✨ Happy Saturn Day!
SUN IN CAPRICORN | MOON IN CAPRICORN >> AQUARIUS
AFFIRMATION OF THE DAY: I believe in magic.
🪐 MAJOR TRANSITS:
♑️ MERCURY SEXTILE ♓️ NEPTUNE (22º) 5:17 PM PT
Mercury’s supportive sextile with dreamy Neptune allows us to imagine, fantasize, and envisioning possibilities. Even with Mercury in practical and serious Capricorn, Neptune’s influence helps us believe in the magic of the holiday season. Communicating through creativity can be a powerful use of this energy. Spiritual pursuits are favored as well. Neptune in Pisces brings reassurance by giving us the ability to soften and heal.
🌑 🌒 🌓 🌔 🌕 🌖 🌗 🌘 🌑
🌑 NEW MOON IN CAPRICORN ♑️
The new moon in Capricorn asks us to go within and find our inner sense of security and authority. It's from this place that we can look to the new year and set long-term goals. This is the beginning of a new cycle; a new journey. Plan, prepare, and take things one step at a time.
♑️ MOON CONJUNCT ♑️ VENUS (17º) 3:00 AM PT
A meeting of the Capricorn moon and Venus infuses loving awareness into our emotional state. We can find beauty in tradition today and appreciate the wisdom of the generations before us.
♑️ MOON CONJUNCT ♑️ MERCURY (22º) 11:00 AM PT
It’s easy to say how we feel when the moon meets up with Mercury. Writing our goals for the new year or creating an itinerary for the holiday weekend feels natural now. Talking through our emotions or journaling are favored now.
♑️ MOON CONJUNCT ♑️ PLUTO AND OPPOSITE ♋️ LILITH (27º) 7:00 PM PT
A conjunction between the moon and Pluto could make for an intense Christmas Eve. Powerful emotions could surface- watch for the tendency to control, manipulate, or be a little too sassy… An opposition to Lilith can bring out our inner bitch. Try not to let holiday stress get the best of you.
VOID MOON UNTIL 11:14 PM PT
The moon goes void until just before Santa’s visit. This is the time to nestle all snug in our beds, while visions of sugar-plums danced in our heads. Let the stress of the holidays quiet like the falling of fresh snow. There’s nothing more you can do now.
🌒 WAXING CRESCENT MOON ➡️ AQUARIUS ♒️ (11:34 PM PT)
The waxing moon moves into Aquarius just in time for Christmas. We can look to the future with fresh eyes over the coming days. New perspectives are possible- especially when we deviate from our normal routine or scenery. We crave eccentric experiences and we’re more likely to let our freak flag fly!
♒️ MOON SEXTILE ♈️ JUPITER (0º) MIDNIGHT PM PT
Just as Santa makes his way down the chimney, the moon connects with jolly Jupiter and abundance arrives. This transit brings excitement and helps us lean into hope. We might even be too excited to sleep!
✨TRANSITING IN THE BACKGROUND (within a degree)
✨ TSJ’S TAKEAWAY:
It’s easy to believe in magic this Christmas Eve as Mercury makes a supportive connection to dreamy Neptune. This is the perfect transit for watching holiday movies and listening to your favorite Christmas carols. Creative projects and spiritual connection are favored today too. The Capricorn moon makes conjunctions to Venus, Mercury, and Pluto throughout the day. This morning, it’s easier to express our love and share our emotions, even under the serious Capricorn moon. But by tonight, intense moments are possible. Be mindful of how you’re reacting if you’re feeling overwhelmed by holiday stress. Just before Santa comes down the chimney, the moon enters Aquarius and connects with jolly Jupiter, bringing abundance and excitement and a change of scenery!
