Astro Overview for December

We are in front of a very important month, marked by the last of the three Saturn-Uranus squares that largely dictated the astral atmosphere of 2021. As always, December also brings the winter solstice, the Sun’s ingress in Capricorn. On December 19th Venus turns retrograde for a about a month and a half, until late January 2022, while Jupiter leaves Aquarius and enters Pisces on the morning of December 29.

This month also brings us the ingress, on the same day, of Mars in Sagittarius and Mercury in Capricorn. Thus, December is full of surprises and invites us to combine the seriousness and sobriety of Capricorn with enough openness to original solutions and perspectives. We need to keep this attitude so that we do not get stuck in a past that simply no longer works for us and for the whole humanity. Let’s follow the main astral events of December!

New Moon in Sagittarius: new beginnings on a collective level

On December 4, we celebrate the New Moon in Sagittarius, a moment that invites us to plan our future, to think about what we would like to achieve and become next. Idealism reaches high levels, but also our moralizing tendencies. We are looking for new solutions that are in line with fundamental values and that can be applied fairly on a large scale. It is possible to witness some enthusiastic and energetic mass movements in the name of faith and universal truth.

Mercury (Sagittarius) square Neptune (Pisces): visionary and idealistic thinking

On December 7, the Mercury-Neptune sqaure is exact. Thinking and imagination might combine in the form of insights that are difficult to express in words. Although it can be hard for us to pay attention to details, this energy helps us to grasp the essentials, to understand symbols and codes. A large volume of abstract data can be compressed in the form of ingenious synthesis. AstroFidelia recommends not to exaggerate subjective impressions.

Mars (Scorpio) square Jupiter (Aquarius): heroic actions in the name of truth

Around December 8, it is good to pay attention to how we manage our energy. We are capable of broad, altruistic gestures, but we can also lose our self-control and burst into flames if we seize injustice around us. On the other hand, if we fight for the right causes, we can discover in ourselves amazing reserves of courage and psychic resistance. Thus, we can act incisively and subtley in matters that affect society on a large scale.

Sun (Sagittarius) square Neptune (Pisces): becoming aware of our spirituality

On December 12, the Sun reaches a hard aspect with Neptune. Although some dislusionment may occur through important male figures in our lives, the Sun-Neptune dialogue stimulates our spiritual growth. It is easier to make some sacrifices in the name of universal truth and love. We become aware of our invisible connections with all humanity. Nevertheless, is good to avoid running away from reality and all sorts of ilusions.

Mars in Sagittarius: the courage to explore new teritory

With Mars in Sagittarius starting December 13, much of our energy is directed towards confronting certain tests of confidence and faith. We need to defend our principles and to find the meaning of our experiences. We are heading with more nonchalance towards faraway places and people who live by different rules than we do. We defend our right for free movement. We can also do this through debates, studies, research: our minds bear no restrictions.

Mercury in Capricorn: thoroughly structured mind

On December 13, we also celebrate Mercury’s ingress into Capricorn. From this moment on, our thinking processes becomes more sober, efficient and pragmatic. We need to build complex reasonings starting from practical goals. AstroFidelia recommends asking ourselves what we want to materialize in our lives, and then patiently organize our ideas that will take us in those directions. We bear the responsibility of our own words and thoughts.

Venus retrogradă în Capricorn: revizii la nivel de relaţii şi finanţe

Between December 19 - January 29, Venus will retrograde through Capricorn. The period brings us the opportunity to clarify some aspects related to relationships and material resources. Some of them may concern our business affairs with public institutions or authorities, but also with older people, who have dictated so far our team rules. With Venus retrograde, we seek to balance within ourselves the way we exchange energy with other people.

The winter solstice – Sun in Capricorn: individual integrity and responsibility

With the Sun in Capricorn, we adopt a more mature, patient and realistic attitude. We discover that efforts strengthen us, that perseverance leads us to important, lasting results, that aging often means wisdom. We become more melancholic and reflect on the impact of time on our individual evolution. Our trust in ourselves grows as we gain respect for staying upright and responsible.

Saturn (Aquarius) square Uranus (Taurus): inevitable, but controlled progress

On Christmas Eve, we celebrate the last of the three Saturn-Uranus squares that accompanied this year. This is the final stage of the construction that these planets have built during 2021. Its effects will last for long from now on. On a personal and collective level, AstroFidelia recommends asking ourselves what fundamental changes are taking place, and how we relate now to ideas such as authority, freedom, progress, group effort.

Venus retrograde conjunct Pluto (Capricorn): revealed secrets

Around December 25, hidden issues related to love or financial situations may come to the surface. These lead us to powerful transformations in relationships and material security. Although we are more socially withdrawn and we can experience some moments of blockage and pesimism, important alchemies are taking place within us. Unsual events may occur in the public system as well.

Jupiter in Pisces: collective empathy and spirituality

Between December 29, 2021- May 11, 2022 and October 28 – December 20, 2022, Jupiter will transit Pisces. These periods are marked by sensitivity and a general orientation towards art, spirituality, faith. We can witness a collective healing process by maintaining a high inner refinement and idealism. However, it is also good to pay attention to the danger of falling prey to illusions and victimization. We need to set healthy boundaries and to reject false spirituality.

Mars (Sagittarius) sextile Saturn (Aquarius): boldness and robustness

At the end of December, Mars and Saturn form a harmonious aspect that helps us take thorough initiatives. It is advisable to be as well organized as possible, in order to carry out complex activities. Humor, good will and enthusiasm towards new adventures and challenges are accompanied by realism. On New Year’s Eve, this aspect invites us to set bold long-term goals for the future.

The last month of the year is therefore full of surprises and dynamic astral events. It is also a moment of assessment of the changes already begun, that need to be carried on in the following year. Venus retrograde gives us time to put our relationships and financial strategies in order. Meanwhile, the Saturn-Uranus square highlights how much we have matured so far as individuals and participants in society. Throughout 2022 we need to continue this major reconfiguration process.
