Lunar Transits for 26-28 Dec 2018

Relationships are important as our Moon moves into Virgo and the 7th House of marriage and contracts at 9:50 AM PST on 26 December 2018. Earthy Virgo brings a focus on structure and security while the Moon itself influences our emotions so we may experience some concern over emotional security during this lunar period. Those affected by the government shutdown are likely experiencing fear over how they’ll make ends meet. Stay flexible and avoid the tendency toward perfection, particularly when interacting with others.

Aspects

With the Moon in square with the Midheaven, our emotions may influence our career choice or how we express ourselves within that structure. Parental relationships may influence how we view authority in the workplace so flexibility and balance are required at this time. With the Moon trine Uranus, we also may consider taking a new position, one that may be more emotionally satisfying.

Emotions aside, however, with the Moon trine the Sun, we feel loved and cherished by others during this lunar period. We should trust our intuition and ask for assistance if needed, trusting that whatever we need, it’s available.

Chart Balances

• Mode ~ Mutable energies are again strongest for the next lunar period indicating flexibility is necessary.
• Elements ~ Earth and Water in equal balance are strongest stressing physical or practical matters and emotions followed by Fire or will and creativity with Elemental Air (intellect) the weakest influence. Guard against indecision.
• Rays ~ The 6th Ray of Devotion and Idealism is strongest during this period suggesting an idealistic nature

Magickal Workings

With Earth and Water dominating, magicakal workings might include rituals for grounding and cleansing one’s emotional balance. Healing and career are also favored during this time. The 12th Mansion of the Moon has as one of its intentions the care of employees, so if there are issues at work that require some balance, the 12th Mansion can be of some assistance. Otherwise, if looking for a new job or considering any offers, using a pendulum can offer an interesting perspective.

As the holidays continue, we may feel somewhat lost if our life situation has changed or become difficult to manage. Stay flexible and focused on what’s essential. Let everything else go until a more settled time.

Until next time…

Lunar Blessings!
