After an incredibly joyful Christmas, Monday brings the onset of a possible hangover or temper of the “grouchies” with the Moon conjunct Grinchy Saturn and square explosive Uranus.
A square between The Moon and Mars, retrograde, on Tuesday – kicks off the tendency to linger and dwell over past pains.
Luckily, Wednesday brings a sigh of relief with loving Venus sextile dreamy Neptune and the Moon sending out warm and loving vibes to Neptune, Venus, Mercury and Uranus.

New Years Eve is under a practical, but sensual pleasure loving Taurus Moon. Instead of looking to the future you may prefer to ring out 2022 and ring in 2023 on a more melancholy note, by focusing on old memories from the past. This may not be a bad thing and some memories can be very heartwarming. Remember, in order to move into the future – the blank slate of a New Year – it’s best to fully process and integrate all of the upsets and challenges of the past. This way you can release all baggage and not be burdened by needless emotional baggage that can undermine your attempts at future progress.
