The Week of December 11th, 2023: A New Moon in Sagittarius, and a supportive start to Mercury Rx

Episode 156

In this podcast, New York Times bestselling author and astrologer Chani Nicholas discusses the astrology of the week and what it might mean for us all. 

The astrology of the week of December 11th, 2023, features an imaginative New Moon in Sagittarius. On Monday, Mercury (the planet of communication) sextiles Venus (the planet of love), helping us to communicate in affirming ways that solidify our bonds. On Tuesday, there’s a New Moon in Sagittarius square Neptune (the planet of illusions), prompting us to daydream about our highest ideals. Also on Tuesday, Mercury stations retrograde, triggering the usual snafus and miscommunications — but with a supportive twist since it is happening between Venus and Jupiter. On Saturday, the Sun squares Neptune, encouraging us to take a sweet and adventurous escape. Use this time to reflect on the past year and ease into the last few weeks of 2023.
