Also on Monday, Venus, the planet of desire, gently connects with jovial Jupiter at 3:58 PM, and luck and romance are within reach. Later that day at 11:23 PM, Mercury, the planet of communication, harmonizes with warrior Mars, making it easy for us to follow up and so whatever we said we were going to do.

At 11:21 PM, Venus enters Sagittarius: Venus in this sire sign is more jolly than when it was in sultry Scorpio. Venus in Scorpio was a little jealous, while Venus in Sagittarius goes to swingers parties. We’re thinking about the greater meaning of love and aesthetics rather than our feelings about the two.

Saturn, the planet of time and responsibility, enters Aquarius on Thursday, December 17, at 12:04 AM! Saturn fares well in Aquarius, its home sign. Thank back to March, April, and May of this year—that’s when Saturn was last in this sign. It’s a big deal when slower moving planets like Saturn change signs, and only happens every few years!

Jupiter, the planet of growth and expansion, also changes signs this week, entering Aquarius on Saturday, December 19, at 8:07 AM. Jupiter changes signs about once every year, and in Aquarius, we’re all about expanding our social structures and taking care of our communities. This is leading up to one of the biggest events of 2020, coming up next Monday: the Jupiter-Saturn conjunction!

Also on Saturday, Mercury, the planet of communication, meets with the sun, bringing amazing clarity and news at 10:25 PM. This is a good time to put something out there and share your ideas. On Sunday, December 20, Mercury enters Capricorn at 6:07 PM, and there’s a practical approach to mental processes. The glass is half empty.
