Sunday, DECEMBER 20

The Moon spends the day in Pisces. While this Moon transit encourages a focus on the non-material world, Mercury enters Capricorn today, and the Sun will do the same tomorrow. Our thinking is systematic, and our focus is sober and practical while Mercury transits Capricorn until January 8th, 2021. It’s easier to concentrate on the task at hand under this influence. Our conversations may be quite realistic or focused on business/practical matters. Our thought patterns and communication styles are more logical, orderly, and organized. We’re able to sort out what is relevant and essential. Realism enters the picture, our speech is no-nonsense, and precision becomes most valuable to us. We should be wary of becoming too rigid in our thinking and coming across as cold or harsh during this cycle.

We’re heading toward a Venus-Uranus quincunx, exact early tomorrow, that influences today. It’s not easy integrating our needs for companionship or closeness with our desire for freedom and independence. There is a sense that we can only have one or the other. Temporarily, we’re unlikely to feel confident enough to rock the boat, but taming rebelliousness makes sense now.
