Crescent and First Quarter Moon

December 26 Monday
The Capricorn Moon goes void of course at 6:36 am, MT, for almost four hours of chipping away the crystallized habits of this exacting sign. During this time it is beneficial to let go of “must’s” and “ought’s” and all expectations and simply observe and allow inklings of a new form to stand out. At 10:14 am, the Moon moves into Aquarius, a sign ever-ready for innovation. We are faced with lots of material for that, some of which may have peculiar twists attached. Everything needed for a desired transition to occur seems to be available.

December 27 Tuesday
This Aquarius Moon brings many options for change. There’s lots to do; don’t forget that multi-tasking is overrated. Some even say it’s an illusion. Being prepared to take on anything and everything is simply “readiness”. Trying to do it all at once is complicated and perhaps crazy. So this is a day for organizing and prioritizing based on what is ripe for doing. Aquarius is known for its friendliness, which could mean that companionship is available for the work at hand, or someone with pleasant vibes may be encountered.

December 28 Wednesday
The Aquarius Moon entered her crescent phase early this morning stirring up urgency to explore what mysteries lies beyond the safety of one’s known and comfortable sphere of daily activities. Rules and restrictions may be burdensome but worth enduring as the possibility of a fuller existence begins to emerge. The Moon goes void of course at 2:32 pm, MT, for a little over two hours of elusive yet extremely creative impulses flying through our psyches. At 4:45 pm, the Moon moves into the deeply perceptive waters of Pisces in search of precious feelings to serve as guides for growth and understanding.

December 29 Thursday
The Pisces Moon awakens our awareness to a plethora of powerful openings through which we can live with increased spiritual consciousness. The more responsibility we take on for doing this the deeper and deeper we can live according to the urges of our souls. Otherwise, we can feel disoriented today and end up in a mess. The choices we individually make today are important to the easing of collective crises. They transcend our personal lives. The threads of fate tie us to others. The most difficult part of detecting this is discerning whether or not involvement feels right as versus like an entanglement that sucks us into another’s ego.

December 30 Friday
With this Pisces Moon we need to keep attuned to the energy of our personal rhythms. This can be overwhelming as the Moon goes void of course at 6:37 am, MT, until tomorrow morning. During this time we can be easily influenced and feel lost. Let go of unrealistic expectations but don’t hesitate to visualize what you would like to feel today along with circumstances that are appealing. It’s best to dwell on possible, not impossible, dreams. Listen to MoonWise tomorrow on the worldwide web at ksfr.org from 2:00 to 2:30 pm, MT, for the weekend Moon Minute.

December 31 Saturday
The Moon moved into impulsive Aries early this morning, and actions seem to come in spurts and bursts. First impressions seem to get all the attention. Tonight at 11:15, MT, the Moon enters her first quarter phase, beginning a period of choosing to take the right action for developing some new habits that substantiate a position of embracing fresh soul-directed experiences. Sunday presents a new phase of activity which we can kick off with the quickness of Aries. This can call for teamwork and critical evaluation which outgoing Aries can handle but may overlook important factors if impatient.
