The calm, cool, and rational heart of Capricorn Venus squares off with Aries Chiron wounding. How can you keep your head when something happens that feels like a threat to your identity? How can you be true to your ultimate want of long lasting relationships when something quick and sharp shakes you up?

Scorpio Moon opposes Taurus North Node. You are stepping into your future, and the deepest parts of you may feel protective, mistrustful, and hyper aware of what you are moving into. Can this really be right for you? Can you trust? Does the investigation you are doing beget results that equate with a yes? Or is something amiss and you can’t put your finger on it? This is Scorpio Moon’s work, to really clean out what needs to go, to focus on your power. Remember Scorpio Moon is sitting on the South Node, so acting as a luminary microscope on the habits, talents, and tricks you have up your sleeve. This is a chance to really investigate your what’s and why’s.

With the Yod: Gemini Mars as apex, energy moves out in the form of communication and thoughts that might be bubbling up within. Scorpio Moon is a private investigator born out a protective “fight or flight” mechanism, and it works with your impulse to be rational, and connect solidly with people. Gemini Mars’s quick and abstract movement might make your mind go awry, or your sentences. But maybe, just maybe, this is something you need to process, and the energy needs to flow.

Finally Scorpio Moon opposes Uranus, and surprising feelings or emotions might come up that have an edge. Maybe they are sexy feelings that have yet to be realized. Maybe they are from the depths of trauma. Either way, they could redirect you in a surprising way. Can you go with the flow and be compassionate with yourself?

Tuesday December 20th

Scorpio Moon square Aquarius Saturn @ 21 degrees

Jupiter enters Aries

Scorpio Moon trine Pisces Neptune @ 22 degrees

Sagittarius Moon trine Aries Jupiter @ 0 degrees

When Saturn squares Moon, we face off between our lineage and where we are in the world– right now. Scorpio Moon is bringing the skeletons out of the closet, Aquarius Saturn wants us to be bold, innovative, and visionary within our scopes. Aquarius wants our brain to get out of a rut, and yet Aquarius Saturn is our inbuilt rut. Aquarius will show us how to connect socially while Scorpio Moon provides suspicion, investigation, and automatic protective stingers to come out. There is a feelings versus thinking vibe to this square, Aquarius Saturn (in this case) is our higher selves, and Scorpio Moon, our emotional bodies.

After a run back into it’s ancient ruler; Pisces, Jupiter enters Aries once more for a tour through cardinal fire. This means that your Aries house is going to get a boost, expansion or luck. I don’t know about you, but I need this transition to light me up again. I feel spent from the Piscean "endings" vibe, the vast ocean of all-there-is isn’t helping me find myself. Aries Jupiter is initiatory, inspirational, and takes the leap-- there is a new, forward thrust to this transit that will last until May 16th, 2023.

This is energy is bold, new, and unapologetic for existing. It will push through with courage and bravado. How can you harness this transit for your own expansion, growth, and luck? Are you ready to turn a corner? This is about you– solely, and about doing YOUR work. If you’ve been busy distracting yourself with your friends, partners, children– and everyone else’s needs– this is the time to pull back and focus on where you are going, solo. You can bring others on the ride, but essentially, where are YOU going?

That question might be helped by benevolent energy between our fixed water Moon and mutable water Neptune. Our dreams, yearnings, and art will be born out of a practical and deeply-felt impulse, that is in your very tissues. And then Moon moves into Sagittarius to trine the Jupiter at 0 degrees Aries. Sagittarius Moon is ruled by this Jupiter's energy and will want to direct you outwards. Pay attention to what’s coming forth today. This is foreshadowing for Jupiter's tour through Aries during the upcoming month.

Wednesday December 21st

Winter solstice in Northern Hemisphere/ Summer Solstice in Southern Hemisphere

Sun moves into Capricorn

Capricorn Sun square Aries Jupiter @ 0 degrees

Sagittarius Moon opposes Gemini Mars, trine Aires Chiron @ 11 degrees

Capricorn Venus trine Taurus Uranus @ 15 degrees

Solstice is either the longest day of the year or shortest, depending on which hemisphere you live in, officially kicking off either the summer or winter. This is a sacred threshold no matter which part of the world you are, and has many celebrations of many names. It is an energetic portal to walk through, and we know this-- as Capricorn is a cardinal sign, initiating a time of tradition, ritual, and familial togetherness. The Sun in Capricorn puts the spotlight on saturnian things: tradition, hierarchy, checks and balances, structure, and accomplishment. Tangibility comes to center stage, wallets come out, spending is high, we want to feed and revel with each other, and we work hard to be ready to receive family.

We start out of the gates with a square between the Sun and Jupiter, at the 0 degree point of Capricorn and Aries respectively. There is a tension between being confident and ready to bound ahead with wild abandon, and the more fiscally responsible, careful energy of Capricorn Sun. This probably will come into play with spending, with time (which there is never enough of) and discipline. It’s possible overindulgence will be met with consequences, and that generational friction is possible.

Some interesting energy ensues with Sagittarius Moon opposing Gemini Mars while trining Aries Chiron. The fire trine gives oomph, motivation, and zealousness to healing and working with your wound. Perhaps you are turning a corner on something that you’ve been working through. But Gemini Mars won’t make it easy to process this, it’s squaring Moon, which is swift and immediate energy, likely anger or frustration that may not have through-line. You may not know exactly where the emotion came from or what exactly it’s all about. It might take you time to deconstruct, sit with, and ultimately gain understanding from, and this is also the advice for working through this kind of energy. Try to go through the process before bringing anyone down with you.

With Capricorn Venus’ trine to Taurus Uranus, we see practical results, twists, turns and unexpected changes to this predictable and traditional way of connecting. We find comfort in what’s familiar and expected. Sometimes that’s not possible, we have a new set of circumstances to deal with and ultimately this is a good thing. We might see it as something that “happened to” us, but ultimately, you do want to be stable, but not stagnant.

Thursday December 22nd

Sagittarius Moon trine Pisces Neptune @ 22 degrees

Moon trine Neptune is a beautiful time for medicine work, meditation, yoga, and art creation. There is spiritual growth, and an ability to work beyond the veil. Your intuition will be high, your sensitivities up, and your spidey-senses will be telling you valuable information. You just need to show up.

Friday December 23rd

Chiron goes direct @ 11 degrees

Capricorn Moon square Aries Jupiter @ 0 degrees

New Moon in Capricorn @ 1 degree

Capricorn Moon trine North Node in Taurus @ 10 degrees

Capricorn Moon square Aries Chiron @ 11 degrees

Capricorn Moon trine Taurus Uranus @ 15 degrees

Chiron going direct might be a little triggering. It’s going right into the wound, which is at the core of what it means to be ourselves. Austere Capricorn Moon squares Aries Jupiter to let us know that as far as we project out into our idealized selves, we are still made of all the ancestry before us, with the limitations, trauma, and expectations of that lineage. We are still rooted in these real bodies that don’t let us do everything that we want to, no matter how inspired.

After Moon squares with Jupiter it immediately disappears into the Sun for a new Moon. Capricorn new moon is a rebirth and seed to be laid for the practical future. This seed is cardinal earth and therefore asking what tangible results you want to see in your life. Capricorn is smart, hardworking and ready to lay the foundation and structure down to get where you want to go.

Capricorn Moon goes on to make a trine with the Taurean North Node, to fully plant this seed into the future. It then squares Aries Chiron so we feel it personally, what’s at stake, and then it trines Taurean Uranus. The unexpected triggers and reactions that come through us now are messengers from the divine. To truly do radical seed planting requires that we do the prep work for the seed. We are making sure the soil is prepped while the year starts to wind down for the “season.”

Saturday December 24th

Capricorn Moon conjunct Venus @ 17- 18 degrees

Moon conjunct Venus is a connective and bonding energy to work with. You are ready to spend the time, do the tasks, and either respect your elders, or be elders for the generation below. This is a big win and warm feeling after seeds were planted in this Capricornian field. Enjoy the intimacy and ease that comes with tangible reality, slowness, and just being.

Sunday December 25th

Aquarius Moon trine Gemini Mars square Taurus North Node @ 10 degrees

Today (for many) is a day of family and togetherness, but interestingly it’s a day that people will have to tap into their higher selves to get through. Mentally we are working well with our bodies, triggers, old stuff and being smart about how we are in the collective. Perhaps we’ve chosen our battles, perhaps we’ve set good boundaries. Perhaps we’ve also found ways to deal with our own dual natures. Whatever we’ve learned or mastered today with our emotional and energetic work, we’re also being asked to look into the future with how we handle things. Perhaps we are seeing things from a more macro standpoint, and from there our mission is different than we thought.

At any rate we’ve done well– this has been quite a year, and here we are nearing the end, ready to reassess and begin anew. But don't worry, friends, there's one more week of astrology for 2022!
