Planetary Transits

for December 20 – December 26

 

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!  Best wishes for a healthy, happy, and

prosperous Holiday Season and New Year.

 

Sun transits Sagittarius, from 03:59 to 11:06°, closely conjunct Mercury and

Jupiter.  This connects leaders and the

government with business, law and religion.

 

Moon transits Aries, Taurus, Gemini and

Cancer.  Moon, in Taurus, is exalted Dec.

21—22.  The full Moon is conjunct

Mars, under the aspect of Sun, Mercury, Jupiter and Rahu, in Gemini, Dec. 23 at

7:15 p.m. (CT).  (This

should be an interesting full Moon. 

Expect the unexpected!)

 

Mars transits Gemini, from 10:27 to 07:41°. 

Mars is retrograde until Jan. 30 and remains in Gemini until April

28.  This is an unusually slow transit

for Mars, which focuses business on the housing and property market.

 

Mercury transits Sagittarius from 05:27 to 16:37°, closely conjunct Sun and

Jupiter, under the aspect of Mars and Ketu. 

Be careful with stocks, business, and communications.

 

Jupiter transits its mooltrikona sign,

Sagittarius, from 06:21 to 07:57°, closely conjunct Sun and

Mercury, under the aspect of Mars and Ketu.  Expect setbacks with law and/or religion.

 

Venus transits out of its mooltrikona

sign of Libra and into Scorpio, on Dec. 25 at 12:07 p.m. (CT).

Venus is weak until Dec. 29.  (Expect an end to the strike by the Writers

Guild of America around Dec. 29.)

 

Saturn transits Leo, from 14:35 to 14:32°, outside the orb of influence of

other planets.

 

Rahu and Ketu transit Aquarius and Leo,

respectively, from 05:54 to 05:05°.  Persons with rising signs in the 5-degree

range, or with planets in odd signs in the 5-degree range, should be careful

and patient.
