Good morning!
I hope this note finds you warm and well. Where I live in Minnesota, it turned into a Winter Wonderland all at once this week. It makes me think of cozy moments with tea or hot chocolate while looking at the Christmas tree we always put up the day after Thanksgiving. Does it bring up the same feelings for you?
If you felt a little floaty this past week… fair. We had so many planets talking to each other in water signs that it can feel hard to keep your feet on the ground. Saturn also stationed direct, and this weekend Mercury will be doing the same—YAY! Hopefully this helps all of us move forward, or at least test out some ideas as we build toward the Full Moon on Thursday.

✨ November 29-30| Mercury Station Direct & Venus Changes sign
Picking up where we left off in the email…
Your mind may feel busy throughout the day as Mercury stations DIRECT in the morning and will be entering the Post-Shadow Phase of the retrograde cycle. Time to pull out your 3-Step Retrograde Activation Mini Workbook and record your ah ahs! If you don't have it feel free to grab it HERE.
With Mercury at 20° of Scoprio entering the Post-Shadow phase using your intuition, digging deep and trying out new things before committing to a new way of thinking is a perfect way to use this energy.
After the moon moves into Aries at 7:06 you may feel REALLY motiviated to get moving on things. There is an expect the unexpected energy you may feel thorughout the day in regards to your relationships or even finances and your dream world may give you insights into those same areas.
Venus moves into Sagittarius on Sunday from Scoprio. This may give you the energy of wanting to be a free spirt flirting and fliting to what brings you joy. Your imagination may be fired up as well with thoughts of travel and new ideas further enhanced by Mercury moving forward again.
💫 Inside the Between the Moons Membership, I’ll share which area of life Venus is highlighting in your chart, along with a Full Moon Guide for Thursday too similar to what we explore together in the New Moon Workshops.
✨ December 1 and 2| Aries → Taurus
Monday is a two-act day with an almost 9-hour Void of Course window in the middle. If your plan for Monday is to finish up projects you started before the long weekend… GREAT! This is perfect for that, especially from 12:14 pm CT–9:12 pm CT during the Void of Course window. It’s also great for meditation, moving your body in a way that feels right to you, and resting as needed. If your weekend was super busy, a little afternoon nap may feel wonderful.
Giving yourself extra time on Tuesday so you don’t feel rushed will likely feel really good under this Taurus Moon. You may notice a desire for deep, transformative conversations with the people who understand you most — whether in your closest relationships or within your friend group. You may even find yourself sharing ideas for future endeavors and mapping them out together!
✨ December 3 and 4 | Taurus → Gemini Full Moon
Most of Wednesday will still carry Taurus Moon energy, as she won’t move into Gemini until 8:48 pm CT. Before that shift, emotions may feel like a roller coaster — flowing easily in and out — with an added layer of “expect the unexpected” energy.
Once the Moon enters Gemini, we begin building toward the Full Moon on Thursday evening, peaking at 13° of Gemini at 5:14 pm CT.
This Full Moon also includes a Grand Trine in Water similar to the New Moon, though this time the Sun and Moon aren’t part of the configuration. Your intuition may feel like it’s on overdrive with connections to Mercury, Jupiter, Saturn, and Neptune all in play. Let your heart lead the way in choosing what needs to be released with this Full Moon.
Uranus will be opposite Mercury again — just like at the Scorpio New Moon. Now that Mercury is direct, new insights may seem to drop in suddenly, along with a need for deep emotional communication with people you trust. This may involve personal finances or situations where power struggles arise.
How do you navigate that?Come back to center. If change needs to happen and now is the right time, offer it up to the Moon for support. Nothing needs to be set in stone. Uranus doesn’t like rigidity anyway, and with Mercury freshly out of retrograde, it’s okay to try things out before you commit.
Growth and innovation often require stepping out of your comfort zone. This Gemini Full Moon can support you — especially through talking things out. If tension arises, how can you stay curious about what’s unfolding? Can you stay open to new ways of expressing yourself without letting resentments from the past creep in?
🌕 Reflection: What part of your life feels ready for a new perspective, and how can you stay curious rather than cautious as you explore it?
💫 Mantra: “I express myself with honesty and an open heart, trusting that clarity comes one conversation at a time.”
✨ December 5 | Gemini → Cancer
The after-effects of the Full Moon may be felt for most of the day on Friday, as the Moon won’t move into Cancer until 7:54 pm CT.
Throughout the day, you may feel pulled toward a new path based on the release work you did during the Full Moon. There is a beautiful aspect the Moon — and later Mars — makes to Chiron, which can amplify any feelings of healing you may be moving through.
Before shifting into Cancer, the Moon will square both Saturn and Neptune. If logical thought seems to elude you… yep, that could be a thing. This may show up as needing to remember when and where to place boundaries with the people you interact with in your community or even with siblings.
Once the Moon settles into Cancer for the night, your dreams may be especially interesting. And if you’re a parent or have pets, they may want extra snuggles as bedtime gets closer.
As we move from Pisces’s dreamy flow into Aries’s spark, settle into Taurus’s steady grounding, rise into the Gemini Full Moon revelations, and then soften into Cancer’s embrace, this week carries a full arc of energy. With Mercury now direct, clarity begins to return in layers — and Venus entering Sagittarius adds a playful, curious spark to the mix. You may notice yourself craving adventure, fresh ideas, or lighthearted connection as she shifts the vibe toward joy and exploration. Let yourself follow what feels expansive and stay curious about the new possibilities opening up.
If you’d like deeper support stepping into 2026 with intention, the 2026: Written in the Stars – Co-Created by You Astrology Outlook is still on sale through December 1. You can explore it below and see what the year ahead is inviting you into.
