Here is the Ask the Astrologers Weekly Astro Forecast for the week of Dec 18, 2016 – Dec 24, 2016:

Here is the Ask the Astrologers Weekly Astro Forecast for the week of Dec 11, 2016 – Dec 17, 2016:
We start this week with a 1st quarter (Gibbous) Moon in Taurus on Sunday. The Moon is exalted in Taurus and fairy well aspected: it sextiles Neptune and Chiron and trines Mercury and Pluto before the day is through.
Venus enters Aquarius on Dec 7, 2016 at 14:51 UT (9:51 am EST). Aquarius is the natural ruler of astrology’s 11 house — the area associated with friendships, group involvements and humanity in general.
If you were born with Venus in Aquarius, you probably consider yourself a bit of a rebel when it comes to love. You enjoy your independence and like to maintain a large circle of friends from all walks of life. You’re drawn to intelligent, independent and open-minded partners who test the boundaries of conventional mores.
You may be a bit eccentric, especially regarding matters of the heart. You see yourself as impervious to social expectations and may like to shock others with your relationship choices.
Aquarius is co-ruled by Saturn (traditional ruler) and Uranus (modern ruler). As such, there are some Venus in Aquarius individuals who are more “Saturnine” — conservative and traditional. A lot depends on the aspects Venus makes and the relative strengths of both Saturn and Uranus in the natal chart.
For the most part though, Venus in Aquarius people are more Uranian in nature. They tend to live in their heads rather than in their bodies (or their hearts) and can seem emotionally disconnected.
Happy Birthday Sagittarius! Here are highlights for the month ahead.

We start this week on Sunday with a Moon in Aquarius which semi-sextiles Mercury in the early morning hours and then later in the day squares Neptune. The Aquarius Moon is about being innovative and thinking outside the box. You may encounter some very opinionated people during this time, or you may find yourself getting a little more rigid about your own progressive ideas.

This week starts with all of the personal planets visible in the night sky and a beautiful crescent (Balsamic) Moon visible in the early morning hours. Sunday’s Moon in Scorpio is debilitated, but trine to Neptune — which is at home in its own sign. The Moon / Neptune trine reinforces the effects of the more reflective and visionary Balsamic Moon. It’s a time for contemplation and introspection, especially in the early morning hours.

We start this week on Sunday with Neptune turning direct (after five long months in retrograde motion). Neptune is at home in Pisces (the sign it rules), and this forward motion inspires us to realign ourselves with our higher ideals.

This week may be a game changer for many of us. With the Full (Super) Moon shining a light on our value systems and a slew of uncomfortable aspects involving the personal planets, it may be time to start re-evaluating our priorities and aligning ourselves with the changes we see (and want to see) in the outer world.
Venus enters Capricorn on Saturday, November 12th, 2016. If you were born with this Venus, you probably understand the value of hard work, dedication, perseverance and discipline.
You’re responsible and reliable — with money, in your career, in your relationships with loved ones, and especially when it comes to matters of the heart.
There’s usually a soulful quality about Venus in Capricorn people and a classic, timeless beauty: think Greta Scacchi, Scarlett Johansson or Faye Dunaway; or an ageless, sophisticated air, such as with Rock Hudson, Richard Burton and Paul Newman.
Venus in Capricorn people tend to be wise beyond their years and yet they’re also known to be late bloomers. Why? Because they know that good things come to those who wait, aw well as to those who take their time nurturing and developing their characters, rather than racing to the finish line.

This week starts with a trine between Mercury and Chiron on Sunday. This is a harmonious aspect that can offset some of the more stressful transits we are experiencing throughout the remainder of the week. It brings elements like compassion, humility and tolerance to the mix, which makes social interactions so much more pleasant.
