Entry: Thursday December 17th at 1:26am EST / 6:26am UTC.

Departure: Friday December 19th at 7:38am EST / 12:38pm UTC.

Moon in Aquarius: Peregrine. Without any essential dignity and not supported by a sectmate. The Mood is generally less stable. In Aquarius, humanitarianism and ideals come to the fore. Self-growth and personal development for the greater good is a theme here. Your own thought processes and emotional needs may become harder to access as they are eclipsed by other bigger picture considerations which privilege the whole over any individual part

Triplicity and Quadruplicity: Fixed Air. Fixedness indicates prolonged activities and an overall steadiness inpeople’s moods. The Moon in fixed signs makes activities more stable and their duration longer. The air element promotes mental stimulation and any activities which involve communication and language, and an air moon tends to be very chatty and conversational, prefer discussion and the medium of language to anything else.

Moon’s ruler: The Moon is averse to her ruler Saturn, but this is offset by the homozonias or like-engirding relationship they have in virtue of being in signs of the same rulership. This is like a hidden support, where the Moon’s significations are grounded and carried through but in expected, perhaps secret ways. Some writers describe the like-engirding relationship in terms of an opposition.

Relationship to the Sun: The Moon forms an Inferior Sextile to the Sun in Sagittarius. We begin a new series of aspects to the sun. There is a new influx of flow and harmony between people and their environments. Things will happen naturally and with ease, without any major obstacles or blockages coming to get in the way.

Aspects

  • Inferior fixed square to Mercury in Scorpio. Communication can flow freely if initial tension is resolved. You may find words getting stuck in your throat, and people being slightly more disagreeable with each other as well.

  • Inferior fixed square to Venus in Scorpio. Last Period’s sextile has hardened into a square. Interpersonal interactions and relationships will be tenser and coupled with more troubles. People will give each other the cold shoulder and be less inclinded towards politeness. However, If these issues are confronted, they can turn into warmer interactions and a source of help.

  • Superior Sextile to Mars in Aries. The square has eased into a sextile. Moderate support from Mars - more initiative and drive to accomplish things and make things happen. Small potential for irritability and frustrating circumstances, but the least likely of all the aspects the Moon can make with Mars.

Summary: No great social change comes without great resistance, and that will be especialy prominent the next few days as the Moon occupies the sign of Aquarius. There is a lot of potential for productivity and long-lasting results this period, but the squares from the Sun, Venus, and Mercury will make you work for it. Like all Aquarius periods, this is an excellent time to dream, plan, and think about the future. However, Mars provides some reliable fuel to fill your goals with passion and zeal, as he has done for every Aquarius period since July. You may find yourself and those around you with greater amounts of inspiration to move your lives forward in big ways, However, you may also find consistent obstacles arising that slow you down and make it difficult as well. This is a great period to make plans that you would like to carry with you for a good long while, but you will have to push in order for them to come to be anything besides a pipe dream.
