The celestial week of December 30, 2024, begins with the Sun rising in earthy, responsible Capricorn, illuminating an opportunity to feed one’s higher nature with good nourishment to build a foundation of spiritual enlightenment.  Saturn, the CEO of Capricorn is floating upon the waters of spiritual Pisces to support the process with the higher self of consciousness training the lower self of the conscious ego.  

The highest vibration of Capricorn is to ascend the mountains of life leading to success with integrity and honor.  Whereas, the lower vibration of the ego demonstrated by Capricorn uses energy and others to climb the ladder of success without regard or recognition of those who support it.  

While Capricorn tends to use tried and tested methods of the past to achieve goals and aspirations; the natural inclination of Saturn in Pisces suggests letting go of unconscious, imposed restrictions learned through social and parental conditioning of what is required to succeed.  The caveat is that Saturn in Pisces is being challenged by Jupiter retrograde in Gemini with multiple ideas without a plan for execution and Mercury in Sagittarius with expansive, grandiose ideas that appear to have no means of financial investments that will encourage Saturn to get on board.

Thus, a quandary requires Virgo’s energy to make sense of, organize, and glean the gold from ideas if they are of any value or provide bigger opportunities.  However, Virgo’s energy is currently focused elsewhere, leaving Jupiter, Mercury, and Saturn to figure it out themselves!

Meanwhile, the Moon is also positioned in authoritative Capricorn in a balsamic lunar phase with the Sun, backing up the Sun’s position in Capricorn as the CEO in charge to take a step back from the material aspects of reality and release what isn’t working to a Higher Power for resolutions before the new moon cycle in Capricorn occurs later in the afternoon.

Once the new moon cycle in Capricorn occurs, a significant and serious energetic shift occurs relative to achieving the tangible goals of 2025 regarding financial security and career goals.  

Thus, the New Year’s Eve celebrations on December 31, may lack the usual enthusiasm of prior celebrations as a present somber tone permeates the energy of the future.

As the clock strikes midnight on January 1, 2025, the new year may begin on an optimistic note of uncertainty as Saturn in Pisces continues to deal with the challenges presented by Jupiter retrograde in Gemini to become conscious of what is being irresponsibly communicated through Mercury in Sagittarius, which can have the effect of starting a fire with misinformation and then spreading it without the evidence to support it.  

On a positive note, it is also a time to reconnect with nature to clear the mental cobwebs of the past with new intentions for the present with aligned thoughts, visions, and emotions.

Before the sun comes up, the Moon jolts into erratic Aquarius and emotional freedom becomes the dominant factor of shifting energy and plans to celebrate the New Year!  The Moon’s first planetary interactions are with Mars retrograde in Leo and Pluto in Aquarius simultaneously, which makes for an unusual dynamic that the Moon in Aquarius detaches from with an abrupt change of plans with friends!  

Inclement weather related to water and frigid temperatures may become a factor in unforeseen conditions relative to traffic and air travel!

One of the annual traditions of New Year’s Day involves making resolutions for the coming year that may not be completed, as the solar year of 2024 has not finished.  Even though the calendar has changed to a new year, the current solar phase is a third quarter which requires taking responsible actions to complete the manifestations of the intentions planted at the Spring Equinox of 2024.

Before the day ends on January 2, Venus joins Saturn and Neptune in Pisces to seek solace from recent and hectic celebrations with friends and family.  However, Venus in Pisces’ first planetary encounter is with Mars retrograde in Leo, so relationships may take center stage for attention about what isn’t working or to vent frustrations about the past couple of weeks.  

The caveat is that Venus in Pisces can be easily drained with expectations that it does not have the energy to handle or meet.  Therefore, self-care will be vital during the next few weeks to meet the demands of the new year without becoming exhausted. Pisces is considered to be spiritual, visionary, artistic, and imaginative so now is a great time to engage in spiritual retreats, musical pursuits, meditation, and hypnosis to consciously utilize unconscious resources that build onto the foundation of manifesting dreams into reality.

In the early hours of January 3, Mars retrograde in Leo opposes Pluto in Aquarius illuminating an opportunity to lay down the swords of battle over control issues relative to conditional and unconditional love to find a resolution of inner peace.  Mars retrograde in Leo doesn’t currently have the energy or desire to squabble over differences of opinion about the appropriate demonstration of love.  Meanwhile, Pluto in Aquarius demands the freedom to express and experience unconditional love with detachment.  Thus, the solution lies in mutual respect for another’s model of the world without judging it by its respective one, while taking actions that demonstrate love for oneself.

Later in the morning, the Moon joins Venus, Saturn, and Neptune in Pisces to prepare for a relaxing weekend to unwind and recharge emotional batteries to support the manifestation of hopes, wishes, and dreams!
