“Thank You” is the only affirmation you need to attract what you desire to receive. ~AstroNana
December 2024
Hello Dear Friends and Readers!
Welcome to the last months of this year of 2024. It’s been a stressful year for so many reasons. Are you ready to sit back, relax, and allow yourself to heal from the tensions you’ve gone through? Are you ready to begin to feel more optimistic? Are you ready to look forward to the changes you will see within your own life and the world?
The past 4 years of our life were very stressful. It seemed like on a daily basis we never knew what situations would go on that could cause our lives to change in ways that we may have felt concerned and uncertain about. Looking back upon the past 4 years, when the vibrations were so intense, what did you personally learn about your life and yourself?
Are you becoming more aware now of what you desire within every area of your life? Is what you desire now the same as what you’ve desired before or have your desires changed over the years?
One of the biggest lessons we have all learned is that life is precious, your life is precious, all of life and nature is precious…and it’s up to each one of us to enjoy life and protect life to the best of our abilities.
Becoming more ‘mindful’ each moment of each day, focusing on what we enjoy most with the most enthusiasm helps to attract more positive events/situations/circumstances /opportunities into our lives that we can feel the most grateful for. The choice is always yours on what you desire to focus upon, to be more mindful about, that you desire to attract more of.
This month of December can help us to become more aware of what is most important in our personal lives and what we soulfully desire for the world. As you baby step by baby step make even the smallest of improvements the more joyful you can feel…which sends joyful vibrations out into the world. Never underestimate how important your own thoughts, feelings, and energy can be in creating the changes you wish to see in your own life and in the world.
Yes we’ve all experienced much negative energy, challenging experiences, and worldly situations over the past 4 years. Those happened to help us to Rise Above them, know our own Truth, and choose if we wanted to absorb the negative energies or soulfully transform them into hope, love, better beliefs, grander ideas and solutions, natural healing remedies, a stronger sense of faith, and know our inner abilities towards being optimistic even in the face of chaos.
As we move through the energies of December 2024 keep in mind that many astrological energies are shifting for the better. The eclipses we’ve gone through this year have made us aware of what we desired to release out of our lives (old beliefs taught to us by our ancestors regarding who we are and how we should be; North Node in Aries/South Node in Libra) so that we could feel what beliefs and behaviors no longer serve our highest good while moving our lives forward towards becoming who we soulfully are meant to be.
With Pluto moving out of the sign of Capricorn, where it has been since late November of 2008, and into the more optimistic, solution orientated, creatively unique sign of Aquarius our focus becomes on the future. Who are you now? Who do you desire to be a year from now? How do you vision your life to be over the course of the next 20 years? The time is now to focus your mind and heart upon enjoying your life more in healthier ways. Pluto in Aquarius also asks us to surround ourselves with like-minded people who can join together and create new humanitarian groups that can create positive new ideas, solutions, inventions, and healing modalities.
The old days of working hard, because that’s what you’re supposed to do (because if you don’t what will people think of you?) is coming to an end. Now comes a time to work smarter not harder while choosing to earn your income with your own unique talents that you enjoy sharing with others. Even within the corporate world can you choose a job position where your personal talents can shine bright and be appreciated? You may find that many people will choose to open their own businesses and hire other like minded people to create wonderful new products that they believe in.
Those who work in service orientated careers can do exceptionally well! Pluto in Aquarius desires you to use your personal skills to create the type of life that you desire most. Don’t be afraid to let your talents shine forth! You will be amazed when you finally see that you can make a good living by sharing your unique talents with others.
Those of you staying at home, raising a family and/or taking care of your pets, have an important job to do. It’s not easy and can be very challenging, but it’s through your nurturing energy towards others that you are also nurturing yourself and earning much good fortune.
When we talk about money keep in mind that it’s really an energy exchange. The amount of time, effort, talents that you put into your work, other’s lives, and life itself is meant to return to you 10 fold…especially if your attitude is positive and you enjoy what you’re doing. The type of attitude, energy, and thoughts that you put into anything that you do determines what you’re going to receive in return. Knowing this, when you feel resistant you’re only limiting your opportunities. When those times arrive, as they always do, when you’re feeling resistant about anything you do…honor your feelings…take a step back…wait for the resistant feelings to pass and then turn into a more creative desire to do that task. Give yourself permission to rest, to do a bit less, whenever you need to. It’s perfectly okay to take good care of yourself, and your feelings first before barging ahead to do whatever it is that you think you need to do. By taking time out for yourself you may see that you can come up with a better, more inspired creative way, to do what needs to get done.
The most important thing to remember is that who and what you choose to focus your attention upon. with the type of attitude and effort you put into that, is exactly what you will receive in return. Your new challenge is to ask yourself, “Can I allow myself to enjoy my life more without allowing my fears to intrude upon my progress? Can I actually allow myself to focus upon what I enjoy most and enjoy the moments/months/years of my life to the best of my abilities; while still taking the time to nurture those who need me so much?” The answer is “Yes!” You can enjoy your life while enjoying helping others to live their lives in better ways too. Take your life. Don’t allow yourself to get impatient. Whenever you feel overwhelmed give yourself permission to slow down even more. You are important. Your feelings do matter! Yes you love others and you may often put their needs before your own. From this point of time onwards taking good care of yourself first has to be your 1st priority. Then when you feel your own happiness emerge you’ll be in the perfect energetic alignment to assist others.
No matter what is going on in the lives of those you love (remember they are learning too in ways that are best for them) and out in the world (we are all learning collectively how to unite our thoughts/time/energy/feelings for improvements) you can be a magnificent healer within your own life which will energetically shine out towards others. “Be the change that you desire to see in the world” is the very best motto for these times we are living through.
You can do this slowly, one minute at a time, which is being shown to us as the planet Mars moves into retrograde motion (first in the sign of Leo; ruled by the Sun, activating your own Sun Sign (personal solar power) to become more genuinely who you are) starting on December 6th (also the shadow of Mars retrograde can be felt weeks before) and will continue to be retrograde (moving back into the nurturing sign of Cancer on January 6th) and will remain in retrograde motion (directing the energy inwards) until Mars stations direct on February 23rd 2025.
To sum that all up in an easier way, for this last month of 2024, we are being asked to do some self-reflection and realize what areas of our Solar Selves (your Sun sign which is your willpower/ego/survival/fears/beliefs/personality) may need healing and positive adjustments. Wherever Mars goes (direct and retrograde) is where energy flows. In retrograde motion it’s first our attitudes towards ourselves (mentally and physically) that need healing….then back in the sign of Cancer starting on January 6th it will be our emotions that will need evaluation and healing; from the stress and false beliefs that we have experienced and endured since our birth..
Simple enjoyable practices like journaling, meditation, yoga, alternative natural healing remedies, counseling therapies, creative crafts, and so much more are all very beneficial. What can you do in your own personal life that can help you to feel healthier, happier, and more positively focused.
As we moved through the Sun signs of Scorpio in November (overcoming fears for new opportunities to appear), then into Sagittarius (realigning our beliefs towards what feels more hopeful and is more valuable to our Spirit) and Capricorn (building a more solid foundation in our lives by first getting rid of what is no longer needed) can all help us to focus our minds and hearts on what we appreciate, cherish, and enjoy the most.
Simply said…all of the changing planetary vibrations, and the aspects to them, for December Through February 23rd, when Mars stations direct, are showing us that we can simplify our lives by focusing our attention and energy on what is most important.
Everyone has been battling conflicts in their lives; you have too. Give yourself permission to relax, meditate, journal write, and get more sleep. Try to keep your daily chores as light aw possible as you move through the healing energies over the next few months.
Any heartache you may feel is only temporary. There’s a new path before you that can lead you towards more calm, ease, love, better health and financial prosperity.
Be patient. allow the healing energy in. Be aware each day of the smallest of improvements you feel. When you focus on what you truly desire and enjoy, in the healthiest of ways, you will see new opportunities opening up for you. Slowly, one small step after another, you will know that you are heading in the right direction. Be patient with yourself. Be patient with others; they are going through their own inner battles too. Then when you are ready you will want to share your joy with others in many abundant ways; which will be very healing for you and for those you care about most.
The holiday season can be enjoyable for yourself and your loved ones by treating others as you desire to be treated; without expecting them to have to treat you in a certain way. Your intention to create a wonderful holiday for others can help you to attract loving abundance into your own life as well.
By the time the New Year arrives you’ll be ready to look forward to a brand new year and a brand new cycle of your life with more enthusiasm.
Be willing to let go of what no longer serves your highest good. Most often these are false beliefs and behaviors that you learned in your childhood. Forgive yourself for everything that you wished you could have done differently. Your past doesn’t define who you are now nor who you are growing to be. It’s your life. You get to choose how you desire to live. Others do too for their own lives that God gave them.
God gave you your life and put you in charge of it. How are you doing with taking good care of your life and yourself? Are you happy yet? Are you following your inner joy? If you said, “Yes!” then you are on the right path. If not you soon can be. Take the time needed, all the time you desire, for self-reflection until you you become more aware of what happiness looks like for you. Then baby step by baby step, minute by minute, you can move yourself forward on the prosperous path of your life that you’re meant to live.
Let the healing light in!
