 Astrology of 2025-2026: Lecture with David Pond | Washington State Astrologers Association

This week’s astrology forecast:

December 1st- 7th

Message for the week:

The Full Moon in inquisitive Gemini on Thursday activates a bit of information overload—be like a sieve and filter all the information you are gathering with Gemini, through the lens of Sagittarian’s bigger picture view. What is relevant towards your long-term goals and what is just trivia?

Mercury, the ruling planet of Gemini, is in a Grand Trine in water all week, with Jupiter and Saturn—take a pause throughout the day to drop into your deeper feelings for inner guidance concerning long term goals. Trust your inner knowing.

The “heads up” day is Friday, with irritating aspects through the day—a good day to walk lightly around others with this overly touchy, easily bothered energy. The weekend is marvelous and favors close, personal relationships.

Monday: The Moon starts the day in spontaneous Aries squaring excessive Jupiter, making one vulnerable to taking on too much and going too fast—pace yourself to get the best of this energy. A relaxing evening is in store with the Moon entering grounded Taurus.  A square to Pluto late tonight can disrupt sleep, with unpleasant memories—see it, feel it, let it go.

Tuesday: Venus is sextile to transformative Pluto, creating an opening for relationships to move to a deeper level. The Moon is in comfort-seeking Taurus with the only aspect being a quincunx to the Sun midday—be willing to adjust your plans when situations call for it.

Wednesday: A bit of a funky start to a very favorable, smooth, and exciting day. The Moon is in Taurus opposite Mercury in the early morning creating the funkiness—just get the ball rolling; a great day is in store. The Moon moves into harmonious aspects with Jupiter and the Saturn/Neptune conjunction, as well as a joining intuitive Uranus in the late afternoon—trust spontaneous flashes of insight. The Moon enters open-minded Gemini this evening in a trine to Pluto, taking conversations to a deeper, more meaningful level.

Thursday: An exciting, if not over-stimulating Full Moon in Gemini occurs at 3:14 PM PST in an exact square to the North Node/South Node axis. Stay open to everything, but filter it all through your deeper sense of truth.

Friday: An edgy day leading to a relaxing and restorative evening is in store with the Moon in easily scattered Gemini in an irritating opposition to agitating Mars in the early morning. The frumpy energy continues with the Moon then squaring the Saturn/Neptune conjunction, casting a cloud of disappointment and disillusionment over the day—not the best day for scheduling important meetings or negotiations. Emotional peace is restored this evening with the Moon moving into comforting Cancer—time for a good dinner and some relaxing.

Saturday: An upbeat day with Mercury in an uplifting trine to optimistic Jupiter, stimulating engaging conversations—a good day for learning and taking in information, either through books or interactions with others. The Moon is in homey Cancer with no aspects, favoring home, family, and personal interests.

Sunday: A stellar day in the heavens with all favorable aspects. The Moon is in nurturing Cancer conjunct Jupiter in the morning—breakfast in bed? This pulls the Moon into the Grand Trine with Mercury and the Saturn Neptune conjunction while also being in a sextile with Uranus—a good day for pampering self and others. Mercury is also trine to discerning Saturn, excellent for making long-term plans and important decisions. The Moon moves into high-spirited Leo this evening—time for some fun!

May the stars be with you!
