Month: December 2021

The Winter Solstice is known as the shortest day of the year (also the longest night of the year) and in latin the word ‘Solstice’ literally means “sun” (sol) “to stand still” (sistere)

A solstice is an event that occurs when the Sun appears to reach its most northerly or southerly excursion relative to the celestial equator on the celestial sphere.

The Winter Solstice also represents a return to days with more light.
 
You have some amazing ideas and may truly care about others and want to make a difference. Stay positive, try to see things as others do and there is the potential for a breakthrough.

Working with others could be very productive for you today, but you may have to get past your impatience, as this may lead to you placing confidence in the wrong people.

There may be a great deal of emotion that you find hard to express, but your sensitivity is still your greatest strength. So, lose your woes and stay inspired.

You are great at starting things and you may generate a great deal through your thoughts and emotions. You want to be the best, but you can be very up and down, as you may have the ideas but you may doubt yourself. You may also be very impatient and easily influenced as a result. If so, try not to put energy into frustration and don’t allow yourself to be so easily influenced by those who may offer quick and easy solutions. Trust life will move you where you are needed and allow yourself to go with the flow. Be grateful for your drive, as this can help you push through the ups and downs, remaining true to yourself and finding great treasure within.

You may want to take a break from looking after everyone else as you may feel beset by obstacles and there may be a massive struggle to be independent and self-confident. This may bring up lots of emotion that you find difficult to express, so you may decide to focus your relentless determination on turning things around. If so, try to avoid placing your heavy concerns on others, remember to laugh and have fun along the way. It’s not all down to you, a great deal can be achieved through teamwork, so focus on this and let others help by showing you new ways of doing things.

Your thoughts and plans may be detailed and far-reaching and you may be in it for the long haul. You may be very persistence and when things are not working out well, this can cause problems. You can make great demands on others as well as yourself, so you need to recognise when others are unable or unwilling to change and tailor your expectations accordingly. You may be holding on too tightly to a structure that has gone and may at times have to let go and trust, allowing regeneration to happen. At times like these it is important to see things as others do, try also to stay focussed rather than become scattered. Know also that you don’t have to be in charge for everything to come right. Rather than get caught up with feeling lots of emotion that you may find difficult to express, keep moving forward but give yourself and others time and space to let things unfold and resolve themselves naturally.

You like to focus on the here and now, on what is substantive and solid. You like to get to the bottom of things and may be able to see with crystal clear vision exactly what’s standing in the way of progress. You may feel it’s down to you to change things for the better, as others may appear not see what is obvious to you and this may cause you great frustration. If so, try to be more patient, engage with the bigger picture, remember everything evolves in cycles and that change is guaranteed. Try to trust the process, lighten up and let fun and laughter move your world too.

You have an amazing imagination that may at times feel stifled by reality. It is important that you stay positive and grounded, reaching for the stars with your feet firmly on the ground. Be decisive and try not to make things too complicated. Find the courage to be yourself and do things in your own way, even though this may bring up lots of emotion. Listen to your inner voice as well as to the voices of those around you, keep your communication clear and simple. Know that when you focus your energies you can achieve great things, so follow your passion and try not to get side-tracked so easily.

You think big and recognise few limitations, you may be determined to make the world a better place. Others may not be receptive to your different way of thinking and despite this it may be important to see your great sensitivity as the strength it is. Trust your inner voice and allow this to help you initiate new thinking within yourself and to bring in new ideas, while you keep yourself on course. You may have to accept limitations and make the best of where you are but stay connected with the bigger picture. You may have to learn detachment – to let go with love of all that is unproductive. If so, try to keep your connection with others open and optimistic. Don’t get caught up in power games, focus instead on thinking in new ways and inspiring others to do so. Keep pushing forward with new thinking and creativity – lead the way with the word …

You may be complex and profound, but there can be occasions when you feel forced into action and as a result you can be inspired and situations can be transformed. This may bring up lots of emotion, as you like the freedom to do things in your own way and you don’t like to be forced into anything. On this occasion it may be important that you carefully consider what you say and do, while making your point quietly. You don’t have to fight for everything.

It’s great that you can be painstaking in your work but try to ensure your planning to get every detail right, doesn’t stop you moving forward. There is a point at which polishing becomes wearing away, so try to ensure you act decisively and creatively, ideally with great emotional control. Taking time to stand back and connect with the bigger picture, can help you to keep things simple and can encourage you to look at things in new ways and so find new solutions. Allow yourself also to go with the flow and you may discover great intuition and synchronicity can change  

You may feel very responsible for the happiness of others and may have a relentless determination to bring in new ways of doing things. Your attitude may feel like ‘who dares wins’ but there is a danger that your impatience and haste could mean you place your confidence with the wrong people. To get past your fear of failure and of not being good enough, try working with others more – this may help you to be more realistic and may bring in new ideas and creativity, encouraging you to be more patient and positive. Try also to be grateful to the obstacles, they keep you grounded, focussed and connected to others, they also mean you are moving forward.
