Astrology of the Moon Signs Forecast for December 25 Through 31, 2011

The new moon astrology is with you this week. Gracing Christmas Day, a higher energy level begins to take effect. A Capricorn moon rules Christmas as the Sagittarius moon transitions to a heavily aspected Capricorn (Pluto conjunction.). As it were, Christmas Day has the feel of a material focus finding its translation to a spiritual essence.

The Aquarius moon midweek brings an emphasis on humanity and concerns for the brotherhood of man. Three days of kindly Aquarius won't favor mundane accomplishments, but planning the new month's activities may work out well. Meditation, scientific study, kindness toward others is the vanguard. A tidy ending of the 31 calendar days steps us into January.

Outer planet overview: The good news is that Mercury in Sagittarius has moved forward after a spell of retrograde motion that skewed communication and created confusion in the areas of travel, or travel plans. Sag retrograde is often a cause of writer's block, or stilted efforts concerning innovation. Hopefully, the issues between journalists and police at the Occupy Wall Street protest will come to good resolve.

The astrology of the moon signs is an overall description of an emotional climate. This forecast is variable like the weather. With the moon being the closest celestial body to earth, the effect is somewhat general because the moon passes so quickly. The days and nights dissolve into each other at either end of a two or three day transit.

The times are modified depending on the hemisphere. If the Moon sign and your birth sign match, it's usually a perk.

Note that the colors listed with the sign are good colors to wear on the synchronizing days that are compatible with the moon sign mood. These are also good colors to add to a meditation.

Creative endeavors have a smooth flow with the new moon phase lending to the patience factor. Beauty treatments like a scented bath, or skin care are recommended. Writing, especially poetry, finds an open avenue on these two days.

A note for a Happy New Year's Eve - Pisces rules altered states of consciousness. Drinking included. Watch out for inebriated drivers or party guests since overdoing is the tendency.
