Theme: Deepening connections

With Venus and Pluto almost conjunct, and in close proximity to Mercury, it’s a good time to uncover unconscious habits and tendencies and really deepen your understanding of yourself and others. With Mercury retrograde there is even more opportunity to be mindful of your speech and communications in general. The new Moon in Aries continues to spice up activity for a little while longer.

Living beings are, by nature, stainless, I shall treasure that stainlessness.
Reality is the bait, I shall not be lured into conformity.~Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche

The Moon is Void of Course today between EST USA 5.16pm until 9:44pm the next day. Avoid starting new projects, making new purchases, planning big events or signing contracts. Take time for inner reflection and self-care.

Theme: Good outcomes but…

Tasks get done and completed even though you might feel over-run and over-extended at times. With the Moon in Aries there is a ‘let’s get it done’ dynamic. With the Sun in Capricorn it’s ‘build it and get it done’. As Venus approaches Pluto there is more intensity in relationships and you are more aware of hidden agendas in yourself and others.

Wisdom is the leader for giving gifts, so too for morality, patience, perseverance and concentration.~The Perfection of Wisdom

Theme: Higher octaves

With the Moon conjunct Neptune and Venus sextile Neptune there is a strong sense of the spiritual connections between you, others and the world you live in. There is more of an environmental awareness, and a desire for transformation. You could lose yourself in day dreaming or escapism, but with the Sun, Venus and Mercury in Capricorn you can earth yourself, and build practical, meaningful bridges between the seen and the unseen.

The Earth is what we all have in common.~Wendell Berry

12/26&27/2022 Monday and Tuesday by Wangmo & Jampal

Theme: From darkness to light

There is a lot of activity going on with most planets and asteroids in cardinal or active signs. Monday’s Saturn conjunct Moon brings a sense of responsibility and feeling weighted down. The key is making time to connect with your heart. The Moon moves from Aquarius into Pisces today bringing a focus on undertakings on behalf of others. You have more penetrating insights into your circumstances.

I realize I don’t know very much. None of us knows very much. But we can all learn more. Then we can teach one another. We can stop denying reality or hoping it will go away by magic.~Octavia Butler

Theme: One step at a time

Welcome to the Sun in Capricorn – the leggo sign – building structures one block at a time with practical foresight and ambition. Be alert for the Capricorn droll dry humor. You might miss it! The Moon in Sagittarius draws your gaze to big horizons and big adventures. You can achieve good progress today with the tasks at hand.

Don’t approach a goat a from the front, a horse from the back, or a fool from any side.~Yiddish proverb

Theme: The turning point

With the solstice today you can experience the depth of winter or the height of summer depending on where you live, or something in between. Wherever you are it’s cause for acknowledging change – a moment of pause, reflection and celebration of the seasons and the link between the earth and the Sun. With the Moon and Sun in Sagittarius today you can aim high and spread your wings. Be careful not to over-extend those wings!

Walk as if you are kissing the Earth with your feet.~Thich Nhat Hanh

Theme: Everything passes

You feel weighed down today but it does pass: as with all things, nothing stays the same. Tune into the more subtle aspects of life. Meditate, follow your breath, rest in between work, and reflect. You have stocks of confidence to draw on so look about you to find them. Old battles, long past, can be put to rest. Lay down your armor and observe what happens.

Keep up the good work, if only for a while, if only for the twinkling of a tiny galaxy.~~Wislawa Szymborska

Theme: Non-distraction

Don’t let any turkeys get you down: the reactive moment can pass if you exercise wisdom. With the Sun in Sagittarius for the next few days draw on the natural optimism of this placement. The Moon in Scorpio is a counterbalance to optimism but it’s not necessarily negative: intensity can be revealing in its own way. Overall, today can be transformative.

Every great dream begins with a dreamer. Always remember you have the strength, the patience, and the passion to reach for the stars and change the world.~Harriet Tubman

Theme: Fortune favors the brave

With a grand trine between the Moon, Venus and Mercury, and the north node, harmony, good communications and beneficial relationships bring positive results. With the Sun still in close square to Neptune you still have to be mindful of your energy levels and emotionally, any habits to martyr oneself in difficult situations and mis-read the motives of others. With the Moon in Virgo it’s a good time to attend to details.

There’s no way to achieve liberation in dependence upon non-virtue.~Gyatrul Rinpoche
