A Super-Charged New Moon in Sagittarius, More Squares Between Sagittarius and Pisces Planets, and the Sun and Venus Enter Capricorn

 

We are by no means done with the squares between the planets in Sagittarius and Pisces.  Last week's square on December 14 between Mars in Sagittarius and Neptune in Pisces was downright lethal.  The themes of aggression, addiction and victimization prevailed as we heard news about the shootings at Brown University, Bondhi Beach and the tragic murders of Rob Reiner and his wife Michele Singer Reiner.

On December 13, Mars in Sagittarius was inconjunct Uranus in 28 degrees of Taurus. Mars and Uranus contacts are frequently associated with violence.  On that day I posted on Blue Sky Social:

Mars in Sagittarius is forming an irritating inconjunct with Uranus in Taurus today which can cause havoc and require that we make adjustments on the fly. Be prepared for unexpected events to occur… #astrology

I hate to say it, but having Neptune in 29 degrees of Pisces until January 26, 2026 is only going to trigger more of these themes.  Hopefully we can avoid more bloodshed, but Neptune in Pisces has a very dark side that just might rear its ugly head in the next few weeks.  But let us hope that it can also bring us a spiritual awakening by encouraging more compassion and dissolution of old illusions for a collective rebirth.

On December 19, we have the last New Moon of 2025: a New Moon in 28 degrees of Sagittarius. We are not escaping the tension of the squares with this New Moon: it squares both Saturn and Neptune in Pisces.  This can trigger old emotional insecurities, doubts and emphasizes boundary issue as well as providing a cold reality check.  The New Moon in Sagittarius squaring Neptune in Pisces can also bring more confusion. There is also the factor that the New Moon is inconjunct Uranus in 28 degrees of Taurus, adding to the unpredictability factor.

Relationships will be a big area of focus on this New Moon because it is also conjunct Venus in 23 degrees of Sagittarius. The Moon in Sagittarius is in mutual reception with Jupiter in 22 degrees of Cancer because both planets are in each other's signs, so this can function like a conjunction, which is a good thing.

This New Moon in Sagittarius has themes of restlessness, as well as a craving for adventure and joy.  It is time to break free of old patterns that have been holding us back since 2020.  It is very future oriented, so set those new intentions.  We might already be feeling the energy of 2026, which is bound to be a game changing year.

On December 20, the Sun in Sagittarius is squaring Neptune in Pisces.  This can weaken our vitality and our energy levels could be low on this day.  It can also lend a note of deception to personal relationships.  

Venus in Sagittarius is squaring Saturn in 25 degrees of Pisces on December 21.  This can bring stress to love and finances, as well as temporary feelings of loneliness and depression.  The Sun moves into Capricorn at 10:03 a.m. on the 21st, which shifts the focus to responsibility, ambition, realism and practicality.  It is time to buckle down to business and work hard.  It is also the first day of winter.

On December 24, Christmas Eve, Venus in Sagittarius is squaring Neptune in Pisces.  This aspect can be associated with poor self-image and we might be inclined to think we need to spend more money on gifts in order to be loved.  Self-discipline is definitely missing in action with this aspect in play.  It can be easier to be ripped off and addiction can surface too with Venus squaring Neptune.

Venus enters Capricorn at 11:26 a.m. on December 24 and remains there until January 17, 2026.  When Venus is in Capricorn, we tend to approach relationships and finances in a more practical and mature fashion.  We are taking relationships more seriously during this time.

On Christmas Day, December 25, the Moon is in Pisces, forming supportive sextiles to both the Sun and Mars in Capricorn.  Here's hoping that just maybe we can act in a more compassionate manner for the holiday.  I wish everyone a very peaceful and Merry Christmas.

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:
