The week of December 30 - January 5, we’re exploring Endings and Beginnings as we transition from 2024 to 2025, a year that adds up to 9—the number signifying closure, completion, and the enlightened wisdom born from endings.

This week’s New Moon in Capricorn at 9° is the final New Moon of 2024 and the third consecutive New Moon at this degree. Interestingly, the first three New Moons of 2025 will also occur at 9°, underscoring the profound cycle of release and transformation we are collectively navigating.

What endings are you anticipating in 2025?

Scott reflects on deeply personal experiences during years that added up to a 9—1980, 1989, 1998, 2007, and 2016—revealing how pivotal events in those years reshaped his life. He shares these stories to inspire and encourage you to embrace the endings and transitions that may unfold in 2025, offering a powerful reminder that endings often pave the way for growth, forgiveness, and renewal.

In pop culture, we explore Blake Lively’s lawsuit against her Ends with Us director and co-star, Justin Baldoni. Through an astrological lens, we examine the dynamics timing of her lawsuit and highlight the cosmic connection she shares with her husband, Ryan Reynolds, emphasizing the supportive synergy in their synastry.

This week also marks Venus, the Planet of Relationships, entering Pisces, a Sign where it is Exalted. During this first of two extended stays in Pisces (due to an impending retrograde), Venus heightens compassion and empathy in relationships but may also blur boundaries, leading to idealization or delusion.

Finally, a powerful alignment of Mars, Pluto, and the North Node ignites transformational energy, urging you to show up authentically within group dynamics while honoring your individuality. This combustive yet liberating influence invites you to embrace personal and collective transformation, fostering joy and deeper connection.

How will you honor the endings that lead to new beginnings? What transformations are you ready to ignite within yourself and your relationships?
