December 5-11

Overall Color for the Week:    Crimson

This is a week of big movements and shifts, when energy will be pouring in.  This will not, however, be either a gentle stream or a flash flood, rather the flow will be erratic and temperamental, resulting in a general sense of uncertainty and a tendency towards anger.  Fear will be one of the themes of the week, so be understanding and compassionate with those whom you meet. Along with fear will be a kind of letting go of old rules and mores, so that you can see very unusual happenings this week, laws being broken and certainties being challenged.   You may feel yourself unwilling to accept the boundaries this week, responding in uncharacteristic ways to situations and people.  While the week starts on a calm note, it is important to take that time to center and ground yourself for what is to come.  The ride has begun, and there will be little let up until the solar eclipse in January which can bring in some light to shed on the subject.  There have been many reports of body shifts and changes.  This is inevitable, and it is time to analyse what is going on with yourself if you are feeling things out of whack, yet not attached to any specific pathology.  The energies of many dimensions are coming together along with a cleansing.  Some are feeling the effects of the cleansing now. Some are just feeling buffeted by what is out there.  Look at what is going on within you, then consider what is going on with-out you.  If you need attention, go for it.  Consider also some energy work.

On the larger scene, everything is falling into place for disclosure.  There will be this week, with more coming, events that have no logical explanation other than some kind of intervention.  Moreover, there will be appearing on the scene new charismatic individuals who just have that ‘something’ about them that makes you wonder…  The sense is that things will be falling from the skies this week, so be aware.  In finances, there will be more ‘good’ news. Meanwhile, small economies will find themselves falling farther and farther behind.  There are some strange things going on with the weather, so do not rely too heavily on what the weather guys are saying,rather trust your intuition, and if you feel the need for an extra layer, honor that.   Watch for news of flu and sicknesses.  There is going to be an onslaught of some kind of a disease factor that will be attributed to a specific strain, yet none of the symptoms will be consistent with that disorder.

Sunday, December 5:    Yellow Straw

New Moon – Set an Intention today and focus on it for manifestation by the Full Moon:    Things set upon today, agreements made, promises given have very little chance of ever coming true.  It is better, if you are looking for something to be done, to wait until another day.  Take the energy that is in the wings today and just be lively, be frivolous, enjoy.  There is nothing today that will last, at least on the surface, for wrongs done today and hearts broken will be remembered for quite some time.  This is a day on which much can be stirred up by little things.  Be aware of this.  Live only in the moment and no not read into stuff.  there is not much news in that, and you may find yourself reading things that are not there.    This is not a day to shun conviviality, rather if you find yourself out and about, watch where you go and what you do.  If you choose ton do some shopping, keep a clear eye on your expenditures, and be alert as to where you have your personal information, etc.

Monday, December 6:    Light Rose

St.  Nicholas Day:  So, Saint Nicholas is rumored to leave gifts in your shoes.  Perhaps, in this case, what it means is that you will find yourself going places and doing things -in your shoes – that will bring you surprises, joy, and perhaps even a little reward.  Do not discount the magic of the day, regardless of your beliefs.  Saints and gods and goddesses are merely archetypes molded into images and tales, handed down through the ages.  There is always something to learn.  The energy of the day is somewhat light and joyous.  Look around you for the things and people and just general stuff that makes you happy.  This is a good day for acknowledging that and offering a quiet bit of gratitude.  If you do so, you may just find that gratitude can be a two way street, and once again, something fun may come your way.

Tuesday, December 7:    Strawberry Blond

There is a bit of whimsy in the air today.  It can leave you feel a bit off center, even disconcerted.  You may find yourself easily distracted and unable to give focus to some of the tasks you are supposed to be working on.  The best thing to do is to allow yourself a bit of day dreaming when the mood hits.  If you do that, then you will be able to handle what comes your way with a greater sense of control.  Listen to what others have to say, but do not rely upon their opinions unless they ring true for WHO you are.  Your intuition can assist you with a situation that you will encounter in the late afternoon.  This evening, the energies are good for sitting at home and relaxing.  Take some time to appreciate what you have and to get in touch with your own creativity.  This will be of assistance as time goes by and you will be needing resourcefulness.

Wednesday, December 8:    Hazy White

The early part of the week has offered some time to take a breather, but the energies of the day can challenge whatever resources you have.  There is much unsettling news on the scene, both of personal and relating to the larger whole.  People will be somewhat unpredictable in their responses today, so if there are things that have to be done in committee, make sure that everything is clarified to the agreement of all present, otherwise there can be some repercussions.  In the area of personal relationships, be clear in what you are saying and doing, and be open and compassionate in how you are responding.  There is a kind of disconnect that seems to be affecting all.  You can also find it in communications, including computers, phones, electronic devices, and face to face.  Be alert in traffic.  And generally, just let things go.  Tomorrow is another day, and in the grand scheme of things, a lot of the little day to day stuff is just not that important.

Thursday, December 9:    Pale Orange

Last Day of Hanukkah:    There is a sense of tiredness in the air.  This can affect your work, your concentration, etc.  This is a day for clear thinking, so get into the left brain and think, consider, reason.  Choices made today need to be rationalized and analyzes to the point of definition of the minutiae.  Details are very important and can mean the difference between success and failure, between understanding and confusion.  This is a good day for setting up business deals and as everyone will feel the need to get things straight.  It is not a good day for emotionally based issues as many of the fine details can be overlooked.  Stay in your head today, and all will be well on that level.

December 10:    Dark Blue-Green

Mercury goes Retrograde:   Although many can shiver and shake when Mercury goes retrograde, in this case, it is actually a very good thing.  It is giving a breathing space, a much needed breathing space.  It is one of those opposite-game kinds of times, when you say one thing and mean the opposite.  There is this element alive in this retrograde, and it can be most beneficial if you realize that things both are and are not as they seem, and what makes the difference is the observer.  In terms of the energy of the day, it is a kind of plodding day when things will take longer than they are supposed to. You are going to feel yourself tired and you will not have the energy to over-react to things.  And this is good.  This is a day when things that seem to be in place one moment, are out of place the nest.  Words that are said in pone context mean something completely different when they are heard by another.  Sit back today and look around.  Observation is the key.  There is much to learn, but you do not want to get caught up in the confusion.  Lay low, keep a sense of humor, and let stuff just happen.

Saturday, December 11:    Bright Red

The Trickster has been about all week, but he will be making his presence felt very strongly today.  Keep your sense of humor as your first line of defense, and you will be ahead.  There is much laughter in the air today, but before joining in, it is a good idea to examine who is the laughter benefiting.  A lot of this is not camaraderie, rather a kind of self centeredness.   You need to see where you are in this spin.  There are things to be lost and things to be won today.  If you can stand strongly in WHO you are, there is much to be gained.
