We wanted to share some interesting
facts. This new moon will be a micro moon. The moon will be the furthest in its orbit (apogee)
from earth. Legends associated micro moons
with increased issues with mental illness, and natural disasters are more
likely. It will be interesting to see if
this legend holds any truth. We also
note that the tides will be affected less by the Moon and Sun during the micro
moon as the Moon is further away and has less influence. As a result, the tides can be up to two
inches less under this micro moon influence.
The New Moon, as mentioned in previous
posts, are about new starts. They are
the time of planting new personal seeds.
This New Moon in Sagittarius speaks in terms of optimism and positive
changes. There are no challenging
transiting aspects to this placement currently.
This positioning is part of a Stellium with the Sun, (Moon), Saturn and
Venus. As result of this Stellium, there will be a heavy
influenced of the energies of Sagittarius.
The Sagittarius New Moon (at 1:30 a.m. EST
December 18, 2017) will be 26 degrees. Venus
is at 21 degrees while Saturn is at 29 degrees, all in Sagittarius.
Saturn is in the final degree of
Sagittarius and will move into Capricorn on December 21, 2017. Many Astrologers have noted that any planet
in its final degree of any sign signifies a degree of urgency linked with the
energies of the sign, its sign position and also the house which it is located
in.
Venus has an affiliation with love and
romance, often with money and things of beauty.
In general, Venus is a very favourable planet. When linked with the Moon and the Sun, there
is a likelihood of a union, potentially involving love and affection. It can be friendship and does not necessarily
have to be romantic in nature, but the potential for love and affection is very
high.
Saturn can bring security and stability
into the picture and also makes the relationship serious, even commitment
oriented (if this is in connection with a love relationship). Saturn could have the same effect on
friendships of significance and also finances, under this influence. Review your chart or consult an Astrologer to
see what house is being influenced to obtain a better feel for what these
energies may be indicating.
Uranus is also tied into this configuration
by trine. Uranus is at 24 degrees in the
sign of Aries. Aries likes to move
forward and take a leading role in situations.
Uranus often speaks of new starts and a push in new directions. Uranus is the awakener of the Zodiac and
pushes for change and stimulates us to push forward on a path that might not
have been in place before this influence.
Sometimes the changes stimulated by Uranus are unexpected and erratic,
but when in trine to this position, it proposes positive change and a path
often leading to better things. Attitude
will play an important part of what is taking place as Mercury although almost
out of its orb of influence is also in Sagittarius at this time.
Sagittarius is a sign linked to religious
beliefs, philosophy and higher learning often from a spiritual
perspective. It is often accompanied by
positivity and a broad outlook. Although
Saturn is involved in the process, the perspective should not be narrow in any
way although it might be somewhat changeable.
Sagittarius wants to explore new horizons and Uranus pushes for
something new to come out of these changes that are often a requirement of the
soul’s contract.
This whole process looks very promising and
offers possibilities that should be explored.
See where this takes you. As
always, much will depend on the overall condition of this placement when linked
to the natal chart. The natal chart
always tells the full story.
