The first week of December carries over the grand Trine in Water concluding with Venus in the Scorpio position. This closed circuit of energy takes in the power and blessings of women and opens hearts.
Saturn stationed direct on Thanksgiving Day and Mercury goes direct on November29, with Venus in opposition to Uranus. This energy challenges old rules of control and dominance with the potential of renewing values of basic life and the need to change and morph into higher principals toward a new frequency of love and appreciation that benefits human conscious development.
The Moon will be conjunct Saturn and Neptune just before it leaves Pisces on the last days of November, concluding the theme of extreme endings that plagued the last month. The fast-moving Moon carries deep sensitivity of pain and suffering that must be acknowledged and released as it enters Aries and takes on courage.
Mercury will be the last to leave Scorpio in trine to both Saturn in Pisces and Jupiter in Cancer over the first weekend of this month. This will bring old emotional and smelly business to a close. Truth will come out of hidden and suppressed wounds from victims who are free to tell their stories to clear the ground for regeneration.
Full Moon in Gemini
The last Full Moon of the year is on December 4 at 13 Gemini creating a Grand Cross in mutable signs, connecting with the North and South Nodes at 13 Pisces and Virgo. We can sort out the deeper meaning of changes with a sense of sweeping away debris binging healing and relief of suffering. Sun and Moon in square to the Nodes brings up and shifts fateful circumstances that resonate and are rooted in past eclipses.
Neptune, the planet of both spirituality and the duality of character, often containing the shadow and the light, stations direct on December 10th. It will finish its travel on the last degree of the zodiac for 49 days to its final entrance into 0 Aries on January 27. This passage is a major field of danger as it is the territory of the fixed star Sheat, known for shipwrecks, danger of watery situations beyond our control. This can be actual and metaphorical experiences. Good to keep a clear head and a watchful eye on weather and emotions.
Mercury re-enters Sagittarius on December 10th changing its energy to optimism and telling stories of new adventures. Venus passes over the position of the Great Attractor at 14 Sagittarius, which bends time and space, bringing in precognition and higher levels of consciousness. Both planets are rising ahead of the Sun in the morning sky. They operate as the lead protectors to the Sun, announcing new potential and raising our spirits. This is a time filled with celebrations and social events, where people come together to enjoy joyful moments and share happiness with one another.
Mars passes through the zone of the Galactic Center at 27 Sagittarius on the 12thof December and in square aspect to Saturn and Neptune, highlighting potential for the new year to bring a higher frequency of divinity.
Time for Purification
With the shifting energies and planetary alignments occurring during this period, it is an opportune moment to focus on releasing old, toxic habits—not only in terms of our dietary choices but also in the patterns of thought we carry. Reflecting on what we consume physically and mentally can help us to clear away what no longer serves our well-being. By letting go of unhealthy routines and negative thinking, we open ourselves to renewal and set the stage for a more positive and conscious future.
Start believing in a better life with purpose.
Mars enters Capricorn, the sign of its exaltation on December 14 and lasts until the 24thof January. These weeks can be purposeful and help to move projects ahead and work more efficiently. This is a time to be serious about our intentions.
On December 19, the New Moon will be at 28 Sagittarius, just 1 degree off the Galactic Center, and will be in an aspect of adjustment and compromise to Uranus the Awakener. Symbolically, these energies ignite and prepare us for the new beginnings ahead for 2026. We are receiving special light codes of new consciousness. The Moon slips into Capricorn by evening on this day and prepares for the Solstice Blessing in the next two days.
Winter Solstice 2025
The Winter Solstice is the time of least light for the Northern Hemisphere, conversely the darkest day of the year. It is the final season ingress where we have opportunity to turn our attention inward to seek a sense of balance and personal clarity. With it also being in the New Moon phase, we can do some personal journaling about our plans and desires for the coming year.
The chart for the Solstice has Mercury at the same place as the Full Moon back on December 4 and passing through the zone of the Great Attractor providing another emphasis on bending time and space, drawing in frequencies that raise the consciousness of the Earth and its inhabitants. We can focus more strongly on releasing old dimensions of war and the struggle to survive.
Venus is passing through the Galactic Center gifting us with increasing compassion and opening our hearts to gratitude and spiritual love and exchanging with others the seeds of purposeful shared existence as our planet also expands in consciousness.
Whatever your beliefs around religious celebrations, let us all share the intention to thrive peacefully together, to grow, to share clean air, pure water, and loving vibes for the New Year.
