This Week: November 30 – December 6
There is an ebb and flow of intensity and joy as we ease through Monday’s eclipse and into December. Mercury enters Sagittarius on Tuesday bringing exciting new ideas, adventure, and a little indecision – these go-with-the-flow vibes are available to us through December 20th.

Monday, November 30th
Full Moon Eclipse in 8-Gemini
Do you have too many tabs open? What project do you need to put down in order to move forward with other areas that are important to you? What way of communication isn’t working any more? This phase that signifies the completion of a cycle, endings, and closure is more prominent now as we get closer to the Grand Mutation on Solstice. It can be helpful to identify what you’re afraid of this week, so you can work towards (or be open to) new solutions.
Eclipse Intention: The right and left hemispheres of my brain synchronize, facilitating mental clarity, discernment, and honesty.

Weekend Vibes
The Seeker-vibe is prominent with both Mercury and the Sun in Sagittarius and the 7-month in numerology. What do you want to learn more about?

Have healing conversations, read self-discovery books/newsletters, and say prayers/intentions/affirmations for a healthy outlook.
Be careful about / guard against overly intoxicating foods, drinks, and energetically draining people that steal your time. Crystal Magick: Amazonite (soothing of the mind, body & soul) and Amethyst (clarity + spiritual grounding).
This Week: December 7 – 13
Caution lights come on as the Sun squares Neptune. Mistakes in diagnosis, cloudy judgment, errors, and innocent mistakes can become detrimental. Imaginations can take over, and things can get blown out of proportion. Double check all of your work. Good news comes towards the end of the week as the Sun trines Mars. Say yes – you can tackle anything that comes your way.
Word to the Wise: Be open to creating small changes in order to get clarity. What’s right in front of you? That’s your work this week. Play the hand you get.
Love: Chaos comes before clarity in relationships this week as Venus sesquisquares Chiron. Moods are affecting dynamics – take it easy and avoid critical decisions. Use Tuesday’s Last Quarter Moon to remove yourself from destructive relationships. Wednesday’s Libra Moon is a good time to focus on companionship. Crystal Magick: Fluorite (clarity + peace) and Blue Apatite (authenticity + balance.
Money: Pace yourself with a conservative approach, but take action regarding investments, banking, and estate planning as Venus sextiles Pluto this week. Is a change of perspective needed?

Spend time connecting to your highest self through visualization and meditation under Friday’s transformative Scorpio Moon. Crystal Magick: Serpentine (regeneration + psychic stimulation) and Black Tourmaline (energy clearing + security).
Weekend Vibes
The weekend looks energetically rocky. Drink water, get plenty of rest, don’t overcommit yourself. Sometimes less is more. Be aware of confusion, delusions of grandeur, toxins (Mercury squares Neptune). Pack your patience and plan on delays, eccentricities, and odd personality-conflicts. Someone else’s problems can become your dilemma (Sun sesquisquare Uranus). The antidote is to focus on feeling free under Sunday’s Sagittarius Moon.Crystal Magick: Peacock Ore (joyous self expression + inspiration) and Lapis (travel, adventure + freedom).
This Week: December 14 – 20
The Skies are quite busy this week! Buckle up as four planets change signs and we gear up for one of the most incredible astrological signature events of our lives on the 21st. Crystal Magick: Aquamarine (purity, truth + freedom) and Hematite (stress relief + stamina).
The bad news: everything is impermanent. The good news: everything is impermanent. This is not an ideal time for acting on your impulses. Sarcasm, rebellion, and radical change are in the air. Wait for a better time to execute plans that cause a major upheaval (Mercury sesquisqures Uranus).
Venus enters Sagittarius on December 15th and stays in Sagittarius for the rest of the year invoking the universal vibe of spreading good cheer. Chiron Direct on the same day encourages us to reflect on what has truly been healed and solved this year – taking special notice to any insights gained during the retrograde period (7/11- 12/15). Chiron remains direct in Aries the remainder of the year.
Saturn has been in home-sign Capricorn for roughly three years. It’s a bittersweet exit as the “Lord of Karma” moves into Aquarius, the sign of freedom on December 17th. It’s necessary to break free from the past and explore new territory. This combination reminds us to take responsibility for ourselves and our freedoms. It can be a year when humanity and the collective consciousness has a breakthrough.
Jupiter meets Saturn in Aquarius on the 19th towards the much anticipated Great Mutation on December 21st. Thus begins the first dance in a new 200-year cycle.
Mercury enters Capricorn on the 20th and remains there for the rest of the year. A part of you shifts to consider long-term plans. There is a way to balance the desires of your heart, with tangible, practical action items.
Love: Positive vibes. Smooth sailing with luck, love, money, and moods. Reconciliation is possible, and it’s easy to fall in love with Venus sextiling Jupiter and trining Chiron.
Money: Much can be accomplished through physical or mental effort. Stability and viability. Hard work pays off. Purchases and mergers made during this time prove favorable. Open a new bank account to give it a great birthdate. Make a start to any financial amends. Check some boxes off your list as Mercury trine Mars and Venus sextiles Saturn this week.
Focus on long-term strategies and ambitions. What are you wanting to grow? What stabilizes your future? Spend some time alone to get clear with yourself as well as clear your energy under Tuesday’s Capricorn Moon..

The planet of abundance in the sign of Aquarius challenges us to be more inventive, more socially aware, and more renegade. Your uniqueness is your lucky charm – what makes you –you? (Jupiter is in Aquarius from Dec. 19th, 2020 – July 2021). Crystal Magick: Blue Lace Agate (healing + calm) and Chevron Amethyst (peace of mind + dream/meditation enhancement).

This Week: December 21 – 27
Think about where you can make wise investments with your time, heart, and money. Life has given you experience and training for what is about to unfold before you. Refuse to be impatient or intolerant right now. Your mantra: All is well in our Kingdom.
Danger, explosive outbursts, and anger surface this week as well. Be careful under the third and final Mars/Pluto square of 2020.
The Sun enters Capricorn on Monday under a First Quarter Moon in Aries: Happy Solstice! Happy Birthday Capricorn! And dare I say Happy Great Conjunction?! The Great Conjunction between Jupiter and Saturn happens every 20 years. This reunion of the Masters has taken place in an Earth sign for the last 200 years… but on December 21st, they shift into a new cycle of meeting in Air signs, igniting a new 200-year cycle.
Historically, we have seen the rise and fall of notable empires during this transit (elections, spiritual movements, etc). This period is a time of moving forward, creating a clearly defined plan for your life, and reaping the benefits of hard work.
Love: Venus sesquisquares Mars: Tension, combative natures, and flirting with danger on Tuesday. Let time pass before making important decisions, calls, or moves.

Health: Mercury squares Chiron on the 24th: Go easy on yourself and others. Pain is just below the surface for many you encounter. Mental illness, head wounds, false beliefs come up for healing. Consider praying for the person who offends you.
Solstice Invitation: December 21st
Reflect on the past year while deeply considering plans for the future. This is my favorite time of year to create vision boards. I love to look at photos from the year past with gratitude and Mexican hot cocoa, and look forward to seeing what the numerology and astrology of the coming year holds. Then it’s time to light a candle, draw a dream wheel, write an annual intention, color a mandala, do a 12-card tarot spread, or creatively weave words into wishes in our journals. (Check out our 2021 tarot wheels!)
In my family, we host “Eve Eve” – a family holiday gathering two nights before Christmas. We also look forward to the beginning of the coming year with traditions such as eating black-eyed peas and setting New Year’s resolutions on New Year’s Eve. There is great ceremony going on in our kitchens, soaking peas and making cornbread. Why? Tradition. Our grandmothers taught us that eating black-eyed peas as the first food of the new year brings good luck. What is your family tradition? What Solstice and New Year traditions do you want to spark?
Intention:
I honor the changing season. I trust the natural rhythms of my body, mind, and spirit to uphold and renew me. I am closely bonded to Nature and my family this Solstice season and always.
Weekend Vibes
Connect with friends, read a new book, or have fun staying busy under Saturday’s Gemini Moon. Crystal Magick: Labradorite (consciousness expansion + energetic balance) and Sodalite (mental stimulation + clear communication).
This Week: December 28 – 31
Plot twist! Beware of toxins, lover’s quarrels, singing on the wrong note, sugar overload, and buyer’s remorse as Venus squares Neptune while we close out 2020.
Wednesday, December 30th

The end of an era, a year, a month, a day, a moment, and a feeling in terms of your home and securities. What is over in your world (as you know it) and how can you offer gratitude for what was? This phase signifies the completion of a cycle, endings, and closure.
