12/6/22 ✨ Mercury Enters Capricorn
✨ Happy Mars Day!
SUN IN SAGITTARIUS | MOON IN TAURUS >> GEMINI
AFFIRMATION OF THE DAY: I am compassionate in my communication.
🪐 MAJOR TRANSITS:
♐️ MERCURY ➡️ CAPRICORN ♑️ (2:08 PM PT)
Communication gets a big dose of practicality as Mercury enters Capricorn for an extended stay. Mercury will station retrograde at the end of the month, making multiple trips back and forth through the sign of the sea goat through mid-February. Strategizing about money, business, success, and achievement come naturally over the course of these two months. But be warned- it's easy to come across as cold or harsh. Capricorn energy isn't exactly known for being warm and fuzzy... in fact, quite the opposite. With the messenger planet in this masculine sign, we're able to express ourselves in a more direct, matter-of-fact way. This is favorable for business dealings or negotiations, but it might take more intention to infuse compassion and empathy into conversations outside of the office.

🌔 WAXING GIBBOUS MOON IN TAURUS ♉️
The waxing gibbous moon gets comfy in Taurus. The moon loves to be here, inviting us to get cozy not only in our surroundings, but also in our skin. We crave good food and creature comforts. We can expect to feel more grounded and determined the next few days.
♉️ MOON TRINE ♑️ PLUTO (26º) 6:00 AM PT
Harmony between the moon and Pluto allows the death and rebirth cycle to unfold with ease, showing us what we need to release under tomorrow’s full moon. Transformation feels natural, but intense emotions are also possible in the process.
♉️ MOON SEXTILE ♓️ JUPITER (29º) 11:00 AM PT
We get a boost of optimism and hope as the moon connects with Jupiter. This transit helps us see silver linings and pull the positive from our emotions.
VOID MOON FROM 11:00 AM - 12:49 PM PT
The moon is void for a brief window, allowing the energy to die down. Nothing started now will result in anything significant.
🌔 WAXING GIBBOUS MOON ➡️ GEMINI ♊️ (12:49 PM PT)
The nearly full moon enters Gemini, illuminating our ability to communicate. We crave social interactions and intellectual stimulation under the Gemini moon. Our curiosity is heightened now, but our need for variety can also make us feel restless.

✨ TSJ’S TAKEAWAY:
It’s time for some serious talks… Messenger Mercury moves into Capricorn this afternoon, where it will spend an extended stay (thanks to a retrograde at the end of the year) for the next two months. The planet of communication in this practical sign helps us come to logical conclusions and speak directly. Business talks could benefit, but it will take a little more effort to infuse compassion into our interpersonal conversations. The waxing gibbous moon makes its final connections in Taurus- harmonizing with Pluto and connecting with Jupiter. The emotional transformation we’re undergoing continues its unfolding and Jupiter’s influence helps us find glimmers of hope in the process. The moon enters Gemini tonight, preparing to become full tomorrow. Expect to feel more social and curious over the coming days.
