It’s officially the Holiday season and despite the fact that NEPTUNE has been sitting in the Gate of DOUBT for months, making us question all things spiritual, now is the time to focus on what is holy in our life and by that I mean our family and friends! Because pomp and circumstance aside, isn’t that truly what the Holidays are about?
I have no desire to take away from the spiritual aspect of the season, it is a wonderful thing to reflect carefully about our faith at this time. That is the whole point of this transit and the Holidays for that matter. But just know if you reflect too carefully, The Gate of Doubt may challenge your faith. Use this challenge as an opportunity to question your faith in a positive way. Do you walk your talk? Does your faith make you a better person? If so, your spirituality will stand up nicely to the test and be the better for the analysis in the end.
Speaking of challenges, SATURN has been challenging our capacity for JOY since October 17th and will continue to do so until December 15th. Are you someone who allows yourself to feel JOY in your life? Do the simple things delight you? SATURN knows this is a choice and if you are not careful, it just might force you to learn just how important it is to choose to feel JOY. Allow yourself to feel JOY when the opportunity presents itself and more importantly recognize when that happens. Now is not the time to take anything for granted or focus on the negative. SATURN will not approve.
When SATURN shifts into THE FIGHTER on December 16th. Try not to allow this energy to put you in defensive mode with your family. Rather, be prepared to fight for the well being of your loved ones instead. FIGHT to truly connect this year.
Your reward for those lessons, thanks to JUPITER will be the POWER to multitask and thrive during this hectic season from November 9th to December 3rd and the gift of FOCUS (hopefully on the right things) from December 4th through December 29th, wrapping up the month in the comfort and joy of PATTERNS.
These themes are repeating themselves via JUPITER, SATURN, and the SUN for a reason. Enjoy this time for what it is. Enjoy your loved ones. FOCUS on the positive. Experience JOY.
Wishing you all the best during this magical time. Happy Holidays!
