The New Moon in Sagittarius on Tuesday, December 12, will take over the skies as it ushers in a new era of optimism and exploration.  We will set new goals for ourselves, focus on our needs and switch-up our self-expressive styles as we prioritize authenticity.   The Yule/ Winter Solstice in the Northern Hemisphere is on December 21.  The Celtic Tree Month of Birch begins on Sunday, December 23.  She is looking forward to the Full Moon in Cancer (water sign) on Tuesday, December 26, as it will be the chilliest full moon for 2023.  New ideas about travel, spirituality and equality -- on both a personal and global level -- are likely to emerge in the new year.  

Rhonda's mixed media acrylic painting Grandmother Time will be shown in the Small Works Members Show at Woman Made Gallery from December 2-23, with an Opening Reception on Saturday, Dec. 2 in Chicago, IL.
