Cosmic Diaries Weekly Astrology: December 21 - 27, 2021

Welcome to Cosmic Diaries. This is Priya Kale your astrologer. And welcome to the solstice! We're in Solstice week, and this is your astrology for the week of December 2120 21. So here we are, at the end of the year, and it's been quite a year. And there are major aspects developing this week, suggesting the Euro is far so far from over yet. So we're moving through a dense patch of astrology between now and the end of December. as I record this, we're just coming down from the energy of a powerful Gemini Full Moon that peaked on the 18th of December, followed only hours later by Venus's retrograde station on the 19th of December. So let's start with this Full Moon because this Full Moon now over the next two weeks, we are in the waning cycle of this lunation and this lunation to place in Gemini. Gemini is the sign is an Air sign. It's ruled by Mercury. It's a mutable sign, and it deals with communication information. It represents choices or brings up choices. We've had the north node that's been transiting Gemini for the past two years now or at least 18 months. And this Full Moon was also the culmination of the cycle that began with the Sagittarius total solar eclipse on the fourth of December. So it would be it would be helpful to look back at what was unfolding at the time. And also look back to about June 2020. That's when the series of Gemini Sagittarius eclipses began. And this Full Moon marks the culmination of this larger cycle that's been underway. And, of course, with Venus now stationing in the backdrop of this lunation there's a lot coming to the surface with this full moon. There important conversations taking place information arising and although Gemini is generally mercurial Air sign, with Mercury, the ruler of Gemini now and Capricorn, Venus in stationing retrograde in Capricorn, and the sun at the solstice and Capricorn. This is heavy stuff we're dealing with, we're entering a period now as Venus moves retrograde over the next 40 days until the 29th of January, we're in the process of deep revaluation of our relationships, financial matters, our Creative Matters, as well as all matters of the heart. So wherever you have Capricorn in your chart, and the house is ruled by Venus in your job, which is Taurus and Libra, these three areas are under, you know, a deep transformation over the coming 40 days. And really as Venus moves Direct and out of shadow well until early March. And now what is unfolding is inviting us into a deeper process of reevaluation. So pay attention to conversations that have surfaced and the information that is surfacing. There are choices that are being presented to us and there may not be any easy choice, or seemingly so. But also recognize that there is no wrong choice. What matters now is that you're digging deep and aligning with your values, your core values and your integrity. Because Venus's station at this time, is a reminder to to reconnect with the heart. As we move ahead. At the time of the full moon, the sun was in Sagittarius. So there's a need now for wisdom and to stay focused on the bigger picture. With the Moon in Gemini Full Moon in Gemini at this time, whatever is surfacing, try to avoid going to extremes. And especially be willing to move beyond your own beliefs and assumptions and divide especially the beliefs that are divisive. And that doesn't mean that you don't have your boundaries. But it's important now that we're looking at situations with the heart rather than with the mind. 4:34 And moving beyond judgment, judgment of yourself and judgment of others or judgment of situations because as Venus stations retrograde and over the next over the coming days, there's a lot more that's coming to light and a lot more that come that's coming to the surface. So it's important that we're not prematurely jumping to conclusions. Then we can discover deeper truths. And what's truly valuable in this situation and what needs to be let go off
