HeartwingsandFriends.com - Tasha's AstroPlanner (December)

This is a busy month. It begins with a smile and good times on the 1st; the 4th 5th and 6th have energy to share and hopefully make good use of. Plan for it to go where you want it to go. Innovate on the 9th and 10th. The Gemini Full Moon on the 12th brings extra punch with a whole lot of strong aspects. Expect something unexpected, possibly with an impact. There is relative quiet until the Solstice which brings another strong jolt of energy to be directed toward any changes you wish to make. Be truthful on the 26th, make plans with the New Moon on the 27th which will set off a whole new series of activities and possible restructuring combining as it does with Pluto and Mars on the 28th. The 31st could prove difficult although it's all in how you handle things. You can think your way out of most difficulties this month, just stay alert, forget the old tried and true and instead pursue new ways of doing and being. Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, and may 2009 be the best year yet for us all.
