Don't expect too much
The Sun transits in dissonance in the fourth field in Capricorn , where it conjuncts the New Moon on January 18th. Mars has also been transiting Capricorn , starting on December 15th, and the fast-moving planets will join it one after the other: Venus from December 24th, Mercury from January 1st. Venus , your guiding planet, will begin a good trine in the fifth field in Aquarius on January 17th. As for the slower planets, Pluto is in trine to the first decan at the beginning Aquarius , while Jupiter in Cancer is dissonant to the third until January 11th, then it returns to involve the second. In short, it seems like a somewhat tiring period, perhaps due to an accumulation of commitments or a bit of tiredness. In particular, try not to expect too much (of yourself or others) on days like December 22nd, 27th, and 28th, and January 3rd, 4th, 9th, 10th, and 18th. The most effective days are December 23 and 24, January 1, 5, 14, 15 and 19.
Encouraging prospects
The dissonance of the fast-moving planets, along with the Sun , is accompanying a somewhat tiring period for you, perhaps due to too many commitments between home and work, or in general due to the fatigue accumulated during the year; a fatigue that likely weighs on your mood, more than your body, although it's difficult to know how much the two are connected or which one is affecting you more. Of course, I don't rule out the possibility of objective reasons: some worries, too many responsibilities, and little satisfaction. At times, you may feel frustrated, melancholic, feeling that your efforts are not appreciated and often not even recognized, in any case not sufficient to achieve the results you hope for, desire, believe—indeed, know—you deserve. Unfortunately, this is the case: sometimes external variables interfere with our plans, circumstances that involve us even though they are not directly within our control and over which we have no way of influencing. This applies to everyone, of course; but right now, this seems like an injustice we must endure, without even understanding its meaning or significance. Yet, your Venus will be the first planet to move into trine on January 17th (followed by Mercury on the 20th and Mars on the 23rd). In this sense, the only helpful advice for now is to be patient, accepting this phase as a simple—but not futile—pause for reflection, processing, and regeneration. Fewer expectations, more perspective!
The economic balances
As we've seen, Mercury remains in a good sextile until January 1st, helping you better manage pre-Christmas activities. In particular, at work there may be emergencies, deadlines, deliveries to meet, or negotiations to conclude before the holidays. It happens every year, with greater or lesser difficulty depending on the type of work or role, as well as your responsibilities, and there will certainly be some stress... but at least this Mercury will allow you to be organized, clear-headed, with a good overview and perhaps some valuable support. You could also take advantage of this to evaluate your financial situation and plan for the new year, not only in terms of planning but also taking into account the necessary resources, both practical and financial. Meanwhile, the atmosphere at home seems tense, with just as many needs and demands. Between work, family, and your partner, you'll feel called upon from all sides, you'll lack time for yourself, and at times you might wish you could find yourself back in February! It's a shame, because you love the holidays and would also like to indulge in their accompanying activities: decorations, gifts, strolls through markets, traditional gatherings with relatives and holiday get-togethers with friends or colleagues... but in peace, freedom, and without haste. Instead, this year you feel burdened by too many expectations, and it would be a good idea to at least reduce yours. Everything will gradually improve as the weeks pass: in the meantime, it's worth being content to do what you can.
First decade
Mars is dissonant until December 28th, Venus from December 24th to January 1st, followed by Mercury from January 1st to 8th. In short, it seems like the holiday season will demand the most commitment (and relative patience) from you! Don't add to the strain by feeling bad, and especially don't take it out on loved ones: a little adaptability will suffice...
Second decade
Mars square you from December 28th to January 10th, with Venus until the 9th and Mercury from the 8th to the 14th. Family and work commitments could pile up for you too, with some annoying setbacks not ruled out. Resuming work after Epiphany should be handled calmly and, above all, with clarity: the time spent organizing will be well spent!
Third decade
Jupiter 's square continues until January 11th, while Mars 's will be more incisive starting on the 10th. The fast-moving planets will also be dissonant: Venus from January 9th to 17th, Mercury from January 14th to 20th. Be careful because you'll be dissatisfied and more impulsive than usual, so you might say or do the wrong thing. Be especially careful with financial decisions.
