Stellar Insights: December 12 - 18, 2022

This week’s sextile between the radiant Sun and structured Saturn gives us inspiration to craft vessel. Not only that, but we may find that rewards stream forth if we already have containers constructed, places in which valuables can be held.

The crafted vessels may also be helpful because without them we may find ourselves unmoored; that’s because this week the Sun also makes a tense square to dreamy Neptune. And with that, without having a trusted vessel in which we can sail the vast oceans of our emotions and the sea of what we’re able to perceive and see, we may find ourselves steeped in confusion, anxiety, and/or worry.

Using words and envisioning images related to water can be great healing agents this week not only because of the Sun/Neptune Square. It’s also because expansive Jupiter spends its last days in aquatic Pisces (it fully jaunts into Aries on December 20 after moving between these two signs throughout this year). As such, in addition to the watery words and phrases I’ve already used, consider using others as a framework for understanding. These may include:

  • being in flow

  • following the stream

  • surfing the waves

  • the tides of life

  • something’s fishy

  • allowing for the current

  • solvents and solutions

  • pulling up anchors

  • and others.


All the while, turn to your imagination, intuition, and sixth sense. Let compassion guide. Lose yourself in beauty but not in others. Be empathetic while being aware of enabling tendencies. And watch your boundaries: in addition to seeing where they may need support, also see if any of them are actually too solid, creating barriers to having you feel a greater sense of ease, love, and flow.
