Horoscope for the Week: December 2 - 9, 2011

Tip of the Week:

The last month of the year is here! 2011 sure has been eventful and the momentum continues. Soon the much prophesied 2012 begins. That it encompasses the Year of the Water Dragon will be getting a lot of press soon. Yet we are still in Sagittarius time, the 9th Sign of the Zodiac symbolic of completions and graduations.

Another interesting fact is that December is the 10th month from March, the month of Spring. 'Dec' as with December is linked to the number 10. In any sign of 30 degrees, there are 3 Decants each comprised of 10 degrees. So, there is rhyme and reason behind the names of the months linked to both the 12 Signs of the Zodiac and the 12 months of the year, all in alignment with the solar cycle which ends and begins at Winter Solstice. Amidst the more current tradition of Christmas, the much older and natural focus upon Winter Solstice is steadily on the rise. Stay tuned for events and gatherings close to your home. Even a candle lit on that day, December 21st, which is a Wednesday this year, can activate your alignment with the Sun cycle.

Each New Moon observes a new cycle of the Sun and Moon. Last week’s Solar Eclipse seed is waxing towards a Full Moon Lunar Eclipse on December 10th. So, the year is going out with more of a bang than a fizzle. Mercury currently Retrograde, navigating its tricky turns, is part of the plot. Uranus hovering at 0 Aries since November 12 where it will remain until January 8th is the biggest general factor we are all contending with right now. 0 Aries archetypally = the rising sun at dawn, 6 am and Spring Equinox. In simpler terms, this indicates powerful new beginnings. The last time Uranus officially entered Aries was March 11th, 2011 – a fine example of Astrological synchronicity, though tragic and sad unfortunately in this case. Of course, I am referring to the devastating tsunami that struck Japan on that eventful day.

A lot of people pointed at Comet Elenin as the cause while others looked to more official sources. Of course, Japan is directly on a section of the great Pacific Rim plate tectonic fault line. However one might determine the whys for this event, it did certainly synchronize with Uranus officially re-entering Aries on that exact day, in the Tropical Zodiac. That many Japanese people remain homeless and devastated and the nuclear power plant in Fukushima has not yet been fully contained, according to less 'official' reports, tells us that many major global issues sparked in 2011 remain and will carry forward into 2012. Rest as you can and tune-in; a ‘new race’ is about to begin!

Aries (Mar 21 – Apr 20)

Sometimes it is harder to see the forest for the trees or the reverse. This may be one of them leading you to achieve more tangible answers. Beyond information you want a plan of action and the tools to make it so. Yet, the plan may require a larger vision, which, in turn, requires bigger commitments. An outline of the next 3 years or 5 might suffice.

 

Taurus (Apr 20 – May 21)

You are poised to expand somehow. Unless you are pregnant, an increased waist size is probably not your goal. In fact, the answer may be to downsize, consolidate and/or restructure. Some inspiration woven with practicality to design a more efficient flow is on your mind. Above all, it is habitual thoughts, perceptions and behaviour patterns that may be in the way.

 

Gemini (May 21 – Jun 21)

Some noticeable changes on relationship fronts are rolling in. Digging deep to access reserves of faith is implied. Opening yourself to new considerations regarding love, fun, play and romance will help. To co-create a brighter future may require that you initiate new connections. Reach out to new networks and clubs, especially those you can enjoy in-person.

 

Cancer (Jun 21 – Jul 22)

Healing rifts, divisions, contradictions and fragmentations is the call now. Tending to these within more than with others, at least initially, is ideal. Choose to be your own best friend, consciously forgive yourself if you feel guilty or ashamed. Meditate more and do what you say and say what you do. These are some examples of how to do it.

 

Leo (Jul 22 – Aug 23)

To achieve your creative goals your current challenge is to steady your focus. This is not the same as dig in your heels. Get clear on your objectives. Acknowledge fears, request feedback from others, think twice and cut once, yet follow through. The time has come to expand your position in the world. Calculated risks and investments are in order.

 

Virgo (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Shifts and changes close to home are part of a new norm. There is reason to believe that these are very good changes. A creative cycle is implied. This may include a review & consolidation of past efforts, successes and/or completions of projects and activities that have been on the shelf. Be willing to put in the time to advance to the next level.

 

Libra (Sep 22 – Oct 22)

You are beginning to grow new wings. As eager as you may be to try them out, you may feel uncertain about how to fly. Yet, you feel determined and are committed. Creating a new kind of beauty, comfort and/or functionality close to home is featured. As ever clearing within to experience a smother flow without is the call, slowly but surely.

 

Scorpio (Oct 22 – Nov 21)

Life often includes changing fortunes and this theme is active now. To shift to the positive end of this you may have to address some crystallized attitudes, beliefs, perceptions and self-concepts. Being open to learning new creative skills may be just a shift of your focus, or two, away. Be willing to let go of the old, even if gradually. Take new leads; try new angles.

                     

Sagittarius (Nov 21 – Dec 21)

Getting clear on your goals and ideals and actualizing them with action is the call now. All the great ideas, truths and moral/ethical standards in the world are empty without follow through. Be willing to give more and differently to situations. Realistic achievement of your goals means taking one sure step at a time. Perhaps save the leaps and bounds for spring time.

 

Capricorn (Dec 21 – Jan 19)

Heeding the guidance of your inner counsel continues. The time has come to make a few refinements. This may require that you take new leads. Yet timing is of the essence and this may not be it. So, how can you improve, adjust and build confidence in the meantime? Vanquishing any doubt demons is one measure. It may be time to tuck in while the crowds are nipping out.

 

Aquarius (Jan 19 – Feb 19)

Some shifts and changes among friends, associates and/or at work are prompting some adjustments. New thoughts, ideas and visions of the possibilities are being activated. Taking steps and measures to feel more confident is featured. Be willing to learn, gather new tools and do your homework now, so you are prepared for in-coming opportunities soon.

 

Pisces (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

Changes and opportunities in you public and professional life continue to roll in. To meet them you are wise to review previous successes and tend to your professional image. The review part implies making sure that any leaks, malfunctions, conflicts and inequities are repaired and resolved. Now is the time to prepare because the pace will quicken again soon.
