Today is the last day of Third Quarter Moon phase. The energies from the New Moon (on December 4) and the Full Moon (December 18) recede in preparation for a new cycle of energy (Sunday, January 2, 2022). Let’s review.
1 - DECEMBER 4, 2021 - NEW MOON/TOTAL SOLAR ECLIPSE - 13 Sagittarius - “a widow’s past is brought to light”
Recall that the New Moon was conjunct Mercury and opposing the Black Moon. This mixed the cycle’s energy with thought processes and communication (Mercury) and with integration of shadow sides. The Sabian symbol of the the widow’s past is a deep reveal, prompts face to face encounters with self and others, and freedom for new opportunities.
It was an alchemical brew for transformation directed from the Divine Inbreath that always comes with the Sagittarius cycle. This year’s Divine Inbreath of the Sagittarius Cycle was exceptionally “windy,” and we knew the coming Total Solar Eclipse energetics with the New Moon energetics warranted huddling close together to receive the breath of Spirit.
2 - DECEMBER 18, 2021 - FULL MOON OPPOSITE THE GALACTIC CENTER - “society granting bankruptcy to him, a man leaves the court.” Like the widow, he has a second chance or another chance. In kind, the Full Moon of a Total Solar Eclipse is just as powerful.
3 - DECEMBER 19, 2021 - VENUS MADE CONJUNCTION WITH PLUTO AND THEN STATIONED RETROGRADE - “a fairy dancing in the mist of a waterfall” and “a mountain pilgrimage”
Venus remains retrograde until January 29, 2022, and will continue the daily churn of the values of humanity. Daily events show us what we value — or what is important to us.
The presence of the Black Moon this cycle tells us to look behind the chaos and look beyond the veil of shadows because what we truly value may be right there. The presence of Mercury this cycle told us that it may twist our minds inside out.
So have I made the case for excitement about leaving this cycle? :) The widow and the bankrupted man are ready to move on, and so are we.
Tomorrow, the Balsamic Moon phase enters. The Balsamic Moon phase is neither part of the current cycle but not yet part of the incoming cycle. Frequencies recede back and new ones prepare to come alive. It’s happening at a good time. Tomorrow is 11 Owl - the rebirth of wisdom.
