The Sun entering your sign is usually what you\u2019ve been waiting for all year, right? It means all your groovy, cosmic tendencies get free rein (and what Sadge doesn\u2019t love having free rein?), and everyone else gets to try it on with you, too. But this year, the Sun arrived with a Mercury retrograde in your sign. So you might as well just stop talking right now. And while you\u2019re at it, stop thinking, too. Mercury is about to conjunct the Great Attractor and God only knows what kinds of crazy ideas might pop into your head. Just turn off your brain until Dec. 13.<\/p>\n<p>Oh, and did you notice there\u2019s an eclipse in your sign, and some funky minor planets hanging out by the Great Attractor?<\/p>\n<p><em>Great Attractor? Don\u2019t you mean Galactic Core?<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Well, the core of our galaxy is in your sign too; it\u2019s the main thing that gives Sagittarius its super-spiritual street cred. But the Great Attractor, this big, powerful goddess-knows-what-black-hole-like-thingy that is swooshing away from us just as fast as we\u2019re being pulled toward it, hangs out in the middle of Sadge. Lately the North Node and a couple of wild-card centaurs have been keeping it company \u2013 and now Mercury is starting to pick up speed while backing into the whole garden party. We\u2019re hoping he hasn\u2019t been drinking. His driving backwards always calls for a little caution even while sober. But Pholus, one of those centaurs I mentioned, uncorked this special wine cask that belonged to Dionysus about four generations too early \u2013 and dealing with him hasn\u2019t been the same since. <\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>In a nutshell, if Mercury took a sip on his first pass by Pholus a couple weeks ago, you can be damn sure some shit is hitting the fan now that he\u2019s coming back through backwards and hammered. Life feeling chaotic? Having moral dilemmas? Accidents? Friends and lovers and enemies all popping back into your life and switching roles? Can\u2019t keep your mouth shut when you\u2019re pissed at your boss? Yup \u2013 and you\u2019re not alone. <\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s just that you\u2019re just at the center of the delightful mess! The sex\/money\/power tangle (tango?) is big in your charts right now. A grand trine between Jupiter, Mars and Venus\/Pluto signals a big promotion and a big raise may be in the works. But you may have to sleep your way to the top in order to make it happen. Still feeling guilty about your last workplace affair? Get over it. No one actually hates you for it \u2013 they just wish they had the guts to go for it. Which is kinda the same, but you can take it.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s your professional sex life, now for your personal sex life. When the Sun gets to the tail-end (ha) of Sagittarius and squares Uranus in your fifth house of love affairs and risk-taking, go for it. Be even more impulsive and selfish than usual. Just keep it legal. Centaurs are just the best! Have a three-way or two. You may experience the best orgasms of your life this month! And don\u2019t forget to make videos so we can all see them on YouTube.  <\/p>\n<p>If you happen to have a job, the possibility for fights in the office is high, so keep scissors and other sharp objects out of sight. Heck, just take everything off your desk. And this is the month your boss will just up and decide to become a pain-in-the-ass stickler for detail like no one has ever been before. So straighten up and fly right \u2013 unless you\u2019re in the sack with him. In which case, any position may do.<\/p>\n<p>The weird thing is, as stressful as all this may be for you \u2013 especially if it\u2019s bringing up weird angles on ancestral baggage \u2013 it\u2019s an incredible opportunity to get some inner shit sorted out for yourself. No, really! Even if a lot of your family\u2019s skeletons are largely unknown to you and you\u2019d rather keep them in the closet, this is a perfect time for you to release these \u2018ancestral processes\u2019 (as Melanie Reinhart has called them).<\/p>\n<p>If you <em>are<\/em> willing to dig a little \u2013 if you\u2019re curious, if you have older relatives you can talk to, if your cat is really a shaman in disguise \u2013 you may find some of the keys to any current crazy-making in unexpected places. And remember, you can be really creative with this; be open to subtle suggestions. If, say, your mom brought out old family photos over Thanksgiving, complete with judgmental remarks about a grandfather\u2019s sex life, and for the first time you can see your resemblance in that face, it might be worth meditating on any resonance between his story and attitudes around your own sexuality.<\/p>\n<p>You know \u2013 that sort of thing. For example. Not that we know anyone like that&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Oh, and whether you\u2019re a Sadge or not: The Moon enters Pisces at 9:45 am EST. But just before it does so, at about 8:50 am, don\u2019t be surprised if you get this feeling in the periphery of your consciousness that\u2019s kind of squishy and detached at the same time \u2013 like there\u2019s something just beneath the surface trying to come through, but it&#8217;s a little unclear and you\u2019re aware of it in the same way that you&#8217;re aware of something on the end of your nose but can&#8217;t really see it \u2018cuz it&#8217;s too close.
