From December 22nd to the 31st there is a somber tone hanging over even joyful occasions. Opportunities to gain understanding as well as progress on worldly projects is available now; the trick to obtaining lasting progress is to be proportional with the current reality.
22nd – Monday – Venus Semi-square Saturn – Real love can only blossom when we overcome our fears. We are whining up an old pattern now; we have reached the last moment for getting away with the same old tricks. The brave let go of the past when overcoming worries.
23rd – Tuesday – Saturn enter Sagittarius – Freedom is calling us and we need to be willing to let go of the restrains of the past. Chronic difficulties can wear us down to the point that we give up; let the possibilities of a new way of being inspire us.
24th – Wednesday – Sun Parallel Venus, Mercury Square Uranus – Love and anger are both present. What will we chose to express? The problem is we have brilliant ideas which can’t easily be communicated. Some things need to be kept to ourselves for the moment.
25th – Thursday – Mercury Conjunct Pluto – We can look deep into the inner working of things around us to which we place importance. To use our time wisely we need to be able to put our need for material gain in perspective. How can we manifest our heart’s true desire? To answer this question is to overcome our personal demon.
26th – Friday – Mercury Semi-square Saturn, Venus Semi-square Neptune, Sun Sextile Neptune – Through all our current struggles we either assert our ideals or jump into fantasy. This is a time of character building. Expression of compassion allows the goodness of the universe to touch ground.
27th – Saturday – We tend toward a pleasant yet unfocused mode of being today. This is not necessarily wrong. so much has just happened it makes some sense or logic to just spend time relaxing and meditating. We have to digest current experiences.
28th – Sunday – Venus Quincunx Jupiter, Mercury Semi-sextile Mars, Sun Sesquiquadrate Jupiter – Right now the big difficulty is to clearly focus our attention in the right manner. We can easily feel so confident the we over shoot out goals. this can be like staying at the gambling table and to keep rolling double or nothing until we lose. If we are smart, we know when to quit.
29th – Monday – Mercury Semi-square Neptune – We may actually imagine things from our past that never happened or we may distort real events. Why is this happening? Because the need to see the beautiful in everyday life or the need for self justification can find unconscious shortcuts through escapist fantasy. Drink in the good from the higher inspiration and let go of the rest.
30th – Tuesday – Mercury Quincunx Jupiter – Take everything that everyone says to you now with ” a grain of salt”. “Slow and steady wins the day” as the saying goes. Keep your own counsel and trust only the people who have proven their value in the past.
31st – Wednesday – 2014 ends in a happy but relatively low key way. Peaceful acceptance is the way to avoid conflict and enjoy people and the uniqueness of the moment.
