Do you desire a relaxed week with plenty of time for both work and fun? Then you’ll love this week’s astrology forecast, as the stars are bringing some pleasant vibes your way!
Only one major transit is taking place this week, but we’re starting off strong in sunny Sagittarius season – a time of adventure, freedom, and expansion of all kinds. As we soak up those positive Sagittarius rays, we can also look forward to an earthy Last Quarter Moon in sensible Virgo on December 16th.
Keywords for the Last Quarter Moon include action, manifestation, and completion – this is a lunar phase that asks you to consider what you want to attract, which steps you need to take, and how to clear a path toward your goals. This lunar phase leads up to the New Moon when you’ll actively begin drawing in the manifestations you focus on this week.Â
You can count on Virgo, an Earth sign, to bring the focused, fastidious energy needed to tie loose ends or complete any projects standing between you and your dreams. While this is a relaxed week astrologically speaking, the Last Quarter Moon in Virgo is energetic and driven.
This is the perfect week to find the balance between hard work and having fun. Enjoy the buoyant energy of the Sagittarius Sun, and then let the Last Moon in Virgo push you to clear away any obstacles in your path.
December 12 – 18 is a Week to Balance Work, Rest, & Fantasy
The Sagittarius Sun helps you lighten up and seek adventure, yet the Last Quarter Moon in Virgo urges you to do what needs to be done to move closer to your dreams. And you’ll need to connect to those dreams to help bring them into reality, so don’t shy away from spending time with your internal fantasies and dreaming up your most ideal experiences!
Are you prepared to work hard, play hard, and let yourself dream? Your instincts will guide you – just be sure to listen to that intuitive voice within.
