This is a quieter week and that feels deeply appropriate. Across many spiritual and faith traditions, this is a time of holy pause—a moment when outer striving softens and inner meaning comes forward.Rather than dramatic turning points, the sky invites integration:What has been learned this year?What is ready to be carried forward with greater maturity, honesty, and care?Tuesday, December 23: Venus in Sagittarius square Neptune in PiscesThis is a tender, permeable alignment—beautiful, but not always clear.Venus in Sagittarius seeks truth, meaning, and heartfelt enthusiasm.Neptune in Pisces dissolves boundaries, blurs edges, and opens us to longing, devotion, and compassion.Notice where idealism slips into projection—or where longing replaces discernment.This can show up as:Romanticizing a path, a belief, or a relationshipFeeling disoriented about values or directionConfusing spiritual yearning with actual alignmentThis aspect also opens deep compassion, poetic sensitivity, and soulful listening—especially when we resist the urge to decide too quickly. Let your values be informed by both heart and grounded truth.Reflection Question:Where am I being invited to soften my certainty without abandoning my discernment?Wednesday, December 24: Venus enters Capricorn (until January 17)As Venus moves from Sagittarius into Capricorn, the tone of relating and valuing changes noticeably. Capricorn is the sign of commitment, integrity and long-term responsibilityHere, love becomes less about possibility and more about presence.Values are no longer theoretical—they want to be lived.This is not cold or restrictive energy; it is maturing energy.Venus in Capricorn asks:What do I truly stand for?What am I willing to tend over time?What relationships, projects, and devotions are worth the effort?Choose what you are willing to build—not just what inspires you.Reflection Question:What values am I ready to embody more fully as we enter the new year?Saturday, December 27: Mercury in Sagittarius trine Chiron in AriesThis is a quietly powerful aspect—especially for reflection, conversation, and integration.Mercury in Sagittarius speaks in big-picture language: truth, meaning, and perspective. Chiron in Aries holds wounds around identity, courage, and the right to exist as oneself.Their harmonious trine supports:Healing conversationsReframing old narratives about who you areSpeaking truths that restore confidence rather than inflame painThis is not about fixing wounds—it’s about finding language that honors the journey. Words can become medicine here, especially when they arise from lived experience rather than theory. Let your story carry wisdom, not self-judgment.Reflection Question:What truth am I now able to speak about myself that once felt too tender or risky?This is not a week for pushing forward. It’s a week for listening, tending, and integrating. Let faith—however you define it—be something you inhabit, not perform.Podcast poem: Daybreak by Galway KinnellSupport the showGo to Sheila's website for information for transformational resources: https://www.ontheedgesofchange.com/home-page This episode was co-created with generative AI, engaged as a soul-aligned ally in service of transformation.
