Building Structures.
The New Moon in Capricorn falls at 12º on January 2nd at 1:33 PM ET. As we enter this new year, we are given a fresh lunar cycle—one where we are called to reform and restructure. The New Moon in Capricorn grounds us as we embark on a journey toward growth. It supports, creating foundations and structures where there once was none. Standing like a mountain in the middle of the ocean, it is a shelter to keep us from drowning in the icy sea of Winter. This New Moon is concerned with where we lay our roots and set ourselves up, acting like a space of protection as we find our way. Here, we start to build toward something bigger than ourselves.
However, when we carve out our space on this mountain, do we lock ourselves in? When does a structure become too rigid, too restrictive? Saturn is the leader of this New Moon, where it redefines, restructures, and rebuilds all that has come into focus over the last year. We know that path isn’t always easy, but with hard work comes reward—every time. Saturn isn’t just the ruler of obstacles, but also where we reach the pinnacle of success. We have ascended up the mountain, made it to the top, but now we have a different perspective of life atop the peak. To rest peacefully on top of that mountain, we must be willing to let some things go. Saturn is gifted support from Mars, backing our ambitions with motivation. This is about calculated action and intentional movement—a reminder that even in the face of hardship we are immovable, unshakeable, everlasting.
This New Moon comes with a trine to Uranus, where innovation and releasing the shackles of old narratives light the way. We must understand the story of the Devil in Tarot, where excess and extreme scarcity leave us in the dark. We have to bring it back to a balance. Uranus is the Fool, pushing us to leap into new possibilities. This energy is backed by Mercury’s ingress into Aquarius, where we don’t just hope to embody this idea, we actually believe it to be our only way. Yet, in our moments of staring over the ledge, we are told to also seek support—especially as Mercury in Aquarius has our mind focused on collaboration. We are not alone as we free-fall into the unknown. Uranus will ensure we are rewarded through our willingness to have faith and take a chance on ourselves.
Venus plays an interesting role here, still retrograde from December, as it sits close to Pluto (also in Capricorn) and holds Neptune close in a harmonious sextile. It is from self-reflection and our ability to transform our inner world that we actually learn to ground our dreams into reality. All of this works together to support that Uranus trine to the New Moon, but it won’t come without a confrontation of the shadow.
Forgiveness and compassion lead the way toward greater self-acceptance. It is from here we can truly enjoy the fruits of our labor and sit in our success. The New Moon sets the tone for the year to come, so how will you work with this energy? This is a pathway built with long-term potential. Nothing is impossible–– when we have faith.
If you have any personal planets in your chart at 8º to 16º, you will feel the effects of this New Moon the most. Especially those with strong Cardinal placements. So, let’s break this down by sign!
NOTE: Since this New Moon falls near the calendar New Year, I have included Journal Prompts for each sign! Enjoy!

We begin the New Year with a New Moon, a phase focused on fresh starts and renewal. New Moons are when we plant seeds and open doors for new opportunities, perhaps even revisiting our previous goals in new ways. This New Moon is one that keeps us focused, grounded and not without a little excitement (thanks to Uranus).
The New Moon falls in your 10th House, focused on your career, life direction and your goals toward your personal idea of success. You may want to take a hard look at your life direction and career and decide if it aligns with you and where you want to go. You could seek out new jobs, promotions, change your line of work or even solidify your space in your career. There is a sense that you are being noticed now, too. The 10th House is a public house, one where your image is important. Authority figures and prominent people are watching you and paying attention to what you are doing.
Luckily, both the Sun and Moon are trine Uranus in your 2nd House. This suggests that there could be a little extra something financial coming your way. All of your hard work isn’t unappreciated. If you are out of work, you may find that you are putting out resumes, having interviews or even considering other avenues for your own personal next steps. Either way it does seem that money is there, and perhaps unexpectedly so.
Interestingly, Venus is still retrograde in the 10th House of your chart — and it will be for a few more weeks. You are really combing through what is important to you in your work and your career. Maybe old bosses, coworkers and important work relationships seem to bubble up at this time. You may have to renegotiate a few contracts or really take a hard look at how you are being valued in what you do and provide. Mercury moves into Aquarius the same day as this New Moon, and it brings the network with it. So, you have the right people on your side to support, if you just ask.
Use this New Moon to help you make the appropriate moves in your career or life direction. Pay attention to pathways that open up in front of you, and reconnect with people from your industry. Seek help for any pending projects or issues from professionals. Rethink what you want out of your long-term goals and make commitments to starting the process.
Journal prompts:

A New Year and a new phase of the Moon. We start this year with a fresh cycle where we start to consider that we deserve something different. The space where you allow yourself to grow is the one that takes flight, especially as this New Moon falls in a fellow Earth Sign.
The lunation peaks in your 9th House, where you are asked to reach far beyond and stretch toward new horizons. This is a time of learning, understanding and making time for your own potential growth. This, in part, requires you to take a few more risks. You could be taking on a new course of study, itching to travel, getting in touch with what inspires you, or simply just adjusting your mindset. This is a call to change your perspective a bit, too.
Uranus, sitting in your sign, trines the Sun and Moon suggesting that you may surprise other people with the growth you’re looking to undergo or with the new pieces of yourself that you are learning to embrace. Add a dash of spontaneity in your life and truly give yourself space to roam free.
Venus, your ruler, is still retrograde — sitting in that 9th House. This is perfect timing for this New Moon, as it feels like a bit of a turning point. You could be coming to terms with some of the things you are personally confronting. There are a lot of internal philosophical moments that you may be having, where you are almost forced to reflect on how far you have come and what steps in your journey still lie ahead. Venus asks for you to shed those old beliefs. Mercury moves into your 10th House, where space for fresh perspectives actually come from work and your life direction. Maybe the pondering you are doing is related to the work you do and where you see yourself in the next few years. This would be an ideal time to take to contacts in your industry and hold those important meetings. People are listening to you.
Use this New Moon to reignite the flame. Get inspired and reflect on all the wisdom you have gained in life. Practically apply knowledge from your past into the present moment, and allow your dreams to take flight. Growth is inevitable — so move with it, not against it.

A New Moon falls at the start of the year, and we are asked to consider new areas of growth or change. This is a new cycle for the Moon, but in some ways, also a new cycle for ourselves, as well. This is a time where we can begin to embrace what will be and what has come to a close.
I would say the word “cycle” is important to you, especially as this New Moon sits in your 8th House. The 8th House rules intimacy, cycles, magick, shared resources, death/beginnings, and the shadows. You are descending into the shadow, and you are asked to confront what lies beneath the surface. Resilience is key as you walk through fire and ice to get to the core of what keeps you in your holding patterns. Like a Phoenix, you can rise again, burning brighter, faster, and hotter than ever before — but it may require a personal confrontation to your own limitations first.
Luckily, Uranus supports the Sun and Moon from your 12th House, and there is a feeling of closure from the depths. You are seeking space for quiet, isolation and solitude. Maybe it is the post holiday slump, but you are finding yourself wanting refuge. There is a call to close doors and make peace, and Uranus will gift you handsomely for this. It isn’t always easy, but it is necessary.
Venus retrogrades in your 8th House and Mercury shifts to your 9th House. Venus has old lovers, partners and those you have been intimate with show up for you — or maybe your mind is just on those you have been connected with before. You seem to be making amends. Venus reminds you of your value and your worth as you have exited those old relationships and builds up new confidence for the current ones you have and the new ones you will forge. Mercury’s placement in Aquarius now also allows your mind to grow and move on. You are seeking different opportunities. If money has been tied up at all with courts, creditors or really with anything, expect to see that start to shift at the month’s end or at the start of February.
Use this New Moon to do some shadow work and confront your fears. Open yourself up to the changes in life without controlling outcomes. Focus on reconnecting with parts of yourself that you thought you had lost. Reclaim your power and call back your magick. Resilience goes a long way.

You are craving more balance right now. This is no secret. The New Year starts with a fresh lunar cycle that prompts you to seek harmony and find the peace in everyday life — especially in your relationships. Boundaries are more important than ever.
The New Moon falls in your 7th House. This is place of relationships and partnerships (romantic, platonic, business, etc). Here, we find ourselves in a space where we want and need to understand ourselves and others. There is a balance and a reciprocity here. Some of you may get engaged, married or take a relationship to a new level — commitment is the name of the game. Others may commit more to themselves and even walk away from more harmful or outdated relationships that stand in the way of personal success. Whatever it is, you seem to be making a strong pact — whether with you or someone you care about.
Uranus surprises you from the 11th House. It seems that you are in demand. People want to stay connected with you, talk to you, see you even. It feels like you are getting support from all over. Your networks are strong and you may have exciting news or surprises crop up around this New Moon. If you are single, Uranus could even bring an unexpected potential partner. If you are attached, do something spontaneous with them and try to get out and go on a little local adventure.
Venus is retrograde in the 7th House, so there are old hang-ups around relationships that do need to be confronted. Boundaries may be tested, issues with personal value may show up, but overall, this is a time for reviewing your place in the relationships you uphold. If you are feeling like you are not getting your share, now is the time to make those changes. Remember, this doesn’t have to be romantic — keep your eyes on all the other relationships you have, too. Mercury is now in your 8th House, having your mind dig deep to uncover any inhibitions or fears you may have around attachment or old patterns that need to be broken. Don’t be afraid to have those powerful conversations. The only way someone will truly know how you feel is if you actually let them know.
Use this New Moon to focus on your relationships, whether with yourself or others. Try to make connections that feel inspiring and exciting. Recommit to someone or something and restore a balance in your life. Re-engage with people from the past and rework a long term goal! You may have to be a little more patience than normal to see any of your intentions or actions develop from this lunation.

More than most signs, you may be more focused on your health, work or daily life walking into this New Year. This is no surprise, especially as we start the year with a new lunar cycle. This lunation is about long term goals and ways to commit to things that may impact your routines.
The New Moon in Capricorn highlights your 6th House of work, service, health, and everyday life. You could be looking to start a new routine, exercise regime, or even a new job. You may making changes to any of these areas of your life. Some of you may need to be more healthy, while others are finding new work routines and environments to start the year out right. You could also be welcoming a door closing in these areas, as well. The 6th house is about resolution, and it seems that is where you mind is at — even if you aren’t fully ready to commit to anything yet. You are better suited to make bigger commitments in February or March (after the Venus and Mercury retrogrades).
Uranus is VERY helpful at this lunation, working with the Sun and Moon from your 10th House of career. It isn’t so much that you may be changing your work environment, but also completing shifting your path in your career or life overall in some way. Uranus speaks to surprises in work front and with prestigious people. There are new opportunities unfolding, similar to a Fool’s leap into unknown territory. This frees up a lot of your personal time, and it restores a better sense of work/life balance (something you have been missing lately).
Venus has been retrograde in this area of your chart, so there is definitely a call to focus on what you value most in the work that you do. Venus will have your eyes on your health and how you care for you body in general, as well. This is a great time to focus on some more self-love and make amends with parts of you that you may have long tried to ignore. Venus eases up any rigidity, and it welcomes you to reimagine your routines. Mercury, now in your 7th House, spends some time helping this narrative through the idea of balance. Perhaps there are important relationships that need to be rectified or reconnected. Mercury has you more willing to share and create important dialogue.
Use this New Moon to make changes to your diet, exercise regime, and your routines. Maybe go back to a practice that you have not engaged with in a while. You could be reworking projects or paperwork at work, or simply rehashing old issues that arise — finally bringing things to close (projects as well). If you have had talks of a promotion or growth in your career, those will come back around now, too. Try not to control outcomes right now. Let it unfold and wait until the end of the month (or better in February) to make any major decisions— after Venus and Mercury are all in direct motion.

You start the year perhaps with a bit of creative flair or seeking to have a bit more fun than usual. The New Year brings a New Moon with it, where you are told that pleasure is important. Finding joy in the small things is more impertinent that it has been in a long time. This is just the start of some longterm projects, conceptions or ideas that you may have brewing.
The New Moon falls in your 5th House, which rules creativity, conception, happiness, and children. If you have been considering conceiving (an idea, a child, art, etc), then this New Moon will be for you. Even if children aren’t on the mind, I would consider that this is a good time to try new things. The 5th House is about joy, sport, fun and pleasure. Getting out and doing whatever it is that makes your heart sing. This is also an excellent New Moon to meet new people — romantically and otherwise. It sort of puts you center stage in a way that you haven’t been in a while. Are you willing to take up a little more space? Stand out more?
Uranus is very helpful at this lunation, in trine to the Sun and Moon (all in fellow Earth signs). This creates surprising circumstances — perhaps more you surprising yourself than anything else. Uranus is sitting in your 9th House, giving you some gusto on proving to yourself that you are worthy enough to take risks on. You know that you have some exciting opportunities that lie ahead, and it seems that part of that is giving yourself more credit and having more faith in the journey before you. The more you are willing to let go and leap, the better off you will be.
Venus is retrograde in your 5th house, where this New Moon will fall. Here, we see some questions come up around how you love yourself, how you show and receive love and how you are willing to give yourself space to shine a bit more. There are moments where you are asked to allow the self-doubt to subside but also get to the root of the relationship you have with yourself — perhaps making peace with any inner critic and self-deprecating dialogue. You know you have too much to offer to keep putting yourself down or allowing others to put you down either. Mercury, now in your 6th House, helps to keep your mind organized and willing to see the changes that lie ahead. You could be a bit more health-focused or diligent about the ongoing pandemic now, trying to maintain a better balance. Additionally, Mercury’s entrance into this area of your chart can make your work life a bit more busy and may have you caring for others — especially when it comes to health matters.
Use this New Moon to get back in touch with what you love. Focus on play, rest, and creating. Re-explore old hobbies and games. Make space for what makes you happy. Talk to your inner child and give love to the actual kids in your life, too. Remember that you keep the fire in your heart going. Even in the darkest moments, it can be a source of warmth and inspiration.

The start of the New Year has you a bit more nostalgic or focused on family. Maybe it is about gathering with those you love or just staying close to home. You are requiring a bit more rest or quiet, too. The New Year brings a New Moon, and there is also a call for new and personal traditions.
The New Moon in Capricorn turns your face toward your inner world, your emotional foundations, and your home/family. Especially as it sits in your 4th House, the area of roots. You may be looking to move, buy, sell, or rent. You could be redecorating or just making your house more of a home. Alternatively, you may be more active with family matters or looking to have a quiet entrance into the year after a busier holiday season. If you are doing anything home-related and the process is a bit slower, know that it will see a turn of events toward the end of the month as your ruler, Venus, stations direct motion.
Happily, Uranus trines the Sun and Moon at this New Moon, so there is a bit of excitement or unexpected news coming your way. You may receive a sum of money that is owed to you or a gift around this time that helps to create a better sense of security as you lay down new traditions or foundations. This is because Uranus is sitting in your 8th House. Keep in mind, if the money isn’t for you, it may be given to your partner — as this House also rules shared resources. Uranus is also seeking to bring you and someone closer together, and you may be surprised by the spontaneity that ensues as you open up a bit more emotionally. Know that this requires you to be real and honest with that person, however, and not just telling them what they want to hear.
Venus, your ruler, is retrograde in this 4th House. As I mentioned, some things may be under review or delayed around the home or with family. Perhaps you are reconnecting to old family members, having to go through mortgage approvals or even deal with financing for a remodel. Venus is holding money up, but know that it is on its way. Part of the process is making sure that you remain committed to whatever you are creating or building for your future. Mercury, now in Aquarius, sits in your 5th House. Your mind a bit more on the fun side to life and welcoming opportunities where you can create. There is a dreamy edge to this. Indulge a bit and allow yourself to wander — finding pleasure in the present. It will be a nice escape for you. If you are trying to conceive, kids will be top of mind — but February may be a better month.
Use this New Moon to focus on your home. Look for property. Put your home on the market. Move. Redecorate. Change your space. But with Venus’s influence, you may be going back to fix or change what you have already started. Family will figure strongly, as will your emotional foundations. Take care of your heart and spend time withdrawing. Answers come more clearly toward the end of the month.

Take time at the start of the year to be more intentional than you normally would be. This year begins with a New Moon that requires focus, diligence and stability since it falls in Capricorn. This is the start of a newer cycle but an end to an old one, as well.
This year has taught you so much — there is no question about that. As we enter this New Moon phase, you are now asked to apply what you have learned and find solutions to problems that have been pending. The New Moon falls in your 3rd House, highlighting communication, short distance travel, siblings, and your thoughts/ideas. Your words hold true power now. People are listening, but in all reality, you should be listening too. This is a time of gathering information and learning through your interactions with others. Consider that some of what comes up at this New Moon may be leftover conversations, ideas, and interactions from before.
Uranus trines this New Moon, luckily, from your 7th House. The most important conversations you will have will be one on one and with close relationships in your life. It no shock that any news you receive around this New Moon will be somewhat unexpected. You may find that a partnership, close friend or family member may surprise you (mostly in a good way) with what they say or tell you. This will spur you becoming closer to them. Uranus also asks for you to find new ways of communicating to those you love and being more spontaneous with other people. Old ideas or outdated mentalities need to be let go.
Venus will retrograde in the same house as this New Moon. Here, you will find yourself combing through past interactions you have had with others. You may be asked to repair relationships that are rocky and establish better foundations with ones that are important to you. Venus will ask you if you are really listening — to others, yourself and everything around you. You may not be hearing what you need to hear. Keep your eyes and ears open. Mercury, the planet of communication, will now be in your 4th house, where your mind will travel more with family and your roots. Expect to go through old memories and maybe reconnect with family in a new way. Alternatively, you could be making a personal amends with your own past.You are transforming from the inside out.
Use this New Moon to stop and listen. Interact with those close to you, and engage in deeper conversations. See others as a source of inspiration and open up a dialogue, even if it feels hard to have. Use your words as balm for you and others.

A New Moon falls at the start of the year, and we are asked to consider new areas of growth or change. This is a new cycle for the Moon, but in some ways, also a new cycle for ourselves, as well. You may be tasked with find more personal security and keeping yourself more grounded.
This lunation falls in your 2nd House, which rules material resources, self-worth, value, income, and morality. You could be seeking or finding new sources of income around this New Moon, or even just making changes to your financial picture in general. There is a call to focus on where you find security in your life and reimagining it a little more. Your self-worth does come into play here, as you may need to be creative and flexible in learning to see yourself in a new light. When was the last time you truly had pride in what you do and talked yourself up? Take a moment to really see how much more stable you are now than you have been in the last few years.
Uranus is very helpful from your 6th House to this New Moon. It brings up exciting changes to your routine and your work life. If you get a promotion or a new job, maybe it comes with more flexibility or just different responsibilities that give you more room for growth and change. Uranus wants you to free yourself from old habits, regimens and mentalities around work that don’t serve you. Alternatively, some of you may have an “a-ha” moment around your health or boundaries too. If something has gone un diagnosed or accounted for in some way, Uranus will help you now. Be good to your body right now. It will thank you.
Venus will be retrograde in your 2nd House, where the New Moon will fall. This will have you dealing with impostor syndrome. You may be unable to see how you are valuable to your work or those around you. This does you a disservice, as your talents are needed. Some of you may end up reconnecting with old co-workers or jobs. Additionally, you could be combing through your resources, transactions and finances. Venus will have you less likely to spend and ask you to save more, as this time of year sees funds are more tight. Mercury will be sitting in your 3rd House at this lunation, as well. So, you could be signing a contract (pay attention to the financial part and read through it carefully) or really just looking to talk with people. Mercury’s placement in this area is giving you an extra edge in communication and dialogue that you may not have had otherwise.
Use this New Moon to find a new source of income. You may hear back from an old employer or a place that you interviewed with previously. Old co-workers may come back around and unresolved issues with self-worth will be more prevalent. Work on establishing your value and redefining what security and success truly look like to you. Find comfort in where you are, who you are and what you have in the present moment.

We begin the New Year with a New Moon, a phase focused on fresh starts and renewal. New Moons are when we plant seeds and open doors for new opportunities, perhaps even revisiting our previous goals in new ways. This New Moon is one that keeps us focused, grounded but not without a little excitement (thanks to Uranus).
There is a spotlight on you, and you are coming into your own. The New Moon opens a doorway for you — perhaps even a few doorways. You may be caught in figuring out which direction is the “right” direction. The Sun and Moon align in your 1st House to re-inspire you and bring back lost motivation. The ask here is that you do what actually FEELS right. You can begin again and set yourself up for future success, but this may require a little introspection first, especially as Venus retrogrades in your sign. This is time to welcome more autonomy, seek out personal motivations and establish goals that you want to achieve this year.
Uranus trines the Sun and Moon in your sign. It adds a sense of excitement from your 5th House, reminding you how important it is to embrace what makes you happy. There seems to be some celebration — whether it is the holidays, a birthday or maybe just a sense of enjoyment. Some of you may find out about an unexpected conception, a new project, meet a new person of interest or even just feel creatively charged! Whatever it is, Uranus wants you to have fun and really just lean into anything that brings pleasure and adventure in your life.
Venus retrogrades in your sign, as I mentioned. Here it has you going through what you personal value and what you believe in. You may be questioning your own motivations and sense of identity. Venus is reminding you that a little self-love goes a long way. It is a time to re-establish a better relationship with yourself entirely. Mercury, now touring your 2nd House, reinforces a lot of this and also attracts situations of comfort. Mercury has your mind going through your finances or your resources, and you could make some changes in this area in the coming month.
Use this New Moon to dive into a world of possibility. Reconnect with your happiness and motivations. What fuels you? What gives you life? Work on re-engaging with your needs and setting your boundaries. Life is about living, and you are being reminded how important that can be.

A New Year and a new phase of the Moon. We start this year with a fresh cycle where we start to consider that we deserve something different. The space where you allow yourself to grow is the one that takes flight, but part of this requires release and closing doors for you.
The transits as of late have you withdrawing a bit more than normal, especially as your 12th House is being activated. You are working through emotions, feelings, thoughts, and connections behind the scenes. Distilling is a word that comes to mind. This New Moon in Capricorn will bring this to the forefront more than it has been the last few weeks. You seem to be finishing up a project, putting a past issue to rest, and preparing yourself to move on to the next phase. But before you can fully move forward, you have to let something go.
Luckily, Uranus trines the Sun and Moon from your 4th House. It seems that part of letting go is dealing with the past or maybe even something that you used to use as a point of comfort. Not all things can stay forever, and Uranus teaches you the power of leaping into the unknown. You may not know the outcomes of the year ahead, but you understand that you can’t continue on as you have been. There will be changes to your family or home life or your personal foundations, and with that, there will be changes to everything else. As we close a door, many more will open for you. 2022 leaves room for so much possibility and growth, especially with Jupiter in your 2nd House and Saturn continuing through your sign.
Venus is retrograde in your 12th House, where the New Moon will fall. Part of this retrograde is to help you build a better relationship with your intuition and make peace with personal closure. There is a sense of forgiveness in this transit. If mistakes were made, then give yourself grace. The past is in the past, it is time to move on. Mercury in your sign, sitting in your 1st House, helps you find the strength and motivation to drive ahead. It has you mind on your desires and knowing that you are embracing autonomy in a new way.
Use this New Moon to work through what has been left unresolved. Tie up loose ends and focus on regaining your personal power. Decide what may need to come to an end, but also celebrate the space for a new beginning. Take time to sit with your feelings and listen to what you pick up in the liminal space.

The start of the New Year has you a bit more future focused or dreamy than normal. Maybe it is about knowing that this year will feel different for you with Jupiter in your sign or maybe you are still feeling the holiday high. You are requiring a bit more connection than normal too. The New Year brings a New Moon, and there is also a call for new points of growth and opportunity.
You are finding yourself in a place where community is becoming more and more important to you lately. This could be that you are starting to branch out and connect with new people, or simply reinforcing the relationships you have already established. Whatever it is, people will be there to support you — if you ask for it. The New Moon in Capricorn comes to spend time in your 11th House, where your future, your goals, and your connections come into focus. This would be a great time to reach out to friends, plan out your year ahead, or even dream up what the next few years may have in store for you. You may be itching for a new experience, or to get back into a network or space that you were once a part of.
Uranus is in your 3rd House and working well with the New Moon. It reminds you of the power of your voice and how your words hold influence. Surprising news or new contacts can pop up now. You may feel busy or in demand in some way. Uranus is ensuring that you are finding the right people and the right words. Dialogue and conversations are a point of growth. Do not be afraid to share how you feel. There is an intuitive component to this as well, as Mercury sits in your 12th House. You may be looking to close doors on old thought patterns or seek closure behind the scenes. Make peace. Trust your feelings. Listen to your intuition.
Venus is retrograde in your 11th House, where the New Moon will fall. It isn’t so much that you are looking for closure, but also that you may be re-evaluating who your friends are. You may be rethinking who you align with or perhaps reinforcing the relationships you already have. Venus may also have you rethinking your goals or dreams for the future. Things shift and change, and Venus wants you to have a good relationship with your present self, as much as you hope to with your future self. Remain bright and keep your hopes high. Better situations are on the way.
Use this New Moon to come back to a community you may have left behind. Reconnect with old friends and re-establish yourself in the world. Reimagine your goals and focus on your future outcomes. Pay attention to how the present seems to inform your decisions. Venus needs you to reflect a little before acting.

Creating Dialogue.
The Full Moon in Gemini falls at 27º on December 18th at 11:35 PM EST. This is the first major lunation in Gemini that has not been an eclipse since Summer 2020. A lot has come to the surface, and information has been shared, exchanged, and completely altered our perceptions. Gemini is about flexibility, adaptability, and integration. Here, we take the lessons we have learned from the last 18 months and act like the Magician to amalgamate them and turn them into something new. As if the experiential wisdom now informs our present reality. Where do we go from here? Gemini says that we have some processing to do.
With this being a Full Moon, there is a call to release. We must release blocks in our minds, limitations in our voice, and information or ideas that no longer serve us. Why be tethered to something when you can expand and float away into new probabilities? Gemini sees the “yes, and” and everything in-between. There’s no polarity, just grey area. When we let go of preconceived notions and release the expectations of others, we can actually listen to ourselves for the first time. We are begged to listen. So, what do you hear? The words ruminating inside are waiting to escape from your lips like ghosts in the night. You have not just sought truth, but found it. Now, it is time to build upon that truth.
The Sun and Moon both work well with Jupiter at this lunation. This collaboration points to positive outcomes and major moments of growth. Jupiter is helping to bring a fullness to the lessons of Gemini and Sagittarius–– to remind us that we are as much the teachers as we are the students. Perfection is ever-changing, and it shifts to fit our needs. So why define something so intangible? Jupiter asks that we stop creating confines, and start living in the realm of possibility. When you finally let go, you are truly liberated. Of course, this message comes through as well in the Mercury trine Uranus aspect around this Full Moon. Mercury may feel confined in Capricorn, but Uranus harmonizes with it and sets it free. Uranus is the higher octave of Mercury, and this can lead to ingenious ideas and inspiring conversations! Fitting for a Gemini lunation. Let your mind run wild and start nurturing budding ideas.
Venus will still be in a close conjunction with Pluto, now slowing its pace, as it stations retrograde the next day. Venus will have time to reflect and revisit much of what was started after November 5th. So, even as you release from this Full Moon, more will be revealed. We will shed skin with Pluto and nurture wounds with Venus. Any negative self-talk will have to change.
Gemini has the ability to shift its way of thinking, and this aids us as we enter the Venus retrograde. To continue the theme of shedding, Mars will help us navigate the past in its conjunction to the South Node. We have fought to let go of so much, and we remained victorious in the end.
Yet, we have to recognize the work it took for us to get to this point and not discount the warrior-like nature that allowed us to win the battles. This was a hero’s journey, evidenced by the New Moon eclipse a few weeks ago. Now that this chapter closes, we can start to see life in a new way. Like the mutability of Gemini would hope, we integrate what we have learned.
We are putting down the sword and grabbing the pen. The fight is over. We rewrite our stories and create new futures to explore. It is a new beginning.
If you have any personal planets in your chart at 23º to 29º, you will feel the effects of this Full Moon the most. Especially those with strong Mutable placements. So, let’s break this down by sign!

Keyword: Integration
Sagittarius Season is starting to come to an end, as is 2021. However, this year wouldn’t be complete without the final lunation: The Full Moon in Gemini. The eclipse series of Gemini/Sagittarius may be over, but this Full Moon comes to bring things together — and for you this is about integrating everything you have learned up until this moment.
The Full Moon shines a light in your 3rd House, where we learn, adapt and integrate. This is the house of communication — a time to know that your voice holds value. Over the last few weeks, you have been seeking new horizons and now you can put what you have explored to the test. In this space, we share, talk and create dialogue. Your mind could be full of racing thoughts. Important conversations can be had and ideas can be exchanged. Generally with 3rd House transits, this is a busy time where people are trying to get ahold of you. Your phone and email will be going off and you seem to be on the minds of others. Alternatively, you could be extra chatty now, too, especially with Jupiter in a good angle to this lunation.
Jupiter does trine this Full Moon, bring friends and those in your network or circle around you. Jupiter is spending its final days in your 11th House, and now you can enjoy all of the growth you have made toward your future — continuing that even into the people you have met and those that support you. Your visions of what could be have been possible because of the people you have surrounded yourself with — and that can’t be underscored. You are likely going to be around close friends or at some sort of gathering around this lunation as Jupiter is in a celebratory mood.
Mercury leads this Full Moon where it works with Uranus, both in your work houses. Mercury may suggest that work isn’t really letting up right now, but there is some sort of important contract or project going on. It seems to be one that can really showcase your talents and you may even surprise people with your ideas or what you think now. Uranus in your 2nd House may even suggest a financial increase, bonus or even just a boost to your own self-worth as a result of the hard work you have been putting in. Venus and Pluto are also in your 10th House and Venus will be retrograde soon. So, you will be on important people’s minds for a while — perhaps getting more notice than you realize. Of course, with Venus about to station retrograde, any financial decisions can feel confusing or maybe not quite what you were expecting. Don’t be afraid to own your worth and get what you deserve if the opportunity arises. Watch your spending in the coming weeks, as Venus Retrograde may have us regretting our purchases later.
Use this Full Moon to find power in your voice. Get in touch with those around you and share what is on your mind. Write things down and find ways to deal with the busy life you are surrounded by. Try to quiet those voices in your head that hold you back and seek help for any anxiety you may be taking on or hold. Perspective is everything. You need to see things a little differently in order to get ahead.

Keyword: Resourcefulness
We may have started a new series of eclipses in your sign, but we have just ended the series in your resource centers of your chart. Now, we finish the year with a Full Moon lighting up your 2nd House. This is a time to take stock in what you own and what you have. Consider the ideas around security and how you personally feel secure.
With this lunation in your 2nd House, this rules finances, resources, valuation and worth. Some of you may be undergoing changes to your financial picture, even changes that you may not fully see yet. There could be increases to what you earn, new job opportunities or even ways to obtain additional resources that you had not seen as available. Alternatively, you could be thinking of walking away from a “stable” resource in favor for using your own talents or pursuing something entirely new. The last 18 months have taught you what you truly value in your work and in your life. So, this is about giving you space to take the next steps. Watch your spending now and find ways to save. If this Full Moon is not financially related, then pay attention to how you see yourself, what you believe in and what you stand for. You may tasked with releasing outdated mentalities around your ideas of tradition, security and worth. Your emotional resources are just as important as your financial.
With Jupiter in good aspect to this Full Moon, I do feel that you are getting proper recognition at work. Jupiter has been touring your 10th House for the last year, elevating your position and bringing your face out into the world in some way. People know who you are, even if you do not realize it. There has been a person in a more “powerful” position that has been trying to help you, too. It seems around this Full Moon that things may pay off. Jupiter brings a gift through your work that may increase or change your sense of security. If you work for yourself, you may bring on a new client or have a busier week than you anticipated.
Mercury leads this lunation, where it is sitting in your 9th House. Mercury is joining Venus and Pluto in this area, where growth is the way. It seems that you are tired of feeling stuck or stagnant and now you want to make changes. Uranus trines Mercury, giving you a rush of energy and lots of ideas around how to start the New Year off fresh. Uranus is in your sign, so some of the things you say, share or learn will surprise (you and others). Tell people what you are thinking. Your opinion matters more than you may realize.
Venus, your ruler, stations retrograde the day after this Full Moon. You may be combing through your morals and beliefs — learning to have more faith in yourself and possibly the universe (or something bigger than you). This is a time to go though what you have learned through experience and see how it is being applied. Ask yourself how you can take more risks in your life and reignite that sense of adventure. With Venus in your 9th House, there is a call to reaching beyond the horizons. Venus’s retrograde in this area can have you reconsidering decisions you have made and really have you trying to figure out what “risks” are worth the reward. If you want to go back to school and have been sitting on the idea for a while, you may come to a decision by the end of January.
Use this Full Moon to get a handle on your resources, material and otherwise. Figure out how to spend your energy — and on what. See what potential opportunities arise around money and try to network with people to see if newer clients or work can come up. Comb through the things you own and purge what isn’t good for you anymore. Get your finances in order. But above all else, focus on how to call back your power, your self-worth and your potential. You have to let go of what stands in the way of you seeing your true value. You are worthy.

Keyword: Beginnings
Now that the eclipses have ended in your sign, the next few months will be telling about what you have learned and the changes you have undergone. There have been major shifts in your autonomy and identity — as well as your relationships and your boundaries. We end the year on a lunation that lights you up to see you stand more firmly on the ground you walk on.
The Full Moon is in your sign, where your 1st House is being illuminated. Now is a time to focus on your desires, motivations and wants. What are you passionate about? Where do you feel your most true? How can you embrace the new identity that has blossomed over the last year or so. Change is not always easy, even for an adaptable sign like you. So, give yourself space to grieve parts of you that you have let go but also remember to embrace the new you that stands here today. The Full Moon does ask that you see the value in all that you have done, a point of reflection. There may be further release, but you are more ready than you ever have been. There can be a sense of “finalizing” and “separating” that comes this lunation, as well.
Jupiter trines the Moon, reminding you of the growth and potential that lies ahead. Jupiter has been touring your 9th House and showing you that the only way out is up. You have challenged yourself to see things different and soar to new heights. Now at this lunation, Jupiter gifts you something personal. It shows you new path ways that clear up and opportunities that arise. It seems that all of the work wasn’t in vain. If you are going through a court case or anything legal, Jupiter will be helpful at this time — focusing on justice or fairness in the outcome.
Mercury, your ruler, leads this lunation. It sits in your 8th House, having your mind go through the resources that are outside of your own. This can deal with bonuses, commissions, partner’s money, divorce settlements, etc. However, this area of your chart is also about intimacy, shadow work and your own personal fear/inhibitions. Mercury reaches out to Uranus to help you break free of past habits that may have been more self-sabotaging. Instead, Uranus looks for liberation from what was. You are bringing closure to an important chapter in your life. Part of this seeks to make you more comfortable with the discomfort and find possibility in the uncertainty.
Venus retrogrades the day after this Full Moon in the 8th House, as well. So, anything that you have been trying to finish up that deals with financial obligations may be extended or pushed into review until the end of January. Don’t fret though. Venus will ensure that you have everything you need in the meantime. There is a call to recenter yourself a bit and try to break out of unnecessary patterns: see the Mercury/Uranus trine above. Venus RX is a good time to shift your priorities and re-evaluate what is important to you. Maybe other people’s opinions don’t hold as much truth as you once thought.
Use this New Moon to focus on what you want out of life. See what brings your joy, passion, and happiness. Seek out desires and don’t be afraid to make your needs known. Work on creating more balance in your life and enact your boundaries. It is important. Instead of carrying the burdens, seek help. You have to release what no longer serves you now — whether that be a person, idea or something else. You are in the spotlight.

A call to quiet. You are itching for peace and a slower pace now. You have been working so hard the last few weeks. A demanding schedule for you, or anyone, can be taxing. However, this Full Moon invites you to find more serenity in your life. Sometimes, peace is created, not found.
Your 12th House is being highlighted, a place of quiet and rest. You may feel a little run down or like you need some time away. Listen to your body. Because Full Moons signal release, you may be asked to close a door or let something go, as well. This isn’t always easy for you, but you know it will be better off if you do. This is also about service, but not always to another person. It can be to yourself, your body, your heart, mind, or soul. You need not always sacrifice to care for yourself. This Full Moon will highlight where you could use more balance, rest and realignment.
Jupiter is helpful at this Full Moon, working from your 8th House. There could be an unexpected or auspicious gift that comes your way. Jupiter has been helping you learn to redefine security while breaking bad habits that stand in your way. There is a feeling that growth comes from dealing with shadows that have been neglected. Seeing as this Full Moon is trine to Jupiter, there is much to celebrate. Use this as a reflection point of the last year for yourself, so that you can end the year feeling accomplished with how far you have come.
Mercury leads this lunation, where it sits in your 7th House. Those close in your life are taking more prominence now. You seem to be valuing with other people have to say and think. Mercury trines Uranus, bringing up exciting opportunities and new connections. Partnerships may be formed or strengthened as you are taking the time and energy to share and receive. Uranus brings about new ways of looking at those close relationships in your life and tell you that spontaneity is what is missing. Try to do new things and enjoy those around you. Seek out different those in your friend group and connect with people you admire or value.
Venus will retrograde after this Full Moon, where it will move back through your 7th House (where Mercury just entered). It seems that you may also be reevaluating how you approach some relationships in your life. Venus is asking you to see who adds value (emotionally, spiritually, mentally, etc) into your life. But also consider your boundaries. Venus RX in the 7th House is a time to figure out to maintain autonomy outside of those close relationships. We can honor the space where we share, but perhaps you need to value yourself as much as you do others. Not everything must maintain the status quo for the sake of harmony.
Use this Full Moon to really bring yourself in. Take time to reflect, rest, and create your own peace. Don’t let anyone or anything take that away from you. Focus on what you can receive and what you can release. This lunation is potent for you — finally closing a door, even if it isn’t easy. Some decisions aren’t to be made lightly, but you know in your heart what the outcomes will be. Take care of yourself.

The future can feel so far away, but we forget that it is unfolding even in this present moment. This is the last Full Moon of the year, and our focus starts to shift on what is coming up in the next year. However, there are still a few more weeks left of 2021, and some of them will be the most important for you. One thing to remember though, you are not alone in all that you have and all that you do.
This Full Moon comes to light up your 11th House and remind you of the people you have in your corner. You are really seeking some connection with those you consider to be your friends or even in your community. You may even be readjusting what your community is made of. You are in a period of growth, but it hasn’t been easy especially with Saturn opposing your sign. This House also rules your hopes and dreams. You may be changing and shifting your outlook on your future self — learning how to better seek support to make dreams a reality. You asking for help or leaning on others doesn’t make you weak. It is a reminder that you can be filled and nourished by others, as much you may nourish them.
Jupiter is in a trine to this lunation, where it is sitting in your 7th House. Important relationships come to focus and help you understand that you are not alone in the things you want to do, create and build. Jupiter can bring important relationships into our life, but this isn’t just romantic — it can also be in business and otherwise. Consider the relationships that you have allowed to grow this year and flourish. You can be seeing the benefit more than ever before.
Mercury leads this Full Moon, where it will be hanging out in your 6th House. It seems that you are signing contracts or working on new projects at work — possibly even taking on a new job, client or moving offices. Mercury signals a fast-paced timeframe, where things are changing quickly. This energy is added as Uranus trines Mercury from your 10th House. You are finally take leaps to bring major freedoms in your work/life balance. If you did take on a new job, it seems that you will likely be in the position faster than you anticipate. You may have to learn as you go. You could also just feel the pressure of the end of the year deadlines. Try to take it easy when you can.
Venus will retrograde in this same area of your chart. So, you could be spending some time over the next few weeks combing through old work or reevaluating your decisions. Some financial questions may arise, but also old relationships that you have formed from previous jobs can come up, too. Retrogrades always invite us to explore the past. This one is no different. In the exploration of what was, try to find more value in who you are and what you are. You have worth beyond the work that you produce.
Use this Full Moon to call upon your friends and community. Seek help and ask for it when you need it. People will show up for you. Don’t falter in the face of fear or allow anyone to undermine you. Take control of your future and go in the direction of your dreams. Focus on what really matters to you. You create the outcome.

Keyword: Satisfaction
You are one who isn’t afraid of hard work, but maybe there is a release around this notion. Why do we have to work so hard for the reward? Can things be easy and still satisfying for you? Consider that this last Full Moon of 2021 sits at the top of your chart and shines a light brilliantly on you. You are getting noticed in more ways than you know but also you may be seeing areas that need your attention, too.
The Full Moon falls in your 10th House. A position that sits at the top of your chart. The Moon will be beaming a light here, having you focus your attention on your career, life direction and practical goals. You know that you want to do something different in this area of your life. Is it a new job? A promotion? A complete 180º? Whatever it is, the eclipse will bring it to the forefront of your mind. Some of you may move up, while some may quit or lose a job. Others may feel a general pressure at work, and it can be the catalyst for something new coming later on. Now is time to see where you can lean into more work/life balance.
Jupiter is in a beautiful position to this lunation, where it will trine the Moon. Jupiter is sitting in your 6th House, growing work opportunities that come to you. The last year has seen immense change in the areas of health, work, routines and projects. This has been one of the busiest years for you yet. Now, you can sit back and reap some reward and take stock in how far you have come. Jupiter will bring in one last gift before shifting signs at the end of the month. You could take on a new client or change jobs. You could start a new health routine or even simply rework your schedule. Just remember to include some play time in there.
Mercury, your ruler, leads this Full Moon from your 5th House. Here is that conversation of joy, pleasure and playtime. Mercury will have your mind on wanting to enjoy this time of year and relax — even with a demanding schedule. Find what brings you pleasure and don’t be afraid to play hooky a little bit. Uranus trines Mercury suggesting that you could be invited somewhere or that you could come up with a very creative idea! If work in publishing, anything creative or education, this energy will benefit you most. Uranus is teaching you more about freedom and allowing you to release limitations that you have created. Remember that part of that is found through giving yourself time to enjoy the present.
Venus will retrograde the day after this Full Moon in the same area of your chart that Mercury is in. So, this will be a time to comb through your hobbies, creative ideas and sense of fulfillment. You may be reevaluating what happiness means to you. Perhaps pleasure needs to be a focus. New relationships, children and anything that pulls on your heart will also be in review at this time. You may need to rethink how you approach where you find comfort and how to welcome more fun in your life overall.
Use this Full Moon to build a bridge for yourself. Focus on your next steps and your direction in life. Allow yourself to shine at work regardless of what others may say. If a job isn’t a good fit, then start looking around for something else. Work with your roots and nourish your foundations. Get intimate with your partner and dismantle the tensions that may arise. Create boundaries with anyone that tries to overstep. This is a pivotal Full Moon for you. Really give yourself space to go after what you want.

Keyword: Trust
This is not a time to compromise what makes you feel alive. You have worked hard to give yourself more freedom. Now you are asked to rewrite the narratives you had once written in your head. The perception of what is possible may be limited by what you are seeing, and not fully enveloped in what you are believing.
This Full Moon will teach you the value of growth. But growth isn’t always simple. Your 9th House will be shining bright, and this turns your focus to finding new pathways and reaching goals. You may be seeking new adventures and itching to see what lies just beyond the horizon for you. In some ways, you know that change is coming. You can use this Full Moon to also bring your attention to the skills you have gained and the new ones you will, or plan to learn. This is about applying your wisdom. If you are looking to go back to school, this lunation could bring opportunity. If you are simply trying to just expand your horizons in life and branch out, there is space for that, too! Really, the sky is sort of the limit for you — but it requires trust in yourself first.
Jupiter is in a beautiful position to this lunation, where it will trine the Moon from your 5th House. Ideas around happiness, joy and pleasure come up. Where do you feel most happy? What does actually bring your pleasure? Jupiter is trying to expand that in your life and has been for the last year. You will be rewarded with something that you have been trying to make come to fruition. If you were considering conceiving anything (children, creative projects, art, a romance), then this could be a great start for you. You could alternatively even engage your own inner-child and reignite lost passions in your life. If you are looking to meet someone romantically, take time to socialize.
Mercury leads this Full Moon from your 4th House. There seems to be a flurry of activity happening in your area of home and family. But positively so, especially as Uranus trines Mercury from your 8th House. If you sold a home, you may receive the funds from that sale or some of you may be gifted an unexpected sum that is meant to help you with a purchase of a property or renovation. In addition, Mercury may also bring you closer to family (chosen or given) in general. Tis’ the season as they say, and it seems that you are seeking the comfort of those you love most.
Venus, your ruler, will retrograde the day after this Full Moon occurs. This brings even more attention to your 4th House, as Venus has been transiting this area. You could redecorate, make some changes around the house or even mend broken fences with family members. You could also be caught up in the process of reevaluating the value of something close to you — including emotional value. This is time to release fear or memories of the past that inhibit you in some way. Venus is asking that you embrace your emotional well being as a way to truly find more inner peace. Retrogrades dig up the old — so old people, relationships and family members may come around again.
Use this Full Moon to assess the big picture. Where could you use more adventure in your life? You could feel a push and pull to act immediately, give things some time to settle. You will see that you are on the brink of a new journey, one that allows you to take the lead. You can explore new perspectives, educate yourself and seek out more spontaneous experiences. Nothing is perfect, but you can enjoy every moment that is set out before you. No time is wasted when you truly are living.

You are in a space of introspection in a way, but this is not a problem for you. You seem to be transforming and looking to re-emerge in the coming weeks. But right now does not quite feel like the time. You are quiet and swimming through the waters of your own depth. What was once shadowed is now illuminated.
As the Moon reaches fullness, it will shine a light on your 8th House. This is an area of your chart that rarely sees the light of day. Here, the focus is on all you share intimately with others — your resources, your emotional nature, your fears, and your healing. There is a call to get deep and reflect on your path up until this point. The 8th House points to cycles. Your resources will be in question or come to mind — in a material sense and otherwise. You could receive unexpected sums of money, have larger debts to pay or even just start to reframe your financial picture. You are asked to share more deeply with those you trust and open up, especially when you find yourself in a place of fear and uncertainty.
Luckily, Jupiter is helpful to this lunation. It has been in a period of growth in your 4th House for the last year. It trines the Moon to remind you of the value of reflection and amending the past. Memories shift to points of growth and areas that you can finally release. It may be time to mend the broken fences that protect your home — metaphorically and literally. You are in a space of tending to your needs and your quiet contemplations. Jupiter can also bring get joy and happiness to family related matters and things around the home.
Mercury is the leader of this lunation, and it is now in your 3rd House. Here, Mercury teaches you the value of voice. Pluto and Venus both have been doing this for a while, but now that the planet of communication is here, it will easier. Things that are hard to say will no longer feel so hard. Uranus will trine Mercury from your 7th House. This is a time to have pivotal conversations with someone you are close to. Relationships seem to surprise you in a positive way and could add more spontaneity in your life! Find time to be open and talk about anything that comes to mind!
Venus will retrograde the day after this Full Moon. This will also happen in your 3rd House. So you may lack some confidence in saying what needs to be said or perhaps there is a clinging to old ideas that need to be released. Venus will have your mind going through what you value and where you find worth — dialogue will end up being one of those things. You are in a space where you are asked to integrate all that you have learned in the last year or so, and the Venus RX period will make sure you choose the most important bits of information. During the 6 weeks when Venus does retrograde, pick your words wisely and opt to really listen to what others are saying. You may be surprised by what you hear and learn.
Use this Full Moon to break bad habits. Shine a light on the shadows in your life and face your fears. Open up about things more intimately with people you trust and allow others to support you more deeply. Reframe your financial picture and focus on ways to alleviate a scarcity mindset. Even as the material resources may ebb and flow, there will be plenty of opportunity for a fresh start. Reclaim your power. This is only the beginning.

Now that the eclipses have ended in your sign, the next few months will be telling about what you have learned and the changes you have undergone. There have been major shifts in your autonomy and identity — as well as your relationships and your boundaries. We end the year on a lunation that lights up your relationships and the others in your life. This is aptly timed since we just had a New Moon in your sign a few weeks prior.
Life is about a give and take, oftentimes we may give more than we receive. This can create an imbalance, whether or not you realize it. So, take a minute and really reflect on the word “receptivity”. What does this mean to you? The Full Moon on the 18th brings awareness and light to your 7th House. Here, a partnership, relationship, union or important person is coming into strong focus. Now consider for some of you this is more business related than personally related. You may be reckoning your boundaries and your space with this other person or entity. Have you been giving too much? Are things off kilter? What needs to be addressed? This Full Moon puts so much emphasis on others that you may need to step outside of yourself to see what is really happening. Perspective is going to be important.
Now Jupiter, your ruler, is very friendly to this Full Moon. It is sitting in your 3rd House helping you find the words you need to reckon any issues that may arise in relationships. Jupiter has kept you busy this year, and right now is no different. You seem to be in demand with people constantly trying to get ahold of you. Jupiter is looking to gift you something for all of your hard work in the last year. Dialogue is a point of growth and you could truly see the value in speak your mind in ways that you have not in a long time. You are well-received and this especially benefits your partnerships and relationships. You may even be signing a contract around this Full Moon.
Mercury is the leader of this lunation and sits in your 2nd House. Mercury will be bringing up conversations around money and security — perhaps how your talent comes into play with those things. Mercury will touch on Uranus in your 6th House suggesting that a bonus, raise or monetary increase is likely based on your work performance or a client that you have. Uranus has been shaking up your 6th House for bit, helping you find more freedom in your daily life and routines. With its helpful angle to Mercury, this leaves you more space to explore talents or skills you haven’t fully developed.
Venus will retrograde in your 2nd House the day after this Full Moon. So although Mercury will have your mind here and can see you gaining traction, Venus will keep you in a space of reflection. You could be dealing with questions around security, worth, scarcity and value. Maybe you aren’t given yourself enough credit? Maybe you aren’t asking for your true worth? Maybe this is time to work on self-confidence? Whatever it is, Venus will make sure the issues are addressed over the next 6 weeks. You could see fluctuations in your financial situation. This is temporary.
Use this Full Moon to focus on the others in your life. Figure out the dynamic and how you show up to your relationships — and how the other people show up for you, too. This is all about the two way street. You could have to make decisions or find a conclusion. Create boundaries where necessary and allow for the right relationships to flourish for you. You are on the brink of so much change.

Knowing your limits can be important. Over the last few weeks and even 18 months, you have been tasked with closing doors, learning to be better to your body, and focusing on the things in your immediate environment. The eclipses in Gemini/Sagittarius have taught you the value of your needs and knowing the difference between service/sacrifice. We can’t save everyone, or really anyone, other than ourselves.
The Full Moon will be bright in your 6th House, where your health, daily routines and even work will come into play. You are being faced with ways to reschedule your life and create better rituals and regimens. If you have been dealing with health issues, this is not a time to sweep that under the rug. You will have to face the facts and get the answers you need. Some of you could be trying to get healthier or just find the balance between work and life. You will be busier than normal around this eclipse, so care for yourself. If people try to overstep your boundaries, you have the power to let them know. Your workplace will likely be going through changes — try not to internalize them or bite off more than you can chew around it. If you work for yourself, consider how much you can realistically take on right now.
Luckily, Jupiter is very helpful at this lunation. It sits in your 2nd House where it will trine the Moon in your 6th. There seems to be a gifted monetary sum that may come up or a new source of income that opens up for you. You could receive a raise or a promotion, as well! Even if your financial situation has been a bit all over the place, Jupiter has been teaching you the value of security and how it can be created no matter your situation. However, I do really feel that if you receive anything financial around this Full Moon it will be tied to your work directly — since the Moon is in your 6th House.
Mercury leads this Full Moon in your sign. It sits in your first House, where you are asked to really think about your autonomy and identity. It seems that you are not vocalizing your needs as much as you could be. Mercury’s position in your 1st House gives you clarity on your direction and ideas about what motivates you. Sort of like a-ha moments. This is emphasized by the trine that it makes to Uranus in your 5th House. There is something to be said about allowing yourself more freedom to enjoy life in the moment. Uranus is teaching you the power of joy. Lean into it.
Venus will retrograde the day after this Full Moon. It will be doing so in your sign and in your 1st house. You will be combing through and reflecting on who you are and what you stand for. It seems that Venus wants you to reckon with the narratives you have once written and change how you see yourself completely. It is time to be kinder to yourself — softer with your needs. You have to nurture your potential and not remain stagnant. Venus wants you to keep your heart close and allow that to be what guides and drives you forward. Sometimes, we have to feel our way through things. Old issues from the past will arise over the next 6 weeks — especially ones related to money and relationships. These can not be ignored.
Use this Full Moon to focus on your health and body. Take control of the details and mind the little things. Create better boundaries with work and cultivate a work/life balance. Seek a job change or shift in responsibilities if you are not happy with what you are doing. Find new clients if you work for yourself and implement a better way to be of service to your needs first.

We know that change is inevitable. It comes with sweeping gestures that push us in one direction or another. To see the power in change as a potential new beginning shifts our mindset. For you, this is about the shifts in your own perception of your happiness and reinstating more confidence into your life. You need to see how truly valuable you are. You create all you desire.
We see the Full Moon shine a light on your 5th House, a place of creativity, conception, expression, love, and children. This is an area of joy and pleasure. So, what makes you happy? You could be reflecting on how to bring more fun into your life and opening yourself up to new adventures. You feel ready now. However, this means repairing the relationship you have with your self image. Why shy away from the spotlight? You deserve space as much as anyone else. To allow yourself to be seen, is to be proud of who you are. Don’t hide for the sake of someone else’s perceptions. If you are looking to conceive an idea, a project, a child, or a relationship, let this Full Moon help you. It takes a level of risk to make it happen, but what do you have to lose? You are becoming more aware of your ability to manifest your desires into reality.
Jupiter works with this Full Moon so brilliantly! It sits in your sign and seeks ways to show you how your personal joy can expand your sense of self and self-awareness. Jupiter has been teaching you the importance of allowing yourself to take up space and gifting you chances to put your motivations first. You have to take a risk on you knowing that it can work out in ways you could have never imagined. Before Jupiter moves out of your sign, it will bring you one last gift. This cane come in any form, but mostly we will see this occur in something close to your heart. Jupiter wants to see your flourish.
Mercury leads this Full Moon from your 12th House. This has your mind on things that may need to come to an end or seeking resolution. You may be seeing that doors are closing but new ones are beginning to open. Uranus trines Mercury from your 4th House. Family related or home related matters can pop up but also be positively exciting. There are changing dynamics in your domestic sphere, and although that comes with its own complications, it sets the stage for you to take more ownership of your life. Uranus brings a sense of celebration right now — and part of this could be centered on those you love and trust most. You have to free yourself from the past and let go of the negative memories that limit you in your scope of growth.
Venus will retrograde in your 12th house the day after this Full Moon. This will have you doing a lot of personal reflection. You will be more introspective than normal. You could be trying to find the value in the present moment and even in some of the chapters that are closing in your life. Venus is bringing an awareness to your own spiritual and intuitive self, as well. You may not be valuing the faith you can have. Venus wants you to confront the trust issues, especially the ones you have with yourself. You are in a space of rest as you prepare for a new cycle in the coming months. Try not to push yourself too hard. Forgiveness and grace as necessary.
Use this Full Moon to play, create and get in touch with your inner child. Repair the relationship with your self-image and feel more confident in how you express yourself. Open your heart up and show people what you are made of. Take new risks and really put yourself out there. This is a time to be seen and take up room like you never have before. You are worthy of this.

Keyword: Solace
If you have been feeling a little withdrawn lately, that is ok. Go with it. It seems that there has been so much emphasis on your work, career, and life direction—that it may be time to come home and tend to yourself in some way. Rest is imperative. It is necessary. Have you been allowing yourself to slow down? This Full Moon will bring a period for you to refocus your energy.
Your 4th House is being lit up at this eclipse, where you see changes in your family and home. There can be dynamics that alter. You could be confronted to deal with your past and find peace with your memories — even if they were hard. The 4th House is about emotional foundations, and it is from here that everything is built. Stabilizing this part of your life allows for the security you seek. Some of you may bring in new members of the family, change your living space or even update your decor. You are being asked to take control of this private part of your life. Home is where the heart is, and you have to ensure that your heart is safe and protected.
Jupiter, your traditional ruler, trines the Moon from your 12th House. Part of this idea of foundation and solace comes from growth that is happening behind closed doors. You may not even be fully aware of how much you have evolved in the last year. There has been major shifts to your internal world — emotionally and spiritually. The area that brings you the most growth and opportunity comes through your own rest and rehabilitation. You are closing a chapter on a major cycle for yourself. Once Jupiter enters your sign at the end of the month, you will see so many things change for you in 2022 like you have not seen in 12 years.
Mercury leads this lunation from your 11th House, showing you that friends and community have your back. Reach out for support and ask for help where it is warranted. Uranus from your 3rd House supports this energy and tells you that you need to speak up in order to receive the support you seek. You could be positively surprised by the reactions you get when you actually open up to a friend or ask for that help. Don’t feel you need to hold the weight or buckle under the pressure. There are others that can lift you up. Strength in numbers. Uranus seeks to free you from the self-imposed limitations that keep you sacrificing yourself time and time again.
Venus will retrograde in your 11th House the day after this Full Moon. Here, you will be tasked with seeing friendships and networks differently. But this is also the space of your dreams, so you may have to be more critical of your future goals, as well. This is time of reevaluation. Maybe old dreams must come to an end, but that doesn’t mean that the idea has to die. You are asked to see things differently and learn that you are not alone. You may see some friendships change, but new ones will be on the horizon. Understanding your boundaries and space with those you are close to you or associate with can be pivotal for you now. The next 6 weeks could see old friends come back around. Reconnect. It could be very healing for you.
Use this Full Moon to bring it all back home. Spend time with your family. Redecorate or reorganize your home. Prepare yourself for a move or a change in the home/family front. Focus on your emotional well-being and tend to places where you feel more vulnerable. Create stability in the quiet and make time for personal reflection. You redefine your peace and carve out space for you to process how you feel. Your foundations are changing.

Sagittarius New Moon Eclipse Miniscopes
Sagittarius New Moon
Eclipse Miniscopes
Inspiring Momentum.
The New Moon Eclipse in Sagittarius falls at 12º on December 4th at 2:43 AM EST. A chapter comes to a close, and yet the story is still being written. This New Moon is the final eclipse in the Gemini/Sagittarius series. It finishes the 18-month cycle that started around June 5th of 2020. It signals the dichotomy of truth and perception. Perhaps what we had once seen to be true is no more, and now new perspectives are being revealed to us. Eclipses follow a 6-month pattern, where they set the tone for what’s to come and what’s to end. Since this is the grand finale of this series, we can expect major resolutions over the next few months to occur. They will be related to areas of growth and seeking new adventures in your life. If you have felt stagnant, know that this eclipse will sweep you off your feet!
Eclipses are not a time for manifestation or magick. Instead, they’re a time of reflection and witnessing. They require us to be present so we can act in the moment. This is important, as Sagittarius always keeps the future in mind. However, what are you doing today that impacts the big picture tomorrow? The Sun and Moon work with Saturn and sit with Mercury to help us plan and be more strategic. With the stellium in Sagittarius, this is a call for trust and faith in the process — very much like the Wheel of Fortune. We can’t control outcomes, only our actions.
So, what actions are you taking to lead to potentially better outcomes? Mercury has a hard time in Sagittarius, so we may not be certain of the how or why — just full of the knowing of what is. It is best to follow your intuition now, and use that as a grounding principle and guiding light. It lights the way like a flaming arrow shot from your heart and toward your dreams. A trail is left behind for you to follow.
Of course, there will be a swell of energy, as all eclipses bring this. However, this is lighter and less heavy than the eclipse from mid November. It falls in a Fire sign, where we reignite flames that had previously been put out. That flame is used to inspire us and push us toward a new adventure. Remember, life is not always a fairy tale — adventure and experience bring you toward your “happily ever after.” Experience brings wisdom, especially as Jupiter leads this lunation and squares off with Mars. It is here we must understand our limits and direct our motivations intentionally. We could expand too far into something that depletes us, and not enough in what nourishes us. Mars is guided by passionate Scorpio, where Jupiter seeks to expand in airy Aquarius. Allow your heart and mind to align, and the rest will unfold.
Luckily, Mars will have outlets at this New Moon, with positive aspects to Neptune and Pluto. A little faith goes a long way. Of course, it will also reach out to its lover in the sky, Venus where they kiss one another under the dark moon. Venus and Pluto embrace, as if to say that in the darkness, the light is found. Mars and Neptune arrive to carry that message with love and compassion, a nourishing exchange that leaves us feeling more empowered than ever.
All of this comes together to remind you that — you are the hero of this story. You blaze the trail toward your future. You strike the match and light the way, guided by the stars in your eyes and overhead. As the narrative continues to unfold, you can feel more confident in your place in this world. Relish in the new opportunities that present themselves around you. You didn’t need to be saved. You are your own knight in shining armor.
If you have any personal planets in your chart at 8º to 16º, you will feel the effects of this New Moon the most. Especially those with strong Mutable placements. So, let’s break this down by sign!

So we reach a new beginning and an end, all at the same time. After 18 months of the Gemini/Sagittarius eclipse series, it comes to a close. This eclipse is a New Moon, one that opens doors of opportunity and creates possibility — a portal into something new. Eclipses hold compounding energy, where we find ourselves at a crossroads with multiple avenues to explore. For you, in particular, you will see that obstacles that were once present begin to dissipate. Perhaps this is a change of perspective or maybe roads starting to open for you.
The eclipse will fall in your 9th House, a place of exploration, excitement, and expansion. Here, you will see that your world is shifting due to the openness of this Sagittarius energy. There is a call to reach beyond the horizon and witness something fresh! You could be itching for a change, looking to travel, or even earning a certificate or pursuing additional education. The 9th House is about limitless potential. In this realm you realize the world truly is your oyster, and you can make what you want out of it. You will likely see your goals more clearly than you have in a long time and thus change your priorities in achieving them. Nothing is too far out of reach. All it takes is a little faith.
Even in the wake of all of this need for growth, you may find yourself focused on work or your direction in life. Venus has been sitting in your 10th House for a month and will be here for an extended stay. At this lunation, it will connect with Pluto and touch on Mars and Neptune — creating beautiful aspects. It seems that things are starting to come together for you. If you have been working toward changes in your career, or on something important at work, expect to see momentum. You could be given a big project, have an interview, or even receive a promotion of some kind. Some of you may decide to use that idea of faith from the 9th House and go out on your own. Whatever it is, the pinnacle in your chart is being lit up. Get out and go somewhere. You will be noticed — especially by people in power with Pluto being so close to Venus.
On top of all of this, Saturn is working well with the Sun, Moon, and Mercury (from a wide angle). Saturn is stabilizing, helping to secure your goals and dreams into something more concrete. Saturn has been touring your 11th House for a while, and here you are reminded that you are not alone in the actualization of your dreams. Part of making it all come to fruition is understanding that you may need some help. Open yourself up to others and watch the support pour in. This eclipse holds so much for you that the outcomes feel somewhat infinite.
Use this eclipse to explore new places — physically, mentally, emotional, and spiritually. Challenge your perspective, open your mind, and reach beyond current limitations. Seek help in order to achieve your goals and put yourself out there to gain notoriety. There is so much happening around you. If you feel confused, take a step back and pull yourself out of the details. See the big picture and soon you will know which path to take.

Keyword: Transformation
We may have started an eclipse series in your sign, but we are also finishing one that has impacted your finances over the last 18 months. You have been taught lessons but also gifted opportunities around value, worth and shared resources. As we end this cycle, you will see that things begin to get sewn up. You will find resolution but also new pathways that you had not expected to open up.
The eclipse is a New Moon in your 8th House, opening doors for resources that have been untapped or previously hidden. This could be emotional or material. Some of you may find out about an unexpected gain, whether through you or a partner, perhaps an inheritance or some sort of windfall. Alternatively, you may find that you are working toward paying off debts and feeling more secure–– that you don’t owe anything to anyone. This could also apply to how you feel about emotional debts, almost cleaning your hands of old situations or people that no longer serve you. This eclipse may also bring about a transformation. One that has been a long time coming. In some ways, it will feel like a re-emergence — a butterfly coming out of its cocoon after a long period of reflection, healing, and dealing with shadows that have sat beneath the surface. Becoming more intimate and preserving your inner peace will be of the utmost importance.
Venus, your ruler, works really well with a plethora of planets at this lunation. It is currently sitting in your 9th House, getting cozy with Pluto. Things that once felt hard seem to become more manageable. Part of this is the sharing of your experiences with others and opening your mind to new ideas. Venus has you finding comfort in seeking out new opportunities, and wants you to bring a little adventure into your life. It reaches out to Mars and Neptune, creating a harmonious effect. A lot is coming together for you — strengthening relations with a partner or important person, seeing bits of your future more clearly, and a lot of personal growth. Your relationships and friendships are a security factor for you in a way that you had not experienced in a long time. It just feels like there is so much to celebrate at this lunation.
Saturn is also very helpful as it sits in your 10th House. Over the last year, it has been making you work hard in your career or grounding yourself in what is important to you. Now, it receives a positive beam from the Sun, Moon, and Mercury. You may get the recognition you are looking for at work — perhaps even a bonus or be asked to head up a group project. There is a call for you to become more visible or take on a stronger role in your career. If you work for yourself, consider that you may receive funding or a project that will be very impactful for you.
Use this eclipse to reflect on your growth and how you have transformed in the last year. Seek new resources. Get intimate with a partner or close relationship — even yourself. Focus on the power you hold personally, finding new ways of sharing who you are. Explore your depths, take hold of your fears, and no longer be held back by cyclic patterns that keep you trapped. This is about seeing new pathways that had once been hidden from view. You hold the keys.

You have been one of the two stars of the last 18 months. The eclipse series has been sitting in your sign and your polarity, creating waves and pathways that were not present to you before. You have seen your life change in ways you had never expected. Some of you had taken on more autonomy and independence and/or changed how you engage in your relationships. Others have seen growth opportunities and significant relationships strengthen. Whatever it has been, there has been a flowing exchange of energy that has lead to massive personal growth.
Now, we end this series on a New Moon in your 7th House. One last time we will have an eclipse in an area that rules partnerships. You will likely see dynamics shift between you and someone you are close with. Some of you may dissolve broken or irreparable relationships, others will get closer — forming impenetrable bonds. You are seeing the value in the give and take and understanding your boundaries in a new way. If you are seeking out a new relationship, it is likely you will find it. Alternatively, the relationship you’re working on could be one with yourself. Sometimes we think that we need to be “whole” through others and forget that we are whole on our own. So, consider this eclipse an exploration of what you need, deserve, and desire.
Venus sits in a powerful position at this eclipse, getting caught up in several harmonious aspects. It conjuncts Pluto in your 8th House, reaches out to Neptune and Mars, both in work houses for you. It seems that you are busy right now with Mars going through your 6th House, but Venus makes sure it doesn’t come without reward. Your creativity and breadth of vision are remarkable right now, and it seems that you are finding new ways of managing old stress. In this hidden sector, Venus and Pluto both bring a great sense of peace to old wounds or patterns that were once burdens. It seems that you are feeling ready to let go a little and no longer carry so much weight. You can make incredible headway in the areas of healing, resources and personal intimacy.
Saturn works well with this eclipse from your 9th House. It grounds you through experience and by reaching for new heights. It seems the limitations to your growth disappear a bit at this New Moon. Freedom seems to be a reward in a way. Maybe part of that freedom is the structure with which you are building a new part of your life. You may decide to travel, go to school, or just get out and explore. Saturn reminds you that even through all of your hard work, there is something to look forward to. If you are caught up in anything legal, you could receive news around this eclipse — or a month to the day after this eclipse.
Use this eclipse to focus on your boundaries. Understand the roles that you play in other’s lives and what they play in yours. See where you can receive and know what you have to give. Form new relationships and bury old ones that don’t support you. Seek out ways to create a better relationship with yourself above all else. Nothing will ever be as solid as the love you can give to yourself.

Knowing your limits can be important. Over the last 18 months, you have been tasked with closing doors, learning to be better to your body, and focusing on the things in your immediate present. The eclipses in Gemini/Sagittarius have taught you the value of your needs and knowing the difference between service/sacrifice. We can’t save everyone, or really anyone, other than ourselves.
This eclipse falls in your 6th House. Here, you are told to prioritize yourself more. Your health, work, daily life, and routines all fall in this area of your chart. You may have seen major changes in this more mundane setting, yet you may not have realized how impactful the small shifts have been. This eclipse opens a door of opportunity for you (or even several), where you can take more risks with work, find better solutions for your health, and take control of your life again. Consider this a chance to organize the chaos. You are settling into new routines, so be mindful of what you begin. You can kick old habits and start new exercise regimens. The call is to bring your physical self to the forefront. Alternatively, some of you may see the eclipse manifest through your work environment with co-workers, your job tasks, or even the job itself. If your job is eclipsed out, then know that something similar is coming along. If not, then perhaps there are ways to update your work/life balance.
Venus is sort of the star of this eclipse, even though it does not lead it. It has so many aspects that it creates this feeling of harmony. It has been sitting in your 7th House, where it will align with Pluto and touch on Neptune and Mars. It seems that a partnership is getting deeper. One where you know exactly what you want. If you are attached, this could add more passion and pleasure in the relationship. If you are single, this could be the beginning of a relationship. Whatever it is, Venus is making it easier to relate to and deal with others. This is welcomed after years of having obstacles in this area of your chart. Pluto may be slowly transforming this part of your life, but Venus is here to help you find comfort and peace along the way. If a relationship needs to end, you may find budding opportunities on the horizon (especially with Mars touring your 5th House).
Saturn is setting a foundation at this New Moon, working with the Sun, Moon and Mercury. It brings security to your daily life through the personal healing and inner work you have done. After a year of walking through the shadows, you can start to see how the process has helped your life overall. If you have been dealing with a health issue or recovering from something, then know that Saturn will help. If you are just looking to make a plan and stick with it, Saturn will show up for you, too. There is no task too big or small for this sextile.
Use this eclipse to bring it all together. See how the small things in your life impact everything else. Pay attention to your body and work on making amends with how you may have abused it in the past. Work on getting healthier — physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. Look for opportunities of growth in your work, daily life, and routines. Be flexible. See that perfection is not the goal — the process teaches us more than the outcome. Work on taking care of yourself.

We are now on the precipice of changing tides. After 18 months of the Gemini/Sagittarius eclipse series, we can start to put this to rest. Of course, it closes on a New Moon — so pathways will begin to open for you. This is interesting as the eclipse will fall in a House that is native to you: the 5th House. You have learned the value of personal joy and collective happiness. Now, you can walk forward in a more focused manner.
The New Moon will highlight the area of your chart that rules play, joy, happiness, pleasure, love, and creation. This is about leading with your heart, listening to that inner child and making time for more fun in your life. This is very welcomed as Saturn has been sitting opposite your Sun, Moon or Rising for quite some time. This eclipse reminds us that life is something to experience. You can manifest your heart’s desires into reality, simply by taking risks on yourself more. What makes you happy? What do you love? This is a time to explore new ways to play and seek out pleasure. Let loose. Because this is a place of creation, some of you may be creating something new entirely: a project, art, music, relationship, or even the conception of a child. Alternatively, consider this eclipse a chance for you to sit in the spotlight a bit. It is ok to be recognized for your efforts and to celebrate your successes.
Venus will be in a powerful position at this lunation — working with Pluto closely and touching on Neptune and Mars. Venus is sitting in your 6th House, where you could be receiving some accolades at work or even just trying to get healthier. Routine seems important, but make sure you are bringing some fun into those routines. Venus will bring in an opportunity for money through a work project, client, new job–– or something of the like. Watch what unfolds over the next 6 months, as the new series of eclipses we started last month impacted your career and life direction. So much is about to unfold for you. Mars may have your mind on your home or family — perhaps even doing renovations or looking to move. You may find it easier to move come May of 2022, but it doesn’t mean you won’t have chances before then.
Saturn is also helpful at this eclipse, where it will sextile the Sun, Moon and Mercury. Saturn has been draining you a bit, sitting opposite your sign. Now, it gets a boost from this lunation, so it seems that you could be solidifying an important relationship — whether that be in business, romance or even just a platonic relationship. Whatever it is, it has long-term potential and influence. If you find yourself signing something, the contract will feel very binding. So make sure you read the fine print. This is sort of a reward after all of the hard work you have put in the last year.
Use this New Moon to find new ways to have fun. Follow your heart more and listen to your inner child. Seek new ways to engage in pleasure and creativity. Let loose. If you are looking to conceive (a child, a project or anything), let this eclipse be the thing that pushes you to start or get more focused about it. Anything that pulls at your heart will be favored. So really get in touch with what you desire most.

The last 18 months have seen major changes to your internal and external worlds. With the eclipse series falling in fellow mutable signs (Gemini and Sagittarius), it has been impacting your 4th and 10th Houses. After what feels like a cycle of constant evolution and change, you can now begin to see the light at the end of the tunnel. This series comes to an end but starts a new phase in your 4th House.
The 4th House rules family, home, roots, and your emotional foundations. Here, the eclipse will turn your attention to these areas. Perhaps you are looking to do some work around the house — renovations or redecorating. Maybe you are just on a house hunt overall, looking for new places to call home. Some of you may be finding more quiet time or family time, while seeking solitude after a busy few months. Whatever it is, you are bringing it all back to your center. Home is where the heart is. Family could take a central focus as there may be changing dynamics in this area of your life. Since June 2020, you have been redefining what family truly is or means to you. You have been putting down stronger roots and really focusing on your emotional well-being. This eclipse tells you that all of that work isn’t for nothing. You can rejoice in the power you have called back and honor the peace you have created.
Venus is sitting in a beautiful spot at this lunation, working with Pluto, Neptune and Mars. Even in the need for solitude, you seem to be very popular! People are reaching out to say hello, invite you to things and your social life seems to be ramping up. Remember that you don’t have to commit to every obligation. It is ok to slow down a bit. Venus and Pluto sitting in your 5th House could put your creativity in overdrive! You are inspired, fueled, and ready to do something new! Part of this is the exploration of your own happiness. Venus wants you to find comfort in sitting in your joy and soaking up some of the spotlight. This isn’t always so familiar to you, but you deserve to be noticed and applauded. So if you are asked to step up or show yourself more, take it on and take a bow.
Saturn is helpful to this eclipse, sitting in your 6th House. Work has been demanding over the last year — especially if you work for yourself. It seems that there has been a lot of energy going into making something successful and now you are starting to see it pay off. It has been gradual, but now that you can sit back a bit and reflect–– you see how much you have grown. Saturn is rewarding you, reminding you that all of your efforts are not in vain. We can’t ignore that the eclipse series has also had you taking more risks in your career overall. Now relish in the evolution of your life. The impacts, no matter how small, are seemingly great.
Use this eclipse to settle in and come back to center. Focus on your roots and your family. Find security in your emotional foundations and create a sanctuary for yourself. Find peace in the quiet. Work on things around the house and spruce up your space. If you want to move, this eclipse could give you the boost you need to find the right place! It is all coming together now.

After 18 months of the Gemini/Sagittarius eclipse series, it comes to a close. This eclipse is a New Moon, one that creates possibility — a doorway into something new. Eclipses hold compounding energy, where we find ourselves at a crossroads with multiple avenues to go down. For you, you may find yourself faced with needing to use your voice more — perhaps being flexible in ways that you had not been before.
The eclipse falls in your 3rd House where you are tasked to learn, adapt, and integrate. This is about how you communicate, not only what you are saying–– but also what you are hearing. Part of shifting your perspective comes through dialogue and the conversations that you have with others. Your voice is your power. Now, it is time to learn how to use it. Through the 3rd House, we learn to express ourselves and say what is on our minds. Sharing is an integral part of your personal exploration–– and how you choose to share is important. There can be a feeling of people inundating you with messages around the eclipse. Perhaps you may hear news that you have been waiting for! You can start a new journey for yourself in applying the skills you have in new ways. Your local Community will figure strongly, especially those close to you. They are here to uplift you and support you, but they won’t know what you need unless you tell them. Asking for help isn’t weak, especially if it is meant to help you grow.
Venus, your ruler, is very active at this eclipse. It will lean into Pluto in your 4th House and reach out to Neptune and Mars. It seems that there are major changes happening on the home front. Things that felt slow to happen are now racing faster than before. Venus is ensuring that you find peace in the transitions. Mars sitting in your 2nd House may suggest money coming in, but also watch your expenditures. Venus/Pluto in your 4th House could make it a good time to do some redecorating or home-shopping — maybe even some renovations. However, try to solidify the plan before December 19th. Venus will retrograde in this area of your chart. If you don’t have a solid plan, then wait until the end of January to take any action. You may need to reflect more on your next moves. Venus could have you second guess your choices or purchases.
Saturn will be in a nice angle to this lunation. It will sextile the Sun, Moon, and Mercury. It will add a stable security from the 5th House, inspiring you to seek more ways to engage in pleasure. You’re allowed to have some fun — it is the holiday season! If you have been trying to have a child, this could be a good opportunity for you, especially as Jupiter is still traveling the same House. Alternatively, you could just be looking for more experiences and adventures in your life. Maybe a creative project has officially come to a head, so now you will get some sort of reward after a year long effort. Indulge in the outcome and allow yourself to celebrate your successes.
Use this eclipse to speak your magick into the world. Communication is key, and your words hold more power than they have in a long time. Don’t be afraid to tell others what you are thinking, but also be open to what they have to say. Create important dialogue and have those tough conversations. Be flexible and adapt to the ever-changing tides in life. You are being asked to integrate your experiences and open yourself up to new possibilities.

We’ve recently begun an eclipse series in your sign, but we are also finishing one that has impacted your resources over the last 18 months. You have been taught lessons but also gifted opportunities around value, worth, and even financial understanding. As we end this cycle, you will see things begin to get sewn up. You will find what you once had valued may change. Some of you could have seen shifts in how you earn material success.
The eclipse will start a new pathway in your 2nd House. This is an area of ownership, personal possession, material resources, self-worth, and valuation. You are starting to see that there can be new paths toward great personal security. Perhaps you are asked to stand up for what you believe in or re-evaluate some morals. This informs who you are by telling people what you stand for. You may, alternatively, have a chance to change your financial picture — maybe take on a new role, receive a raise, start a side job, or even a new job entirely. This would be an ideal time to go through what you have and start clearing things out. Sometimes we have to make room for what is to come. Take ownership of who you are and what you have. Find value in your being. This New Moon wants to see you feel sturdy, empowered, and self-reliant.
Venus will be busy at this eclipse, working with your modern ruler, Pluto. Both will be sitting in your 3rd House, helping you find the words you need to express yourself better. There is something to be said about unearthing and dissecting conversations with others if it’s for healthy reasons — getting to the core meaning of what is truly being said or felt. Venus can make it easy to have tough conversations. It will reach out to Neptune and Mars, signaling the support you have is abundant. Mars is giving you the extra boost you need for confidence, while Neptune reminds you ––you the creator of your own outcomes. If something needs to be said, don’t be shy. Speak with conviction and stand your ground. At some point, something will give. The truth will set you free.
Saturn will be helpful at this eclipse, too. Sitting in your 4th House, you can find security in the people you call your family. Saturn reminds you of the stability you have in your home and the relationships that may be strained can be strengthened. After a year of ups and downs around family, there is reward to be had. It may not be in the way you anticipate, but it is pivotal. Sometimes, this can look like stronger boundaries instead of repairing broken ties. Your emotional foundations are more unshakable than they ever have been before.
Use this eclipse to focus on the ground you stand on. What do you value? When was the last time you showed yourself respect? Seek out ways to show yourself that you can rely on you. Build a greater space for personal security and understand the value in owning every aspect of your own humanity. Find new resources and open up doors of working through financial stress and abundance. There’s no scarcity in the world you have created for yourself now.
SAGITTARIUS TO PISCES
Sagittarius & Sagittarius Rising
Keyword: Possibility
You have been in the limelight in the last 18 months. You have seen your life change in ways you had never expected. The eclipse series has been sitting in your sign and your polarity. Some of you have taken on more autonomy and independence and/or changed how you engage in your relationships. Others have seen growth opportunities and significant relationships strengthen. Whatever it has been, there has been a flowing exchange of energy that has led to massive personal growth. You have been finding your own way.
This eclipse can leave you feeling like change is in the air, and that could not be more true. Reflect on where you were even 18 months ago. You are not the same person or in the same place that you were. Consider this a journey of self-discovery, where it ends with the doors wide open. This eclipse falls in your 1st House, where you call the shots. This is a focus on your motivations, desires, and directions. In this, you are told to see yourself differently. Perhaps even more clearly than you ever have before — a full embodiment of self. The 1st House brings you to a place of autonomy and giving yourself space to expand and be. This means being ok with taking up more space. The path toward personal development doesn’t have to be lonely, no. But it does have to be about your commitments to yourself.
Venus is important at this eclipse as it hugs Pluto and touches on Mars and Neptune. This brings more clarity to your resources and your values. Venus really gives you opportunities to bring in more income or material goods. You could see an increase in what you make or even a focus on working with what you have. Now will be a good time to work out financial contracts and accept financial agreements, especially as Venus will retrograde in a few weeks (which is a less ideal time for both of these things). You may find yourself pausing for reflection as you reconcile what you value–– and where you find your worth. These things will change, morph, and evolve. So even where you stand now will not be where you will stand by the end of the Venus retrograde. Even if financial matters seem uncertain now, find comfort in what you can control in the present. Create different outcomes or outlets. Seek out other avenues to support yourself. You are stronger than you ever possibly have been before.
Saturn is very helpful at this lunation. It reaches out to the Sun, Moon and Mercury. Here, it is a call for structure. Structure is found through voice, conversation, communication. You could sign a long-term contract around this eclipse or start an important project. Some of you may be having pivotal conversations or will be asked to be more flexible. Saturn has been sitting in this area of your chart for a year so far. Now, you can start to see some reward. This can come in many ways, but know that no reward will be received without asking for it. So, if you are feeling stuck, ask for help. It will be granted to you. Saturn is teaching you how dialogue can make all the difference.
Use this lunation to focus on yourself. Work on discovering new pieces of your identity and releasing parts of you that no longer serve you. Be fueled by your desires and passions, run with your ideas. Motivation is key. You are able to make anything you want come to fruition, especially as the doors swing open just for you. Stand in your power. Embrace the spotlight. Own every facet of your being.

Keyword: Solitude
When one door closes, another one opens. The last 18 months have seen you release a lot of baggage. You have started important new cycles but brought major closures, as well. It seems that part of this has been teaching you to have a bit more faith — whether it be in yourself or something greater than you. As we bring this eclipse series to a close, you have one more thing that needs to be sewn up.
The eclipse falls in your 12th House, this is a space of quiet, solitude, and endings. The 12th House holds a vast landscape, where we blur the lines between what is real and what is possible. Our dreams become more vivid, even tangible. You are reminded that seeing isn’t always believing — belief comes from within with a different sort of vision. Your intuition will be heightened now. You are asked to listen to it. When you strip away all of the noise, what do you hear? What do you see? The 12th House is full of karmic lessons that bring us to a place of peace. Some of you may have to find closure with a piece of your life — an ending that leads to a new beginning. You could be working behind the scenes or simply just resting. Whatever it is, you are not completely ready to step out into the spotlight. That is ok. Take your time. Give yourself more grace — maybe even some forgiveness.
Venus will be creating excellent aspects at this lunation from your 1st House. Even if you aren’t interested in being noticed, you seem to still capture people’s attention. Venus is aligning with Pluto, asking you to be softer with yourself — more patience and more loving. You could update your appearance or just simply indulge in some better self-care. It reaches out to Mars in your 11th and Neptune in your 3rd House. You will likely receive some sort of social invitation that has your closest friends there. Take the time to enjoy being with them. If you are feeling sort of isolated, then you extend the invitation. Your friends are willing to show up for you now in a big way. Community is at the heart of reminding you how important you are.
Saturn, your ruler, is also very friendly at this eclipse. It will sextile the Sun, Moon and Mercury. From this position, it is granting you more security. It is helping you see the value in who you are, what you own, and your personal talents. There can be a call to you finding more comfort in your material picture. You could be finishing up a project that may bring in additional sources of income for you, too. Saturn has been teaching you lessons around money and self-worth in the last year. Now, it is time for a bit of a reward. If you have been learning from the obstacles that Saturn may have set forth, then you will be given something in return — maybe even in the form of a financial gift. Another way to use this energy is to take some of what you have now and invest it differently — consider making your money work for you in a new way. Saturn is looking for long-term gain.
Use this eclipse to withdraw a bit where you can. Find more peace in everyday life — including work/life balance. Take time to rest and recharge. Tie up loose ends and close doors that need to be shut. Re-engage with yourself, replenish your energy and enjoy the downtime (by creating it). Listen to your intuition more and record your dreams. This is an opportunity for you to truly let go and open yourself up to something greater.

We are now on the precipice of changing winds. After 18 months of the Gemini/Sagittarius eclipse series, we can start to put this to rest. Of course, it closes on a New Moon — so pathways will begin to open for you. This is interesting as the eclipse will fall in a House native to you: the 11th House. You have learned the value of sharing and creating. Now, you can walk forward in a more focused manner.
This eclipse begins something new in the terms of community and support. Friends, allies, and network connections all live in this space. You could start seeking out new bonds, discovering a new community built on your own personal shared interests. Maybe you decide to lean into the friendships you have — understanding that there is strength in numbers. However, the 11th House goes beyond just friendships. This is also about the future. Your hopes, dreams, and wishes live in this area. You may want to start looking at your trajectory and the future goals you have. Do they need to be achieved alone? No. You have the resources, connections and people who can and will help you. This requires you to let go a bit and receive that help. If you have been trying to start something for yourself, then call on your community. You need that reinforcement to get things going. Don’t try to power through on your own and carry unnecessary burdens.
Venus will be busy at this eclipse, working with Pluto and kissing both Mars and Neptune. Venus and Pluto will be quietly transforming your hidden realms. Here, you are tasked with letting go. But, of what? Venus puts the emphasis on old and outdated ideas around self-worth. The stories you have told yourself are old…it is time to change the narrative. Pluto will ensure that you undergo a metamorphosis in the process. Mars is in your 10th House, motivating you in your life direction, career and public image. Now is the time to engage in this confidence and put yourself out there. You could attract the right type of attention — especially as it speaks to Neptune in your 2nd House. The bold moves put you in a place of receiving new resources — or better managing the ones you have. The financial stress you may have been under will likely change — but during the Venus retrograde coming in a few weeks, you still have some work to do to reconcile. Old financial matters will need to be addressed — especially if you have put them on the back burner.
Saturn, your traditional ruler, is working harmoniously with this lunation, as well. It has been sitting in your 1st House, restructuring your identity and motivations for the last year. Now, with all of your hard work, you can start to see the light at the end of the tunnel. It hasn’t been an easy road, but you haven’t been alone on the journey either. The eclipse suggests that you have had support the whole way through. Now you are coming out of this period stronger than you have been. You are more resilient. You know what you want. So, this is your chance to take steps toward that. You deserve to put yourself first. You deserve to go after your heart’s desires. You are not wrong for wanting to be witnessed, seen, and appreciated. Let Jupiter continue to expand this area of your chart before it leaves at the end of the month. You have room to grow.
Use this eclipse to call on your community. Ask for support where it is necessary and seek out new methods of networking. Focus on your friendships and nurture the ones that prove to strengthen you. Look at your goals, your future, your hopes. What do you want out of the next five years? Three years? Who can help you get there? How can you make this happen? These are questions to reflect on — just remember to not let your dreams die. Keep the faith alive.

The pinnacle. The height. This is the top of the mountain in some ways. It seems that all eyes are on you or that you are getting more recognition than you have in the last few months. We are completing a cycle that has had your 10th and 4th Houses lit up by the eclipses. We end this series with this New Moon, bringing with it change to your career, life direction, and publicity. Expect to see shifts in the coming months.
This eclipse falls in your 10th House. Here we see the power we hold and the way we engage with the world at large. This is often referred to as the House of your career or vocation. So, doorways will be opening in this area of your life. If you have been wanting to make a shift in your work or life direction, this will be a great place to begin. Of course, you have been working on this since June of last year. The eclipses have been pushing you to show up for yourself more and put your talents out there. You have been noticed, and more often than not–– well-received. Some of you may receive a promotion, change careers, work for yourself, or leave a job altogether between now and April. Consider this a pinnacle of sorts, where you can be rewarded for all that you have done. You have the chance to gain a lot of notoriety now. Don’t be afraid. Step into this power. Be witnessed.
Venus is very helpful at this lunation, working with Pluto in your 11th House and touching on Mars and Neptune, your modern ruler. Friendships have been extremely important to you, and it seems they are pushing you to really take hold of your success. Even in the face of not knowing the outcome, they remind you that sometimes you just need to have more faith in yourself. Mars is giving you the confidence to take more risks and know that life is an adventure. Lean into the possibility. Leap into new ventures. Neptune in your sign is supported by these energies. Your creativity is high, and your intuition is even higher. Remember that the central part of your continued growth is found in the connections you have made. The people you surround yourself with are the ones that will carry you far and wide. You could even gain a lucrative contact, client or job through a friend or acquaintance! So start reaching out to people!
Saturn will also be very helpful at this eclipse. It has been touring your 12th House for a year now, where the lessons you have learned have been in the quiet. They haven’t always been easy — releasing old relationships, old habits, old modes of being. However, now you have learned that by letting go, you receive more. You may be told to continue this theme — finish tying up some loose ends. Yet, on the other side there is more brewing. Let this be a call to aligning more with the quietest parts of you. Once Jupiter enters your sign at the end of the month, you will see that all of your shedding was not in vain. I truly believe so many wonderful things will be headed your way in the next year. This is just the start of it all.
Use this eclipse to focus on your career and your life direction. Don’t be afraid to put yourself out there. Be noticed and seek opportunities that make you more visible. Call the shots and show your leadership qualities. Strive for new goals and scale ever higher mountains. Enjoy the fruits of your labor and relish in your successes. See the power within you and let that be what pushes you into the next phase of your life. You are moving toward such great heights.

Taurus Full Moon Eclipse Miniscopes
Taurus Full Moon
Eclipse Miniscopes
Grounding Through Change.
The Full Moon Eclipse in Taurus falls at 27º on November 19th at 3:57 AM EST. As we begin our ascent from the depths of Scorpio Season and head into Sagittarius Season, we are given a Full Moon in Taurus to bring us back to Earth - the place between Heaven and Hell. This Full Moon will be an eclipse, one that illuminates everything we have been through over the last few weeks. Changes have been made, directions have been altered, and perspectives shifted. Taurus now wants us to get to work. We can use all we have gained to work toward a steady outcome.
Eclipses bring things to light, especially Full Moon eclipses. There is little say in what happens, but a strong flow of energy that sweeps in to give us the answers we seek. The accumulation and potency of eclipses are so powerful that they can be felt a month to the day before or even after the actual eclipse begins. It is wise to not make any sweeping final choices at this time, but to sit back and let the whirlwind of energy unfold before deciding. Taurus is patient, and we have to exercise that skill before we act.
Luckily, the Moon in its exalted state will prepare us. The Sun in Scorpio shines its light on the Moon in Taurus, where we find the power in these polarities – ownership. You are called to reclaim your power and stand your ground. With Pluto intercepting the Sun/Moon opposition, this is found through the transformation that we have undergone this season. Power resides in our ability to hold space for ourselves as much as someone else – to know our limits with another and not become obsessed or enmeshed in their ups and downs. Jupiter’s square to the Sun and Moon tells us the growth happens but not in the extremes. We can’t keep being pulled in two different directions. You are called to return home, back to you and the garden you have long neglected. It is time to till the soil again.
Venus leads this eclipse, this time with a loving energy toward Uranus (who caused havoc at the last lunation). We are inspired again, reclaiming the energy we thought we lost. We feel pulled toward making room, finding that freedom in our own self-confidence. Venus graces the arms of its cosmic lover, Mars — to bring motivation to our heart’s desires. Spontaneity is encouraged and helps to pull you out of ruts.
Try something new on a whim and go to a place you have never been. Explore the earth and feel the ground beneath you. Walk paths in the woods to find clarity in nature.
Mercury chats with Neptune and Pluto, keeping us in a dream state and bringing more out of the darkness from the New Moon prior. Conversation is important and deep. Anything less won’t interest Mercury enough to hold its attention. Mercury teaches us to listen to our inner calling, the voice within telling us that which we already know. Speak your magick and power into existence and watch as the spell unfolds from your exhales into the air — your breath, like ghosts escaping from your lips. It isn’t that you are just speaking, but you are witnessing.
Mars will have finished its opposition to Uranus. This brings up memories from the New Moon’s jolt. Perhaps now is the time to resolve or make moves based on what has been presented to you. You may surprise others with your actions, but sometimes we need this to reignite flames that have burnt out.
Change is how we grow and shed old skin. With this as the start of eclipse season, we know that it is a means for stability later.
Re-engage with your senses this Full Moon and get back to the Earth. We are rising out of the shadows and into the clouds, but we must first touch the ground again. This is only the beginning of what’s to come.
If you have any personal planets in your chart at 23º to 29º or 0º to 2º, you will feel the effects of this Full Moon the most. Especially those with strong Fixed placements. So, let’s break this down by sign!

We are now fully in the embrace of Eclipse Season. Eclipses are like cosmic dustpans and brooms, they come in to shake things up and then clean up. This is to rattle any complacency and stagnation. They create a swell of energy. Full Moon eclipses in particular, like this one, are very illuminating. They shine a light on problem areas or things that need to be addressed. Perhaps something is coming to a climax. This eclipse starts a new series— one that focuses on your resource sector.
Over the next 18 months or so, you may find that you have changes to your values, self-worth, resources, or assets. There can be a call to open yourself up more but also to find stable ground to stand on. This first one brings an awareness to your 2nd House of ownership, income, value, and worth. It may be time to visit the values and traditions you hold. Do they still align with you personally? Have you outgrown certain views? This is ok.
With the 2nd House, we stabilize our identity from the 1st House, thus we have to be ok with evolving our view on the world and everything around us. You alternatively could have changes to your income, financial picture, or need to address what you truly have ownership over in your life. The eclipse will highlight where you could improve. This may come as a result of some valuable insight(s) you receive from Pluto’s positive reception to this eclipse. Pluto has been in your 10th House, and you may finally be coming to terms with something in your career that can impact how you make money or what you value in your life overall.
There is a lot of activity around this eclipse, but to keep things simple we should focus a little on Venus, the ruler of this lunation. Venus will be well-positioned to Uranus and Mars at this time. In fact, it will be exactly trine to Uranus. There can be very positive or surprising outcomes as a result of the eclipse (expect them to unfold over the next few weeks or months). Mars and Uranus will be fighting, but Venus intersects this well. It ensures that even during what feels like jolting or uncertain times, that you have ground to stand on, or a soft place to land. Venus will protect you. If you have money going out or a debt to pay, know that you could receive a sum to cover that. It is almost like a loss with a recovery right afterward. Divine timing, if you will. Either way, it is best not to act around an eclipse and just let things unfold before you. Once the dust settles, everything will be more clear.
Use this eclipse to reflect on your values, morals, beliefs. Also, take stock in what you own and your financial picture. See what could use changing, re-budgeting or refocusing. You will be making major changes to how you handle personal and shared resources in the coming future.

Keyword: Being
You are in the spotlight in a way that you have not been in a long time. This upcoming Full Moon is an eclipse, and that changes the way the energy is conducted. Eclipses are full of evolution and shake ups, but they come with resolve and definitive answers in the end. So, what may feel like chaos is temporary. In all reality, the eclipse ends up being a guiding light. With this one being a Full Moon eclipse, it is likely that there will be a bright light shining on something in your life that may need changing, reflecting, or refocusing. This will start an 18 month journey for you–– where you focus on your boundaries, autonomy, and possibly even relationships.
Your 1st House is fully lit up at this lunation, which rules the self, the identity, and your motivations. Here, you will be staring at who you are, what you want, and what drives you. This isn’t always easy, especially if you have been in a complacent or stagnant phase. You may have to find peace in discomfort as you know that things around you are changing, and you will be asked to step out of your cocoon–– to transform yourself and the world around you. The spotlight from this lunation will have you questioning yourself, your boundaries, your goals, and really anything that is personal to you. This could bleed into your relationships, because as you change, so will they.
Pluto will be at a good angle for this eclipse, which is helpful. Pluto has been sitting in your 9th House showing you different perspectives, and seeing the world in a new way. Perhaps you are understanding the value in seeing beyond the current moment and starting to witness the big picture and how the pieces play into that. It could shift how you move about your life and your goals overall. Some of you may decide that it is time to take steps to be more spontaneous, adventurous, or focus on improving your life/situation. Almost as if roadblocks are no longer a problem, and you can only see achievement. Now, this won’t mean that the new journey or pathway that you start on will be easy. It just means that you are more ready than you ever have been.
Venus softens this eclipse quite a bit, even with the swirling activity. It leads this lunation and intercepts the harsh Mars/Uranus opposition. Mars and Uranus will be creating tensions with relationships or others in your life. So, you could have an argument, fight, or potentially even a relationship breakdown. Keep in mind, this isn’t just romantic. If there is already a problem with this relationship, the eclipse will bring into full view. Think of this as a cosmic dustpan and broom. If you do break a relationship, know that something better is on its way — especially with Venus working to ease the blow. You already seem ready to let this person go, and Venus is there to guide you to seeing how it will benefit you (and possibly them) in the long run. The important thing is knowing the boundaries you have created and not easing up to appease.
Use this eclipse to work on yourself and focus on your needs. See what needs to be adjusted or refined. Where could you benefit from being more gentle with yourself? Where could you be more disciplined? How can you see yourself more clearly? You can make great strides in standing out and allowing yourself to be seen and heard. You are a path toward really making shifts in your identity and overall life.

We are now submerged into eclipse season, and with this comes a full wave of activity. However, for you, things are a bit different. You are craving peace, serenity, and solitude. Eclipses can note an ending of sorts, and this couldn’t be more true as this one falls in your 12th House. However, not all endings are bad. Given the power of an eclipse, it may not be comfortable but it will be for the best. This is the start of a new ecliptic cycle, and one that we will have for 18 months or so. You will have to reckon with your life in its intricacies, routines, grand visions, and the ways in which you may escape. Care and service will be top of mind.
Service is a word you may not actively think about, but it is one that holds value. Service is not always to another person––it can be to yourself, your body, your heart, mind, or soul. You need not always sacrifice to care for yourself. This eclipse will highlight where you could use more balance, rest and realignment.
Of course, that may come with something being let go or being tied up, but that leaves more room for you. If you have been on a one way train to burnout, it is time to slow that train and take active steps toward recovery. The eclipse falling in your 12th House will have you asking yourself the bigger questions in life, which could include how you find respite, faith, and how you engage in any sort of spirituality. This is a House of healing and suffering — perhaps it is time to end the things that bring you suffering, grief or pain. Make room in the waters for you to swim more freely.
Pluto aids this Full Moon from your 8th House, so it seems you have been gradually considering who can help you and what needs to be addressed. This is a point of rebirth, breaking cycles, and owning your power. You have been reclaiming yourself for years, and with this eclipse activating Pluto, it's time to put it to the test. Pluto asks for you to dig deep, uncover the hidden potential below the surface and embrace your humanity and your soul. Sharing yourself intimately is part of that. As you close a chapter, you will be insulating yourself more, cutting some people out, but you will also have to find those that you trust and share more deeply with them. Asking for help or space is not selfish, especially through change.
Venus leads this lunation where it will come between Mars and Uranus in their fight for freedom. There can be tensions internally and externally that are driving you to be unsure or feel pulled in different directions. As much as you crave rest, life seems to be getting busier. You have to give yourself grace. Mars and Uranus both are very dynamic and erratic when at their worst. However, with Venus being so positively aspected to both, you will be able to adjust and find moments for reflection and healing. Venus grants you care and peace in the quiet moments, and reminds you that you are not alone.
Use this Full Moon to focus on the places that you escape or choose to ignore. See what needs to come to a close and what needs to be expanded. Make peace in the quiet. Find power in resolution. Explore new areas of faith, belief, and spirituality — but also be ok with not knowing or having answers. You are on the precipice of closing a chapter and starting a whole new one. What is needed to fully walk through that door?

The future can feel so far away, but we forget that it is unfolding even in this present moment. In layman’s terms, the future is now. And this feeling couldn’t be captured more perfectly than with this eclipse on the 19th of November. This will start a new cycle for you where you are looking at taking more risks and seeking more attention–– but also balancing this with how all of this works with your visions and goals. You will be finding your space in a community. There is a desire to create but also to ensure that the output or outcome not only benefits you, but everyone around you. Some things will have to change in order to make this happen, and part of that may be a readjustment of your plans or goals.
This eclipse will shine a light on your 11th House, where you are reflecting on your friendships, network, hopes, and goals. Because it is a Full Moon eclipse, something may be eclipsed out of your life or need to be refined. Because you are ruled by the Moon, you could feel especially sensitive or heightened at this time. You may have to come to terms with a friendship or community that needs to be addressed. Perhaps you are ready to approach the relationship differently. Alternatively, you may be changing and shifting your outlook on your future self — learning how to better seek support to make dreams a reality. You asking for help or leaning on others doesn’t make you weak. It is a reminder that you can be filled and nourished by others, as much you may nourish them.
Pluto is especially helpful at this Full Moon, so one relationship in particular is deepening. There is a transformation and a stronger connection happening. Pluto has been creating waves in the 7th House for years, pushing to compromise at times or rise up and fight during other moments. You know what you expect now from your important relationships, and at this eclipse you feel more assured than ever. Pluto gives way to intimacy and true healing between you and others, finally bringing to rest an old, outdated dynamic or power struggle that may have been a past narrative. There is only equal ground. So, stand on it.
Venus leads this Full Moon, sweeping its loving arms around warriors, Mars and Uranus. As Mars and Uranus clash, you could see tensions rise and true motives revealed. Perhaps a truth is exposed, one that you had not seen coming. You may be battling issues around self-confidence or expression — maybe not being perceived how you’d like. Mars is racing through your 5th House, and you feel yourself learning to not take life so seriously. A light-hearted approach will do you wonders. The ask is for you to be authentic and let go of the need to please. It's time to stop caring about what others may think. Venus cuts in at this opposition and reminds you who is really important and the relationships where you can truly be yourself. There will be people that may come and go, and there will be those that last a lifetime. Seek solace in the relationships worth the investment. Breathe life into the things that matter.
Use this Full Moon to reflect on your goals and future visions. See where you are and ask for support where it matters. Don’t allow yourself to fall victim to pleasing people. Learn to find the community and friendships that are worthy. Invest in the relationships that challenge you to grow. Your hopes and dreams can become a reality when you truly ask for help. You are finding your strength again.

We know change is inevitable. It comes with sweeping gestures that push us in one direction or another. To see the power in change as a potential new beginning shifts our mindset. Eclipses are known to bring swift and chaotic energy that blossoms into a fresh start. Sometimes, this happens within the 18 month cycle––sometimes it happens during a 4 week period. Either way, we know that things are about to gain momentum, especially as this Full Moon eclipse begins to culminate.
The eclipse falls in your 10th House. A position that sits at the top of your chart. The Moon will be beaming a light here, having you focus your attention on your career, life direction and practical goals. You know that you want to do something different in this area of your life. Is it a new job? A promotion? A complete 180º? Whatever it is, the eclipse will bring it to the forefront of your mind. Some of you may move up, while some may quit or lose a job. Others may feel a general pressure at work, and it can be the catalyst for something new coming later on. It is hard to say how it will all shake up, but new pathways will soon begin to show up for you. Over the next 18 months, any changes at work will feel monumental. Thus, the gravity of it can be heavy — but once it finally reaches a head, it will alleviate all of that compounding pressure.
Pluto is positively aspected to this eclipse, which is extremely beneficial. Pluto has been hanging out in your 6th House for a while. Here, you have transformed your work environment, routines, health habits, or even your daily life. You have re-prioritized your needs. So, now you are asked to take what you’ve learned and apply it. Any minor shift will lead to a greater domino effect for you, but it will unfold beautifully in the end. Pluto drags us through the shadows, and so there may be some fears you have to face first. But with the Moon exalted, there is no way you won’t end up on top.
Venus sits at the intersection of the Mars/Uranus opposition. Venus is mediating the tension between these two dynamic energies. You could feel pushed and pulled between work and home, family and freedom. There is uncertainty. A risk. You may have to move (maybe for a new job) unexpectedly––or just have something come up with a family member. Whatever it is, it may feel like a headache or a complete upheaval. Because Venus is the ruler of this Full Moon, it will ease this energy. It will come in to ground in the present and remind you to focus on what is right in front of you. You are asked to do something to take care of yourself, even in a small way. It will bring you back to your body and keep your mind calm. Sometimes, even the most mundane tasks can bring about the greatest pleasure or joy.
As there is so much happening around this Full Moon eclipse, use this time to truly reflect on where you are. Are you happy at work? What needs changing? Are you doing what makes you happy? Take steps to get what you want out of your life. Redirect your path. Ask for the promotion. Find new employment. Witness the dynamics at work and then assess your next moves. You are beginning a new cycle where your career and home will be the two areas of your life that will change the most. It is time to lean in and go after what you want.

Keyword: Freedom
This is not a time to compromise what makes you feel alive. You have worked hard to give yourself more freedom. As we enter the next 18 months, we begin a new cycle that asks you to reach farther than you ever have before. This will require you to rewrite the narratives you had once written in your head. The perception of what is possible may be limited by what you are seeing, and not fully enveloped in what you are believing.
Eclipses shed light on what needs to be addressed or changed in our lives. As this eclipse is the start of the Taurus/Scorpio cycle, there will be changes in how you see the world around you. Your 9th House is being impacted here, and for the first time in a long time, you are willing and able to see the obstacles standing in the way of your growth. In so many ways, this is the beginning of a new adventure for you. One where you are asked to take a leap of faith and trust yourself along the way. You could explore new ways to expand your horizons, whether that be travel, education, spirituality or even through experiences. It can feel like a trust fall into the universe. The big picture perspective will be important, as you can reframe fear into motivation.
Pluto is helpful at this lunation, working from your 5th House. You have been dealing with issues around self-confidence. The work you have put into this over the last many years is now put to the test. Do you feel confident enough in yourself to just go for what you want? You can transform the need for perfection into an unfolding perception––as life is a series of pathways and adventure. You may not know how you are getting to your goals at times, but that is ok. The end result is all the same. Pluto brings up inhibitions and shows you the power in reclaiming your faith in yourself.
Of course, nothing is as simple as it sounds. Mars and Uranus clash, creating a volcanic energy around this eclipse. This can bring surprising or jolting information. Something that you may not have seen coming. Mars is powering through your 3rd House, so news or words hold more weight and can be more sharp than normal. You may speak out of character or could have an argument with someone close to you. Luckily, Venus enters to smooth things over, reminding you that speaking your truth and coming from an authentic place is never a bad thing. Sure, delivery is important, but sharing a real part of you is too. Venus leads this Full Moon and adds that levity that is needed, cutting through the tension like a knife. Find peace in the newfound confidence you have. Lean into your creativity and things that bring you joy.
Use this Full Moon to assess the big picture. Where could you use more adventure in your life? You could feel a push and pull to act immediately, give things some time to settle. You will see that you are on the brink of a new journey, one that allows you to take the lead. You can explore new perspectives, educate yourself and seek out more spontaneous experiences. Nothing is perfect, but you can enjoy every moment that is set out before you. No time is wasted when you truly are living.

We are now in the midst of eclipse season, where changes are swift and inevitable. You can think of an eclipse as a cosmic broom and dustpan. It comes to sweep away what is no longer working. This is the start of a new cycle, one that focuses on Taurus/Scorpio and will carry us for the next 18 months. We start this series with a Full Moon, meaning that some things may need to end in order for new ones to begin.
As the Moon reaches fullness, it will shine a light on your 8th House. This is an area of your chart that rarely sees the light of day. Here, the focus is on all you share intimately with others — your resources, your emotional nature, your fears, and your healing. There is a call to get deep and reflect on your path up until this point. The 8th House points to cycles, and in many ways, you will be ending and beginning new cycles over the next year and a half. Your resources will be in question or come to mind — in a material sense and otherwise. You could receive unexpected sums of money, have larger debts to pay or even just start to reframe your financial picture. You are asked to share more deeply with those you trust and open up, especially when you find yourself in a place of fear and uncertainty. The 8th House exposes all that sits below the surface. It’s time to swim in the deeper waters.
Luckily, Pluto is very helpful at this eclipse. It has been sitting in your 4th House, so changes can be likely around the Home or with Family. It reaches out to the Moon in a beautiful trine. You may receive financing on a mortgage or loan, sell or buy a home, redecorate or renovate. Alternatively, there could be something that comes up with a family member. Because of the trine, it does seem positive. This could be a gift from someone, inheritance, or even just a very powerful conversation that can spur a closeness that may have been lost. Even through the whirling energy, there is still peace to be found.
Now, Mars and Uranus are fighting in your financial Houses. There could be money coming in and out. Or it could just be a sore subject, as you are trying to regain a sense of security or stability. Don’t fret. Venus, the leader of this lunation, is very helpful to both planets. Consider Venus to be the mediator. It will point again to your 4th House, where there is solace to be found through your home, family, and emotional foundations. Someone or something is really coming through for you in a big way. Probably more than you have anticipated. Accept the support if it comes.
Use this Full Moon to break bad habits. Shine a light on the shadows in your life and face your fears. Open up about things more intimately with people you trust and allow others to support you more deeply. Reframe your financial picture and focus on ways to alleviate a scarcity mindset. Even as the material resources may ebb and flow, there will be plenty of opportunity for a fresh start. Reclaim your power. This is only the beginning.

The tides change and the focus will shift during your season. The beginning of a new ecliptic cycle has started with this Full Moon. Of course, eclipses are potent energetic portals that bring sweeping changes in our lives. They come and go in waves, and some will feel more powerful than others. The next 18 months will see them fall in your sign and your polarity, Taurus. So, expect to see important shifts in you and your relationships with others.
The first of this series will be in Taurus, lighting up your 7th House. How you relate to others is what comes to mind here. The 7th House rules partnerships — platonic, romantic, business, familial, and otherwise. So you could bring a close relationship to an end or have it taken to the next level. In some ways, the ball is in your court. Alternatively, you may be asked to see more of another person’s point of view. Maybe there have been misunderstandings with someone you care about, and now is really your chance to find peace, resolution, and unity together. Whatever comes of this eclipse, just know that boundaries will change, dynamics may end but new ones will be brought in their place.
Pluto, your modern ruler, aids at this eclipse! It comes in to trine the Moon from your 3rd House. Conversations are very healing now, more than they have been in a long time. It seems you are finding the right words to speak your truth and truly tell others what you feel or have been thinking. A true dialogue is being created in a way that has not existed before. Pluto gives you the power to choose your words wisely and well. You are being heard.
Now, there does seem to be some sort of battle between autonomy and freedom vs how you relate to people in your life. Mars and Uranus are clashing, creating tensions, arguments, and aggravations. Some of this will come about all of a sudden. Almost as if it has been brewing for a while. You could be surprised by someone else’s behavior. But Venus is very positively aspected to both Uranus and Mars, helping to wave a white flag in the middle of their battle. Venus is sitting in the same House as Pluto, gifting you the diplomacy and tact to create a very powerful conversation around anything that arises. Communication is key. If you need an outside opinion, talk with a close friend or a sibling to gain a different perspective.
Use this Full Moon to focus on the others in your life. Figure out the dynamic and how you show up to your relationships — and how the other people show up for you, too. This is all about the two way street. You could have to make decisions or find a conclusion. Create boundaries where necessary and allow for the right relationships to flourish for you. You are on the brink of so much change.

As we shift from one eclipse series to the next, you will start to feel the weight you have been carrying lift a little more. This Full Moon will start the Taurus/Scorpio cycle that we will carry for the next 18 months — whereas the Gemini/Sagittarius series will end on December 4th. Everything you have been working toward over the last year or so will start to reach a finale or resolution. This new series will highlight some of the changes you have already made, but ask you to dive a little deeper.
The Full Moon will be bright in your 6th House, where your health, daily routines and even work will come into play. You are being faced with ways to reschedule your life and create better rituals and regimens. If you have been dealing with health issues, this is not a time to sweep that under the rug. You will have to face the facts and get the answers you need. Some of you could be trying to get healthier or just find the balance between work and life. You will be busier than normal around this eclipse, so care for yourself. If people try to overstep your boundaries, you have the power to let them know. Your workplace will likely be going through changes — try not to internalize them or bite off more than you can chew around it. If you work for yourself, consider how much you can realistically take on right now.
Pluto will be very helpful at this lunation, creating a trine to the Moon. You may receive a raise, promotion, or gain additional responsibilities at work. If you work for yourself, give yourself a raise/review your pricing. Pluto has been transforming your 2nd House — where you have been dealing with your resources differently. So know that there seems to be a reward around the work you are doing or even a place of savings. Pay attention to how you invest your time, energy, or money. If you are presented with an opportunity to move up, just make sure that you are getting paid fairly.
Uranus will fight with Mars at this eclipse, and this can cause you to feel a little bit like you are in overload. There is a push and pull between resting and productivity. But forcing yourself to do work isn’t helpful. Sometimes, you just need to slow down. You might have to face something coming to an end that you had not seen coming, but it will work out for the best. Venus is helpful here, as it leads this Full Moon and intercepts the opposition. You are learning your worth and seeing your value in a new way. Venus says that even if a resource ends, a new one is on its way — it may show up just in time.
Use this Full Moon to focus on your health and body. Take control of the details and mind the little things. Create better boundaries with work and cultivate a work/life balance. Seek a job change or shift in responsibilities if you are not happy with what you are doing. Find new clients if you work for yourself and implement a better way to be of service to your needs first.

We see the Full Moon shine a light on your 5th House, a place of creativity, conception, expression, love, and children. This is an area of joy and pleasure. So, what makes you happy? You could be reflecting on how to bring more fun into your life and opening yourself up to new adventures. You feel ready now. However, this means repairing the relationship you have with your self image. Why shy away from the spotlight? You deserve space as much as anyone else. To allow yourself to be seen, is to be proud of who you are. Don’t hide for the sake of someone else’s perceptions. If you are looking to conceive an idea, a project, a child, or a relationship, let this Full Moon help you. It takes a level of risk to make it happen, but what do you have to lose? You are becoming more aware of your ability to manifest your desires into reality.
Pluto is working well with the eclipse, having you face personal limitations and fears that have been brought before you in the past few years. There is no evading. Instead, you are called to bring back your power and hold it confidently in your hands. You have truly transformed your view on yourself over the last 5–10 years. It has not been easy, and you are still not fully finished yet. However, you are more aware and able to see the value you hold. Pluto wants you to put yourself first right now. To consider that through the fun and exciting things you want to do, you have to be all in. You can’t waiver. As you seek new experiences, you have to go in with both feet.
Mars and Uranus are fighting at this eclipse, creating chaos. You will feel pulled between what is best for you or best for the group. But in reality, you can’t control their views or perspectives — only your own. You will have surprises arise with a friend or an acquaintance. There could be an argument with someone, a budding romance or a need to find a new group of people to spend time with. It seems that you are ready to expand your network. You have to find the support you need, especially with people who see you for who you are. Venus is very helpful during this clash of the titans. It leads this Full Moon and eases the tensions. Venus is traveling through your sign, so the outcome will be positive for you. Venus wants you to really focus on your self-worth and embrace the new values that you create over the coming months. You aren’t for everyone, but the right people will see you for the star you are.
Use this Full Moon to play, create and get in touch with your inner child. Repair the relationship with your self-image and feel more confident in how you express yourself. Open your heart up and show people what you are made of. Take new risks and really put yourself out there. This is a time to be seen and take up room like you never have before. You are worthy of this.

We are now submerged into eclipse season, and with this comes a full wave of activity. However, for you, things are a bit different. You are craving quiet, stability, and emotional peace. Eclipses can bring swift change, and for you this may come on the Homefront. Given the power of an eclipse, it may not be comfortable but it will be for the best. This is the start of a new ecliptic cycle, and one that we will experience for 18 months or so. Family, home, sanctuary, space ,and your emotional past will come into play during this new series.
Your 4th House is being lit up at this eclipse, where you see changes in your family and home. There can be dynamics that alter. You could be confronted to deal with your past and find peace with your memories — even if they were hard. The 4th House is about emotional foundations, and it is from here that everything is built. Stabilizing this part of your life allows for the security you seek. Some of you may bring in new members of the family, change your living space or even update your decor. You are being asked to take control of this private part of your life. Home is where the heart is, and you have to ensure that your heart is safe and protected.
Pluto is very helpful at this eclipse, so it seems that if something comes to an end, it is brought with peace. There is a serenity around doors that close. Almost as if the ending needed to happen to bring the change you were seeking. You could be called to spend more time with yourself and find peace in the solitude. Pluto has been teaching you to trust yourself and your intuition more. Follow your feelings and watch things unfold for you. This would be an excellent time to really tune into the power you have in your own magick, faith, or beliefs.
Venus leads this lunation, which can be very helpful — especially as it intercepts the opposition of Mars and Uranus. Mars and Uranus are both creating tension — where you may be compromising your peace based on external factors. You will be pulled between your life’s direction and your home. Are you working toward the career or things you want? Are you happy with what you are doing? It seems that you could be overloaded with work or feeling more busy than normal. But don’t allow this to take up space in your private life. You have to create separation. Venus tells you to focus on care in the quiet. Tend to what needs to be addressed and find time for respite, especially as it travels to your 12th House. You may have to end something financial, but Uranus says something new is about to open up for you. It could come out of the blue or be a surprise.
Use this Full Moon to bring it all back home. Spend time with your family. Redecorate or reorganize your home. Prepare yourself for a move or a change in the home/family front. Focus on your emotional well-being and tend to places where you feel more vulnerable. Create stability in the quiet and make time for personal reflection. You redefine your peace and carve out space for you to process how you feel. Your foundations are changing.

Keyword: Flexibility
You may be weary to use your voice, but sometimes speaking up can be the greatest tool we have to reclaim our power, peace, and freedom. You will be changing how you use this tool over the next 18 months, especially as we begin a new eclipse series with this Full Moon in Taurus. The stories you have been told change, especially as you are the one who will write the next chapter. Your flexibility will be tested, and this will be a testament to your growth.
The eclipse comes to shine brilliantly on your 3rd House. You will feel as if your phone is ringing off the hook. It seems that a lot of people are contacting you and trying to get ahold of you. The 3rd House rules communication, so dialogue is going to be very important now. Watch what you say and how you say it, listen to what others are saying as well. You could be signing a contract or need to make something more official. Whatever it is, you are busier than you have been in a while–– and it seems that it is coming from all sides. This is also a space of learning, adapting, and integrating. It is in this House that we find power through words, but also through what we learn in daily life. Perhaps you are being asked to be more proactive and take more control of your daily affairs. Scheduling and organizing will be helpful.
Pluto is really a powerhouse at this eclipse, helping to amplify your voice to a crowd. You are in a highly visible position, which is not always natural for you. Pluto is bringing a wave of support around you, and people are rallying to your aid — but this is only possible if you speak up. Pluto has been teaching you which friends to trust. So if you are feeling overwhelmed, reach out to someone. Pluto has also been helping you reshape your future, and part of this comes from what is happening in the current moment. Your perception of tomorrow is changing as every second passes. This is that flexibility I was speaking of. It can be hard to know what the future holds, but knowing that you aren’t alone will ease any of your fears.
Mars and Uranus create tensions — and this can lead to questioning your beliefs or the faith you have in yourself. You could receive shocking or surprising news. Alternatively, you could be battling intuition vs anxiety and feeling torn in two doing what feels right vs what you think is right. Mars is giving you an itch to grow and seek adventure, but you have to free yourself from the worries that you hold. Uranus is asking for you to take a leap of faith and just know that even if you can’t see the ground, you will be ok. Venus, the leader of this Full Moon, creates a soft spot for you to land. You are supported. There is literally a network of people around you that will catch you when you fall. Don’t be afraid to lean on them. Speak up about what is plaguing you. You are not a burden. No one can guess what you are thinking if you don’t say something.
Use this Full Moon to work on your dialogue. Use your voice as a tool for change and growth. Speak up and talk about what is happening below the surface. Establish strong relationships with those you trust and take a leap of faith on the things you believe in. Discern anxiety vs intuition and find peace in knowing you are still working toward what you want — even if it feels unclear. Perfection is unfolding. Right now, you have to address today to get to tomorrow.
Full Moon Note
Happy Full Moon, everyone! This is an eclipse, so not necessarily a time for magick or rituals. However, this is an ideal time to listen to yourself more, meditate and uncover truths.
