Fertile Void
A very spiritual and imaginative month. Time to connect to your highest self. Or even if you don’t have a spiritual practice, it is about identifying what is that higher power, Mother Nature or the Universe that you can connect to.
In Origin, this month’s theme is the Fertile Void. From an astrological perspective, the fertile void is like a Balsamic moon, the phase that is a sliver of a crescent before it goes completely dark.
The balsamic moon is a balsam of healing.
In the time of the Fertile Void, this is the quiet place of nothingness.
Nothingness isn’t meant to be feared. It is to be celebrated.
In the nothingness of the cosmos is where stardust is born, where new stars come to life.
In the nothingness the Universe creates.
In the nothingness, the Universe wants to fill with “new.”
So this month, the stars are on your side to create nothingness in your life and business…
So you can reflect honestly on all that has happened or not happened this year.
So you can revalue your deep emotions and most intimate personal connections.
So you can revision to be inspired again, motivated to believe in an even bigger dream.
So you can restore to fill your energetic cup again, fully rested, for rest is as important as work in an effective and sustainable way.
Yes, this is still about the practicalities of business. But even the most pragmatic need a bit of sparkle, magic and pixie dust to bring in the bliss and joy of the season.
A time where you are meant to reflect.
Restore in the dark.
Bring in the light.
Bask in the glimmer of all the possibilities.
This is the Fertile Void.
Where you trust that magic is forming out of the mystery.
In December…
Mercury, your ability to communicate and understand enters Capricorn and wants to get to the point and choose powerful words of love.
Mars, your physical energy and drive, enters Sagittarius and is motivated by inspiration and belief.
Venus, your ability to connect has you reinviting powerful collaborators and redefining impactful values during her retrograde cycle.
Jupiter, your possibilities and purpose, quietly enters its traditional home sign, of Pisces where it can luxuriate in feelings of visionary bliss at year’s end.
Lastly, Saturn and Uranus square off for the final time, ensuring that you have broken down your old boxes to make sustainable space for new ways of being.
It’s a time of reflection, appreciation, and restoration.
Enjoy this Fertile Void. In this mysterious, dark and quiet time is where you create a womb for magic to be recreated.

Week of November 28 – December 4, 2021
12/1/2021
Neptune direct Pisces 20°24′
5:22 AM Pacific | 8:22 AM Eastern
Move forward with Spirit
How do you now feel at one with your highest self / Spirit in your business?
Neptune, the ruler of Pisces, stops to move direct today after being in retrograde since June 25, 2021.
As an outer planet, the effects of Neptune are oh so subtle. It is only during this time a few days before and after as Neptune stops on Pisces 20°24’ that we feel the significance of this spiritual, interconnected, imaginative visionary planet.
Back in June, Neptune reversed at Pisces 23°12’, only moving back 3 degrees. If you have natal planets or angles near this 3° area in Pisces, your natal energies received a magical spiritual redo in your life and business.
Perhaps you now have clarity. Or maybe you find yourself even more confused.
And that’s ok because that’s part of Neptune’s job to dissolve what is no longer your truth. The truth that is of your highest self or Spirit, whatever you may call it.
Now that Neptune is moving forward feel into this mysterious, magical place and be open to receiving.
Look to your natal chart for planets or angles near Pisces 20°, as these energies will now have a new spiritual vision. For planets or angles near Water signs (also Scorpio, Cancer) 23°, these energies will add to your new spiritual healing.
And for planets or angles near Mutable signs(Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius) 23°, these planets will add creative friction to your vision.

New Moon Solar Eclipse Sagittarius 12°22′
11:43 PM Pacific | 2:43 AM +1 Eastern
Today I plant the seeds to expand the horizons of my business and brand.
Woohoo, you made it!
Thank you, 2021!
Time to make space to receive new visions for 2022!
With this powerful Solar Eclipse New Moon, let your last New Moon of 2021 intentions be free and non-specific.
Be open to the unexpected and all possibilities and wildcards at play.
With Sagittarius, you need to BELIEVE.
Instead of stressing over the perfect intention, create a vast intention to BELIEVE in the possibilities waiting for you in your business.
Believe in the opportunities coming in 2022.
Believe in the success that you have more than earned.
Believe in stepping into your highest potential.
Believe in your purpose clearly showing through in your work.
To truly believe, reflect and give gratitude to all that you have accomplished in 2021.
AND ask for more.
To receive more without having to overgive, overwork, or overthink.
Gratitude is your key to abundance. There is grace in everything, even the most challenging of circumstances. What are you thankful for?
And next, what do you want to easily receive MORE of!?
Visibility? Growth? Purpose? Impact? Profits?
Decide today that you already have abundance, that you choose gratitude and MORE from 2022.
Your words of gratitude and optimism have power.

Week of December 5 – December 11, 2021
12/7/2021
A day of square offs. Energy and tension are building. This tension is your creative juice to channel your imagination and take action on your visionary leadership. It is a day to take inspired, intuitive action. You may not have exact clarity, but each step you take forward today will lift your mental fog.
Mercury square Neptune
7:16 AM Pacific | 10:16 AM Eastern
Listen to your highest self
What new possibility is Spirit painting for you?
This aspect is very inspirational, aspirational, and imaginative. The more you try to grasp its meaning or logic, the more easily it will slip away. Instead, feel into this energy and think with your heart to get to your truth of what wants to come through in your business. Who says magic can’t happen in business?
Mercury Sagittarius 20° square Neptune Pisces 20°
Especially stimulating for Mutable signs (Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, Pisces)

Imagine your one-of-a-kind leadership
What past leadership frustrations do you now have the inner truths to understand?
You have been burned trying to take lead in your own unique way. Yet, now you have the inner understanding, strength and motivation to step beyond what frustrated you in the past. You now have fully integrated how things needed to go differently and are ready to take initiative again.
Mars Scorpio 26° square Jupiter Aquarius 26°
Especially activating for late Fixed signs (Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, Aquarius)
12/10/2021
1Q Moon Pisces 19°13′
5:36 PM Pacific | 8:36 PM Eastern
Act compassionately
What deep act of forgiveness can you take to show compassion?
With the moon at the 1Q phase and gaining light, it is time to initiate and take action on your goals and New Moon intentions. No more planning, no more thinking. Time to act. In Pisces, action is through your vast feelings, intuition and imagination with ease and flow. There is no need to prepare; just go.
Feelings or confusion may run high at this time, but this is not the time to escape or avoid. It’s time to love, empathize and show compassion. Maybe there’s someone or thing that you need to forgive in your business to create more space for you to believe in your cause? Maybe the person you need to forgive is even yourself. Be in flow today, whether you get this from walking, writing, meditating or even making music. Tap into this creative flow to guide you to where to take action.
Especially heart-provoking for Mutable signs (Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, Pisces).
Especially loving for Water signs (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces)
12/11/2021
A big day of merging and understanding with the Sun, Venus, Neptune, Pluto connecting.
Venus conjunct Pluto Capricorn 25°
8:29 AM Pacific | 11:29 AM Eastern
Magnetic, powerful long-term relationships
What are the most important relationships in your life and business?
Venus, your ability to attract the right people and resources in your business, and Pluto, your ability to empower, reveal and transform have their first meet up today in Capricorn, which is the archetypal energy of goal-getting, long-term commitment, and expertise. This dynamic, powerful meetup is sure to bring up all the facets of deep attractions, from power struggles to charismatic magnetism.
Venus’s extended stay in Capricorn will dance with Pluto throughout her retrograde motion.
It’s this theme of powerful long-term relationships centered around shared goals and project building that you’ll be working on now through early March.
For this first meeting, pay attention to the power dynamics in your committed relationships and long-term investments in your life and business. Note shadows that want to come to light. Note the players in your business that are as committed to you as you are to them. Note long-term investments that aren’t paying off.
Near the Winter Solstice and Christmas, you’ll get to revisit this energy with a different perspective. A revelation will be apparent with what needs to be shed from your current situation.
Find the meetup point of Capricorn 25° in your chart. The house that contains this point shows you where you need to re-evaluate your long-term relationships and investments.
If you have natal planets or angles near 25° of Cardinal Signs (Aries, Cancer, Libra, Capricorn), these planetary energies will add creative friction and want a voice in your revaluations.
Venus / Pluto Meetups
- December 11, 2021: Notice your long term relationships and investments
- December 25, 2021: New realizations about your long term relationships and investments
- March 3, 2022: New priorities and goals for your long term relationships and investments

Inner clarity on your vision
What inner comprehension do you now have about your soul’s path through your business?
Back in May, you were realizing your soul’s work and your business. You were ready to deny it and not trust your intuition that has been consistently nudging you to create and do something out of the ordinary! Now, 6 months later, you have that inner integration and see how your business is part of your spiritual journey, even if you aren’t particularly spiritual. You’ve heard and accepted the call with empathy and compassion. You are ready to create that vision with your intuition as a strategic partner. And yes, you can.

Week of December 12 – December 18, 2021
12/13/2021
A big day with two personal planets moving into different signs.
Mars enters Sagittarius
1:53 AM Pacific | 4:53 AM Eastern
Inspirational initiative
What will you do to motivate others?
Now through January 24, 2022, Mars spends its time in freedom-loving and optimistic Sagittarius.
Mars is now flexing its inspirational energy to move past old fears of showing up as the leader.
I know it hasn’t always been safe to be seen or to take responsibility, but you have a new purpose that can’t stay hidden. For too long you’ve held back your desire to initiate and motivate. No longer.
Mars in Sagittarius wants to go the distance and burn off energy, harnessing the physical drive. But the energy can sometimes not feel focused enough.
To harness this energy in your business is to inspire others to take action. Share your vision of the future to inspire others to join your purpose.
If you have a natal Mars in Sagittarius, you get motivated by freedom, exploration and spreading optimism. TBH, you have the ability to light the fire in others if your inner flame is lit.
If you have planets or angles in Sagittarius, as Mars drives through, expect a boost of energy activating your natal energies over the next 6 weeks.
Mercury enters Capricorn
9:52 AM Pacific | 12:52 PM Eastern
Practical, sustainable attunement
What strategic communications keep you on track for your goals?
Now through January 1 /-2 2022, Mercury is full speed ahead zipping through Capricorn. Mercury doesn’t need to dawdle here as this year you’ve been crystallizing your core messages and communications. In the next few weeks, it’s time to get strategic about your messaging and sharing/teaching of information to prioritize keeping track of your goals. Educate your team by sharing your ultimate goals to keep them focused. Send succinct emails and social posts to remind people to act.
12/18/2021
Full Moon Gemini 27°
8:36 PM Pacific | 11:36 PM Eastern
It’s the last Full Moon of 2021. In a way, a full illumination of the year-end and a clean sweep is at play as you get to intentionally release the over thinking and over doing of 2021.
Let go of over-explaining to make space for sharing your inspired message of love and understanding with the wider world.
Illuminate all the ways you’ve inspired others over 2021.
Let go of overthinking to make room for your intuition to speak and guide you along – yes, especially in your business.
Illuminate how you hear your intuition and how she’s led you so well in 2021.
Let go of overgiving to feel like you are worthy of the tremendous value you are already creating for your clients and co-creators.
Illuminate your impact to see the transformations your business co-creators have accomplished with you in 2021.
Week of December 19 – December 25, 2021
12/19/2021
Venus Retrograde Capricorn 26°29′
2:36 AM Pacific | 5:36 AM Eastern
Re-valuing your powerful investments and co-creators
What potent partnerships and investments need to be reviewed?
Venus is now officially in reverse.
Venus Retrograde asks us to realign our values, our connections, and our money. In Capricorn, it’ll make us go back and look at the values, people, and resources we need to build out our goals. Reflect and then go forth.
We get Venus Retrogrades about every 19 months. The last time we hit this style of reversal was in May – July 2020. This time it travels backward until January 29, 2022.
As a personal planet, we intimately feel its effects, similar to Mercury Rx, but thankfully with less tech glitches.
When it entered the shadow zone in mid-November, what did you notice that needs to be rebuilt in your values, which extends to how you add value, your connections (even though you just rethought this through during the last Mercury Rx) and your money situation.
Your values and relationship ideals are magnified. You see what needs to be reconsidered so now it’s time to dismantle where your partnership and investment powers are not balanced.
Over the next 5 weeks reveal any hidden truths or secrets in your unbalanced partnerships or investments so you can transform it all into something much more potent.
Look at the area in your chart containing Capricorn 11° – Capricorn 26°, as this is the area Venus will highlight in your business. If you have natal planets or angles in this area of your chart, they will chime in to express their worth.
Venus goes Retrograde on December 19 and moves direct on January 29, 2022.
Venus Retrograde Cycle
- 11/18 Enters Shadow – Capricorn 11°
- 12/19 Retrograde – Capricorn 26°
- 1/8/22 Combust – Capricorn 18°
- 1/29/22 Direct – Capricorn 11°
- 3/2/22 Leaves shadow Capricorn 26°29′
12/21/2021
Sun enters Capricorn | Solstice
7:59 AM Pacific | 10:59 AM Eastern
Return to light
What reflections will create deeper understandings of 2021?
When the Sun enters the Cardinal sign of Capricorn, we welcome in Solstice. In the Northern Hemisphere, we welcome the return of sunlight, and in the Southern Hemisphere, we welcome in the dark. This seasonal initiation is potent regardless of which hemisphere you reside. As the Sun crosses the 0° Cardinal threshold, it marks a place of extremes for all of us. The ancients would patiently wait for this day to celebrate the Sun ending the season of dark nights.
In your business, for Solstice 2021 make it a time of reflection. Yes, there is lots to do with preparing for the holidays, but I urge you to carve out some quiet time with a candle and cozy space to ground.
Spend time in your own body, feeling into your bones, feeling your feet extending into the earth and feeling your own sense of self-responsibility that you have built in 2021.
On the day of the Solstice, the Moon in Cancer, Mars, and Chiron wants you to reflect on how you can make peace with past hurts, whether directly in your business or personal life. These are impacting how you make decisions and take actions in your business—time to recognize the gifts that have come from those past hurts.
Venus Retrograde and Pluto are still cozying up this Solstice and want you to reflect on all your impactful relationships in your life and business. Those relationships that empowered each other that felt truthful and safe.
Lastly, Saturn square Uranus, which has been in effect all year, wants you to reflect on how sustainable a life and business you have created? Have you been resting as much as you’ve been working?

Innovating sustainability
What outdated social and systemic structures in your business are you now dismantling?
The signature that defines all of 2021 has the third exact square off today. When Saturn and Uranus meet, it is about evolving systems and structures that hold society together.
When they square off like today, there is an inner understanding and collective psychological breakthrough that leads to system disruption.
And with the big work that we as humanity are facing, this is a three-step process where we are at the third step.
Back in February, on a collective level, we noticed how broken our society really is. On a personal level, you saw how what you have built is not sustainable or equitable.
In June, you saw what exactly needed integration and repair in your life and business. Maybe you didn’t yet have the answers, but you had a direction in which we started to clear the path.
Now, we start step three, where we will act on what we need to rebuild to create a just and equitable social structure. And you will have the clarity for what you need to create your just and sustainable business.
What have you discovered about your business and how to make it more equitable and socially sound?
What have you learned about the outdated cultural systems that you need to break free from?
If those questions feel too out there for you, come back to your day-to-day.
Are you resting as much as you work? (To overwork is an outdated systemic fallacy)
Are you speaking up when you need to? (To stay silent is a systemic tool to oppress)
Are you still using high-pressure marketing tactics? (Yep, another capitalist system masked as just doing business)
It’s time to break free.
Saturn square Uranus 2021 Theme Overview
Collectively, we can look at all the social issues that still need just solutions or the environment that is on the brink unless we each do our part. In our businesses, we can feel this as the need to simplify. To focus on the things that will make the biggest impact and to work in a way that feels sustainable. We are all past the need to hustle. And in 2021, we get to choose how we repair the system, integrate the things we need to evolve and keep and say goodbye to the outdated.

Love and goodwill intensify (Merry Christmas to those that celebrate!)
New realizations about your most intimate relationships abound.
We have our second meet-up (of three) of Venus and Pluto today. Earlier in the month, you started to notice the impact of your most powerful relationships. Today, although it’s Christmas, your feelings may run intensely and you may have a different perspective on the most important relationships in your life and business.
Remember, Venus is your ability to attract the right people and resources in your business, and Pluto is your ability to empower, reveal and transform.
There is nothing to do today.
If you can, spend time with those you love the most and share how much you love them.

Relax and appreciate loved ones
The last quarter moon phase is an integration phase in our lives and business. A time to cultivate all that we have learned and assess what we want to continue with and what we want to churn back into the earth as nourishment for the seeds we’ve planted.
With the Libra 3Q moon, spend some integration time relaxing with those you love most in your life and business. Good to catch up with those you might not have seen over the holidays, even if it’s a quick phone or Voxer message exchange.
Connect today.

Jupiter enters Pisces
8:09 PM Pacific | 11:09 PM Eastern
Expansive imagination and interconnectedness
What will you dream and envision?
It is time to celebrate Jupiter’s return home.
Earlier this year, May 13 – July 28, Jupiter dipped its toes into its traditional home sign of visionary Pisces, and now it returns!
Jupiter is the planet that rules optimism, truth, luck, purpose, vision and philosophy. In your business, Jupiter is your energy for growth, expansion, exploration and increasing your reach.
While Jupiter is in its home sign, it is powerful and sensitive, giving you an energetic magical sensy-boost. Even if you don’t consider yourself creative, we all get a dose of his imaginative, illusionary powers. Add rainbow effervescence to everything!
While Jupiter is in Pisces now through May 10, 2022, expand on your work that benefits from your vast intangible imagination – anything to do with photography, video, music, and Divine Spirit. Pay attention to your sleeping and waking dreams, for this is where Jupiter’s magic will beam in.
In April 2022, we see Jupiter and Neptune meet up in the sky, invoking a visionary awakening.
If you have any planets or angles in Pisces, your Piscean energies will get an abundant lift as Jupiter spends its time at home! Woo hoo!

How will you share your deep love and respect?
Today you have to speak your words of love, beauty and appreciation.
Ultimately you are still in your Fertile Void, so snuggle and chat with your closest loved ones. Or if you find yourself solitary, write a love letter to yourself, your business, your life. Share and speak those words. Those words have the power to inspire in unexpected ways.
