MONDAY, December 8 – SUNDAY, December 14
Hello!
I’m not known for making pretty pictures out of dark materials, although I do try to find the purpose in them. And so it is this coming week. There’s really no way to turn a Mars square Saturn and Neptune, an opposition from Mercury to Uranus and Neptune’s turning stationary-direct into Botticelli’s Primavera. It is what it is, not a pretty picture.
I’ve addressed this in all your forecasts, pointing out ways to get around potholes of various shapes and sizes. With Neptune at its strongest, we are all vulnerable to making missteps and confusing fantasy with fact. And with Saturn in pride of place too, it’s a case of putting duty before pleasure and not stepping out of line.
The Mercury-Uranus opposition is equally significant. This is the third time these two have opposed each other – the first was on 29 October, the second (Mercury in retrograde), 19 November, and now on Wednesday. So, events at these times may well be linked. As with all Mercury-Uranus combos, awakenings of one sort or another are likely, whether we suddenly realize expenditure has outstripped income or that we no longer have feelings for someone. And as far as the global picture is concerned, this astro-cocktail is particularly dangerous because misinterpreting signals can have deadly consequences.
In my Friday Bite, I talk about the backstory to America’s stance on the Russia-Ukraine conflict, which is currently at a tipping point. The end of the war, what happens to Ukraine and the future of NATO are all being decided at this point in time.
Stay alert but always hopeful !
