This month
T he December New Moon is in Sagittarius on 7 December at 2.20am. So make your New Moon wishes as soon as you wake up! The New Moon in Sagittarius is a great time to get some perspective on what you have learned this year. Write a gratitude list, including all the things for which you’re most grateful. Think about your biggest issues from the year and ask the Universe: What was I meant to learn
in 2018? Then close or ‘blur’ your eyes and use your index finger to choose card 1, 2 or 3.
Card 1: Unleash your adventurous side. Take risks and be daring!
The message for 2018 for you was about having the courage to strike out and chase your goals. In this politically correct, riskaverse world, it’s so easy to just play life safely. After all, better safe than sorry, right? Or not! In fact, your choice of this card suggests that as the year ends, it’s not too late for you to make a bold life change which will alter the course of your destiny in 2019. And if you have already made that bold choice, this card comes as a comforting affirmation that you did the right thing!
Card 2: This situation involves your past life memories.
Choosing this card suggests that whatever you’ve been through this year was connected to a lesson you needed to learn from a previous life. Think about your biggest struggle in 2018. If you’ve felt somehow paralysed to do anything about it, it’s because you have fear left over from a previous incarnation. So ask the goddess Isis to help you release whatever ancient fears are holding you back.
Card 3: Love yourself, others and every situation, no matter what the outwards appearance may be.
Whatever happened this year, try and surround everyone in your life with love, even the people who’ve hurt you. Accept that they were doing the best they could with the virtues that they have to play with. In other words, they might not come up to your own standards somehow, but you mustn’t judge them for that if you are to move into 2019 with positive energy.
