Mercury visits Sagittarius 12 Dec 2018- 6.43 pm EST to 04 Jan 2019- 10.40 pm EST

Mercury (our thoughts and perceptions) has now left Scorpio (emotional intensity) and we should all begin to feel “a lightness of being”. Mercury was retrograde (review and revision) Nov 16 to Dec 06 in Sagittarius (our belief system) and Scorpio (transformation and release). We were all being asked to discover our inner truth and live it with Loving kindness for all.

That search for the truth now becomes a vision quest. While Mercury visits Sagittarius he is guided by Jupiter also in Sagittarius (expansion and growth of your spiritual vision). Mercury and Jupiter in Sagittarius will support us to manifest whatever we are focused on. It will be important to identify what we want to create. If we focus on what we do not want Jupiter will just bring us more of what we do not want. Be aware of what you are thinking. Thoughts are energy that attracts like energy.

Dec 21/22 is the Solstice Point. Winter in the Northern Hemisphere. The longest night and shortest day. We enter the North Direction on our Medicine Wheel, the place of introspection and translating knowledge into wisdom. This is Summer Solstice in the Southern Hemisphere. Shortest night and longest day. You enter the South Direction on your Medicine Wheel, the place of expansion and growth guided by intuitive wisdom. At Solstice Time Venus in Scorpio will trine Neptune in Pisces (mystical vision) and Mercury will merge with Jupiter in Sagittarius (Higher Consciousness). It will be an auspicious Solstice Gateway.

Our Animal Totem guides for this Sagittarius journey are Elk, strength, stamina, and support of community, and Owl, the wisdom to see through deception and discern the truth. The Clan Mother is Gives Praise. She teaches us to be grateful for the truth. (The 13 Original Clan Mothers by Jamie Sams).

We will write more in the coming weeks about the planetary dance. But Jan 03 to 05, 2019 is an important time. As Mercury gets ready to leave Sagittarius he aligns with the Galactic Center (Cosmic Wisdom) and trines Uranus in Aries (breakthrough to the authentic self and new inspired beginnings). He enters Capricorn (Sacred Purpose) on Jan 04 and on Jan 05 there is a Solar Eclipse in Capricorn (spiritual empowerment) that promises a humanitarian focus for the following six months. WE CAN CHANGE THE WORLD.

Namaste and blessings,

Dale
