To my Dear Friends and Community,
The past month I was very busy traveling to Europe and Sedona, Arizona where I spoke at a Vedic astrology conference. My experiences taught me a lot concerning the global perspective of the events that plague the world. Europe is preparing for a serious lock down. Germany’s hospitals were overrun with new coronavirus cases and Austria just went into another lock down. Now we have a new variant coming out of Africa. Usually, the wave of the virus comes out of Europe then to the United States. Many are asking me, when will it stop? When will we be free from this virus?
I pointed out many times that we are going to have to live with the virus. I believe many around the world agree that they do not want any more lock downs. Most of all people do not want to be told what to do, especially from governments that have no idea how to solve this dilemma, causing a lack of trust. What is sad though, is how people are treating each other! At a time when we need togetherness and unity, people seem to be making everything a political stance causing a major divide. The anger I see on both sides is mounting towards an explosion that will finally clear the air. Everyone seems to be trying to blame everyone else for the effects this virus has caused. There is a breakdown of our society causing suffering worldwide.
In no way can experimentation with a deadly virus benefit the world. And this is what happened! The only reason for this is for biological warfare. Now that Pandora’s box has been unleashed on the world, we must look for healing and come together. We cannot blame each other for their choices on whether they choose to get vaccinated or not. Nor blame governments for lock downs or not. Everyone must make a choice and it is not for us to judge others because this is what is making it last and become worse. It is the anger and hatefulness that keeps the virus going.
Since most of the choices that are available have not worked, we must look for something else to help heal our world crises. I believe since the virus will not ever completely go away, we must look for medicines to heal it, just as today we have medicines that help with the AIDS virus. But another very important variable is that we all have become more aware of taking care of our health with vitamins and minerals. Always remember love is the most healing remedy of all. Have consideration and be kind to others because this is what will be returned to yourself.
Considering that this is like Pandora’s box, I want to analyze the Greek myth as to the gift given to Pandora. The gods gave her beauty, talent, curiosity and she was given a magnificent box but was told to never open it. Of course, she couldn’t resist. She peeked inside and to her horror, out flew insects that stung and bit her, then flew out the window, infiltrating the world with disease, death, greed, old age; all the evils in the world that cause suffering. She immediately shut the box, but a voice from within the box pleaded for her to reopen it, for it could heal all the suffering of the world. She opened it again and out of the box came the gift of HOPE.
Hope has special powers, according to the Bible. The word hope appears 180 times in the Bible, and is throughout scriptures of all religions. Saint Jude urges followers to be hopeful in trying times. Aristotle referred to hope as a “waking dream”. These are just a few references in history. Hope is the most powerful human emotion. The insignia for breast cancer survivors is HOPE. What can we do to get into the mindset of hope when in a place of hopelessness? The symbolism within mythology points out that it is the mind that causes us to fall into negative deceptive thoughts that create our world of illusion. Our beliefs create our world.
When we start with hope and develop faith, we will see the Divine workings in our lives daily. This is the hope we have been looking for that heals all suffering, as in Pandora’s box. Don’t let your mind trick you into believing the illusionary suffering of this world. And when you fall back into this type of mindset, think of the good you hope for, and ask that it be revealed to you. If you have the faith in the Divine spirit, the messages WILL be revealed to you. You will see it when you believe it.
When we are feeling depressed or sad, the best and most positive thing we can do is to look to the future. This will give us hope. When you are in a negative frame of mind, the only thing that can give you hope is to think of when times will get better. When will things change? Of course, things only change when we make different choices, but we can still make plans now for a better future. This is what needs to be done in times of depressing events.
The powerful message here is how important it is for us to make positive plans for the future when we feel things aren’t going well. So, take out a journal and write down your plans for your prosperous future and what you intend to achieve. The more detailed, the better. Write out a plan describing ways you will achieve your goals. This will have even more power if you make a collage with photos or images from magazines depicting the way you intend your life to be. This is a healing way to help achieve your goals and get through times of trials and tribulations. When things get rough, make plans for the future, because the prospect of the future is what gives us hope.
Furthermore, as an astrologer when people need help through difficult times I can always look toward times in their life when there is light at the end of the tunnel. If you know when the bad times are going to end it gives you the strength to endure. I give hope for the future with my predictions for individuals and the world. The times it will begin to get better will be when Rahu and Ketu enter into Aries and Libra in March of 2022. I will be giving my detailed predictions December 18, 2022 @ 12 pm CST in an uncensored class on Zoom. Join our class on Zoom https://www.galacticcenter.org/workshops/p/2022-predictions-workshop . Space is filling up fast so make sure to secure your spot before we close registration.
On a much lighter note, the Sedona conference was extraordinary as many of my UVA students came together as a community bonding though the joy of laughter and getting to know and understand each other. It was so empowering that I promised my students we will have another conference in Dallas in 2022. I want to thank Madelyn, Margarete, Allison, Adrianne, Terye, Pam and Nancy. If you want to learn Vedic astrology you will benefit in so many ways becoming part of our community of astrologers. We are beginning a new start date for Semester 1 with the first live webinar on January 10. Become a part of our UVA community! Sign up on the University of Vedic Astrology website: https://universityofvedicastrology.com/collections/the-university-of-vedic-astrology
If you have any reservations listen to the videos of the students talking about UVA and you will understand why this is the perfect place to join and learn Vedic astrology.
Astrologically speaking the month of December is going to be the most intense month for the year 2021. We are still in eclipse season, and we have a solar eclipse on December 4, at 18 degrees of Scorpio. This is very close to the fixed star, Antares, and needless to say, this month will start out with a big bang. It is also in the nakshatra called Jyeshta which deals with battles and wars. Right after the solar eclipse, Mars will enter the sign of Scorpio and will conjoin Ketu on December 15, at 7 degrees. This will trigger another violent event. However, the good news is that it will be in the nakshatra Anuradha, which is a much softer and kinder nakshatra that deals with friendship and camaraderie. However, when we get to New Year’s Eve – December 31, 2021, Mars will cross over the December 4 solar eclipse degree at 18 degrees of Scorpio. This will most definitely trigger an explosive event that is going to change the course of our future.
The zodiac sign Scorpio deals with our darkest and deepest psychological makeup. When we have planets that are either natally placed or transiting in the sky, it is sending us a message that we need to address our fears so we can transform spiritually. Remember, Scorpio is naturally the 8th zodiac sign which is also a moksha sign. Therefore, because the solar eclipse is happening in the sign of Scorpio, many fears and psychological issues will come to a surface and explode. We are also going to have the final squaring of Saturn and Uranus on December 24, 2021. This is going to bring all the events that have been surfacing earlier this year up to another explosion. Our governments and world affairs will never be the same after this final square.
We also have Venus slowing down this month and it will turn retrograde at 2 degrees of Capricorn on December 30, 2021. This is another significant transit for the month of December as Venus is the planet that goes retrograde the least. Venus retrograde is the perfect time for reflecting and reanalyzing our relationships. Because Venus will retrograde in Capricorn, there will also be a big focus on restructuring our government and the relationship they portray to the public. Venus will be tightly conjunct Pluto during this time which can deal with control issues around the government since it is in the sign of Capricorn. When Venus retrogrades back into Sagittarius in January 2022, there is going to be a sense of righteousness and extreme fundamentalistic beliefs when it comes to relationships. Although there may be good intentions to bring back peace and harmony, I am afraid that with Venus being in an enemy sign, it will delay the process. Once Jupiter and Neptune conjoin by April 2022, there will be an awakening that will heal the masses.
I do want to remind everyone that although we are in a warlike situation for the final month of 2021, this is still the holiday season. And I hope you all take this opportunity to make the most out of the joyous holidays that you celebrate. I want to stress that everything that has been transpiring and that is about to transpire is happening for a Divine reason. There are no accidents or coincidences. A lot of these events have been pre-planned by the universe, and it is up to our free-will to learn these lessons and grow in a positive manner. I want to wish everyone a very happy holiday! May the best thing in your life manifest for its highest good. Always remember when times are difficult have hope and make plans for your future, when you will manifest your highest goals bringing a future full of joy and happiness.

• Sun in Sagittarius from December 16 – January 14
December 1: Uranus quincunx Mercury 17 degrees Aries / Scorpio.
o This planetary alignment is an opportunity to push your ideas beyond your limits and bring them to an execution. However, because Uranus and Mercury are inconjunct, you need to be careful in how you bring out these ideas. There might be some instability in executing these thoughts if you do not reflect properly. This is especially given the fact that Mercury is in the sign of Scorpio which represents deep emotions, intellect, and getting to the core and bottom of things. Make sure you control your emotions and the way you utilize your intellect in order to prevent any explosive and sudden outbursts.
December 3: Uranus quincunx Sun 17 degrees Aries / Scorpio.
o This will create inner tension within ourselves as we are trying to express our psychological and emotional issues. Remember Scorpio deals with our most intense and passionate emotions and psychological baggage. Try to incorporate some changes that will stimulate your life and mind in a positive direction. You have the opportunity to constructively use your creativity to channel your innermost thoughts.
December 4: Solar Eclipse (New Moon) at 18 degrees Scorpio. It will be conjunct Ketu at 7 degrees and Mercury at 21 degrees.
o This is going to unravel our deepest and most psychological issues that have been buried underneath for a very long time. The intensity of emotions will be at an all-time high. Because of this, many violent events can result globally throughout the month of December. This solar eclipse is occurring in the nakshatra called Jyeshta. The deity of Jyeshta is ruled by Lord Indra. He is the King of Gods and was also considered the Hero of all Gods. However, Lord Indra was deeply attached to his throne and the power he had – such to a point where he felt extremely insecure. Therefore, our world leaders need to be extremely careful during this eclipse season. There will be a feeling of insecurity and because of this people can take actions that will not only cause others harm but will cause themselves harm as well. It is best to lead with humility and grace during this time.
December 5 – 18: Kala Sarpa Yoga via transit.
o Expect extreme highs and extreme lows throughout the transit when it comes to the economy and other world events. This is happening in the Taurus / Scorpio axis which deals with the economy, money, as well as psychological and emotional issues.
December 7: Mercury squares Neptune 26 degrees Scorpio / Aquarius.
o Communication with others will be confusing with a lack of clarity. During this time be cautious of what information you are communicating and with whom you are communicating. This is not the time to disclose any personal secrets or else they can manifest and be revealed when least expected. This is especially significant because Mercury is in the sign of Scorpio, and Scorpio deals with many intense secrets and emotions. Also, this is not the time to sign any major contracts or agreements. It is advisable that you get a second opinion and make sure you thoroughly read the terms and conditions before signing anything major.
December 8: Mars squares Jupiter 02 degrees Scorpio / Aquarius.
o This is an excellent transit for taking action. When two planets are square from each other, they are 75% in full aspect. This is great for making changes in regard to your career and your home. Jupiter will give the proper guidance and optimism needed in order to help Mars’ action- taking characteristic.
December 8 – December 12: Mercury Ghandanta from Scorpio to Sagittarius.
o Be careful with your communications during this transit. Remember that Ghandanta means drowning either literally or figuratively as this always occurs at the last degrees of a water sign and the early degrees of a fire sign. It is very possible that things can go haywire because Mercury is leaving the intense sign of Scorpio and entering the fiery sign of Sagittarius. Do not let your emotions get in the way of your logical thinking. Wait until this Ghandanta transit wears off before you make any decisions related to business or communications.
December 11: Venus conjunct Pluto 01-degree Capricorn.
o This is a very heavy transit and a feel for the need to be in control when it comes to relationships. Remember not to let the desire of control and power dominate your sense of self in your relationships. This is also not the best time to initiate anything in relationships as there can be a lot of control and betrayal issues if everything is not properly discussed.
December 12: Sun squares Neptune 26 degrees Scorpio / Aquarius.
o This is a transit where our world leaders need to be careful. Neptune represents illusions and things that we cannot clearly see, and Sun represents our leaders. It is very possible that our world leaders are not seeing the issues that need to be addressed in a clear manner. This can make them susceptible to making decisions that will not necessarily benefit everyone for their highest good. This is a time where our world leaders should double check everything and really think things through.
·
December 13 – December 18: Sun Ghandanta from Scorpio to Sagittarius.
o This is an intense transit that occurs three times a year. In the month of April, the Sun is ghandanta between Pisces and Aries. In the month of August, the Sun is ghandanta between Cancer and Leo. In the month of December, the Sun is ghandanta between Scorpio and Sagittarius. The Sun represents our soul, ego, and self-expression. Whenever, the Sun becomes ghandanta, these representations become a bit out-of-control, and it is up to us to stabilize this energy. Avoid being egotistical while the Sun is Ghandanta and do remain simple and humble. The good news is that this is a very short-lived transit.
· December 14: Rahu quincunx Mercury 07 degrees Taurus / Sagittarius.
o Taurus represents all the materialistic things in life such as the economy, wealth, finances, and etc. Sagittarius rules the righteous and fundamentalist beliefs. Rahu represents great gains and obsessions while Mercury rules our logic and communications. When these two planets are in a 6/8 relationship, expect to see some major differences between people when they communicate about the economic status of the world. Many people, including leaders, are in disagreement regarding how to handle the economy and finances of the government and individual lives.
December 15: Mars conjunct Ketu 07 degrees Scorpio.
o This is a very violent conjunction as it can represent attacks and terror. It is best to lay low during this transit as a lot of anger is present. Do not engage in any arguments or fights that can explode into something worse. Physical exercise to release any steam is the best way to handle this transit. Also, take care of yourself mentally as well. Meditation and yoga are also advisable to pass this transit calmly.
December 18: Full Moon at 03 degrees Sagittarius / Gemini.
o The full moon is occurring in the sign of Gemini which is all about communication and the media. There will be a huge awareness as to what has been going on with media. People can use this to their advantage once they discover the truth to change for the highest good. The truth will set everyone free.
December 20: Uranus trines Mercury 17 degrees Aries / Sagittarius.
o This will open people’s mind to exciting new possibilities. There can be some exciting news coming your way that can change the way you think. Because Mercury is in the sign of Sagittarius, just be careful that you do not become too righteous or fundamentalist about the way you think. This will have a very stimulating and electrifying effect on the way you communicate. Take caution that you are using this energy appropriately, as Uranus can sometimes be over the top and cause excessive energy.
December 22: Rahu quincunx Sun 07 degrees Taurus / Sagittarius.
o This is not a good aspect to have as this can represent some instability in our current global leadership. Leaders need to step up and provide direction. They must be careful not to let their beliefs become so out of control that they alienate their followers. The Sun in Sagittarius is a great transit for self-expression. However, because Rahu is inconjunct the Sun, the self-expression may not come out in the desired way. It is important that we, as individuals, step up and reclaim our power to control our own destiny. This will ultimately lead to a better world.
December 24: Uranus squares Saturn 17 degrees Aries / Capricorn.
o This is the final time Uranus in Aries will square Saturn in Capricorn. All of the events that have been bubbling up since the beginning of January will finally come to a boiling point. Everything that needs to change will ultimately end up changing around this time. This is a huge breakdown for all the governments across the world. The world will never be the same after this final Uranus in Aries squaring Saturn in Capricorn.
December 25: Pluto conjunct retrograde Venus at 01-degree of Capricorn.
o This is a very heavy transit and a feel for the need to be in control when it comes to relationships. Remember not to let the desire of control and power dominate your sense of self in your relationships. This is also not the best time to initiate anything in relationships as there can be a lot of control and betrayal issues if everything is not properly discussed. Since Venus is retrograde this time, it is a good idea to reevaluate your relationships and make sure you both are getting the most out of it. Communication and transparency are the keys to making the most out of this transit as there can be a sudden betrayal issue if everything is not laid out on the table.
December 28: Uranus quincunx Mars 17 degrees Aries / Scorpio.
o There is a great desire to breakthrough for something that you want that is not necessarily the societal norm. This can be a frustrating transit if you do not properly express what you need in order to accomplish your goals. Slowing down and making a checklist and execution plan as to what you want to accomplish is the best way to make use of this transit. Do not make decisions and communicate in anger out of impulse. Slow down!
December 30: Pluto conjunct Mercury 02 degrees of Capricorn.
o People are thinking about how to restructure the government in a very profound way. Pluto represents control, power, and transformation while Mercury represents our intellect and thinking process. Capricorn represents the government and other materialistic pursuits. There is some deep-seated thinking that will be going around in figuring out how to transform our economy.
Considering that this is like Pandora’s box, I want to analyze the Greek myth as to the gift given to Pandora. The gods gave her beauty, talent, curiosity and she was given a magnificent box but was told to never open it. Of course, she couldn’t resist. She peeked inside and to her horror, out flew insects that stung and bit her, then flew out the window, infiltrating the world with disease, death, greed, old age; all the evils in the world that cause suffering.

It is very possible that things can go haywire because Mercury is leaving the intense sign of Scorpio and entering the fiery sign of Sagittarius. Do not let your emotions get in the way of your logical thinking. Wait until this Ghandanta transit wears off before you make any decisions related to business or communications.
December 11: Venus conjunct Pluto 01-degree Capricorn.
o This is a very heavy transit and a feel for the need to be in control when it comes to relationships. Remember not to let the desire of control and power dominate your sense of self in your relationships. This is also not the best time to initiate anything in relationships as there can be a lot of control and betrayal issues if everything is not properly discussed.
December 12: Sun squares Neptune 26 degrees Scorpio / Aquarius.
o This is a transit where our world leaders need to be careful. Neptune represents illusions and things that we cannot clearly see, and Sun represents our leaders. It is very possible that our world leaders are not seeing the issues that need to be addressed in a clear manner. This can make them susceptible to making decisions that will not necessarily benefit everyone for their highest good. This is a time where our world leaders should double check everything and really think things through.

December 13 – December 18: Sun Ghandanta from Scorpio to Sagittarius.
o This is an intense transit that occurs three times a year. In the month of April, the Sun is ghandanta between Pisces and Aries. In the month of August, the Sun is ghandanta between Cancer and Leo. In the month of December, the Sun is ghandanta between Scorpio and Sagittarius. The Sun represents our soul, ego, and self-expression. Whenever, the Sun becomes ghandanta, these representations become a bit out-of-control, and it is up to us to stabilize this energy. Avoid being egotistical while the Sun is Ghandanta and do remain simple and humble. The good news is that this is a very short-lived transit.
· December 14: Rahu quincunx Mercury 07 degrees Taurus / Sagittarius.
o Taurus represents all the materialistic things in life such as the economy, wealth, finances, and etc. Sagittarius rules the righteous and fundamentalist beliefs. Rahu represents great gains and obsessions while Mercury rules our logic and communications. When these two planets are in a 6/8 relationship, expect to see some major differences between people when they communicate about the economic status of the world. Many people, including leaders, are in disagreement regarding how to handle the economy and finances of the government and individual lives.
December 15: Mars conjunct Ketu 07 degrees Scorpio.
o This is a very violent conjunction as it can represent attacks and terror. It is best to lay low during this transit as a lot of anger is present. Do not engage in any arguments or fights that can explode into something worse. Physical exercise to release any steam is the best way to handle this transit. Also, take care of yourself mentally as well. Meditation and yoga are also advisable to pass this transit calmly.
December 18: Full Moon at 03 degrees Sagittarius / Gemini.
o The full moon is occurring in the sign of Gemini which is all about communication and the media. There will be a huge awareness as to what has been going on with media. People can use this to their advantage once they discover the truth to change for the highest good. The truth will set everyone free.
December 20: Uranus trines Mercury 17 degrees Aries / Sagittarius.
o This will open people’s mind to exciting new possibilities. There can be some exciting news coming your way that can change the way you think. Because Mercury is in the sign of Sagittarius, just be careful that you do not become too righteous or fundamentalist about the way you think. This will have a very stimulating and electrifying effect on the way you communicate. Take caution that you are using this energy appropriately, as Uranus can sometimes be over the top and cause excessive energy.
December 22: Rahu quincunx Sun 07 degrees Taurus / Sagittarius.
o This is not a good aspect to have as this can represent some instability in our current global leadership. Leaders need to step up and provide direction. They must be careful not to let their beliefs become so out of control that they alienate their followers. The Sun in Sagittarius is a great transit for self-expression. However, because Rahu is inconjunct the Sun, the self-expression may not come out in the desired way. It is important that we, as individuals, step up and reclaim our power to control our own destiny. This will ultimately lead to a better world.
December 24: Uranus squares Saturn 17 degrees Aries / Capricorn.
o This is the final time Uranus in Aries will square Saturn in Capricorn. All of the events that have been bubbling up since the beginning of January will finally come to a boiling point. Everything that needs to change will ultimately end up changing around this time. This is a huge breakdown for all the governments across the world. The world will never be the same after this final Uranus in Aries squaring Saturn in Capricorn.
December 25: Pluto conjunct retrograde Venus at 01-degree of Capricorn.
o This is a very heavy transit and a feel for the need to be in control when it comes to relationships. Remember not to let the desire of control and power dominate your sense of self in your relationships. This is also not the best time to initiate anything in relationships as there can be a lot of control and betrayal issues if everything is not properly discussed. Since Venus is retrograde this time, it is a good idea to reevaluate your relationships and make sure you both are getting the most out of it. Communication and transparency are the keys to making the most out of this transit as there can be a sudden betrayal issue if everything is not laid out on the table.
December 28: Uranus quincunx Mars 17 degrees Aries / Scorpio.
o There is a great desire to breakthrough for something that you want that is not necessarily the societal norm. This can be a frustrating transit if you do not properly express what you need in order to accomplish your goals. Slowing down and making a checklist and execution plan as to what you want to accomplish is the best way to make use of this transit. Do not make decisions and communicate in anger out of impulse. Slow down!
December 30: Pluto conjunct Mercury 02 degrees of Capricorn.
o People are thinking about how to restructure the government in a very profound way. Pluto represents control, power, and transformation while Mercury represents our intellect and thinking process. Capricorn represents the government and other materialistic pursuits. There is some deep-seated thinking that will be going around in figuring out how to transform our economy.
