those living in the northern hemisphere of the planet celebrate *winter solstice* when sun enters into the sign of capricorn on saturday,december 21 at 5:11pm GMT.

living by natural cycles of time means living by solar cycles and lunar cycles,hence in this regard,the solstice moment is said to hold a significant geometrical coding describing suns plan for the winterseason (in the northern hemisphere)/summerseason (in the southern hemisphere) and by examining the solstice astrology we can detect in upfront what archetypal energies are present during the coming months.

the first thing that stands out to me when looking at the winter solstice astro chart is the new appearance of a T-square in cardinal signs expected to bring about unexpected new beginnings now that mars locates in libra and uranus in aries goes direct again!because all planets move forward except for jupiter,the winterseason is destined to push us forward and because of the t-square influence we get motivated to start anew.mars at 6 libra is opposite uranus at 8 aries and both are upholding pluto at the top of the T-square,this indicates that we are dealing with the urge to see hidden motives behind any kind of agenda.BUT,the next couple of months will be revolutionary too,as we have mars in libra fighting the good fight opposite changes happening by surprise on an individual level (uranus in aries) and the tension inbetween both triggers that we are spot on flaws in our security granting systems of today.we wont hesitate no more,we will refuse our own part-taking in systems that control our lives in a rude way,we will demand they are changed for the better and so the readjustment of the current systemfails becomes priority to the teamwork of peaceful warriors empowered by modern innovations.

because of moon locating at 17 leo,sensitivity is concerned with giving love to self,yet leo is the sign of heightened creativity as well and that is to say that feeling creative is a gift of love to self.creative feelings are stressed out by saturn in scorpio,in other words,the acting out of creative feels is very much challenged by the lack of security and even though the moon-saturn square is stressful,this is how we get activated to *fix* issues having to do with creative intuition and demands to practice detachment from the material world.unknown forces being in control effortlessly support the world of inwardly expanding sensitivity because of the trine between retro jupiter and saturn.
many philosophies are on our minds with sun conjunct mercury at 25 sag and constructive communication about high ideals sextiles neptune with venus at the top of the sextile,hence,the winterseason is also a time where we use imagination in line with great ideals in order to design new systems we can believe in while keeping focus on measurements that are fair.sun also sextiles lunar north node which stands for the idealist mind relying on practices that establish connection to the invisible world of spirit that is directing the course of mankind.
lets expect the unexpected,happy solstice to all!
