Overall this week may be a little quieter than we’ve had for several weeks, but not without some minor challenges to your patience. Mercury enters Sagittarius, joining the sun. This boosts our feelings of overall well being, hope and optimism. Neptune has been a strong player in the last couple weeks, and is this week as well. It’s a week to take a deep breath and do things that bring you pleasure and joy. It will be helpful if you can just focus on yourself, because things may feel awkward and out of sync with the people around you. Nerves may be jittery for no apparent reason. It’s time to pull back and cruise - bake, make lists, watch movies, take it easy, even if you feel like you can’t possibly. It is not a good week to try to plan everything or figure things out. It is a good week to daydream. In order for Sagittarius’ optimism to reach you, you’ll need to clear some space in your head. Meditation and general relaxation are the prescription for the week.
11/30 Full Moon in Gemini / Lunar Eclipse
Relax, this isn’t one of the giant doozies. But it is a supercharged full moon because of the (penumbral) eclipse. There will be internal revelations and epiphanies, probably unexpected because of Uranus’ influence. Those thoughts could be shadowy because of the influence of Saturn on Mercury. Watch what you say, words are powerful.
12/1 Mercury enters Sagittarius - our thinking processes emerge from the depths of Scorpio and we rediscover optimism and feel more positive.
12/5 Venus trine Neptune - romance, relaxation, and daydreaming
12/6 Venus quincunx Mars - Your love radar is out of calibration and your rhythms are a bit wonky. This affects all relationships but especially intimate ones. Socially, things can feel awkward and boundaries may be handled with discomfort. You may feel out of sync with your partner, or dissatisfied in a way that is hard to pinpoint.
12/6 Mercury quincunx Uranus - tense, “wired”, on edge, a bit nervous or jumpy You may need to consciously give yourself space to breathe.
ARIES - You may channel this week’s energy by feeling restless. You could feel like you’re on a different page than everyone else. Be aware of running off at the mouth and saying too much. What words you do say, make them honest and truthful and don’t piddle around getting to the point. Bear in mind that most everyone will feel hyper sensitive this week, including you. So just use caution with your words, and move that anxious energy out of your body the way you do it best...either take a run or have some sex.
TAURUS - This week is made for you. Pull back and please yourself, whatever that looks like. Be reasonable though and don’t go overboard. The point is to find balance, not to throw it off more. Moderation is key. Don’t commit to anything this week if you can avoid it. Test the water first before diving in.
GEMINI - You could be pretty prickly this week, feeling a bit hung over or a little too “seen” by that Full Moon on Monday. Your leadership is needed this week, but you will need to fight your “air”...meaning, don’t rely too heavily on your intellect and reason. Your emotions are actually needed this week. If you feel moved by something, there is someone in your circle that needs to hear what you have to say. So rather than speak from your head this week, speak from your heart.
CANCER - Your guidance this week is somewhat opposite of Gemini’s. Rather than following your heart and feelings, which comes naturally to you, you need to lean into logic to make decisions. Not that you are not logical normally. But it isn’t your primary mechanism. There is something very new trying to come through for you. This is something that will change the way you live your life, and it is not negative. But I do sense a big change. So when deciding how to approach things this week, really analyze the data rather than flying by your gut.
LEO - You have all the necessary skills needed to build the project that is on your plate. Your youthful, heart centered energy will give you the endurance needed to complete this. If you are learning a new skill, don’t be discouraged or daunted. You are likely to experience amazing growth from any effort you put forth right now. You are feathering your nest for the future right now.
VIRGO - You may have fallen in a little bit of a hole, Virg. You’ve been in this hole before, and you know how you got here. And that is ok. Forgive your patterns, and habits and oopsies, and just focus on the light above the hole. This is not a deep, black hole. This is an opportunity to use your optimism muscle. Because this will pass. Strive for awareness around negativity and self sabotage and just keep looking up.
LIBRA - Don’t let any delays or obstacles you see in front of you now discourage you from feeling optimistic. You have had some hard core ups and downs this year and this is just more of the roller coaster. Someone may not hold up their end of a bargain, or may fall through on a promise made. Your success does not depend on this person, however. So don’t get totally thrown off course.
SCORPIO - There is something in your life that requires pretty swift attention and a decision you may not feel ready to make. You will need to make it, and carefully, or it will be made for you. There may be a person in your life who, for lack of a better phrase, is full of shit. You will need to cut through the BS to get to the truth. And in this energy the truth is of ultra importance. Make sure you're being honest with yourself. You are fully equipped to deal with whatever this is, even if you feel you aren't. You're not alone, you know...
SAGITTARIUS - It’s time to act on whatever you’ve been sitting on. Move. Go. Do it. This is your sign that yes, now is the time to do the thing...the thing that came to mind when you read that first sentence. Phase 2 is ready, so go get dressed!
CAPRICORN - Well you certainly have felt the pressure this year from all those heavy planets sitting on your head and your plans. Some of the planets moving into Aquarius this month will help kick things off in a new direction. Coal under pressure becomes diamonds, and you will be sparkling in the next couple years. But to become your new self, you have to let go of parts of your old self. You’re entering a regeneration phase. Your diamond has been plucked from the earth, deep in a cave. Now you’ll be cleaned up and ready to take shape as a gem. If you’re capable of it at all, rest.
AQUARIUS - You are indeed entering a period of prosperity. You’ve been sensing it. You know you’re on the edge of it. You may be feeling the anxiety that comes from standing on that edge. You may also be overthinking about what needs to be done. Nothing needs to be done. Everything is ok. You’ve done the work, now enjoy the party. It is ok to sit down and relax.
PISCES - The foundation has been built. The work has been accomplished. It may be tempting to keep adding on to the plan, because it seems to be going well. Know when to stop. Be aware of overdoing and overspending and overachieving. The foundation of the house is complete. The walls need not be carved ivory or gilt gold. They need to be strong and stable, safe and secure. Be pragmatic in your decisions this week.
