Venus and Vesta discusses the astrological influences of the first two weeks of December. The episode begins by reflecting on the powerful effects of the Sun conjunct Mars in Scorpio and its opposition to Uranus in Taurus, which has brought deep introspection and revelations to the surface. The host also delves into the intriguing political manoeuvres happening in the UK, particularly the unexpected return of ex-prime minister David Cameron to the UK parliament seemingly out of nowhere, but showing how the Scorpio depths can operate. The episode then explores the upcoming astrological events, including Mercury's move into Capricorn, Neptune turning direct, and the new moon in Sagittarius. Venus and Vesta highlights the energetic and transformative nature of these celestial events, offering insights into their potential impact on personal and collective consciousness.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• December starts with a lot more enthusiastic, lighter energy, which may even help us make some money - Mercury moves into success orientated Capricorn ready for Mercury Retrograde which may enable us to 'cook the books' and make plans for serious wealth.
• Neptune turning direct in Pisces brings a shift in consciousness and a deeper understanding of the holographic reality and interconnectedness of all things.  Is this the dimensional shift we have been waiting for?  
• Mercury in Sagittarius has been blurting things out and bringing attention to the chaotic shifts happening in the political landscape, such as the unexpected return of David Cameron to the UK parliament. Mercury turning retrograde in Capricorn adds a twist of unexpected information and challenges to decision-making.
• Venus moving into Scorpio adds a soothing and magical touch to the shadow work and underhand manoeuvres happening, making them more palatable and appealing.
• The new moon in Sagittarius, conjunct Mars, brings a surge of enthusiasm and energy to pursue dreams and ideals, No more digging deep into Scorpio depths, this is the fresh air we need to move forward.

BEST MOMENTS

"And coming to the surface, because first of all, Mercury is in Sagittarius and Mercury, of course, just cannot but blurt things out."

"They've just like slot him in. They've got rid of Suella Braverman, who actually was just telling the truth, and then has actually called our Prime Minister out on a number of things. Good for her." 

"And there comes Sir David, newly ennobled Sir David Cameron comes into the House of Lords and then name checks a completely unelected body. This is kind of cronyism and, you know, replacing someone in a position in a very, very obvious way." 

"So there's a lot of energy here to explore and upgrade the vision of possibilities to happen, you know, that can happen in the next two years even." 

"And suddenly, whoa, things start to fall into place. And that's to say, you know, Mercury retrograding through Capricorn. Well, I will save a lot of this for the next episode."
