DECEMBER
2003 by Bob Mulligan
After
two eclipses and a very energetic Thanksgiving weekend,
we enter December with high expectations and lots
of uncertainty. We have lived with tension and change
at such a volatile speed for so long it is hard to
acknowledge that another dose of uncertainty can also
be offering us unique opportunities. There are some
things that can be done now to improve your life across
the board.
Mercury,
Venus, Mars, along with the Sun and Moon, are called
personal planets. All of these personal planets
switch signs in December, indicating a shift in our
private lives. These alterations are a byproduct of
universal changes that climaxed last month. By the
same token, personal changes that we make now are
helping to lay the collective foundation for further
big social transformations coming early in 2004. On
the 30th, Uranus, Lord of change, moves forward into
Pisces, further preparing us for collective shifts
in consciousness next year.
The
Full Moon is on the 8th at 3:37pm. Meditation and
prayers always have a deeper and more immediate impact
at this moment of culmination. Things put forward
on the eclipse on November 23rd come to their first
fruition now. Practical concerns are particularly
favored. It is a process of getting to where you really
want to be. It is not possible to hurry to a bottom
line right now. Persistence and patience are necessary.
The
New Moon is on the 23rd at 4:43am. This shows an opening
to some new and absolute energy. Old issues remain
difficult during this coming month, but it is possible
to solve some problems by being willing to try new
things in your private life. I might add, this will
not be easy as we are struggling against old methods
and habits.
Mercury
turns retrograde on December 17th. Its best to get
your Christmas shopping done before this as gifts
purchased after this time, especially electronic equipment,
tend not to perform as intended.
The
year ends with many people struggling to overcome
misguided responsibilities and to go forward with
the new opportunities which have been opening up during
the last few months. Good precedents for the coming
year are set now if we advocate for what we really
want.
