Included is a list of some of the general transits we will all experience, should we live to the ages at which they normally occur, and some personal reflections on what it’s like to live through some turbulent cosmic currents happening all at once.
Coming to astrology from a background in tarot, I remember looking at my first charts and thinking I might as well be trying to read Greek. I was accustomed to pictorial representations that resonated with archetypal experiences in the human condition and were more directly related to the symbolism I had studied in my art history courses. Still, learning the tarot involved a degree of memorization—the order of the first 22 major arcana cards, which suits corresponded to which element, etc. And so, with learning to read a system that uses a language of glyphs, memorization, at first, is key. After all, that’s what we do in Kindergarten and 1st grade. We memorize the letters of the alphabet, their shapes, and their sounds. Then we learn to put them together and form words. Then we learn to put those words together and build sentences.
In December, when the world descends into its darkest days, Narcissus tazetta aka narcissus paperwhite flowers bloom making them one of the two birth flowers for the month. Holly is the other December flower. These delicate white blossoms with their golden centers hold a profound mythological significance—they are the very flowers Persephone was picking when Hades abducted her into the Underworld. The timing is no coincidence. As December’s birth flower, the narcissus marks the deepest point of winter’s descent, mirroring Persephone’s own journey down into the realm of shadows. She was drawn to their beauty, their fragrance, and in that moment of reaching for them, the earth opened and she was pulled into darkness.
Hey y'all, in this video, I dive into the significant astrological shifts happening this year, particularly with the outer planets and their collective energy. I emphasize the importance of understanding how these transits can impact our personal lives by looking at our natal charts, and I guide you on how to use Astro.com and Astro-Seek to pull up your charts.
