Well, here we are at the last month of 2019. I don’t know about you, but I found that the year flew by. This month will be a busy one, so let’s get started.

Jupiter enters the sign of Capricorn on Dec. 2 and will stay there for approximately one year. When the planet of expansion and generosity is in the sign of Capricorn, you can expect a more serious approach to life, especially in comparison to the last 12 months when it was in Sagittarius. There will be more energy put into work and business opportunities with a high value placed on accomplishments. Jupiter in Capricorn asks you to put your head down and focus on what you want. With hard work and a plan, you can achieve your goals.

There is also a Solar Eclipse this month on Christmas night at 11:13 pm. A solar eclipse is an amped-up New Moon. The energies are felt for up to six months. This solar eclipse may be a lucky one with Jupiter in close conjunction to it. Jupiter is lucky, generous and expansive. This solar eclipse could bring good fortune in your personal life, as well as your professional life. Uranus is also in the mix, forming a trine to the Sun, Moon and Jupiter. You could have a surprise in store, possibly having to do with work. You may feel the urge to step out of your comfort zone. The solar eclipse will be felt by all, but more so the closer it is to a personal planet in your natal chart. Either way, expect some surprises along the way.

The Moon takes about 28 days to complete its orbit through the 12 signs, staying approximately two and a half days in each sign. When we say the Moon is Void of Course or VoC, it means that the Moon makes no more major aspects to other planets before it leaves the sign its in. At these times, it can be difficult to get focused and accomplish a task. You may want to relax, meditate or do something where your focus is turned inward. Don’t try and get a new project off the ground when the Moon is Void. If you want to find out more about the Void of Course Moon, check out Moontracks.com.

The times below are listed in Central Standard Time.

When the Moon squares Mars, you could feel like you need to go out on your own. There’s a feeling of having to forge your own path, which at times can bring up feelings of loneliness.

Monday, December 2
Emotions and logic may be at odds with each other when the Moon squares Mercury. You could feel very moody and have strong opinions on a subject.

Mercury enters the sign of Sagittarius at 3:42 a.m. When the planet of communication is in the sign of the Archer, you can expect conversations to be interesting and varied. You may find that people are searching for meaning and answers. Communication may be more optimistic, but there’s also the potential for being blunt and saying what’s on your mind without any filter. These are just a few potentials when Mercury visits Sagittarius. You may be able to complete a few projects on your to-do list today with all the earthy energy. The Moon-Venus trine helps you to see people and situations in a positive light. It could be the start of a beautiful romance, friendship or finding what brings you joy. The Moon-Saturn trine may bring you the justice that you’re seeking in a situation. Everything will balance out in the end. Advice from an older person or someone whose opinion you trust could prove invaluable.

Tuesday, December 10
There’s the possibility of feeling slighted and on the outside looking in when the Moon opposes Mercury. Your thoughts keep you going in circles, leaving you unsure of what’s true and what is just your own paranoia. Moon enters the sign of Gemini at 10:47 a.m.

Wednesday, December 11
The Full Moon is asking you to tune into yourself and see what speaks to you. What would nurture you right now? You could feel pulled in a few directions, wanting to experience a variety of things. Stop, ask yourself what you want, listen and go for it. With planning, you could make your dream a reality. Emotions are heightened and you could be feeling everything. Be careful of misinterpreting something and being offended. Step back, take a breath and find out what’s really being said. The Full Moon is at 11:12 p.m. Moon is VoC
at 11:12 p.m.

After the energies of the Full Moon, which of course you’re still feeling, you may need some alone time. It could be time to retreat into your own cocoon until you feel safe enough to come out and face the world again. The Moon is VoC in Gemini for a good portion of the day, so there could be a lot of talking going on with little action taking place. Think about what you need to do next and make a list. You’ll get to it soon enough. Moon enters the sign of Cancer 5:23 p.m.

Friday, December 13
The Mars-Neptune trine may have you thinking of ways that you could help others. You’re idealistic and want to lend a helping hand; just don’t get caught in the trap of believing you’re someone’s savior. That won’t be good for anyone. Another aspect of this energy is that you may feel quite attractive and sensual and want to go enjoy yourself tonight. You never know who you may meet.

Saturday, December 14

The Moon-Neptune conjunction provides the perfect playground or some would say, escape, for New Year’s Eve fun. Enjoy the evening’s festivities, but be conscious of keeping one foot firmly planted on the ground. There’s also the potential for over-indulging and this Moon-Neptune aspect can amplify the effects of drugs and alcohol, so be aware and careful. That being said, I’d like to wish all of you a Happy New Year and the best for the year 2020!
