old skills and talents, which have lain dormant
for some time. Through this you will receive acknowledgment,
and praise for your services. It is time for many to move
into maturity.
TAURUS : Venus Scorpio for most of this fortnight, allows
your deeper sensual and sexual nature to emerge. This is a
good time, for you to team up with that special other, and
do some deep bonding. You have the support of the Planets,
however, as always, be careful not to put the beloved on a
pedestal from which they will ultimately tumble. Allow yourself
to be romantic, and keep your senses about you and look honestly
at what is in front of you, without painting a perfect picture,
and remain very present to this moment.
GEMINI : Conversation is all a little dry and lacking that
exciting edge of gossip. People are all about business and
money matters. Hmmm. This is a good opportunity for you to
apply your skills of observation and understanding. Teach
yourself to focus long enough to garner some of the knowledge
and wisdom that is currently coming your way. As mars returns
to your sign for the next two months, you will get the chance
to really implement what you have learned. Be well advised,
that this is good fortune for you, although hard work.
CANCER : With a lovely Cancer Full Moon this fortnight, you
will be feeling well received and loved. Sitting opposite
Pluto however, it could bring with it, the opportunity to
let go of some out-dated habits and old thinking. Of course
your emotions will be stirred, but all the better, for they
will head you in the direction you need to go. We are, all
us, headed into these times of accelerated change and with
that, comes inherent responsibilities for everyone. You will
discover what your role to play, is, over these coming weeks
and months.
LEO : As the Sun and Jupiter leave the sign of Sagittarius,
for the much more sombre tones of Capricorn, you will find
your life, finally settling down to a rhythm and routine.
Thank goodness you will still have Venus on your side, hankering
for a bit of an adventure, when everything gets a little dry
and monotonous. It is with the movement of the cycles, that
we get to truly appreciate the good things when they come
along. Use this time, to get things in order and prepare for
the coming times, when you may not have the opportunities
that you do now.
VIRGO : Mercury in Capricorn offering you all the support
you could possibly want, with respect to your mental activities.
If you’re intending to undertake some form of study,
this is the right moment to implement, it. Set your goals,
assess your priorities and work out a budget, that will support
you over this coming season. Achieving your desired outcome
will be easier now, then when you tried to start the same
project some months ago. It is like, you have the green light
now, and
this move is supported by the heavens.
LIBRA : With Venus in Sagittarius, you could be feeling a
little more restless, than is normal for you. Nothing really
to do, other than fulfill your need for adventure. Take yourself,
and your partner, to some romantic getaway, that allows you
to climb a mountain together, or do some diving or other sport
oriented activity. This will put a freshness into your relationship
which is much needed now. You will appreciate the break, once
you settle back into your daily work and routine. The fresh
inspiration that comes from this, has no price on it.
SCORPIO : Always looking for the opportunity to transform
your situation, and propel yourself forward, now is your chance
to make great headway. Mars is the key activator for Pluto,
and with this occurrence comes great movement. A bit like
the activation that is needed, to finally make the volcano
erupt, spewing forth molten lava. Be ready then, for momentous
change, which is about to overtake your life. All will be
in disarray for some time, however, the dust will settle again,
and this is the change you have waited so long for. Metamorphosis,
is a process, with natural stages of progression. Be patient.
SAGITTARIUS : As the Planets exit your sign, you will naturally
feel a slight deflating of the exuberance, of the past weeks.
Take heart, for this period is now about consolidating all
that you have learned and experienced over recent months and
even years. A coming of age, if you like. A graduation, if
you don’t. Time to move on now, to the next phase of
your evolution. Embrace the newness of this moment, for life
is really always about returning to the beginning. Find all
the things you can be grateful for and move forward into the
next phase, with an open heart.
CAPRICORN : This marks the beginning of your time to shine.
Not long after the birthday period, you will have Pluto entering
a sixteen year stint in your sign. Much is in store for you,
over these coming years, and you could be in high demand within
your community. Being known as someone, unafraid of hard work,
and with an unwavering sense of determination to succeed,
you will be sought out, to assist in many rebuilding projects.
There will be with this, the opportunity to remodel ourselves
and to find a new expression of true human morals, individually
attained.
AQUARIUS : Neptune continues to chip away at your rough edges,
and smooth you into a person of love, kindness and compassion,
with true empathy and understanding. Now, that has to be a
journey worth taking. Not that you have any choice really,
other than the one you made to incarnate when and where you
did, with this particular configuration happening during your
lifetime. Embrace this aspect of your life, and carry it graciously
into the uncertain future, where you can instill faith in
those, who seem to be losing theirs.
PISCES : Although most people, find you unpredictable, you
have another added quality of eccentricity about you, at this
time. Going about your business in your own way, and at your
own time, enables you to take that much needed space to reconnect
with the Divine and to recharge yourself. You are of service
to so many, even when it is not in your awareness to be doing
so. A radical quality is welcome then, in your daily activities,
particularly as you will be called to do much more worldly
service, over these coming weeks, months and years.
