Wednesday 18th December
The Moon rises in the constellation of Cancer, having departed from Gemini, thus transitioning from the element of Air to the element of Water. Cancer is known for its nurturing qualities, which are mediated by the Moon and brought down to Earth. This makes it a wonderful day to connect with friends and family as we approach Christmas. In the evening sky, we observe the Moon passing over the planet Mars from Earth's perspective, creating an occultation. This celestial event blends the caring forces of Cancer with the energy and action embodied by Mars.
