Cosmic Currents:
What’s Shifting in the Stars This Week?
15 December, 2025
This week holds both deep introspection and forward movement. A powerful New Moon in Scorpio aligns with Mercury and Venus, while the Sun and Venus both shift into Sagittarius, amplifying clarity, momentum and direction. Jupiter continues its retrograde learning cycle in Gemini, and Saturn holds steady as it slowly rebuilds structure. This is a week of closure and new beginning at the same time.
