December 2023

Beautiful Venus is in the sign of Scorpio asking you to focus on your most important hopes, dreams, wishes, and goals. You will know what these are although you have to remain patient because you may feel a lot more tired and sluggish this month for a variety of reasons. Mercury is going retrograde in your sign starting on December 13th (but in it's shadow of doing so from the 1st) and the Sun and Mars (the planet of energy) in the sign of Sagittarius (which is the sign before yours which always makes you feel more comfortably dreamy then you feel like actually physically doing anything). That's all perfectly okay Capricorn. You've worked hard all year long. This IS your time for a comfortable vacation (or staycation at home). You'll do what you 'have' to do (hoping that you don't have to do much). You'll do just fine when it comes to your own interests and hobbies, but don't push yourself too much. This is your time to rest, heal, relax, rejuvenate and sleep a bit more. Cat naps were created for times such as this. You don't need to prove yourself to anyone. In fact, if you push yourself too hard you could trip over your own shoe laces and hurt yourself. Mercury retrograde in your sign has your mind/brain wanting to take a nap too and just dream all day. Your energy will pick up a bit once the Sun moves into your sign on December 21st and onwards (even though Mars - the planet of energy - won't move into your sign until January 4th 2024). Before the Sun moves into your sign, let's go back to December 12th when the New Moon in Sagittarius arrives at 6:32 pm ET. This New Moon in Sagittarius can help you put your past into the past. Your desire to release and finally let go of any past experiences that have emotionally wounded you will subconsciously take place. Instead of emotional wounds you will begin to feel a stronger sense of understanding and wisdom. You'll finally begin to know why those experiences took place and what you've wisely learned from them. Your own psychic senses are beginning to become more keen. You should enjoy that, because instead of thinking (overthinking) of solutions to your problems you can close your eyes and meditate (or sleep) for the inspiring solutions to flow directly to you. You may desire for yourself to get a lot more accomplished than you are able to do, yes you are moving slower but it's important that you do; until the Sun moves into your sign on December 21st - bringing in our new Winter Season above the equator. While others desire to hibernate it will be you that will begin to get some of your energy back. Your mind will feel a bit clearer once Mercury moves back into the sign of Sagittarius starting on December 23rd. If you're wondering if you will feel more alert and awake, more able to joyfully participate in Christmas festivities this year...the answer is Yes! You may need a long sleep afterwards, but you'll do just great and have fun too! On December 26th at 7:33 pm ET the Full Moon in Cancer arrives shining her bright light into the area of your life that has to do with your most personal relationships! This is an excellent evening for you to feel a deep attitude of gratitude for those people in your life who mean the most to your heart. When you truly appreciate them they appreciate you too. On this evening you can reach out and show them that you do have a kind tender heart that truly does love them. As the New Year of 2024 approaches, quite quickly too, you can focus your thoughts upon your grandest hopes, dreams, wishes and goals coming true for you in the near future! In many ways the year of 2024 will be so much better for you than the past 4 years have been. Get ready...do the count down...grab someone special close to you and say, "Happy New Year!"

With love & light,
