Friday, DECEMBER 13

Retrograde Mercury periods tend to send us looking to the past for further or previously hidden information. It’s a good time to see an issue in a new light. We feel the most challenging side of Mercury retrograde around the time it changes direction, which happens on the 15th, so we might want to avoid complicated decision-making for the time being. There may be too much happening now to think clearly.

However, this morning’s Mercury-Venus sextile stimulates a desire to cooperate, compliment, encourage, and express our affections. We’re also inclined to analyze our relationships, particularly past ones, as well as our preferences and feelings. Connecting with people from our past is also possible.

This morning, a creative aspect between Venus and Chiron suggests gaining a social advantage through a willingness to grow, learn, and listen. We’re especially receptive to one another’s needs.

The Moon continues its transit of steady Taurus until 12:22 PM EST when it heads into connected Gemini. The Sun’s parallel to Pluto adds a layer of intensity to the day and brings the desire for self-mastery to our attention.

The Moon is void from 7:39 AM EST, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a sextile to Neptune), until the Moon enters Gemini at 12:22 PM EST.
