• Lunar position ~ Libra – Now that the Moon is in Libra, you may want to surround yourself with those you love, but only do so if it can be done safely. Otherwise, organize a gathering online to check in with family and friends. Your sensitive and intuitive nature may be just what others need to consider an alternate viewpoint (Moon Opposite Chiron R). Refer to the current Esoteric Influences for more information regarding today’s influences.
• Significant Aspects that may inspire or inform magickal workings: (Refer to the Nodes for further aspects)
  • Both 3 and 4 Point Stelliums (power interactions) between Jupiter, Saturn, Pluto, and Pallas are still in effect. (check out 4 Stelliums to Consider for further information)
  • Sun (9th/Sagittarius) conjunct Vulcan (9th/Sagittarius) – suggests the courage to find your own spiritual path
  • Sun (9th/Sagittarius) trine Mars (1st/Aries) – involves expressions of self-confidence and goal achievement
  • Sun (9th/Sagittarius) square Neptune (1st/Pisces) – insecurity leading to martyr-like behavior
  • Sun (9th/Sagittarius) conjunct the Midheaven (10th/Sagittarius) – involves legacy and career choice
  • Jupiter (12th/Capricorn) conjunct Saturn (12th/Capricorn) – the balance between personal life and expanding career potential
  • Jupiter (12th/Capricorn) conjunct Pluto (12th Hs/Capricorn) – enthusiasm in balance with ego expression
  • Jupiter (12th/Capricorn) conjunct Pallas (12th/Capricorn) – involves maximizing a strategic approach and manifesting from a higher perspective
• Polarity – Masculine (13), Feminine (10) – projective energy is strongest today
• Elemental Influence ~ Fire (will, creativity) provides the strongest influence today with Air, Water and Earth expressing more of a balance with each other while having a lesser impact.
• Energetic Quality/Mode ~ Mutable (flexible, adaptable) sign energies have the strongest impact today although Cardinal (motivation) is increasing.
• Rays ~ The The 6th Ray of devotion and idealism has overtaken all other Rays signaling the ability to inspire others. That said, it also suggests the tendency toward rigidity and fanaticism in that regard. Typically, the 2nd Ray of love and wisdom, if balanced with the 6th Ray, tempers the fanatical side of the influence, but with its medium influence today, that may not be enough to keep cult-like devotion in check. The 4th Ray of harmony through conflict is also strong and may provide a mediating influence on the 6th Ray as might the 5th Ray of concrete knowledge, and science or research-based objectivity may provide some influence on an out of control 6th Ray. The 1st Ray of will/power is also less today suggesting that the will is either not strong enough to manage extreme behavior, or it could also indicate a risk-averse attitude while the same strength involving the 7th Ray influence suggests that a more egoic manifestation of behavior is possible.
• Black Moon Lilith ~ Taurus — remaining in your comfort zone is tempting, but it also signals an unwillingness to take risks toward a better outcome. In the 2nd House of money and resources, the risk may involve the management of financial success.
• Node influences ~ N Node – Gemini; S Node – Sagittarius describes the need for self-control and a focus on a spiritual perspective. The challenge involves understanding the viewpoints of others as well as expressing your own in a helpful manner. Avoid self-defeating behavior. An opposition between the Sun and the North Node encourages learning from one’s mistakes while a sextile between Mars and the North Node suggests self-assertion is favored when seeking new opportunities. And a square continues between Neptune and both the North and South Nodes signaling a focus on fantasy or imagination and suggests that maintaining your physical health will help ground and center your perspective and provide a foundation for creative success.
• Lunar Phase ~ 3rd Qtr on 7 Dec 2020 at 4:37 PM PST at 16°Vi22′; New on 14 Dec 2020 at 8:17 AM PST at 23°Sag08′
• Mansion of the Moon ~ 15th – Algafra – 1°Libra; covered flying; finding treasure, digging holes or pits, creates tension and discord as well as divorce, destroys homes and enemies, and interrupts travel
• Retrograde ~ Chiron (allow for inner transformation, letting go of past woundings); Uranus (allow for the unexpected and focus on change from within)
