02:33 – This week's theme is: The Throes of Passion! The three big things: First, a lot of chaotic energy is happening right now. Mars, Mercury, Venus, and asteroid Pallas Athene are out of bounds all week. Also, Venus and Mercury are opposite Mars in mutable signs, and they're all squaring Neptune! Will we hear wild news from the World Cup? Also, the Sun is parallel asteroid Aesculapia (associated with physicians and healing) – hopefully, we won't hear news of an injury! Venus is conjunct asteroid Hygeia (public hygiene, preserver of health).

 

07:12 – Second, Jupiter. Jupiter is the ruler of Sagittarius and is in its other home sign right now, Pisces. The biggest planet rules abundance and protects us from asteroids (thus, it is known as a protector). Jupiter makes everything bigger – good and bad. It rules law, morality, ethics, and philosophy. It's known for its big ideas and is associated with systems of belief, reckless behavior, and overindulgence. On the shadow side, it can be moralizing – like a know-it-all. It magnifies things. Mercury and Venus will square Jupiter this week. Mercury can show massive dexterity (like gymnast energy). Take time to enjoy cleverly woven stories and humor. Venus in Sagittarius squaring Jupiter in Pisces can bring excessive flattery, people waxing philosophical about love, overspending, and daredevil stuff (like bungee jumping). After the square, Mercury and Venus enter the earth sign of Capricorn and settle down.

 

11:44 – Third, we welcome a Full Moon at 16 Gemini on December 7! Look back to the solar eclipse from June 10, 2021, and the First Quarter Moon from March 10, 2022, for stories and themes that connect in your life. The Last Quarter in this Lunar Phase Family will be September 6, 2023. The Gemini/Sag is the axis of information. Secrets revealed. What ideas drove long-range goals during these times for you? Reflect on where you started and are now. Celebrate any wins. The Moon is conjunct Mars, so people may be extra fiery or verbally aggressive (like a catcalling energy)! The Gemini Moon is reporting into out-of-bounds Mercury; will we see crimes of passion? The folks in China rebelling against Covid lockdowns reflect this. Also, Venus is parallel Facies, a fixed star at 8 Capricorn. This star's nature is extreme intensity and is the eye of the archer, with penetrating vision.

 

17:39 – On Sunday, the theme is CALM. Keep calm and carry on. The Moon enters Taurus at 3:36 am PT.

 

19:00 – On Monday, the word of the day is FISHY. Do not believe everything you hear. People may state opinions presented as the truth.

 

19:29 – Tuesday's focus is REALISTIC. Keep focused on the essentials. The Moon enters Gemini at 12:48 pm PT. Mercury enters Capricorn at 2:08 pm PT.

 

20:20 – On Wednesday, the word is SPECTACLE. The circus comes to town. Are you in the clown car or viewing from the street? The Full Moon is at 16 Gemini at 8:08 pm PT.

 

21:45 – On Thursday, the theme is CHATTER. Spoiler alert, the water cooler may buzz with what happened in the finale. Watch the show or close your ears. The Moon enters Cancer at 11:48 pm PT.

 

22:47 – On Friday, the emphasis is DISCIPLINE. Watch out for overspending and overindulgence. Venus enters Capricorn at 7:54 pm PT.

 

23:58 – On Saturday, the word is HUMDRUM. If you feel a bit deflated or bored. It is natural.
