Core Theme
The current intense period, marked by significant astrological transits (Mars in Capricorn, a New Moon in Sagittarius, and the Winter Solstice), offers a powerful opportunity to discern and release unnecessary burdens, fostering strategic focus and sustainable rebirth rather than simply enduring exhaustion.

Listen, I'm tired and I know you're
tired, too. 2025 has arrived like a
punch to the face and most of us are
already dragging ourselves to the finish
line like we've been running for years.
This year alone has felt like an entire
decade, which let's be honest about
this, we have been sprinting. We have
been running. Like, take this in. The
word of the year according to Oxford is
ragebait. And if that doesn't perfectly
encapsulate the intensity of this year,
I don't know what does. But here's what
nobody is saying out loud but everybody
else is feeling. We're not just tired,
we're carrying too much. The collective
data is even showing us that stress
levels are higher than during co credit
card debt has hit $1.2 2 trillion.
22 states are in recession. And I'm
about to tell you that three
astrological transits are heightening
the stakes. We got Mars, which moved
into Capricorn on December 14th, a new
moon at 28° Sagittarius on December
19th, and the winter solstice on
December 21st. And these transits, they
don't offer escape from the weight.
They're offering something stronger.
They're offering the wisdom to discern
which burdens are actually yours. The
discipline to carry out your dreams
without breaking and the faith that the
heaviest part of the journey always
comes right before we break open. These
astrological streets are speaking to
that exact experience. I'm going to
practically translate what all of this
means for you, give you some prompts and
some exercises for how best to move
through this energy and by the end you
should feel activated and intentionally
guided toward the next step. So without
further ado, let's get into it. Let's
start with Mars. On December 14th or
15th depending on your time zone, Mars
crossed from Sagittarius into Capricorn
and something fundamentally shifts in
what your body can actually do with its
rage, its drive, and its desperate need
to make something happen. Mars and
Sagittarius, where it's been for the
past 6 weeks, scatters its fire across
crusades and adventures and
philosophical quests through debate and
meaning making. It's the arrow drawn and
ready to launch toward whatever truth or
meaning that matters to you. And this
energy is fast. It's optimistic. It's
expansive and a little reckless
sometimes. This is the kind of energy
that says, "Fuck it. I'm going for it
without necessarily having a plan for
what comes after you get there. But Mars
in Capricorn, she's a little different.
The fire doesn't burn wild anymore. It
becomes a forge, a steady flame that can
melt through rock itself if given enough
time. This is the archetype which
transforms from the explorer Sagittarius
energy to the architect daddy Capricorn
energy. This is from the freedom seeker
to the legacy builder. From let me tell
you my vision to let me show you how to
build it. And here's why this matters
right now. Mars is exalted in Capricorn
meaning that the planet operates at its
highest potential. Medieval astrologers
described an exalted planet as one in
his castle or stronghold. And the reason
why Mars functions so well here is very
simple. Mars is excessively hot and dry.
And when you place it in cold, dry
Capricorn, it cools down just enough to
deliver optimal performance. And think
about that. Mars doesn't do its best
work when it's burning at maximum heat.
It does its best work when it's
disciplined and steady and strategic.
This is where our impulsivity becomes a
tool and our rage becomes determination.
The scattered shots of Mars and
Sagittarius become even more precise.
Every move we make right now is building
towards something that will outlast us.
And I need you to feel what that means.
And what this means for December, we've
been scattering our energy for months,
maybe years, trying to keep up with the
chaos, responding to every emergency,
every crisis, every voice, telling us
what urgently needs your attention. And
Mars and Sagittarius said, "Go
everywhere. Try everything. Keep
expanding." Mars in Capricorn says, "But
pick one mountain and climb it all the
way to the top." But, and you know there
was a butt. There's always a butt. The
shadow expressions are equally potent.
Ruthless ambition can also be damaging.
The shadow side of Mars in Capricorn is
emotional coldness. Workcoholism where
your worth equals your output. And this
is where intimacy gets sidelined. Authoritarianism
Authoritarianism
rises through this transit as well.
where the need to control ignores the
need for collaboration. So, here's what
I want you to do this week as Mars
settles into Capricorn. First up, ask
yourself, if I had to pick one thing to
build between now and the end of
January, just one thing that would still
matter in 5 years, what would it be? Not
the thing you should build, not the
thing that would impress people. I'm
talking about the thing that would make
you proud of how you spent your finite
energy during one of the most depleted
Decembers on record. One thing, one
mountain. That's all you need right now.
This transit doesn't ask you to do more.
It asks you to do what matters
strategically and sustainably. The
collective invitation here is precise.
It's about structure. Plan it out. Have
some deadlines. Create measurable
checkpoints. Give your nos the same
dignity as your yeses. Trust that
whatever it is you're building, whatever
it is you're building has to last, but
also build it like you matter, too. Got
it? All right. Onward we go. We got a
lot to cover. So 5 days after Mars
enters Capricorn on December 19th, we
get the final new moon of 2025 and it
lands at 28° Sagittarius right in the
third deck. And the tarot card assigned
to this decken is the 10 of wands. And
if you know tarot, you just felt your
stomach drop a little bit. And if you
don't know tarot, well, let me paint the
picture for you. The 10 of wands shows a
figure bent over carrying 10 heavy
sticks that are blocking their vision.
Home is visible in the distance. They're
almost there. And the burden is heaviest
at the final stretch. Right. The title
of this card in hermetic tradition is
the lord of oppression. This is the new
moon asking us to plant seeds for 2025
while we can barely stand up straight
under what we're already carrying.
There's a heaviness. There's a weight to
this moon. And now let me explain why
this new moon carries so much weight.
Sagittarius is Jupiter's sign. So we're
talking about expansion, optimism,
faith, adventure, meaning seeking. This
is the archer shooting arrows toward the
horizon. But the third deck, the final
10° from 20 to 30 is ruled by Saturn. So
we're talking about limitation,
time, boundaries, endings, responsibility.
responsibility.
Sagittarius is spiritual and swift and
light, elusive, luminous. Saturn is
material, slow, heavy, obstinate, obscure.
obscure.
Jupiter wants to expand. Saturn wants to
consolidate. Jupiter says yes. And
Saturn says m not yet. And the result
here is Jupiter's natural optimism
weighted down by Saturn's gravity.
Because here's what nobody tells you
about new moons. Their seed planting
moments. Yes, but seeds planted in
frozen ground in December don't sprout
immediately. They germinate in darkness.
They wait. The intention you set now
might not show visible growth for
months. So, the seeds you plant at this
new moon. They might need some
incubation and protection. They might
need you to ask harder questions than
what do I want to achieve? They might
need you to ask, "What do I need to
release so I have the capacity to grow
anything at all?" And let me get
vulnerable with you just for a second
here because I feel this energy
hardcore. I've been carrying too much
this year. Projects I said yes to when I
had energy. Commitments I made before I
understood the scope. And every time I
think about 2026, cuz we're almost
there, I feel this weight in my chest
because part of me knows I can't carry
all of this into the new year. Something
has to drop multiple somethings. The 10
of Wands asks, well, which burdens are
actually yours? Which ones are you
carrying out of guilt, out of
obligation, out of some story about who
you have to be? Which ones are out of
dedication? and which ones are self
oppression wearing dedication's mask and
I know the typical response to this is
well someone has to do it how many times
have you said that to yourself this year
but here's the harder question does it
always have to be you can you share this
weight with others this new moon says
plant seeds yes but maybe the most
important seed you plant is the
intention to carry less of the burden to
build healthier boundaries, to let other
people step up, and to trust that you
don't have to be Atlas holding the whole
damn sky like you are carrying the
weight of the world on your shoulders,
but this earth ain't asking you to do
that. You can let go and she's still
suspended in gravity, time, and space.
Listen, fire needs air to breathe. And
if you load too much wood, the whole
thing smothers. Your ambition can kill
the very inspiration that feeds it. This
new moon is happening during the week
when most of us are already at our
limit. It knows that. It's designed for
that. So, seed planting while exhausted
might look like making smaller
commitments, creating realistic
timelines. All you need is one clear
focus. And maybe most importantly, it
looks like planting the seed of your own sustainability.
sustainability.
All right. Now, on top of all of this,
just 2 days after the new moon on
December 21st, the sun enters Capricorn
and we hit winter solstice. This is the
longest night of the year in the
northern hemisphere. This is where the
fire dies as the sun leaves Sagittarius
and the sun enters Capricorn slowly
returning northward. All right.
Mythologically, this moment is referred
to as the phoenix's gradual rise from
the ashes, marking a collective pivot
point for review. Coincidentally,
right around the time where we celebrate
the new year. But this moment it really
asks us what has to burn for new life to
emerge. What bold risks did you take or
still have to take? What were the
lessons, the adventures, the trials and
tribulations? And every ancient culture
has recognized the winter solstice as a
moment of death and rebirth. The Norse
burned u logs and feasted until they
burnt out, sometimes for 12 days. The
Romans, they celebrated Satnelia where
they suspended all social norms. And as
up as slavery is, this was that
time where slaves were allowed to dine
with masters, candle lit, to honor this
quest for knowledge and the returning
power of the sun's light. The Chinese
celebrate Dong Xi, winter's arrival,
recognizing this as the moment when yin
reaches its extreme and yang begins to
increase. All this to say that humanity
has been marking this threshold for
thousands of years because we understand
something in our bones. The darkest
moment is also exactly when the light
begins to return. The sun of course
enters Capricorn during this moment.
Capricorn being all about structure,
responsibility, legacy, mastery, time,
and endurance. And there's a paradox
here that I need you to sit with. The
light begins returning even as the sun
enters the sign of limitation. The days
start getting longer. Even as we enter
the season that demands discipline,
patience, building things that last.
This is where we make New Year's
resolutions, when we create strategic
plans, when we set foundations for what
we want to grow. And that's not by
accident. The cultural calendar knows
what the astrological calendar has
always known. Sustainable rebirth takes
time, hard work, radical honesty, and
dedication. But before we get to that,
before the planning and the strategizing
and the goal setting, we have to honor
the darkness itself. We have to sit in
the longest night and let it teach us
something. Because here's what we've
lost in our artificially lit, constantly
connected, productivity obsessed
culture. Darkness is not the enemy.
Darkness is the mother's womb. Endings
and closings are preerequisites for
beginnings. So, what if you let
something end this solstice? Like
actually end, not put on pause or
revisit next year or keep trying to make
it work. What if you looked at the
things that been slowly dying for
months, maybe that relationship, that
job, that version of yourself, that
dream that no longer fits, and you said,
"Thank you. You served your purpose and
now you're complete. The solstice asks,
"What needs to go into the fire so
something new can be born? What are you
still trying to resurrect that's already
ash? What would it feel like to stop
carrying the dead weight and to start
trusting the rebirth and sit with that?
Like actually sit with it. We are very
much like the phoenix rising from the
ashes, but the phoenix meets death with
eagerness because it trusts what's
coming. The longest night of the
calendar gives way for the first moment
of growing light. You don't have to
figure out what's next right now. You
just have to be willing to let what's
ending actually end. All right. So,
let's step back and look at the full
sequence. Now, December 14th, Mars
enters Capricorn and delivers the
discipline and strategic capacity you
need. December 19th, new moon at 28°
Sagittarius asks you to plant seeds even
with the weight you're carrying. And on
December 21st, the winter solstice
completes the Phoenix's journey. One
week, three transits, a complete initiation.
initiation.
Mars gives you the tools to build. The
new moon asks what you're actually
willing to carry into that process. The
solstice clears everything that doesn't
make the cut. And none of this, listen
to me, none of this asks you to be
unbburdened first. None of this promises
that December will suddenly feel
lighter. The teaching is harder than
that. You can plant seeds while carrying
weight. You can responsibly honor the
burden while refusing to be crushed by
it. You can absolutely meet necessary
endings with something that looks like
relief, maybe even a little joy because
you're trusting what's being born. And
the evolutionary framework here is that
your soul is being asked to integrate
your scattered fire into strategic earth
to test your vision against reality and
your faith against your discipline. This
moment is asking you to learn the
difference between dedication and self
oppression. To discern which burdens are
truly yours to carry and which ones
you've been holding because nobody else
would. Does this burden make you feel
closer to your purpose or further from
it? Does carrying this expand you or
contract you? Does it feed your fire or
smother it? These transits see through
all of it. They honor it and they're not
asking for more. They're asking for
strategic focus, intentional release,
and your trust in these natural cycles.
So, here's what I want you to do between
now and December 21st. First, Mars and
Capricorn work. Get out a piece of
paper, write down everything you're
currently trying to accomplish. All the
projects, goals, commitments, side
hustles, creative endeavors,
relationship work, personal development,
whatever. Everything. Write down all
those goals. Then circle one. Just one
that if you built it all the way would
make you proud in 5 years. Just one
goal. Everything else goes into the not
now folder. And you're not abandoning
them forever. You're just getting
strategic about where your finite energy
goes during this intense time. Second
new moon work on December 19th. Do a
physical practice. Okay? Stand up. Hold
your arms out like you're carrying
firewood, whatever. And hold it. Hold it
until your arms shake. Feel the weight.
Feel the burden. And then drop it. Feel
that relief. And then ask, "What three
things am I carrying that I could put
down before January 1st?" Write them
down. And here's the hard part. Actually
communicate to the people involved that
you're stepping back. Send the text.
Have the conversation. Make it real. And
lastly, solstice work on December 21st.
Light a candle, any candle, and sit with
it in the dark for as long as you'd like
to. Watch the flame. Let yourself feel
what wants to end. And don't force
anything, of course, during this
practice. Don't make it mean something.
Just acknowledge this year asked
everything out of me. I gave what I
could. Some things didn't survive and
that's okay. And as you start feeling
this shedding and purging energy, blow
out the candle when you're ready. The
light will return on its own. But honor
where you are. You've come this far. You
should honor it. The growth, the trials,
the tribulations, all of it. And
throughout this week, pay close
attention to your nervous system. When
you feel that weight in your chest, the
tightness in your shoulders, the
overwhelm creeping in, that's your body
giving you valuable information. It's
saying, "This is too much." Listen to
it. The most revolutionary thing you can
do right now is to trust your body's
limitations. And remember, you're not
failing because you're exhausted. You're
human during a time that would exhaust
anyone paying attention. It's okay to
feel this way. What's not okay is
ignoring what your body already knows.
Okay? So, I'm going to leave you with
this. Leave you with something to think
about. Not something to answer right
now. Just something to carry with you
through the week. Mars in Capricorn is
giving you the capacity to build
something that lasts. Yeah. The new moon
is asking you what you're actually
willing to carry into that building. And
the solstice clears everything else. And
then what? Who do you become on the
other side of this threshold? Who do you
want to become? I don't know the answer
for you. I barely know it for myself.
But I trust that asking the question
matters. That the space between the
asking and the answering is where true
transformation lives. Whatever weight
you're carrying is teaching you
something. The darkness is preparing you
for something you can't even imagine
yet. Trust that cycle. Drop what isn't
yours and build what matters. You, my
love, are a phoenix rising from the
ashes. And it's never too late to be
reborn. Go on, do this work. If you
enjoyed this episode, I invite you to
dive even deeper with me inside the
collective. This is where we keep these
conversations going off the feed and
into real integration. You'll get
personalized horoscopes, workshops,
meditations, courses, and a space to
actually process what's coming up and
not just listen and move on. If you're
ready to do this work with this energy
instead of just hearing about it, join
us. Links are in the description. Thank
you for spending your valuable time here
with me. And bye for now. I wish you the best.
