This is a meaningful week.
Neptune is now direct, making its final pass through Pisces before moving into Aries in 2026. We’re standing at the end of a long chapter—one that’s been about dissolution, empathy, confusion, spiritual seeking, and, at times, escape. What’s beginning to stir now is the pressure of what comes next.
Throughout the week, the Moon repeatedly touches Neptune at late Pisces. Each pass asks us to notice where illusion is dissolving, where compassion is swelling, and where we’re being asked to meet reality with clearer eyes and a more open heart.

Moon in Scorpio | Mars in Capricorn
Monday begins with depth and focus. The Scorpio Moon brings emotional honesty, and its dialogue with Pluto can surface old patterns—especially around power, control, or attachment. This isn’t about getting stuck there. It’s about seeing what’s been operating beneath the surface so you can move forward differently.
Mars in Capricorn steadies everything. This is slow, deliberate progress. Not dramatic, not flashy—just consistent, sure-footed movement. Do what’s in front of you. Stay present. That’s enough.
Dreams may be vivid or symbolic, especially in the early hours. Pay attention. Your unconscious is speaking.

Waning Moon | Moon–Jupiter support | Sun square Saturn
Tuesday is another strong day for finishing, clearing, and resolving. The Moon’s connection with Jupiter opens the door to opportunity—but only if you feel emotionally aligned with what’s being offered.
If something feels overwhelming, don’t dismiss it immediately. Consider pacing instead. Sometimes we turn away from gifts simply because we’re not used to receiving them.
The Sun square Saturn can feel like self-expression pressing up against obligation or authority. Expectations may feel heavy. Let the tension clarify what actually matters.

Moon void of course → Moon enters Sagittarius
The Moon is void of course from 10:24–11:38 a.m. ET. This is not the time to start something new. Instead, wrap things up, organize, clear clutter, or work on projects already in motion. Emotional attachment is low—use that to your advantage.
Once the Moon enters Sagittarius, energy lifts. Curiosity increases. Movement picks up. You may feel pulled in multiple directions—physically or philosophically. Choose intention over impulse.
Thursday, December 18
Moon in Sagittarius
Belief systems come into focus. Sagittarius wants meaning, truth, and direction—but as we move toward the New Moon, there’s a quieter questioning underneath the enthusiasm.
Notice where passion is genuine and where it might be compensating for uncertainty. Choose what expands you, not what exhausts you.
Friday, December 19
New Moon in Sagittarius | Moon enters Capricorn late evening
This New Moon is reflective and potent. With Neptune close by, it asks deep, personal questions:
What do you believe now?What feels sacred to you?And where might illusion be dissolving?
This can be a turning point, even if it shows up through small, ordinary decisions. Later in the evening, the Moon enters Capricorn, shifting the focus toward grounding insight into action.
Weekend: December 20–21
Capricorn Moon | Winter Solstice
The weekend brings steadiness. Capricorn energy helps translate reflection into form—slowly, patiently, and with care.
On Sunday, December 21, the Sun enters Capricorn, marking the Winter Solstice. In the northern hemisphere, darkness begins to give way to returning light. In the southern hemisphere, the fullness of light invites rest, balance, and inwardness.
This moment asks for reconciliation—between belief and responsibility, spirit and structure, compassion and action.
Move forward the way Capricorn does: present, grounded, and committed.
Bring love, creativity, and meaning down to earth.We need it now.
