Astrology Enjoy Some Dreamy, Inspiring Days This Week Published on December 2, 2019 Article by Cathy Coleman for Bodhi Tree Your Weekly Astrology Forecast December 2-8 The Sun continues to shine in sunny Sagittarius, and things look bright and hopeful. This first week of December is seemingly quiet on the planetary front, while at the same time Saturn is closing in on Pluto, growing toward their first exact powerful conjunction on January 12th. Jupiter moves from Sagittarius to Capricorn tropically on Monday. In Sagittarius, Jupiter is strong in the sign it rules, while in Capricorn it is in its fall. However, from a sidereal/Vedic point of view, Jupiter is in Sagittarius and remains strong. Mars in Scorpio is ambitious, focused, and driven, and much can be accomplished while it is in this sign through January 3rd. Mercury is still in its shadow phase through December 7, so some of Mercury’s communication issues are still in effect for another week. a slow start leads glorious, luminous days On Monday the Moon is void of course all day from 4:27 a.m. through 11:11 p.m. PST. Stick to routine, inconsequential tasks. Monday is not a good day for meetings and decisions, although Mercury is in a benefic sextile with Pluto, so it is a good day for deep, transformative thinking and problem solving. Jupiter moves into Capricorn where it will reside until December 19, 2020. Jupiter’s shift is significant, as it has moved out of the sign it rules, Sagittarius, tropically, where it is strong, and into the sign of its fall, Capricorn, where it is weak. It is time to be much more prudent and conservative with financial matters. Tuesday and Wednesday are sweet, inspiring days. A benefic Venus-Mars sextile is exact on Tuesday, encouraging a tender exploration of relationships or working on a creative project. The sensitive, compassionate Pisces Moon makes benefic aspects to Uranus, Mars, and Venus, and just one edgy aspect to the Sun on Tuesday. On Wednesday the Moon conjuncts Neptune, while also making benefic sextiles to Saturn and Pluto. These are compassionate, glorious days to give and receive love, blessings, and illumination. a dreamy and exciting mid-week Thursday morning is dreamy and indefinite, as the Moon is void of course in Pisces until 11:44 a.m. PST, when the Moon bounces into Aries. The Moon makes tense squares to Jupiter and Chiron. We may feel overextended and insecure, yet energized and hopeful. Spring into action, and all that you accomplish will lift your spirits. The Aries Moon aligns in a benefic trine with the Sagittarius Sun on Friday, giving an enthusiastic feeling that all is well—and exciting. This positive aspect helps to balance the insecurity of a Moon-Venus square. Essentially, it is a dynamic Friday. Enjoy something merry, bright, and festive in the evening to celebrate the joy of the weekend. a gloomy saturday and an expansive sunday The weekly lunar tension with the Saturn/Pluto conjunction colors Saturday, challenging us to balance our emotional energy that may feel overwhelming and gloomy. The Moon is void of course all day, so stick to routine tasks. This is NOT a day for holiday shopping; hold off the shopping until Sunday. Saturday would be a good day to decorate for the holidays and address greeting cards, after getting some vigorous exercise. The Taurus Moon dawns with a thunderous clap Sunday morning, as this fixed earth Moon joins Uranus, the awakener. While the Taurus Moon draws us to what is practical and comfortable, planetary aspects broaden our vision. Sunday is full of planetary energy that is dreamy, expansive, idealistic, and inspiring. Make the most of the excellent potential of this day. The Week in Short: Monday: Moon VoC all day, so focus on routine tasks. Jupiter into Capricorn for the next year. Tuesday: Sweet, inspiring day. Wednesday: Compassionate, glorious day to give and receive. Thursday: Moon VoC until 11:44 a.m. PST. Then with Moon in Aries, spring into action. Friday: A merry, bright, and festive day. Saturday: Moon VoC all day; a bit gloomy and overwhelming. Not a good day for shopping. Address cards or decorate for the holidays. Sunday: Practical yet dreamy, and comfortable, yet expansive wonderful day.
