Overview

December 26th delivers the game-changers. Mars conjoins the Pisces South Node, releasing an issue whose time has come. Anger, passion or intensified idealism can trigger actions that stir the waters of the past. The water could be contaminated or pure, but the Capricorn Sun’s trine to the Virgo North Node suggests significant improvement, if you sort the illusions from the facts. The opposition between Jupiter in Libra and Uranus Rx in Aries also perfects on this day, adding sudden, strong reversals or culminations. There could be a lucky break, or a break with the past. Either way, it’s all about the future, which supports the North Node path. 

There are a plethora of influences around the Capricorn New Moon.

December 27th sees a sextile between the Sun and Mars, which feeds into the Sun’s conjunction with Mercury Rx on December 28th, and Mercury’s sextile to Mars. On December 29th, we have the New Moon in Capricorn, which conjoins Mercury Rx and makes a sextile to Mars. Mercury Rx’s reviews or delays will clarify something, and this information will result in a new beginning. Mars adds a gentle push – it will be appropriate to act, but Mercury’s continuing Rx means the whole story is yet to be revealed. Respond accordingly. 

A square between Saturn in Sagittarius and Chiron (Wounded Healer) in Pisces, on December 28th, means there’s going to be some discomfort. Where you can’t go, or what you must do, will hurt. There’s no getting around this one, but it’s part of the New Moon’s influences, so keep your eye on that new beginning. Uranus direct in Aries on December 29th says there will be progress, no matter what happens. It could be that Jupiter’s big push was necessary to get the ball rolling.

A Mars/Neptune conjunction greets the New Year, on January 1st. The Mars/South Node activation can lead to a moment of pure magic, passionate dreams, or dissolution. 

Aries

Mars/the Sun aspecting the Nodes can release a secret or unforeseen issue. What’sunseen or ignored will be placed in the context of your daily reality, and it should be easy for you to work with. Watch for positive developments in health or career, as you integrate routines with bigger goals. Jupiter opposite Uranus Rx in your sign can accelerate a relationship – whether you’re moving forward together or apart, mutual freedom will be the issue.

The New Moon and Mercury Rx in your career sector spotlight a past job, discussion with management or detail about your professional image. Reviewing goals, status or contributions has led to this moment – there may be talk of a job offer or change in your current position. Too, plans for your future (job search, career change, business launch) may be falling into place. Uranus direct in your sign indicates this is a crucial part of your forward momentum, and you’ll feel some urgency. But Mercury Rx indicates things are still in flux – details may change before Mercury stations direct. Saturn/Chiron will trigger an unacknowledged weakness, as new professional goals/developments leave you feeling exposed or unprepared. This will be an opportunity to confront something you’ve been avoiding. 

Mars/Neptune in your hidden sector can fuel a fantasy, push you to fight for a ideal, or dilute your ambitions. Much depends on how you handle what’s undefined. 

Taurus

Mars/the Sun aspecting the Nodes will draw your attention to a friendship, public issue or public cause. There may be familiar tension with someone (even if you’ve just met) with the connection challenging you in unusual ways. The desire to protest, rally or fight may be pronounced, as an ideal fires you up. Too, a public launch or performance could be featured. Jupiter/Uranus Rx amplify the feeling of excitement, and your urge to make a dramatic change in work or health routines. For some, there may be an unexpected job opportunity.

The New Moon and Mercury Rx in your sector of opportunities reveals details about where you’re going and what you’re exploring. A pause and shift in travel plans, education, legal matters or publishing could be featured, or a reevaluation of how you’ve been expressing your ideas. Uranus direct in your hidden sector suggests another piece of the puzzle falling into place, giving you insight on your next step. You may not be able to prove what you’re feeling, but trust your gut. Saturn/Chiron mix in painful realizations about money, debt or the status of an intimate relationship. 

Mars/Neptune in your social sector add empathy and magic to what Mars over the South Node triggered. Too, you may find yourself wandering far from the original path. Check your actions carefully, because a misstep will have public consequences. On the other hand, correct action can easily create positive ripples in many people’s lives. It’s a question of intentions – are yours aimed at benefiting others?

Gemini

Mars/the Sun aspecting the Nodes bring a career issue, or issue with management, to a peak. It may be time to step away from what you can no longer control, or redirect your ambition.

The New Moon and Mercury Rx in your sector of shared resources reveal facts about debts, taxes, loans, your partner’s finances or physical/emotional intimacy.

Uranus direct in your social sector suggests private developments will be linked with public progress or consequences. Saturn/Chiron brings the tension between work and personal life to a head. Mutual goals will need to adjusted, as insecurities about success, accomplishment and status reveal sore spots. 

Mars/Neptune in your career sector can make you feel like you’re fighting a losing battle, or show you that it’s time to release and relax.

Cancer

Mars/the Sun aspecting the Nodes suggests a move towards graduation, or escape. Legal and ethical matters may be stirred up, or travel/relocation could be featured. The outcome hints at big plans, long- distance issues or idealistic philosophies being translated into immediate concerns. There may be an official statement or verbal/written commitment, along with a need for you put it into words. Jupiter/Uranus can present some surprises with home and family – watch for a sudden culmination involving relocation, home expansion, or new future goals. 

The New Moon and Mercury Rx in your partnership sector hi-lights an important discovery or conversation. The issue may be old (or you may reconnect with someone from the past) but the clarity will gift you with new insight about where you and another are heading. Uranus direct in your career sector suggests these new developments will include an acceleration in future plans, or a complete break from tradition. Saturn/Chiron suggests increased pressure and anxiety around health, work routines or obligations. 

Mars/Neptune in your sector of opportunities can urge you to shoot for distant horizons and elevated adventures, but make sure what you’re charging towards is not all in your head. Exploration, travel or reaching a wider audience are also suggested – use a reliable map (literally and metaphorically), because you’re heading into uncharted waters. 

Leo

Mars/the Sun activating the Nodes suggests a turning point involving debts, taxes, loans, your partner’s finances or physical/emotional intimacy.

Mars/Neptune in your sector of shared resources can dissolve your sense of control, your willpower or anger. This aspect could also make it very clear that you can’t influence another, so it’s best to concentrate on what you do have control over (your behaviour). Use caution with all financial scenarios, especially where debts are involved. 

Virgo

Mars over the South Node (in your partnership sector) and the Sun trining the North Node in your sign brings a relationship issue to a head.

The New Moon and Mercury Rx in your sector of self-expression give you fresh information about a new attraction, creative project or issue involving children/pregnancy.

Libra

Mars/Neptune in your sector of routine can be a time to let go of unbalanced behaviour that puts your self-care last, on your list of priorities. A problem or extra obligation may fade, without any effort on your part. Or, you may be confronted with something that you’ve let slide.  

Scorpio

Sagittarius

Mars/the Sun aspecting the Nodes signal a tipping point in a home/family scenario. A simmering domestic dispute can erupt, as can family history. Take note of where you’re directing your energy – towards the past or future? Anything that is stirred up also holds the potential to propel you forward, as you release ties to undermining habits or childhood roles, and construct a new reality for yourself. Jupiter/Uranus Rx add encouragement with a surprising opportunity to go public, break new ground, promote yourself or celebrate a new version of yourself (rather than following old scripts). 

The New Moon and Mercury Rx in your sector of personal resources give you more information about earned money, self-esteem and personal values.

Aquarius

Mars/the Sun aspecting the Nodes signals release and forward movement for a financial or self-esteem issue. This may be an “enough’s enough” moment, where anger, frustration or a desire to move on help you leave behind undermining attitudes/habits. The old approach to money and security is no longer working for you, so use this push to activate something different. You may be encouraged to trust more, let go of anxieties, get closer to someone or put your energy into something that has value only you can see. A shift in how you earn or invest may be featured.

Triggers will be related to friends, group associations or your public status/authority. 

Mars/Neptune in your sector of personal resources can see you pursuing a new source of income that’s more creative, or more closely aligns with what you really want to do. Income can expand under the right conditions, but if you’re careless with your spending/saving, you can end up hemorrhaging money.  

Pisces

Mars conjoins the South Node in your sign, and the Sun trines the North Node in your partnership sector. A key moment of anger, frustration, idealism or initiative may be featured. You could feel a push to go for it, or assert yourself. Follow that urge, because it can lead to a quality connection with someone special. The one-on-one relationship may be romantic, or simply a close friendship/valuable business partner. If there’s an ending, know that it’s probably the best thing for you. Jupiter/Uranus Rx deliver intensity, with a surprising surge of passion, or an abrupt shift in a financial or partnership situation. Events can deepen dramatically, and you’ll discover that you havemore to gain or lose than you realized. 

The New Moon and Mercury Rx in your social sector spotlight a friendship, group activity or your place in the public. Reconnecting with someone from the past can open a new door. Reevaluating your connections, or reconsidering public plans/an announcement can shed light on some interesting truths. The sextile to Mars in your sign encourages you to step forward and respond calmly. Uranus direct in your sector of personal resources accelerates a change in income, or desire to break away from invalid personal values. Saturn square Chiron in your sign suggests a difficult career situation – the steady increase in pressure to find a job, responsibilities in your job, or overall dissatisfaction with your work, can push you to a crisis moment. Something has to give. 

Mars/Neptune in your sign gift you with a surge of inspiration, or the initiative to go as far as you can. The dream is fired up, but if you’re unhappy or in escapist mode, this energy can trigger disillusionment. Your actions will quickly propel you down a certain path – make sure it’s the right one.
