weekly astrology forecast | december 8th to 14th, 2025 - messy momentum


MONDAY - Mars squares Saturn

WEDNESDAY - Mercury opposes Uranus, Neptune stations direct

THURSDAY - Venus squares the Nodes of Fate, Mercury trines Neptune, Third Quarter Moon (20 Virgo), Mercury enters Sagittarius

SATURDAY - Mars inconjunct Uranus, Mercury sextile Pluto

SUNDAY - Mars squares Neptune, Sun trines Chiron and inconjuncts Jupiter (next Monday Mars will enter Capricorn)


This looks like a busy and potentially stressful week. 


If there is anything unimportant you can take off your plate I say push it into the trash can like last night's leftover pasta. Look at Mars - if you are an Aries or Scorpio rising (like me) this is probably even more important - he/we will square Saturn (authority, responsibility, time pressures, reality checks) inconjunct Uranus - adjusting to some kind of unexpected monkey wrench tossed in when Mercury opposes Uranus on Wednesday probably, then Mars squares Neptune - wet weather, head colds, drifting off course, self-sabotagey stuff from exhaustion. 


Mars alone makes the week look challenging!


Let's unpack it.


MONDAY - Mars in Sag squares Saturn in Pisces. In Sagittarius, Mars wants to go bold/BIG or go home. Saturn at the end of Pisces and direct now, says, "not so fast buddy". Mars/Saturn squares are issues with authority, limits, time pressures, boundaries, rules. There can be delays and REALITY CHECKS. Saturn has been here before, so we could have seen this coming, but maybe we didn't or maybe we just ignored it and now we can't. If our motivation dips - espec. with Sag and especially with that Neptune square coming - we will know something needs restructuring before we can continue. Saturn wants things to be lasting/sustainable. 


WEDNESDAY - Mercury opposes Uranus, Neptune stations direct. UNEXPECTED NEWS - collectively this can be about money/resources. Maybe coming through some kind of clarity. WAKE UP. Breakthroughs. Breakdowns. Break-ups. Our mind can be too active/overstimulated. Neptune direct can be like the tide goes out and we can see those amazingly gorgeous stones at our feet are just regular old rocks. Sometimes this works in reverse. Our psychic sensitivity is cranked way up.


THURSDAY - Now it's Venus's turn to square the Nodes of Fate - this is what the Full Moon/Sun did last week while Mercury trines Neptune then enters Sagittarius (whew) and the Moon in Virgo squares the Sag Sun giving us this month's Third Quarter Square before next week's New Moon in Sagittarius. 


Let's look at each aspect - Venus/Nodes is a karmic crossroads and brings tension/frustration regarding our money, resources, values, relationships and also maybe women in general. What/who do we want vs who/what is aligned with our future? Mercury/Neptune - and keep in mind this is coming right after Neptune stations direct for the LAST TIME IN OUR LIFETIMES IN HIS HOME SIGN OF PISCES - and right before Mercury enters Sag. Trines are softer aspects/the brakes are off - our intuition/compassion can increase to allow more connection. Dreams matter. Creativity/spirituality but also sensitivity can be high. The Third Quarter Moon in practical Virgo is a turning point. More tension/frustration. What isn't working? Sometimes the Virgo Moon comes in to say - take care of the small things (your daily habits, work, pets). If corrections need to be made before next week's New Moon in fiery Sagittarius, well here is where we need to make them. CLEAN UP THE MESS. Then Mercury FINALLY gets back into Sag after his/her recent retrograde. Scorpio season is officially/unofficially over. Take a breath. 


SATURDAY - Mars inconjuncts Uranus while Mercury sextiles Pluto. Mars/Uranus is restless/jumpy. SLOW DOWN. This is good energy to have an accident, so let's not rush. Mercury/Pluto speaks of potent conversations. Good for analysis. Truths that empower our next move/the future. A mixed day. 


SUNDAY - Finally Mars squares Neptune while the Sun trines Chiron and inconjuncts Jupiter. Mars/Neptune can be exhausting and bring low energy. Our boundaries dissolve (take some vitamin C), our resolve can, too. Our actions can be creative - it will come through tension/frustration though - or just lack clarity. Why are we doing this thing we are doing? We might not know :) The Sun's trine to healing Chiron is the way through, but even that comes loaded with an inconjunct to Jupiter who the Sun is answering to. This is healing through truth, confidence, stepping outside our comfort zone and then the inconjunct/rock-and-a-hard-place says don't take this too far. Over-optimism/confidence/over-spending - not a good thing. We might make assumptions or over-promise, and other people will, too, so just keep this in mind.


Whew - looks like a whirlwind week!


 I never did get back last week with Part II of that Full Moon - my family Thanksgiving Turkey "Brawl" that I thought rather nicely illustrated the "lies" coming to light/being illuminated which could be actual lies, the lies we tell ourselves, and in this case, the stuff we avoid talking about and have grown resentment around (avoidance is a kind of lie certainly and often a very destructive one). I will try to get that up this week and the Kirk stuff when we will pull in Candace Owens chart (amazing) and then we really need to start looking at 2026!


If things feel messy, let's trust the process (Pisces North Node!) - the adjustments, revelations and emotional highs-and-lows all serve as the start of these mid-course corrections that set us up for next week when the Sun follows Mars footsteps, we get a New Moon in Sagittarius conjunct the Galactic Center and start moving into a more sober Cappy season and the path that matters most should become more clear. 


xo all - please excuse any typos or nonsense.
