Let The Sun Warm December's Chill

If you're like me, you're finding the weather is cooling down and the days are getting shorter. This is a difficult time of year due to the darker season of winter settling over us and many people suffer from seasonal depression based on the lack of sunlight. But, I have good news for you! While I can't magically make the days longer I can offer some warmth and good tidings based on what's going on in the cosmos.

We have two big moon events happening this month. On December 4 the full moon will occur in Gemini. You'll be motivated to get a project finished urgently... and I am confident that nine times out of ten this will be a communication-based project. As we know, Gemini is mostly concerned with communication. Whether it's hunting for information, filling out legal or medical forms, or having an important conversation with someone you'll feel ambitious to get a project relating to communication completed.

The next big moon event is a new moon in Sagittarius on December 19. Archers have potent energy and you can expect that spillover into your life. Ever wanted to have a more adventurous spirit? Well, this is your time to shine! Your horizons are about to broaden thanks to this astrological shift pushing you to take risks you never would have before.

With these factors in mind I pulled a single random card: The Sun. Man, I couldn't pull a better card if I had tried! But I suppose the Universe knows best, doesn't it? :D The Sun is an excellent card for optimism, success, enlightenment, and one of my favorites... fun!

The Sun is good for relationships. Remember, we have some communication events happening in the first week of the month so this card will go hand-in-hand with those of you having important conversations. It's good for money, though you will have to wait until the end of the month to see this transpire. I'd recommend being a bit frugal for Christmas and letting your big spending wait til after the new year. The Sun card is also good for spirituality because not all adventures are physical. Emotional, psychological, and spiritual journeys require the same traits of endurance, bravery, and open-mindedness to reach a desired destination.

The Sun Tarot Card

So, let's start at the beginning. On December 4th the full moon will be in Gemini. This is going to spark a desire in your soul to take action and get a project completed. Like I mentioned earlier, this project will most likely be based in communication so you'll find yourself filling out those health insurance forms, doing the research to figure out a problem and nail down an answer, and if you're in school you'll be especially glad to feel motivated to get your essays and theses done! Woo hoo! Then you can enjoy the end of the school year without cramming the last couple nights.

With the help of The Sun tarot card you'll find yourself in a good mood as you complete these tasks. Can you believe it? Feeling accomplished, competent, and in control of your project are to be expected with this duo so when you feel it, relish it! It's a real blessing to not only be productive but to be upbeat while being productive. I feel like it's especially gracious of the Universe to bestow good attitudes on us this time of year because most of us are spread so thin and so stressed out it's tough to enjoy our precious moments. The Sun is bringing all the warmth and joy that it can to help your dreary chores feel lighter and your anxious moments feel more positive.

The new moon appearing Sagittarius on December 19th is the biggest event this month. Sagittarius has a particularly strong energy because it's a fire sign. Fire signs are known for high energy, passion, creativity, and adventure. This time of the month can feel cataclysmic as our goals broaden to the point of almost feeling unachievable. Except... with all this energy big goals won't feel overwhelming at all. They'll feel exciting! Doable! And the motivation to work towards them will feel like a burning fire that magically never wanes because the enthusiasm for working the process will in fact stoke the energy to keep pushing forward. It's a unique experience and one you'll be smart to take advantage of.

The Sun tarot card is going to be the "feel good" part of this equation. It's the driving force for feeling optimistic about taking on a new adventure. It's the positivity in your affirmations as you work towards that bigger goal. It's the factor that makes some of the most mundane work feel like fun. And it's a great sign that at the end, you'll have been successful.

Really, December will be warm and lovely inside YOU even if it's cold and dreary outside. I wish you all the blessings of the universe!
