Cosmic Mantras: How to handle your mental health this month

For many of us, this year has been one of the most challenging ones yet and we would be lying
if we said that this last month was going to be a breeze. Eclipse season has officially started
and as if this was not enough to keep us on our toes, one of the most awaited astrological
events of the century is upon us – the Great Conjunction of Saturn, planet of discipline, and
Jupiter, the all mighty expander, in humanitarian Aquarius on December 21. So, what does
this all mean? That there is a lot of work for us to do (isn’t there always?). 

And yet despite the hardships, the heartbreaks, and the too many losses we have all suffered this year, there
might in fact be a light at the end of the tunnel. With two new planets uniting under the
visionary sign of Aquarius, a new opportunity is arising for us to finally do things differently.
The water bearer’s mission was always to remind us that we are, indeed, stronger together
than we are apart. As for the light at the end of the tunnel, the zodiac’s beacon of hope, dear
old Sagittarius, is here to lead the festivities and keep us in check with its commitment to the
truth and unwavering faith in humanity. Shall we get started?

ARIES

You were born to lead, dearest Aries, and sitting still was never your forte. Always ten steps
ahead of the curve, you do not let anything or anyone get in the way of what you want. This
is one of the many things that make you exceptional. This month, however, it is time for you
to take a step back and trade action for reflection, if only to remind yourself that the journey
will always matter more than the destination.

TAURUS

Nothing ever stays the same, sweet Taurus. This month will feel particularly intense to you,
but Sagittarius energy will give you the courage you need to face your inner demons. Allow
yourself to explore the parts of you that scare you, the ones that keep you from fully stepping
into your power and forging true intimacy with others. Remember that there is an inner battle
in each of us, and that with every ending comes a new beginning.

GEMINI

Your fascinating mind always runs a thousand miles an hour, bright Gemini. This month,
however, Sagittarius energy will invite you to get out of your head and take a look at your
relationships. Love is not something anyone can rationalise, not even you. Allow your heart
to guide you for once and listen closely as it shows you exactly how you want to love and be
loved in return.

CANCER

There is nothing you would not do for the ones you love, gentle Cancer. Your ability to feel
everything so very deeply allows you to tune into others’ feelings like no one else can. This
month, it is time for you to recognise that no matter how much you would like to help, these
feelings are not your own to bear. For once, choose to fully show up for yourself instead of
letting other people’s emotions be a distraction from your own.

LEO

You may be a little dramatic every now and then, but you truly do have the biggest heart,
sweet Leo. You will feel right at home this month with Sagittarius fiery energy feeding your
own and reigniting your insatiable need to create. All eyes will be on you as you shine your
brightest and show the rest of the zodiac what it means to pour your heart and soul into
everything you do. If anyone can teach others how to be themselves unapologetically, you
can.

VIRGO

You are a quiet force of nature, dearest Virgo. You work tirelessly with the greatest care and
caution until everything you set your mind to accomplish turns out exactly as you envisioned
it. Despite your immense talent, not everything can be organised or planned for. Life gets a
little messy sometimes and you can’t always keep complicated feelings – and relationships –
at arm’s length. This month, it is time for you to truly check in with yourself. What do you
need to feel safe? Dare to say exactly how you feel, not how you think you should feel.




LIBRA

You are the best listener, sweet Libra, but it’s time for you to speak up. Allow this month’s
Sagittarius energy to inspire you to say nothing but the truth without holding back. You are
the fairest judge of them all and yet, you often fear away from conflicting situations. Do not
be afraid to rock the boat every now and then. Your ability to reconcile darkness and light
and to always see the two sides to every story makes your voice the one the world needs to
hear the most, now more than ever.




SCORPIO

When you love, you do not count, dearest Scorpio. Extraordinary feelings should always be
celebrated with equally extraordinary gestures in your book. Truth is, you are well aware that
few people can feel their feelings as deeply and intensely as you can, and sharing them can
understandably seem daunting. This month, it is time for you to recognise that you are
enough all on your own. No bells and whistles needed.



SAGITTARIUS

Happy birthday, bright Sagittarius! You are the life of the party all year round, but this month
is your month and we are so lucky to have you. Your unwavering optimism and commitment
to the truth has been tested more than ever this year, and yet here you are, stronger than ever.
Do not ever lose sight of what you came here to do, and when it doubt, do more of what
brings you joy. If 2020 could not take you down, trust that nothing ever will.


CAPRICORN

Brace yourself, brave Capricorn, for it is always darkest before dawn. With your Solar return
just around the corner, the following few weeks will be your last chance to let go of what no
longer serves you. Release all that once was, so that you may embrace the many opportunities
that will come with this new chapter. Remember that perfectionism is overrated and that there
is no such thing as failures, only lessons.

AQUARIUS

You value your freedom above all else, bright Aquarius. You do not care much about chosing
the right path, as long as it is your path. You are a dreamer at your core, a visionary that can
sometimes seem disconnected from reality because you already live in the future most of us
cannot yet see. No matter how extraordinary your gifts may be, no one can change the world
on their own. This month, it’s time for you to share your vision with your tribe. Go back to
your people, the ones who love you and champion you for all that you are, kinks and all.

PISCES

Tighten your seatbelt, gentle Pisces, for this month may just rock your world! You are so
dedicated to holding space for others that you often forget that you, too, deserve to be seen.
Sagittarius season is begging you to take a long, hard look at the bigger picture. Where do
you want to go? Now is not the time to settle for anything less than what you truly want. For
others to see you, hear you and value you for who you truly are, you must show them how.
