December starts with a Sagittarius New Moon on the 1st, bringing moments of Truth and Candor while causing you to question some of your Convictions and Beliefs. This phase brings openings and opportunities for Growth and Progress.
The Sabian Symbol for the New Moon is, “the golden goddess of opportunity”. Be on the lookout for what possibilities may come your way.
Mars in Leo favorably aligns with the Sagittarius New Moon energizing your enterprises, undertakings and endeavors. You feel fired up and in an adventurous and playful mood, willing to take risks. By letting your Heart lead the way, you’re able to be Genuine and Authentic. This phase could take you far beyond anything you’ve known before as you’re now developing your potential and abilities, giving you the confidence to make bold moves and initiate creative projects.
This period could bring quite a show with over-the-top displays and demonstrations that’s difficult to ignore as it’s dramatically designed to grab your attention. Or perhaps you’re the one putting on a performance while others take notice.
The ruler of the Sagittarius New Moon is Jupiter retrograde in Gemini, while facing off with Mercury retrograde in Sagittarius, and aligning with Chiron in Aries; this influence allows you to open your mind, taking in a broader view, while turning your attention to any missed messages, announcements, rebroadcasted information, or you’re revisiting data and reports, or previous communications and conversations, enabling you to see things in a new light, arriving at new levels of understanding. You don’t know what you don’t know but you’re learning. However, the more you learn, the more questions that may arise. You may have to repeatedly go over some piece of information so that you learn or relearn it and it sticks – similar to studying for an exam, drilling, grilling and quizzing the facts, evidence and actualities.
Additionally, people that you haven’t heard from in quite a while could show up now, offering important lessons, messages or guidance – “when the student is ready, the teacher appears” and everyone and everything is your teacher in some ways. Or perhaps you play that role for someone else. You could spend time catching up and reconnecting, or getting to know someone on a deeper level, having long meaningful discussions that can feel almost therapeutic and soothing to your Soul.
Venus in Capricorn favorably aligns with Uranus in Taurus pointing out the constructive changes to your values, style and tastes, or to who and what you’re attracted to, and it’s become more and more evident lately. With a newly awakened awareness, you easily recognize who you Vibe with, and it’s possible to meet those that you have a spontaneous connection with because they’re on the same frequency as you. This can bring changes to your long-term relationships and associations. You appreciate quality and substance, time and patience, commitment, reliability and trustworthiness and recognize that some things are worth the wait while others are a waste of time.
On another level, there could be financial changes with your earnings, savings, or retirement plans.
It is important to mention Pluto making an historic shift into Aquarius several days prior to the New Moon on November 19th. This is the biggest energy shift of the year- and quite frankly, one of the biggest of our lifetime as none of us alive today have experienced it. Pluto has made a couple brief appearances in Aquarius since March 2023 giving us a small sample of what’s to come.
Pluto and the outer planets show generational shifts and changes, marking the sign of the times as it spends several years in a sign. Pluto hasn’t seen this slice of the Heavens since the years 1777 -1798.
Since 2008, Pluto has made its way through Capricorn. This period brought the breakdown, decay, deconstruction, unraveling, dismantling, reconstruction and/or reformation of many of the systems, structures, models and standards our lives have been formed around, both within and without, on the personal and collective levels.
This period may have brought lessons on power, authority and abuse, accountability, competence and maturity. Bringing forth a need to unearth, uncover and get to the nitty gritty – the down and dirty that’s risen to the surface to be dealt with and to eliminate blocks, inhibitions, limitations and whatever’s been holding you back, stripping things down to the bare bones, doing away with anything that no longer serves while reconstructing boundaries and reestablishing trust in some area of your life. It’s been a lot like living in a house while under construction, trying to function in the chaotic conditions of remodeling. It’s a messy process, but it also comes with the understanding that the finished result is going to be beautiful and much more purposeful.
Pluto will settle into Aquarius, helping to shape the next two decades.
Pluto is associated with themes of death and rebirth, the underworld, and the unmentionable, power and control, while Aquarius symbolizes HUmanity, the collective and community, freedom, independence rebellion, revolution, ingenuity and sovereignty. This influence brings ‘power to the people’ vibes, whereas Capricorn shows the power and the cracks within the hierarchical systems and the old order.
During Pluto’s stint through Aquarius, we’ll see revolutionary changes and technological advancements that fast-track our future, transforming our lives in ways only imagined– everything is possible. Be mindful of those things that could be used to greatly benefit HUmanity or for the purpose of control and enslavement – you’ll have to use your own discernment.
On another level, there can be a resurgence of inspiration and spontaneity, stepping into your own power, reinventing, rebirthing and regenerating on a soul level, facing the collective shadow, consequently resulting in a collective dark night of the soul along with a time of awakening and renewal.
Everyone is at their own level in this shift in consciousness, as we all experience and play our part in the co-creation of this Age of Aquarius New Earth Paradigm.
Imagine the life you want to live and the world you want to live in, while aligning with that vibration and making moves that bring that reality closer to you.
New Moon Blessings and Good Vibes to ALL!
