The Month of December Kicks off with an Invigorating New Moon in Sagittarius

 


On December 1, we have a New Moon in 9 degrees of Sagittarius.  New Moons are all about fresh starts and the themes associated with a New Moon in Sagittarius include inspiration, learning, adventure and seeking truth.  We literally have the opportunity to stretch out of our comfort zone and expand our horizons.

The New Moon in Sagittarius is squaring Saturn in 12 degrees of Pisces.  This will provide the opportunity to ground our dreams into reality and blend our spiritual insight with practical action.  We will also get a jolt of creativity, confidence and energy when the New Moon in 9 degrees of Sagittarius trines Mars in 5 degrees of Leo.  Mars is slowing down for its retrograde transit that begins on December 6.  

The Moon also conjuncts newly retrograde Mercury in 20 degrees of Sagittarius, which can emphasize sensitive and changeable emotions, especially since it occurs in a mutable fire sign.  So be on the lookout for mood swings and high intuition.  The New Moon in Sagittarius will also be opposing Jupiter in 17 degrees of Gemini, which is also opposing Mercury in 20 degrees of Sagittarius and squaring Saturn in 12 degrees of Pisces. This can contribute to a feeling of stop and start, because Jupiter, which loves to expand and grow is at odds with Saturn, which is more constrictive by nature. So we can expect a massive overload of opinions and ideas to be circulating on this day.  The square between Jupiter in Gemini and Saturn in Pisces has been a presence in the astrological weather since August 19 when it was exact in 17 degrees and it will be exact again on December 24 in 14 degrees.  The third and final exact square will occur on June 15, 2025 when Jupiter is in 1 degree of Cancer and Saturn is in 1 degree of Aries. The bottom line with this aspect is that it causes frustration and we need to slow down because progress is just not happening as fast as we would like it to.

Venus in Capricorn will be trining Uranus in 24 degrees of Taurus on December 2 and this will bring the urge to try something new in our lives, either in love or finances.  It can be very beneficial for socializing and creative endeavors.  The main thing to remember is to expect the unexpected.  Venus trining Uranus can also be the impetus for scoring some good deals in shopping.  I have a natal Venus-Uranus trine in water signs (Scorpio and Cancer), so I can attest that it is a pretty sweet aspect.

On December 4, the Sun in Sagittarius will be squaring Saturn in 13 degrees of Pisces.  This aspect is not so much fun, as it will bring tests, challenges as well as a tendency towards pessimism and depression.  It truly is a test of character and we need to be patient, determined and hunker down to work hard.

The Sun and Mercury will be conjunct in Sagittarius on December 5.  This will highlight communication and short distance travel despite being in the crosshairs of Mercury retrograde.  We can still feel free to share ideas and meet new people, but realize that those ideas could be up for review when Mercury goes direct on December 15.

I would also like to announce that I am no longer posting on X (formerly known as Twitter), but I am posting daily on Blue Sky Social as danceofphoenix@danceofphoenix.bsky.social. There is an astrological community starting there called AstroSphere. The link is https://bsky.app/profile/danceofphoenix.bsky.social.

If you are curious as to how all of this planetary action is affecting you, please consider getting an astrological consultation with me. Check out my menu of services at:

https://phoenixscorpio.blogspot.com/p/services-offered.html

I am also offering private astrology lessons by telephone or video, such as FaceTime, Skype or Zoom.  Please feel free to contact me at lindasim54@gmail.com if you are interested in learning more about astrology.

I have been doing more work with tarot readings, which I love, so I decided to create a combination reading which offers the option of a 30-minute astrology consultation with a one-question tarot reading for only $50. There is something for everyone and my menu of services can accommodate any budget. I also have a one-question tarot reading for only $15. 

My site also offers the opportunity to provide a donation in the amount of your choice to demonstrate your support for my blog and daily astrological insights on Twitter at: 

https://phoenixscorpio.blogspot.com/p/services-offered.html

 A contribution in any amount is deeply appreciated as gratitude is a daily part of my spiritual practice. If you prefer to send a donation through Venmo or pay for a reading through Venmo, my handle is Linda Simons @Linda-Simons-7.  Or you can send a contribution using Zelle and my phone number 617-304-2205.

Additionally, I am available for tarot readings by telephone.  I use the Celestial Tarot Deck, which I love because it contains so many astrological symbols.  A tarot reading is another great option for obtaining insight and clarity. I offer a 24-card tarot card reading for $50 which incorporates the twelve houses of the horoscope.

I am still experiencing technical difficulties with the Buy Now buttons on the Services Offered page of my site.  In the meantime, please feel free to send payments through PayPal to my email at lindasim54@gmail.com. Just let me know which type of consultation you want with your birth date info.  Or you can send a payment to my Venmo account at Linda Simons @Linda-Simons-7 or Zelle using my phone number 617-304-2205.

In 2020, I added a Monthly Horoscopes section to my website. December horoscopes are up now and I have a link to my monthly forecasts at Horoscope Junkie.  Check it out at:

I have also joined Facebook.  I don’t post as frequently as on Blue Sky Social, but I am on Facebook now at https://www.facebook.com/linda.simons.75098

The coronavirus outbreak caused me to increase the number of distant Reiki sessions I do because people were concerned about the spread of the infection. I have decided to suspend my in-person Reiki sessions until further notice, so all of my Reiki sessions will be distant Reiki sessions for the foreseeable future. But a distant Reiki session is the perfect opportunity to safely build up your immune system and if you have contracted coronavirus, you can be treated safely from the comfort of your home. My procedure is to have a conversation with a client about what they hope to achieve from a session, we set up a time for the session to take place when they will be in a state to receive healing energy and I follow up with a telephone conversation to discuss their experience and my perception of their blockages. I do miss seeing my clients, so I am now offering Zoom consultations/intakes before the session so that we can see each other. I have also incorporated a new technique with my distance Reiki treatments since I don’t always have a photo of my client.  I use a teddy bear so that I can scan and focus the healing energy where it is needed. If this appeals to you, please feel free to contact me by email at lindasim54@gmail.com or call me at 617-304-2205. The cost for distance Reiki sessions is based on a sliding scale of $30 -$50. For your convenience, I accept Venmo and Zelle for payment. Zelle payments can be sent using my telephone number 617-304-2205. I have also written an article about distance Reiki, which is available at:

I urge everyone to engage in massive amounts of self-care and follow the protective measures of washing your hands frequently, avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth, wearing a face mask when necessary and staying home if you are sick. And get a vaccine. The newest vaccine is available and I encourage you to get it to protect yourself. I repeat, you do not want to get this virus! I speak from personal experience and consider myself very fortunate to have survived Coronavirus twice. Stay safe and healthy, everyone!
