Starting with 1st of December, there already appears to be a heavy Neptunian vibe to month as Pisces Mars at 9 degrees approaches Pisces Neptune at 13 degrees, both direct. The initial gut feeling going into December is to raise into our dreamlands and try to make something of our dreams, with both being direct, this likely taking a physical show. Maybe you finally start a new blog, look for a new job, or take up a craft.

Capricorn Saturn at 7 degrees adds a touch of realism through a sextile. Whilst we reach for our dreams, Saturn is quietly tying the strings, reminding us to do things properly this time around. As Pisces raises ahead with the masterpiece, Capricorn is still just one step in front, pencilling in the foundations.

This transit will be especially felt by people with mutable placements around the 9-13 degree mark.

Gemini and Sagittarius placements will be square this and so may experience a blockaid and frustration with making that fantastical energy work for them. Virgo placements will be at first uneasy to it, as it feels strange to them, but for everything in their power to harness it. Pisces at this degree will be affected intensely, maybe not noticing the swing of Mars approaching Neptune and their actions affected by it.

Cancer or Scorpio placements in this degree radius will benefit from this, their creative or physical pursuits being affirmed. To a similar effect, Taurus and Capricorn in this radius will gain a light burst of effective, optimistic energy.

Adding to the optimistic rolling on of opportunity and ambition is Sagittarius Sun at 8 degrees conjunct Sagittarius Jupiter at 5 degrees. December is a time of confidence and luck, it’s a time to finally believe in yourself and reach for the impossible! If you have Sagittarius placements in this degree orb, they are being activated by solarian shine and jupiterian will power.

For those of the first decan Sagittarius Pluto generation, there’s going to be a pull to destroy and recreate. To set fire to old projects, ways or relationships. It is so important to take a step back from this powerful transit, analyse what you’re doing first, then to harness that energy and thrust into action.

It’s also key to note that Mercury is in retrograde away from this intense conjunction. Whereas these days before, you’ve been able to communicate your ego or self so much better than before, by December, this power to plan and communicate this energy will be slowly coming out of our grasps.

On a similar note, both these Sagittarius and Pisces transits are mutable and so a valuable thing to remember at this time is it is okay to lose that spark. Mutable energy often flames out at hurdles, rethinks, and tries again. If you feel it dwindle, remember it is vital to not abandon entirely because right now is the time to get things done with success and good luck. Dreams can be accomplished!

As far as relationships go, we need to be aware there will likely be changes, and that’s okay. This can also be said about our relationship with ourselves, our styles, our talents. This is because 29 degree Libra Venus is opposite 29 degree Aries Uranus. The cardinal nature of this opposition swings their disagreement into action, forcing us to find a way to balance outer change with inner love and beauty. If your relationship with people or partners appears to hit a turn, flow with it and grow through it! Oppositions are about adaptation and finding the middle ground.

Aries Uranus Note: It is a time of beautiful change as we enter into Taurus Uranus. Some good reads linked below!

Aries Uranus will also be square Cancer North Node at 28 degrees. We could be seeing our paths in front of us, but watching the scenery on them change drastically. Hurdles may be put in our ways. Ultimately, December presents us the question “do I want this?” and this tough square is going to make us decide. For those with personals, Midheavens or North Nodes that sit around the 26-2 degree mark of these signs or signs aspecting this, December is going to bring a jolt. It’s going to be important to breathe and reflect on what you want. The union of Aries and Cancer asks us to reflect emotionally and instinctively, specifically in this one on our chosen paths in life. It may be the time to reconsider what you’re studying or the job you’re doing. A time to finally gain the confidence to undertake that class or new skill!

By 10th December, we have lost the Sagittarius energy from our ambitions, but the optimistic creativity and drive of our initial Pisces transit is still going strong. Venus is now 4 degrees Scorpio and any relationship hurdles have found their way to a brighter pasture.

Whilst we still have that Pisces energy, it’s suddenly battling with Sagittarius Sun at 17 degrees. At this time, those new projects we have started are going to dive under the feeling that maybe we can’t do it. Gemini or Virgo placements at 15-17 degrees will be forming a tight t-square with the Sagittarius and Pisces transits. But don’t worry! Don’t let head first Sagittarius make the decisions! Think rationally, and instead of destroying any projects or new ideas, place them to one side and return to them once your head has cleared.

At this time, we are greeted by a very interesting grand trine. This will be very important to those with water placements around 24-28 degrees. Cancer North Node at 27 degrees trine Pisces Chiron at 27 degrees trine Scorpio Mercury at 28 degrees. To sum this one up before we analyse it: “My words have come from pain, but they are made of light” If you’ve been suffering lately, it’s finally time to turn it into words and workings which can lead you one step further on your journey. This time may inspire our watery friends to open up to us, to invest emotional wisdom in us, and take us under their wings. The significance of Mercury here is that previous pains (Chiron) and future steps (North Node) are bound by work processes, friendship and communication (Mercury). Come mid December, it’s a brilliant time to listen to those around you and hear out their stories. Old pains is being turned into new lessons which are going to positively change how we deal with our own futures.

Another positive in mid December shines upon our love lives. Taurus Juno at 21 degrees retrograde trine Capricorn Pluto at 19 degrees direct. It’s likely we have been stashing away dreams and ideas of our ideal lover, hoping they exist, and this trine to Pluto is here to add some love magic to everyone’s lives. Small beams of romantic transformation could be peaking into your life. This goes especially for those with Venus or Juno in earth at similar degrees to these transits.

By the 20th December, we also say goodbye to our idealistic Pisces energy and instead say hello to dreamy romance with Scorpio Venus at 12 degrees trine Pisces Neptune at 13 degrees. There’s going to be someone on your mind. Perhaps the same someone that our still-present earth trine whispered to us about. They talk of Christmas love and this transit is truly going to make us feel it! Mistletoe, anyone? Enough said!

Now… Christmas Day!

Christmas Day is a 4 degree Leo Moon. This is great news for early decan fire anything. The sun is ruling the emotions of the day and so it’s safe to call it a time to shine. Let someone know you love them, hold family and friends dearly, and smile for that photo! This Christmas is a day of pure jovial confidence.

We’re still thinking obsessively about loved ones with our earth trine and water trine, but there’s also a very pleasant energy why is within us that we would’ve felt on the lead up week to Christmas: Capricorn Sun at 4 degrees trine Aries Uranus at 29 degrees. The week or two before this date, we began feeling a shifted ego. Our self took on a new form and Christmas begins to ease us out into that form, reborn from this passing transit. “New year, new me” may finally be a thing!

Also… Don’t think you’re about to hear the end of anything this Christmas: Sagittarius Mercury at 10 degrees is conjunct Sagittarius Jupiter at 13 degrees! It is definitely a loud, chatty Christmas! Stories, jokes, bounding laughter, this year is filled with Sagittarian charisma which is going to warm every smile.

Finally, New Year’s Eve.

At first, it’s probably going to feel hard to loosen up with Capricorn Sun at 9 degrees conjunct Capricorn Saturn at 11 degrees. It’s probably going to mean stupid work calls or drunk-too-early friends for a few people. Once we learn Saturn can strengthen our ego and make us all boss ass bitches, hopefully our nights can loosen up.

Whilst we all laugh and party, the stars have set up a very serious message for us. Pisces Chiron at 28 degrees conjunct Pisces Mars at 29 degrees. This New Year, we end on a very poignant message: it is truly time to heal from our wounds. Mars is going to actively nurse Chiron, encouraging us to stitch up the dark pieces we still hold and go into 2019 fighting. Cancer North Node at 26 degrees trines this and reassures us it is okay to move on.

On a tiny note, Scorpio Venus at 22 degrees is opposite Taurus Juno at 20 degrees, so it’s maybe not a good idea to call your new crush the love of your life this New Year. With Sagittarius Jupiter at 11 degrees square Pisces Neptune at 14 degrees, it’s possible our previous illusion of them is actually smashed on this night.

Overall, December is going to kick us to finally achieve our dreams and validate ourselves! Neptunian romances which have the ability to blossom into more wait ahead of us. But, with all the Jupiterian excitement early on, it is vital to let your mind wind down after Christmas and take on the true meaning of 2018: it is time to leave your suffering behind.

Moon & Mars: Experiencing Emotions and Expressing Them

Our moon placements speaks to the inner dialogue of how we feel and experience emotions. However, emotional expressions can manifest in our Mars placement when experiencing raw and strong emotions. This creates an interesting dynamic between moon and Mars; the moon can explain the basic instincts when it comes to interpreting feelings while Mars is how we may act it out. 

Below is how these two placements may be portrayed elementally wise when it comes to ones emotional state vs how they may unleash that to the world. 

Fire moon ☽ (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius)-

Fire moons experience emotions quickly. Emotions can be like a wave, it hits them hard but can disappear just as quickly as it surfaced. However, when strong emotions come they are okay with experiencing and owning it. Their passionate minds make it easier for them to feel defensive when the ego is under attack. They can be prone to having their emotional state eat up their entire mind if expression is not released. 

Earth moon ☽ (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn)-

Earth moons have the tendency to suppress emotions in favor of a more practical view. They aren’t emotionless but may come across stoic or indifferent. They seek stability for themselves and others as well so when that is threaten they may feel the most discomfort with their emotions. It takes a lot for them to be honest with emotions and often only shares them with those deemed worthy enough. 

Air moon ☽ (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius)-

Air moons hold emotions to the same standard as oxygen: they know it’s there but they don’t need to really acknowledge its presence. With this standard it can make an air moon feel like they need to intellectualize their emotions so they hold validity. When they actively think about them then it consumes them. Emotional state become unideal when communication is rough with others and they feel others have grown disdain for them.  

Water moon ☽ (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces)-

Water moon experience emotions deeper and can understand the layers and complexity it brings. While their strength is admirable, their weakness is holding emotions in until it becomes too much to handle. This isn’t because they avoid emotions, it is the conflicts they may cause to those around they don’t want. Emotions guide what they would and should do. Emotions becomes too much to handle when they feel they are being treated poorly.

Zodiac Insecurities

Let’s get introspective and hit insecurities the Rising and Moon could develop. 

Aries Rising can form insecurities around their external confidence and strength. An insecure one will want to appear “all that” by showing off, bragging, maybe acting arrogant. They find insecurity in their ability to establish direction or assertion in the public sphere and might try to dominate space.

Aries Moon insecurities are aimed toward identity and self-worth via winning or conquest. Challenges help Aries Moon develop. Battles and competitions are enticing but can reward their emotional fulfillment or can reassure a self-doubt.

Taurus Rising insecurities can exist in the physical realm with looks, material possessions, and money. Watch for a more insecure Taurus Rising putting an emphasis on weight, beauty, fashion, cars, purses, etc. They could hide their body too.

Taurus Moon has insecurities around security and stability. They cling, is possessive, and territorial over others, places, things, even ideas. They can have a fear of change and losing security that makes them stay in unhealthy relationships.

Gemini Rising insecurities lie in how they communicate, connect, how others judge their intellect and information. You’ll see emphasis on jokes, trend-following, show of intellect, caution of communication or overshare of it with a insecure Gemini Rising.

Gemini Moon insecurities are tied to their intellect, social standing and acceptance, and possible lack of depth or emotional grasp. An insecure Gemini Moon keeps things light and avoids too much self-analyzation. They avoid judgment of others but observe every nuance of others. 

Cancer Rising has insecurities revolving around emotional offenses. They can be shyer, protective of views, maybe judgmental.

Cancer Moon is insecure in their individuality sometimes clinging to family or community views with blind faith. Security is a huge doubt.  You can find an insecure Cancer Moon being possessive, clingy, controlling, and manipulative.

Leo Rising has their insecurities bundled up in ego and identity. You’ll find an insecure one boastful, opinionated, cocky, and harshly competitive. 

Leo Moon fears being forgotten, insecurity stems from lack of recognition and positive self-esteem. Common signs of low self-esteem will show.

Virgo Rising insecurities stem from a lack of perfection in the physical world or lack of usefulness. An insecure Virgo Rising may become health and beauty obsessed, judgmental about looks, and must be “important” somehow to a group or person.

Virgo Moon insecurity is embedded in not being useful or needed. An insecure one easily gets used or turns into a doormat. They practice unhealthy giving and attachments. 

Libra Rising insecurity has to do with acceptance and admiration. An insecure one can exploit their talents, focus too much on looks, or even throw others under a bus. 

Libra Moon insecurity is about being liked and connected. They attach self-worth to who they associate with, fear being alone, and fear disapproval.

Scorpio Rising’s insecurity is appearing weak or vulnerable. They might act aggressively tough or be highly reserved. An insecure Scorpio Rising doesn’t want others knowing the real them whatever it is.

Scorpio Moon insecurity revolves around lack of control and fear of betrayal. Possession, manipulation, jealousy, and abuse take form with this.

Sagittarius Rising insecurities actually revolve around appearing foolish. They avoid “being wrong”, joke about themselves to avoid mocking from others. Sagittarius Rising can have an insecurity of being labeled or pin down to something too specific, as if their impression is trapped. An insecure Sagittarius Rising has a hard time accepting negative reputations, feedback, or being categorized even if that category true and not negative.

Sagittarius Moon insecurity is fear of being trapped or held down. With immaturity this leads to avoiding responsibility and commitments. They can be insecure in how their morals line up to the rest of the world or community morals. 

Capricorn Rising: Capricorn in general has great insecurity in lack of control. Within the Rising they try to control environment with strictness, demands, or pushiness. They can be insecure in their authority. They may overcompensate and push others around to get this or lack a lot of assertion.

Capricorn Moon insecurity in lack of control shows most in their work and close relationships. They are controlling and critical. Their insecurity can focus on stability. They may get dependent, not take risk, and become rigid to safeguard their stability.

Aquarius Rising is insecure about acceptance/rejection. You will find an insecure one conforming, being opinionated, and displaying plenty of faux confidence.

Aquarius Moon fears rejection and wants approval but tends to hide their uniqueness due to this. They might be quiet observers.They can be insecure in their ability to become close with others. They fear intimacy, avoid emotional exploration, and become cold.

Pisces Rising has insecurities wrapped in guilt or shame. This could take form in wanting to please others, hating on those more carefree, being used, or attempting to escape with self-inflicted ignorance. 

Pisces Moon is insecure about feeling loved and easily gives into guilt. They manipulate or deny to soothe or take control of this.

Correlations in rising sign appearance

These are just commonalities in the appearance of people with the same rising sign, of course you may have a Leo rising and not look exactly like any of the people portrayed in the post but that’s because 1) aspects to your ascendant and the rest of the chart effects appearance to! So this is mainly focusing on facial features because the 1st house rules the head. And 2) genetics :-P

Aries Rising: 

Aries risings seem to have very symmetrical faces, they have an eyebrow shape that can make them seem a bit angry or intimidating. They have small smiles, and piercing eyes like they have this pointed shape to them. One stands out here though, right? Well Shakira has Pluto opposing her ascendant, as I thought so she does appear a bit more Scorpionic than these other ladies.

Taurus Rising:

Now our beautiful Venusians. These ladies most notable commonality in their facial features is this strong facial bone structure. They also have these chins that poke out slightly. They also seem to have a face shape somewhere in between round and square.  They also seem to have a kind of earthy skin ton, even our pale Lana has some earthy undertones. 

Gemini Rising: 

Oh these Gems of ladies do appear to have a lot in common with their facial features! They seem to have longer faces, and longer noses. Wider set eyes also seem to be common. They also seem to have notable cheekbones, and a quirky sort of smile. 

Cancer Rising: 

These Cancer rising ladies all have very square and puffy faces, They also have very milky eyes and skin. They seem to also have full-ish lips.They have strong facial bone structure, as a cardinal rising should. And they have these really high cheekbones. They also seem to have thicker hair, and pursed lips.

Leo rising:

These Leonine women all seem to have rounder, softer faces. They also seem to have this skin that just… glows. Not to mention they have thicker hair. They have more leveled eyes. They have a similar width to their lips, and similar upper and lowe lip proportions. 

Virgo Rising:

It seems that these Virgoan women have a similar oval-ish face shape, a bit of a crooked smile, and similar long-ish rounded foreheads with a bit of a dent in them. They also seem to get this similar lines around their cheekbones when they smile.

Libra Rising: 

The first most noticeable commonality between these beautiful Venusian ladies is that there is a certain softness to their face, their’s no sharp features that point out or anything. Except for a slightly pointed out chin.  They also have similar, nice noses? They also have similar lips in that they are in-between thin and full lips. 

Scorpio Rising:

Well look at these beautiful Scorpionic ladies, they all have this obviously more round-ish faces. Their lips all also do this kind of pointed-folded thing when they smile, which idrk how to explain but just look at the pictures. Their cheekbones all also stand out a lot when they smile. They also all have this chin that points out a bit when they smile.

Sagittarius Rising: 

Beautiful Sagittarius risings seem to have longer faces, and smaller eyes that are a bit wider apart. They also have noticeably nice cheekbones. They also tend to have smaller foreheads, and a nose that stand out in a slightly hooked way. But they overall just have a very deer-like face tbh?? 

Capricorn Rising:

Similarly to Sagittarius rising, these gorgeous Capricorn rising have longer faces, but they also have longer noses. Their cheekbones are nice, but not all that initially prominent. They have a kind of pointed eye shape that causes them to have more so piercing eyes. Overall they just have decently symmetrical faces.

Aquarius Rising: 

Ah our uniquely beautiful Aquarian women! The most obvious commonality for Aquarius risings is a more square yet soft face. They also seem to have small foreheads, and wide cheeks. Big eyes also seem to be a commonality, and a nose that sticks out but isn’t hooked or anything. 

Pisces Rising:

Oh Pisces, these lovely ladies seem to all have an upper lip that curves down/in a bit. They also all have these round and soft yet noticeable cheekbones. Their faces in general are long yet soft. They also all have a very far away look in their eyes, as if they are of in their own imagination.

Choosing the angel or the devil sat on your shoulders can be difficult, can vary from moment to moment, and I think most of us fall somewhere in-between. I wanted to write about how the angel and devil may manifest in the archetypes.

The Aries angel would speak of protecting others, of acting from the heart, or seeking adventure and wisdom from these adventures, of leaving baggage behind and exploring the world with an open mind.

The Aries devil would speak of impulsive delights, tempers and short-term goals, of never saying sorry and thinking in black and white.

The Taurus angel would speak of sustaining space for others, loyalty and care. It would also speak of happy indulgence and creativity, exploring the finer side of life.

The Taurus devil would speak of possessiveness and material needs only, of jealousy and failing to see the value of those things that cannot be held in your hands.

The Gemini angel would speak of teaching, being a messenger, everything from little lessons to profound wisdom. It would speak of making others laugh when life seems that bit too heavy for them.

The Gemini devil would speak of mischief, not the harmless kind, but deception, making people believe that up is down and down is up. They would encourage flightiness, leaving things behind on a whim.

The Cancer angel would speak of mothering something or someone, of cradling it until it is ready to take flight, even an idea. They would also speak of emotional intuition and compassion for the circumstances of others.

The Cancer devil would speak of playing the victim, of gaining insincere sympathies with turbulent actions. They would speak of building cages around yourself and those you wish to keep.

The Leo angel would speak of shining joys and theatrical humour, of devotion and gift giving. They would also speak of adhering to a higher sense of justice, a universal right and wrong that does not limit, but enhances the joys of life.

The Leo devil would speak of personal gain over others, of petty arguments to ease the ego, of crowns that place you higher than the rest.

The Virgo angel would speak of heartfelt duties and devotions, for caring in little practicalities, especially when it comes to the Earth and animals. 

The Virgo devil would speak of damning criticisms, for you and for others. They would encourage pettiness and prickliness, pushing others away with an air of intellectual superiority. 

The Libra angel would speak of connection and conversation, of creating space and time for those that may lack confidence themselves, especially socially. They would encourage harmony in action, of finding balance between taking and giving.

The Libra devil would speak of manipulations and gossip, knowing the juicy details that should never be leaked. They would speak of attaching self-worth with the attitudes of the people around you.

The Scorpio angel would speak of liberating peoples shames and sense of darkness, of bringing them into the light without judgement. They would also speak of emotional intelligence and empathy.

The Scorpio devil would speak of exploiting peoples fears and saving the pains of their own and others. They would also speak of jealousy and the unwillingness to enjoy the frivolous and harmless in life.

The Sagittarius angel would speak of being inspiring, telling stories and myths, of finding wisdom in humour and the lighter side of life. They would also speak of healthy scepticism and exploring belief.

The Sagittarius devil would speak of laughing in the face of seriousness, of insensitivity, of embracing the delicate with bluntness and dismissiveness.

The Capricorn angel would speak of achievement, of a sense of fulfilment in life, of seeing the progress from the time of then verses now. They would also speak of dry humour and subtle charm.

The Capricorn devil would encourage business over emotion, of seeing the world in numbers and clockwork over nuances and the “feel” of things.

The Aquarius angel would speak of self-acceptance and embracing the individual within us. Also, the exploration of ideas and originality, of seeking progress for the betterment of all of us.

The Aquarius devil would encourage mental superiority, of the unwillingness to see others as also special and individuals, rather than one outdoing the many.

The Pisces angel would speak of accepting how you feel in the moment as valid, of seeking higher truths through creativity and compassion. They would speak of bringing healing in the form of patience and time for others.

The Pisces devil would encourage deception and passive-aggression. They would also encourage the idea that others can overshadow you, take your space for there own without consequence, of powerlessness.
