Virgo moon pushes us through the workweek, then it enters Libra leading into the weekend.

Scorpio moon will close out the weekend before leaving next week- I always feel that a water moon seems to cause flooding.

Mars finally begins to wake up on Thursday January 12th, 2023 in Gemini- reaching it's full speed in March. 

Venus in friendly Aquarius brings freedom of expression in love; Mars in Gemini blends well with another air element and unique quirky love/friendship/partnerships can be found starting this weekend.

Caution is still advised due to Mercury's extended nap in Capricorn, where the Sun will visit until the 21st of January. Mercury's meet up next week with Uranus in Taurus will also spark out of the box thinking.

Venus in Aquarius will also blend well with Uranus in Taurus, as they are swapping homes for a minute, adding to the spark of individuality and equality to the mix of social reforms set to begin as Pluto shifts into Aquarius in March 2023 for a brief reconnaissance mission.

Staying mindful as the outer and inner planets begin to move forward will help with personal and public life as we continue to navigate these choppy waters until the end of the month. Practicing flexibility in all things will help mentally as the year continues delivering the unexpected.

Friday finds the moon moving into Libra for the weekend, making us all diplomatic and seeking others to share memories with as we are more emotionally detached.

Next week will be a new moon in Capricorn, manifesting long term goals will be easier now.

The year ends with Mercury taking a hibernation in Capricorn until January 18th 2023. Take extra care with communicating and traveling.

Happy Holidays and Happy New Year 2023 when podcasting will return on January 10th.

Thursday finds Mercury in Capricorn spatting with sleepy Mars in Gemini, causing all kinds of problems with expressing our true mind when speaking with others.

Mercury also meets up with the True North Node in Taurus- reinforcing our growth as humans.

*Mindfulness is needed to communicate clearly as the new year approaches.*

Wednesday's meeting between the Sun and Neptune caused massive amounts of wet weather all over the world, including fogginess in our minds.

Venus' spat with Saturn did not help to make Wednesday any easier, as many things we value and count on were restricted to us.

The communications sector is also beginning its slow down as Mercury prepares for its nap at the end of the year.

*Mindfulness helps out the rest of the year as we are reminded of small changes -that eventually lead to grander changes.*

Moon moves out of Leo Tuesday and visits Virgo beginning this evening, where we will find healthy ways of loving.

Saturday finds the Cancer moon meeting up with Uranus and the North Node helping us to seek new ways to create comfort.

Gemini moon continues to spread curiosity shining a light on our need for new stimulating activities that engage our emotional needs for freedom and adventure.

Thursday finds Uranus also meeting up with Juno helping us to feel confident in our thoughts ideals.

*Find inner peace during the hectic pace of the ending of the year 2022 through quiet time alone with your breathing.*

Full Moon in Gemini tonight is the last of 2022 meets up with sleepy Mars - causing some passive aggressiveness emotionally as confusion may reign over the day leading into tomorrow.

Sun in Sagittarius also is not seeing eye to eye with Uranus in Taurus - adding to the tension today  as we may lose confidence in our plans and judgements.

Moon is also opposed to the Sun making us all feeling irritable and impatient as we try to get a grip on our emotional landscape.

*Find time to focus on your breathing.*

This month's Golden Guest is a collection of poems edited by Meghan Dargue, and published by Kobayaashi Studios. The cover is also designed by Meghan Dargue known as @megwaf on twitter where she hosts a site called 'From One Line..'  that provides prompts for writers to spur on our imaginations.

The book is from such a prompt: 'If I Were A House" where writers were asked to contribute to the cause of providing insulated sleeping bags/pods to people in need due to their situations that may have caused homelessness.

Please help the charity SleepPods to provide much needed help as the funds raise all go to the cause.
