Astrology for 12/18/2023

The Moon in Pisces asks us to pay attention to the subtle messages coming in from many places. See this as a journey that your emotions need to navigate to find release for them to make sense in this world.
Emotions are meant to move. Too often we allow our mind to interrupt them, and they can get stuck in our gut and give us digestive problems, or they can get stuck in our craw (throat) and give us laryngitis, throat swallowing problems and an inability to speak up for ourselves.
They can also get stuck in our mind, and this is where we cannot get our mind to quiet down, and we go into monkey mind. The restlessness of our unexpressed emotions tear into our mind like a tsunami and can breakdown what we thought we knew … causing anxiety, anger, and confusion. That is because the mind wants things to make sense. But life is strange in that we can get a trigger that unleashes a pattern of feeling that we were not expecting.
That is why today, being kind and patient to oneself and others is the easiest path ahead.
Know that there is plenty happening in the world and it all seems to want to get under our skin. But since we are being tested, it is good to realize that we can turn restlessness into progress. And we can turn fear into curiosity.
The Mercury retrograde is inching back up on the trine to Jupiter. That will be exact on January 19^th. This is right before Pluto goes into Aquarius on January 20^th. Seems many things are going to change in our perspective between now and then. As this trine unrolls, it should feel more optimistic. We have more faith in the future, and we see the underlying meaning of certain circumstances.
There is also a quintile between Venus and Pluto. It allows us to feel better about our finances and those we interact with in our life.
With the Moon squaring to Mars this evening, just know that it is the perfect time to get your hands working on a project. It will help you feel as if you are putting all this energy to good work.
