moon-solar-eclise-Depositphotos_67517963_xl-2015This Week’s General Astrology Forecast

We start the week off with the Solar Eclipse New Moon in Capricorn.

The Moon is making auspicious contacts. Uranus is Station Direct adding tremendous oomph to today’s Solar Eclipse for an incredible new beginning.

Especially the area of your life where Capricorn is located in your chart is highlighted for change.

The changes ushered in by the Eclipses will play out for the next six months.

Please note there are upcoming changes to the AER service. In the New Year of 2019 there will be a paid membership subscription service available. A  FREE version of AER will continue to be published weekly. Details will be announced in an upcoming issue of AER.

BEST MONEY DAYS this week are the 8th, 9th, 11th and 14th*.

Best Money Days are days when the collective celestial events bring greater than usual opportunities. This may not translate into direct and immediate cash in your pocket, but potential for increase in your future prospects. Of course when these days are talking harmoniously with your personal stars the increase multiplies exponentially.

BEST ESSENTIAL OILS

vetiverroot-public-domain-300dpi_largeBest oils to use this week are the earthy scents that support the earthy energies constellating this week with the Capricorn Solar Eclipse. They’ll help you stay grounded through any sudden changes.

I recommend the essential oil:

Vetiver (Vetiveria zizanioides)

  • Wild Crafted Grown and Distilled in Haiti.
  • First choice for relieving anxiety and panic.
  • High Sesquiterpenoid content gives vetiver its exceptional grounding, calming, relaxing effect.
  • Restorative and revitalizing oil.
  • Helpful for relieving symptoms of shock and trauma.
  • Excellent for balancing the First Chakra.

Astro Energy Report Highlights

All dates are at exact peak of intensity when energies begin to culminate and wane. You may actually feel the energies several hours or even days or weeks (in the case of eclipses) before the Celestial Peak, Crest of the Wave, so to speak. If you have personal planets or points within 1-2º orb of an aspect that’s occurring between planets then you will feel that celestial event more strongly.

VOID OF COURSE MOON PERIODS

zodiac astrologyThe moon represents your emotional needs. Your emotions fluctuate with the moon as it moves through its 28-day cycle around the zodiac from new moon to full and back to new. Notice how the moon’s placement in the zodiac affects your mood and emotions. Essential oils can help stabilize your mind and emotions. Generally earthy scents have the most harmonizing and stabilizing effects on the emotions.

Void of Course Moon periods are great for taking it easy and going with the flow of events and completing projects. During Void of Course Moons your emotional body is going through a period of processing and integrating your recent experiences. You naturally clear out your emotions during these periods. Doing things that helps with this natural process are especially helpful now, i.e. relaxation, yoga, movement, hot baths with sea salts and essential oils, focused breathing.

Void of Course Moon Phases are not good for starting new projects, or launching new ventures, or having meetings (if you want to achieve anything), or signing contracts and making agreements as it’s less likely anything will come of any agreement, or it will be sluggish and slow to start.

For your New and Full Moon Rituals make sure the Moon is not Void of Course and in aspect to another celestial body when doing your ritual for best results.

  1. January 6th we have a 26 minute Void of Course Moon from 10:20pm PT to 10:46pm PT when the Capricorn Moon enters the sign of Aquarius.
