Astrology for 12/28/2023

As we come to the end of the year, we are also coming to a major beginning in January 2024. The powers of the stars are set on endings and beginnings and taking us with them. It is okay. It is time. And most of us are more than ready.
Today, the Moon goes into Leo this evening but in the meantime, we are finishing up our pattern with the Moon in family focused Cancer. Take that last bit of time to work with those you love in ways that will allow for deeper connection and appreciation.
This evening with the Leo Moon we can get back to ourselves a bit more and reclaim our own routine. That can be a delicious feeling.
Neptune is at its ending of degrees in Pisces. This very long transit since 2012 has stirred up many emotions and brought us to a new level of right brained/left brained balance. For many this has been a long and arduous road. But for those with sensitivities to the artistic and intuitive realms, it has blasted open doors and shows us a way to be more fully alive, and artistically creative.
Mars will square to Neptune so expect to feel that continued struggle with focus. Just know it is not just you. Everyone is feeling this in various ways. These planets pull us back and forth and cause us to feel off center and out of balance. Remember, it is temporary. Even keeping our energy going is challenging. Motivation and inspiration are caught in waves of personal overwhelm and deep soul exhaustion. Notice those small windows and doors that manage to inspire. Recognize that currently we all have to take more than a few moments to ourselves. Whether we like it or not, we have to admit that we have a few limits and so drawing the line is going to be necessary but cope with many situations.
It will feel as if there is no easy way, so we are going to have to keep going even though it is difficult.
Venus and Pluto will sextile and this can give us a deeper insight into what we want, why we love, and those things that we need more than anything.
Stay positive, know that being authentic is calming for everyone around you. There is no need to add more negative energy into already tense situations.
