Wednesday, DECEMBER 27

The Sun forms a trine with Jupiter this morning, encouraging our desire to expand. We’re ready to give one another the benefit of the doubt! Enthusiasm runs high, and cooperation comes easily.

This transit stimulates hope, optimism, and a desire to improve and impress. We seek to grow a venture, a relationship, our knowledge, our personal philosophy, or a self-improvement program. We might make grand gestures and more readily rise above petty problems and differences. Optimism and confidence are core elements in the energy of this transit.

Retrograde Mercury aligns with Mars, and a problem from the past can re-emerge now, and we feel driven to take care of it, although it can be challenging to stay centered. We should watch for impatience, snappiness, and impulsive moves and words. This conjunction is suitable for motivated, energetic work, particularly related to communications and the mind. We may want to get right to the point, so that communications may be insensitive.

With Mercury retrograde, we might renew interest in handling an old problem or reviving an old project. This can be a time of racing minds and excited thoughts. Keeping busy and making headway satisfies us more than usual today. It will be imperative to channel excess mental energy constructively.
