Monday, December 20th:
Monday, the Moon remains in protective, nurturing Cancer all day. It will journey there until Tuesday late afternoon.With this Moon placement, we are more sensitive to what people say and therefore our feelings are more easily hurt -- so be kind to yourself and others. Self-Care is key for the next two and a half days ;-)
Emotional safety is important to us as well; we like connecting to the familiar and we enjoy nurturing ourselves and others -- home and family call to us, for instance. Make sure though, that your glass is filled before letting others drink from it, or you might start to feel drained and resentful.
Sunday night/Monday very early morning, we are invited to balance our need for self-care and emotional connection, against long-term thinking and strategizing to achieve our goals. (Moon in Cancer opposes Mercury in Capricorn, exact at 1:25am EST)
Monday early morning, brings an opportunity to connect to family (or friends that feel like family) and create breakthroughs around things that we enjoy through our five senses (e.g. food). This may also be a good tim e to find a unique or global approach on financial matters that bring us a sense of emotional security. (Moon in Cancer sextiles Uranus in Taurus, exact at 3:17am EST)
Monday afternoon, a harmonious Mercury/Uranus aspect becomes exact at 3:18pm. We started to feel this aspect build from last week, Saturday evening (Dec. 18th) on, and it will remain strong until, this Wednesday morning (Dec. 22nd). This aspect supports a connection between our higher mind and our day-to-day mind. We are able to receive inspiration from higher places and maybe even look into the future.
We are able to communicate our vision for a better future; insights arise from these communications. Original, creative insights and ideas can appear out of nowhere; as best as you can, stay open to these unique "downloads" -- they might change how you see and proceed with life ;)
This is a good time to communicate online, engage in computer-related activities or scientific projects, and also for anything metaphysical. Group activities like Meetups are great things to be involved with right now -- especially if they allow us to share our vision for a better financial future.
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 8-14 degrees of Capricorn, Taurus, or Virgo? If so, you will feel especially blessed by this connection. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Gemini, Virgo, or Aquarius (Mercury is the ruler of Gemini and Virgo; Uranus is the ruler of Aquarius)
Monday late evening, around 11pm EST, Mars in Sagittarius transits the degree of May 26th Lunar Eclipse in Sagittarius-Gemini -- and we may experience something that provides insight, most likely into our desire for freedom or adventure. We are invited to pay attention to how we act or react to certain things -- and to demonstrate our passion for life and for living in ways that help us connect to others, rather than leaving us feeling superior to them.
Observe how this plays out for you today or tomorrow: Where (or with whom) are you looking to interact? What are you most aware of? You are invited to act to release any outdated beliefs or cultural conditioning. What might clear the way, so you can move forward powerfully, with an open mind and clear information?
