Moon moves into Taurus, picking up on Saturn and Venus’s recent arrival in Capricorn. Leaving behind the fiery intensity of Aries, in Taurus we find stable footing. And Saturn and Venus bring a much needed dose of earthy practicality. Is it real? Is it worth it?

The Moon is burning its way through Aries, stirring up passions and deep emotions as it rounds its way past Pluto and Uranus. With Mars and Jupiter in Scorpio, too, careful of volcanic tempers. Use this energy to release old rooted feelings productively.

We’re rounding out the year and getting deeper into the Capricorn groove. With Venus having just joined up with the Sun and Saturn, this week has a serious tone. We may be asking ourselves, what do we really want out of life?

Mercury turns direct today, shifting gears during a busy time of the year. If you’re traveling, give yourself extra time. Double check information, too. Turning direct in Sagittarius, we’re tying up loose ends from early December — loose ends around truth, faith, and what we believe to be right.

Happy solstice! Here in the northern hemisphere we mark the first day of winter, a time when the light returns after increasingly dark days. For our friends in the southern hemisphere, it’s the first day of summer. The light will begin its descent.

Last day of Sagittarius Season. We say goodbye to our annual trip through the sign of knowledge, travel, and exploration and get ready for the solstice. With Saturn now in Capricorn — a huge celestial change — all eyes are now on the sign of maturity and responsibility.

Here we are. Well, almost. Saturn doesn’t move into Capricorn until 11:49 pm EST / 8:49 pm PST. But we’re feeling it, we’re feeling the great hand on the clock moving into a new hour. And with Saturn in Capricorn, we’re going to get a reality check.

After three years in Sagittarius, the planet Saturn wraps up its long search for truth. There’s a seriousness is in the air, an anticipation. Saturn has tested our faith, has pushed us to find meaning in our lives. Now we graduate.

Moon moves into Scorpio, meeting up with Mars and Jupiter, two planets that have been teaching us a lot about power, secrets, and abuse. The Moon in Scorpio is a call for us to examine our own darkness, the part of us that we reject.
