We are heading into the last month of this life-changing year. We begin December with a very powerful eclipse in Sagittarius, one that is going to help us conclude a cycle, due to its transformative and releasing energies. A very healing month that invites us to move inward and heal everything that is still fragmented, for if we are not unified and healed, our new reality will be a duplication of our past one, with the same old outcomes. 

It is pivotal that we do not get distracted by the many tactics and manipulations that are the moment govern our planet, so we can keep focusing on what is truly important for our personal journey, as well as in bringing all the assistance we can to All.

This is a month for us to allow our soul, the wisest aspect of us, to guide us through a new destination, although there is never a final one, for our journey of embodying higher levels of love, never ends. A period of reflection but also of deep soul communion, for us to retrieve the guidance and knowledge required to transform anything that is no longer in perfect harmony. 

We have ahead a wonderful month for us to expand from within, and hence without, as expansion always begins with the soul wanting to explore and give birth to new horizons. An expansion that begins by our soul envisioning new paths for us to experience and that is represented the number 8 essence of December. 

Number 8 is infinite, where endings and new beginnings are intertwined. This is where we are at the moment, in the void where we commune with our soul to obtain more wisdom, before stepping into the unknown, for in our new harmonic timeline, the only way forward is to follow our own soul's oracle. 

Number 8, which is represented by the fiery tarot card of strength – a woman holding between her hands the jaws of a Lion (sun) – represents the physical strength that can only come through the power of love, wisdom, and balance, cultivated within. This is the perfect representation for the Wise Goddess of Love embracing fiery Leo, calming his wildness with her loving essence. 

The message is that all can be done through the power of love, all can be shifted and dissolved when our human self finally surrenders to a Higher Power that is within All things and beings and lets it lead the way instead of forcing/molding our reality with our egoic self who can only envision a small and limited view of what is truly happening. 

This is also a number that represents the infinite, for all is infinite in nature, and the only limitations are the ones created by our human minds, as it is the illusion of lack, coming from being immersed in a lower state of fear and separation. This is an opportunity for us to move inward and see where we still live in lack, where we still think that human resources are limited and can only come from the outside. For it is there where we begin limiting ourselves, by creating this same old story and by allowing its manifestation, in the physical. 

This is a month where many will begin to open themselves more and more to receive, for they are awakened and ready now to embrace higher truths. Others will move towards the integration of new ways of receiving guidance, embodying new aspects of their soul mission, and evolving within new frequencies, for they are already ready to go further. 

In any case, this is a month to descend wisdom from our soul, as it knows what we are ready to embody and begin to work towards a new direction.

Astrological alignments

We begin this new astrological month by having Neptune, the Planet of Intuition, and the subconscious turning direct again. Neptune can be challenging, as it invites us to go deeper into the aspects of us and feelings that we do not desire to visit. However, once we integrate our shadows and overcome any fears, we can resurface by being stronger, wiser, with a new sense of direction, and connection, to our inner guidance that we did not possess before, due to our egoic fear to visit the unknown and the corners of our souls that are in pain.

This is also going to be of great help for those who need to see reality as it is. As you know many times, we simply deny seeing what IS and focus on the many human delusions that cloud our understanding about what is already occurring in our human experience. If you are one who tends to dwell in the ethereal, in denial of what is taking place in your human reality, then Neptune will help you to bring into synthesis both worlds, understanding that both are equals and that can coexist if we desire to embrace both sides of who we are, not just the Divine, but the mundane one as well.

The next and most important planetary event of December occurs on December 4th. We welcome the second and last eclipse of this year - a New Moon Solar eclipse at 12 degrees Sagittarius. If the previous eclipse was the longest and was immensely powerful, this one is unprecedented. This eclipse comes to break everything that is not aligned and brings new life. The eclipse quincunx Uranus, together with the direct influence of precisely Saturn square Uranus, the last square of this year.

Sagittarius is a mutable sign, therefore it is about change too, something that the eclipse will reinforce and that many may feel as uncomfortable, as it can be abrupt if we are resistant to let go. However, if we choose to flow, let go when it is the time to do so, and renew ourselves, we will not experience the pain that often comes when we focus more on what we leave behind and is familiar, that what is yet to come.  

We all are going to be affected, at a personal and collective level, for we all are moving into a new direction, whether it is a more illumined one or any other personal choice we have made. The harmonization required during this eclipse comes with the New Moon sextile Saturn, which helps us to ground ourselves, be patient, wait before being too impulsive, and find calmness in the midst of the storm. 

On December 13th Mars will also move into Sagittarius at the same time that Mercury will do the same but in Capricorn. The Warrior Mars in Sagittarius is going to be eager to be free, so it can explore anything that it wishes in the physical. This is what we are going to feel if we align with this essence, the liberation that comes when we finally choose to be who we are and begin moving in our desired direction. Mars in Sagittarius, on the opposite as when it dwelt in Capricorn, will inspire us to act according to what we believe, rather than to what we feel, which often can be impulsive. 

Mercury in Capricorn is going to help us focus on the practical, descending our ideas and new projects into the tangible world, where we can expand them and enjoy them. It is important that we begin to notice how all the planets, the macro, represents what is taking place in the micr0 - a complete shift from the ethereal into the physical, bringing all into matter, where it can be transformed, healed, and expanded. 

On December 18th, we have a Full Moon at 27 degrees Gemini. Gemini is all about synthesis, as if we do not work with the process of soul merging, then there cannot be the proper communication between both our human and God Self. During this Full moon is where we have another opportunity for us to clear our mental body, communicate with ourselves healthily, so we can receive new ideas, guidance, etc., and above all clear, all negative programs, beginning to build a stronger communicative bridge with ourselves and Illumined One.

This is also a wonderful time for traveling. Remember that travel does not have to be just a physical one, as for the ones who are working with subtle energies and other worlds, know that communication can happen in many dimensions and timeliness, not just in a more tangible way. 

On December 19th we have Venus retrograde in Capricorn and on the opposite Chiron direct. Venus in Capricorn will help us all to evaluate our sense of abundance, which as you know comes from the love that we feel for ourselves and hence for All. A love that above all comes from recognizing ourselves as Divine Sovereign beings in charge of our own human life experience.

Therefore, if there is lack in your reality, it may signify that you are yet experiencing separation, due to fears, doubts, anxieties, or any other emotion that makes you believe that you are not worth it or that keeps you in fear. Everything is a result of what is inside. This does not mean that we should feel blame or guilt for what we create, but full responsibility, and the joy of knowing that we always count on a new opportunity to master that which we have not desired to experience. There is always infinite possibilities and when there is a will to expand and grow, there is always a way.

Chiron offers us its healing frequency for us to direct it towards the aspects of ourselves that need clearing, expansion, and rejuvenation. It is vital to do soul retrieval, clearing timeliness and energetic recovery, every time that we shift timelines, whether it is the New Year or any other time that our soul has planned for us, as it is of utmost importance to be able to do the shift, that we carry no past energy, wounds, pains or any other remnants. 

On December 21, the Sun will enter in the sign of Capricorn, celebrating the Winter/Summer Solstice, depending on where you live. The Sun represents our Higher Self, our Essence, so when the Sun shines its light into a sign of the zodiac and hence into a specific aspect of ourselves, it means we are invited to develop and work on this concrete side of ourselves. 

With the Sun in Capricorn, we are called to nourish the aspect of us who brings things into fruition, making them tangible, paying attention not only to the ethereal part of us but also to the aspect of us that needs to be nurtured - in the material - since they sustain ourselves. After all, the new frequency we hold is meant to be anchored within our dense realm. Capricorn also gives us equilibrium, so we do not fall into the trap of illusions, procrastinating the birth of our new creations. 

On December 24th Saturn square Uranus. The most important aspect of this year since February and the third and last square. This is something that only occurs every twenty years or so. This aspect is the one that is marking the planetary shift that we, as species are having. A macro representation of what is already taking place in our micro-universe - the need for freedom over slavery and control. This is an ongoing process that has been occurring for a while and that will be a turning point for all of us. 

There are many changes indeed happening in both a personal and a collective level, and this is just the beginning, even though the efforts of many to be otherwise, as humanity is embracing a higher level of consciousness, shifting slavery patterns that have been happening for years and beginning to retrieve their sovereignty. 

Lastly, on December 28th we will have Jupiter entering into Pisces. In a month which is all about descending the wisdom that in reality is already within ourselves, and anchoring it in our reality, we have Jupiter helping us to expand our intuitive senses, so we can commune with our soul, God Illumined Self, and begin a process, for it takes time and inner work, of conscious wisdom descension, which is a transformation that involves complete trust in what we are receiving. 

A process that comes too with the proper self-clearing, so we work to be a pure unfiltered channel, rather than possessed by our egoic desires, visions, and other human illusions.

December is a month for us to deeply commune with our soul, as this is where true communication begins, so we can be able to obtain a higher direction, purpose, and understanding of where we are going, and create next, for we, on our own, from our limited human view, cannot know everything that has been planned, in a soul level.

A month to enjoy our creations, all we have achieved, and look with enthusiasm to the new, for the best, as always, is yet to come.

I AM a Divine Soul wishing to expand through new horizons

I AM Divine Wisdom embodied into a human body, desiring to share it with All

I AM the Love that heals everything it touches

I AM the power that brings everything to fruition

I AM the light that illuminates the darkness

I AM sovereign, free, and fearless

And so are YOU

I wish you all a blessed December Beloved Ones,

Within Infinite Love,
