we have the last New Moon of the year in the positive sign of Sagittarius,
giving us the opportunity to set visionary goals. The Sun and the Moon fill us
with hope to plan and write statements that relate to activities which offer us
new experiences, expanding knowledge, find ideas and solutions that lead to
positive results, develop optimism and self-esteem, be spontaneous trusting our
intuition, planning our holidays and our travels for 2018.
The New Moon
occurs at 26 deg of Sagittarius… just making contact with the Galactic Centre
of our galaxy = the source of energy that feeds our Sun!!! I love the way
Melanie Reinhart has told the story from the Mythology:
“The mythic
origin of our galaxy, the Milky Way, is portrayed in the story of Hercules, a
son of Zeus. However, as his mother was Alcmene, a mortal woman, Hercules was
much hated by Hera, the first wife of Zeus. It is said that Zeus put Hercules
to Hera’s breast while she was asleep, so that by drinking her milk Hercules
could be assured of immortality. Hera awoke to find a suckling baby, not her
own, at her breast. Angered, she withdrew her nipple, and her milk streamed
across the sky, forming the ‘Milky Way’. The word ‘galaxy’ comes from the same
root as the word ‘milky’ [Gk. galaxias]” As you see this New Moon is very powerful.
The Luminaries (Sun & Moon at 26 deg Sagittarius) are hugged by Venus at 21 deg Sagittarius inviting us to feel free to ask what we really want and, on the other side Saturn at 29 deg Sagittarius ending its journey showing us the power of commitment to make what we want a reality. On Wednesday Saturn gets to its home Capricorn to pull up our sleeves and work hard to make things happen!
Uranus at 24 deg Aries is
supporting this union between luminaries with spark out of the blue
opportunities!!! We need to be attentive to our surroundings! And Jupiter, the
ruler of this New Moon, is in Scorpio injecting good vibes to our inner power
smiling at transformer Pluto to be able to light the core of our lives.
As you know Mercury, the planet that represents our
thinking and communication is still retrograde for one week more… inviting us
to question and to find meaning in our lives; review and shape our ideas… For
me it means that we can write our intentions under the New Moon – Dec 18, 2017
-and check them on Friday Dec 23, 2017 when it goes direct, adding more
intentions that we may have missed…
Interestingly it is more common to have the New
Moon at the beginning of each month and then have the full Moon later in the
month but due to the Eclipse in August 2017, this has changed a little offering
the Moon in Sagittarius so close to Christmas opening the road for next year
resolutions… to fill us with joy, celebration and optimism to trust our talents
looking for ways to grow… Blessings on
New Moon
