The Moon's overnight and early morning activity — a square to Mars (3:55 AM PST), a trine to Uranus (5:19 AM PST), and an opposition to Neptune (6:50 AM PST) — stir up quite of bit of chaos to be dealt with today. The Moon's arrival in Libra (8:03 AM PST) brings a sextile to Mercury and a trine to Pluto that helps us to make the most of today's unpredictable atmosphere. This is an excellent atmosphere to bring about consensus and may produce some surprising new agreements and alliances. Despite the building impulsiveness, we have added ability to quickly recognize weaknesses and recheck plans. Next week's Sagittarius New Moon (5:43 PM PST 28° Sagittarius), which squares Neptune and quincunxes Uranus, offers some promise of a return to stability, However, maintaining enough flexibility to respond effectively to surprises will become increasingly challenging. Today's actions can help us to mitigate the disruption produced by the upcoming twists and surprises.


Weekly Summary

DECEMBER 7 - DECEMBER 13

"Never give up, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn."
—Harriet Beecher Stowe

The extended Grand Water trine energies that have dominated the environment since the last days of October come to a close this week. The Moon wanes in light and, in essence, there is a feeling that 'the waters are receding'. The potential for a 'fresh start' brings a great deal of optimism but not necessarily a solid sense of direction. Neptune stations direct midweek, joining Saturn in the march back into Aries towards February's Saturn-Neptune conjunction at the first degree of the Zodiac — 0° Aries. Neptune's direct station helps us begin to set aside any irrational fears or unattainable dreams 'washed ashore' by the extended Grand Water trine's emotional, 'deep waters'. However, we aren't quite ready to 'break new ground' this week which is likely to produce some significant frustration and impulsiveness. Mars squares Saturn this week and also approaches a square to Neptune, from Sagittarius to Pisces. We are tempted to embrace an aggressive self-righteousness, impatient to move forward but stalled by a confusing jumble of obstacles. The creativity and inspiration in this environment may truly be 'off the charts' but we just aren't likely to find the traction we need in order to pursue the expansive aspirations that this environment is stirring up. Taming impulsiveness and fully appreciating the opportunities that are available to pursue further consideration is the general challenge we are facing throughout the week. Mercury won't emerge from the 'shadow' of the last retrograde period until next week, Mercury opposes Uranus and trines Neptune before arriving in Sagittarius, producing a foggy inspiration that makes it difficult to effectively listen to different perspectives. Nonetheless, with it's return to Sagittarius on Thursday, Mercury brings forward an extremely well-informed, broad perspective. Mercury's sextile to Pluto at the end of the week, provides marginal help to maintain a broad perspective in the midst of the frustrating Mars-Saturn square. Despite the challenging frustrations, our minds can begin to turn towards the future this week. Only Chiron, Uranus, and Jupiter remain retrograde. Chiron will turn direct next month, Uranus in February, and Jupiter in March. (Mercury will also station direct in March, following a retrograde phase in Pisces, from February 26th until March 19th.) This week provides a great deal of support to recheck plans and identify any weaknesses. Next week's Sagittarius New Moon (5:43 PM PST 28-deg Sagittarius), which squares Neptune and quincunxes Uranus, offers the suggestion of potential for a return to stability — but flexibility will be lacking. We will also feel increased sensitivity to unexpected twists and surprises. Taking advantage of the chance for further consideration this week will help us to mitigate the disruption that is on the way in the next lunar cycle.

The potential for a 'fresh start' on Sunday brings a great deal of optimism but not necessarily a solid sense of direction. There is still more consideration and 'contemplation' to accomplish before we will actually be ready to 'break ground' on any new initiatives. We are tempted to display a great deal of aggressive self-righteousness on Monday. Wisdom is required in order to obtain the necessary degree of objectivity and hold onto a 'big-picture' perspective. Without a clear vision of how our actions can serve the 'greater good', we'll miss Tuesday's potential opportunities. Self-serving actions will leave us intensely frustrated. Daydreaming is the most likely pursuit on Wednesday. Impulsiveness may creep in to fill a void. We feel a great deal of inspiration to turn our focus towards the future on Thursday. The aspirational environment continues to encourage impulsiveness but there are valid intentions behind our desire to take action. Friday offers an excellent atmosphere to bring about consensus and we may see some surprising new agreements and alliances. Despite the building impulsiveness, we have added ability to quickly recognize weaknesses and recheck plans. The processing of disappointments and past 'slights' encourages a deep dive on Saturday. The more that we can embrace a 'big picture' perspective and simply 'clear the air', the more effective that we will be.

Saturday December 13, 2025

Mercury makes a sextile to Pluto today which offers marginal help to mitigate the Mars-Uranus quincunx and the forming Mars-Neptune square. The more that we can perceive today's uncomfortable aggressiveness and self-righteousness as a 'purge' of disruptive attitudes, the more we can see what is actually ahead of us instead of focusing intently on what is already past. The processing of disappointments and past 'slights' encourages a deep dive into elements that are — in the end — only holding us back from embracing the future. The more that we can embrace a 'big picture' perspective and simply 'clear the air', the more effective that we will be today.

Sunday December 14, 2025

Mars squares Neptune early this morning (3:43 AM PST) as it prepares to leave Sagittarius — just before midnight (PST) this evening. We are filled with a great deal of idealism and strong intentions but are likely to lack the vitality for immediate follow-through. Today's Sun-Jupiter quincunx highlights the challenges that we face in bringing together a complete plan-of-action that has the potential to achieve all of our idealistic intentions. The increasing intensity of the Sagittarius-Pisces interaction over the next few days will produce more 'intangibles' than any sort of clear sense of direction. Even so, there are 'gems' of insight to be gleaned from meditation and quiet reflection.


Weekly Summary

DECEMBER 14 - DECEMBER 20

"Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in."
—Michael Corleone
The Godfather Part III

We move through an extraordinarily 'thick' atmosphere this week, filled with deeply idealistic aspirations and ambitions. But while the deep, emotional 'Waters' of the past series of Grand Water Trines may have receded, we are left with a dense fog. The increasing intensity of this week's Sagittarius-Pisces squares produces more 'intangibles' than any sort of clear sense of direction. The challenge is to maintain our balance and personal confidence in the face of an almost continuous swirl of confusing challenges and obstacles. Nonetheless, we do gain an extraordinary level of support to maintain our balance with the arrival of Mars into Capricorn at the beginning of the week. We can begin to feel the need to shift from the idealistic optimism of Sagittarius to Capricorn's practical demand for tangible progress. Mars in Capricorn can help us to make the necessary adjustments in order to prepare for the Winter Solstice coming at the beginning of next week when the commitment to our individual ambitions and ideals will be tested. But navigating this week's 'fog' is no simple feat. Integral to our understanding of the emotional, water trine journey of the past few weeks has been the motion of Mercury, which made three connections to the nearly complete Jupiter-Saturn trine as it retrograded back through Scorpio. Mercury, now in Sagittarius, emerges from the shadow of that last retrograde period (November 9-November 29) on Tuesday, carrying the weight of communicating our individual 'Big Picture' perspective — the lessons learned from the emotional 'deep dive'. The challenge is to take the 'leap of faith' needed to put our new intellectual insights to the test. However, it isn't easy for Mercury in Sagittarius to stay focused on the 'Big Picture' perspective while moving through this week's intensely confusing 'fog'. Friday's Sagittarius New Moon (5:43 PM PST 28° Sagittarius) brings forward our intense drive to bring meaning and purpose to the overwhelming emotional journey that we taken over the past few weeks. But our confidence is tested by a Venus-Saturn square while the New Moon's square to Neptune and quincunx to Uranus increases our uncertainty. Nonetheless, the determination to stake out an independent, individual position seems to be 'baked in' to this new waxing lunar cycle and won't be discarded easily, despite what may seem to be insurmountable opposition and continuous challenges. While the last lunar cycle emphasized our connections to others, the new lunar cycle is challenging us to connect to our own inner knowing — the 'still, small voice' of our intuition. The determined desire to break free of restrictions is overwhelming but we will have to 'dig deep' in order to maintain our individual confidence — the belief in ourselves — that is required in order to actually free ourselves from what is holding us back and emerge unscathed from this week's fog. It's easy to become sidetracked by unnecessary distractions and lose sight of our core intentions. Our response to the Sun's square to Neptune at the end of the week may bring an inclination towards 'martyrdom', individual confusion — or even outright despair. But keeping our individual confidence intact is crucial as we reach next week's Winter Solstice. The tests that we face with the Sun in Capricorn will reveal whether or not we can maintain the 'courage of our convictions' or succumb to a tempting escape into conformity — 'falling into line' and 'going along to get along'.

Idealism and strong intentions are likely on Sunday but lack the vitality for immediate follow-through. Even so, there are 'gems' of insight to be gleaned from meditation and quiet reflection. We are encouraged to sort through conflicting bits of information and perhaps seek alternative strategies on Monday. While we may not clearly see the value of our efforts, we should not doubt that support is coming. We find a surprising level of confidence emerging on Tuesday. Intuition is extremely helpful — a 'still small voice' encouraging us to 'keep going' despite any apparent obstacles or confusion. There is a level of calm or peace beginning to cut through the intense swirl of idealism on Wednesday. We need to pay close attention to any unexpected 'twists' that threaten to disrupt that peace. The stubbornness in Thursday's atmosphere may be rather surprising. We find support to balance empathy and appreciation for the perspectives of others with determined independence. There are likely to be any number of confusing, chaotic disruptions on Friday. The determined desire to break free of restrictions is overwhelming but we will have to 'dig deep' to maintain our individual confidence — the belief in ourselves — that is required to actually free ourselves from what is holding us back. Our belief in ourselves is challenged on Saturday but ambition and aspiration has begun to 'take root', at least enough to keep us engaged. Our response to the uncertainty is varied and may include some inclination towards 'martyrdom', individual confusion — or even outright despair.
