The Sun in Aquarius mantra: "I break free with new creativity within myself"

However, we must first look deep within to fully grasp those core values (Venus) that will allow for the new sincere intentions to manifest creatively in our world. What blueprints for the future are you now putting into play?

So Venus is now chasing Mars through Aries and will conjunct Chiron, square Saturn in Sagittarius, and make a waxing sextile to Pluto in Capricorn.

Isn't it appropriate that we have this Venusian focus just prior to the cross-quarter Candlemas (Imbolc) and then Valentine's Day? This also occurs just prior to Venus' rare retrograde coming in early March.

So be willing to look into your own relationship patterns and beliefs right now. We will have three special workshops on sale on the Educational webinars page to help get you ready! Also, EA Course materials sale ends Jan. 27th. Join us Now!

The Full Moon of Cancer creates a cardinal grand cross in the sky re-emphasizing this new year theme of "considered activism"

Mercury direct in Capricorn through Feb. 2nd, will also activate that cardinal square as the messenger god travels over the first 15* of Capricorn for the third time and favorably aspects the nodes of the Moon bringing a certain clarity to our decisions.

Venus conjuncts Neptune at 10* Pisces. Assess what is most important to you and then feel the vibration of that deeply. This will determine how you will act upon your needs, wants and desires moving forward this year.

Lastly, but perhaps most importantly, Mars will aspect Pluto, Uranus, Chiron, Jupiter and Saturn all in the span of one calendar week. New insights, a new two-year cycle of core healing, and some adjustments in our attitude towards compromise will be necessary to avoid the old power and control games on this ever-evolving personal and collective journey to the core of our Souls.

2017, the Year of Activism, begins with a distinct Aquarian flavor after Uranus moves ever forward after a five month retrograde, now direct at 21* Aries. The lower octave of Uranus, Mercury, also goes direct this week in Sagittarius, on Jan 8th. This retrograde period in Capricorn found many of us (StarLady and MediaMonk) replacing appliances and hardware of all types, repairing vehicles, doors and windows, all Mercury/ Capricorn archetypes.

However, the big picture connected to the small stuff of Mercury, is the Sun conjunct Pluto at 17* Capricorn. Mundane resolutions aside, this represents tremendous power to re-birth the creative principle within our Souls.

Helping to energize this process is the Sun making aspects to Aries Uranus direct (waning square) and Libra Jupiter (waxing square)

What new pathways must be forged? What needs to be released? It just may come down to our intuitive notions about the friends and acquaintances we hold dear. With the Full Moon of Cancer Jan. 12th, decide this New Year who nourishes you and what holds you back on the always exciting journey to the core of the Soul.

As we exit 2016, Uranus, the planet ruling surprises and technology, goes direct at 21* Aries adding an Aquarian punch to the New Year. What aspects of life are you needing to liberate yourself from? What old conditioning patterns are you clinging to for security reasons that really are just holding you back? This is important to ponder as a core theme, for Uranus SD will be in the ingress chart for 2017.

Another core theme involves Mars and Neptune, conjunct now at 10* Pisces. Impatient Mars wandering through the Neptunian fog can become frustrated easily. Watch the tendency to over-do this holiday as excess in food, drugs and alcohol can certainly occur as compensation. Adding emotional emphasis is the Moon conjunct Mars/Neptune on Jan. 2nd. Moderation will help avoid post-holiday blues and depression; another classic Pisces archetype.

Finally, Venus ingresses Pisces from Jan. 2 - Feb. 2 and Mercury regresses into Sagittarius for about a week before marching forward again. What ultimate, meaningful values are you re-connecting with at year's end? Mercury retro in mutable Sag will guide you truthfully for the highest and best to be revealed to you as we re-set and refresh ourselves on the next level of growth for our Soul in 2017.

Jupiter and Saturn's last conjunction in May 2000, in Taurus, was all about

a deeper understanding of the many resources we sometimes take for granted

in our lives. Now, at the close of 2016, and three quarters of a cycle

later, both social planets are in a waning phase to the outer planets,

indicating a finishing up, or resolution and completion of those resource

and survival themes.

Jupiter's waning inconjuncts to Chiron and Neptune has helped to review and

refine the spiritual understandings we have attempted to grasp this cycle.

Now, Jupiter in Libra's opposition to Uranus could sow some relationship

rebellions and impatience with conflicting opinions.

Saturn's waning trine to Uranus and its waning square to Chiron may

manifest as disillusionment and a feeling of powerlessness, or, perhaps we

will all summon new courage to call out misogyny and racism and exclusive

politics when they appear.

One thing is for sure, Mars is compressed between Pluto and Uranus and

aspects Jupiter as well, so we all are feeling the pressure to act. Between

now and the end of the year, decide the best course of action that you will

undertake in the New Year individually and collectively. Integrity and

Compassion with those actions will be demanded for success as Mars

conjuncts Neptune in Pisces and begins a new two year cycle for inspiration

and guidance.

Celebrate the return of the light and the Sun this Winter Solstice! No coincidence that the traditional religious holiday co-opted the pagan celebration of the shortest day of the year.

Sun in Capricorn mantra: "I achieve my goals with emotional self-reliance"

Mars moves reluctantly into Pisces Dec. 19 - Jan. 27th and wonders what there is to do in this nebulous, floaty water sign. Reflect on those choices that made you most happy in 2016 and focus your conscious efforts there. It is no less than a new re-birth of the desire nature for all of us.

We shall also have a Mercury Retrograde Dec. 19th - Jan. 8th retracing the first 15* of Capricorn. A variety of parent-child themes could re-appear for the holidays. Maintain emotional homeostasis as many of us are challenged as we become the parent to our parents!

Finally, the end of this year is ripe with themes of truth versus falsities. Fact-checked information and real, deep conversations are highlighted with Jupiter opposing Uranus and Sag Saturn trine Uranus, as well. Build upon the conscious growth and discoveries you have evolved into exiting 2016, and create this as your own Happy New Year!
