This week delivers a powerful, energetic shift as Neptune stations direct in the final degree of Pisces, Mercury rejoins Black Moon Lilith in Scorpio, and then re-enters Sagittarius. These transits form a bridge between the underworld we have just navigated and the fiery truth ahead. You are stepping out of the fog of retrogrades, yet you are still moving through Mercury’s shadow period, which means the revelations continue. The stories uncovered over the past month are not yet done evolving. This week, they crystallize into clarity.
Weekly Astrology Forecast
The week opens under the lingering influence of the Gemini Full Moon from Dec 4. Your mind is still sorting what is real, what is projection, and what must be released to move forward with intention. Thought patterns, communication habits, and old narratives may still feel heightened or overstimulated. Give yourself space to slow down and integrate. Mercury, the planet of communication and Gemini's planetary ruler, is still in the deep waters of Scorpio at the start of the week, which keeps you attuned to what is unspoken, hidden, or emotionally charged beneath the surface.
On December 10, Neptune stations direct in Pisces, ending its five-month retrograde and opening the final floodgates of this transit for the last time in our lifetime. Neptune’s final degrees in Pisces are historically significant and will continue until January 26, 2026. As the mythical god of the ocean, Neptune rules spirituality, creativity, storytelling, art, magic, illusion, delusion, and the subconscious. On the shadow side, it's associated with scams, delusion, spiritual and religious psychosis, self-sacrifice, and loss. It's the modern planetary ruler of Pisces as well, and Neptune is at home in its watery oceans.
What we are experiencing now is the last sweep and resolution of a collective spiritual and psychological detox that began in April 2011. This generational transit has coincided with the rise of political cults like MAGA, widespread religious psychosis and controlling ideology, a cultural shift toward alternative belief systems such as astrology and tarot, the second and third waves of the fentanyl and opioid crisis, and the explosion of influencer and social-media culture that has shaped unattainable beauty standards and mass illusion.
Now we are entering the final resolution of this transit and completing Neptune’s journey through Pisces for the last time in our lifetime. Neptune retrograde brought clarity, dissolution of illusion, and the uncomfortable truth of seeing the forest for the trees. When Neptune stations direct, that clarity begins to blur again and the psychic waters rise. Expect heightened intuition, rich dreams, deep emotional downloads, and increased collective sensitivity.
This is also the final grasp of individuals and institutions trying to maintain their spiritual or creative influence. During this recent Neptune retrograde, the release of the Epstein files revealed names many never expected, including Deepak Chopra, a figure long associated with spiritual purity and self-help culture. This is textbook Neptune in Pisces exposure: the unveiling of false gurus and the collapse of curated spiritual personas.
At the same time, Saturn (lessons) is completing its own final transit through Pisces and is now direct, adding a layer of sober reality and karmic accountability to everything Neptune has dissolved. Saturn demands structure where Neptune dissolves boundaries. As these two planets finish their work in Pisces, we will see harsher lessons and confrontations with illusion, especially around spirituality, wellness, celebrity, and the creation of collective fantasy. This is the final reckoning with what is real, what is deception, and what spiritual discernment truly requires.
Later the same day, Mercury forms a conjunction with Black Moon Lilith in Scorpio, a fierce, uncompromising meeting of mind and shadow. This is truth-telling at its rawest. You may speak something you’ve held inside for months, or someone else may pierce through the silence with a revelation of their own. Hidden motives, emotional leaks, ancestral memories, and taboo topics rise to the surface. This is the final purge of Scorpio season’s psychological unraveling. It clears the mind of energetic debris before the messenger planet shifts signs.
On December 11, Mercury enters Sagittarius, marking a turning point in the collective and personal narrative. After digging into the depths of the psyche, Mercury bursts into fiery expression, seeking perspective, meaning, and freedom. Communication becomes bold and unfiltered as Mercury is in detriment in Sagittarius, a challenging placement. Truth becomes a priority, but it can also trigger others. But because we are still in Mercury’s post-retrograde shadow, what emerges now is tied to the storylines from the last six weeks. This transit helps you articulate your new direction, your boundaries, and your philosophy of self. You are ready to share what you’ve learned, but do so consciously and with wisdom, not recklessness.
By the end of the week, the tone shifts dramatically. You are rising from the waters of emotional excavation into the fires of Sagittarian vision. This is a week of clarity, psychic release, and renewed perspective. Trust the messages that arrive. Trust the intuition that sharpens. Trust the truth that reveals itself. You are being ushered toward a new horizon, one that demands honesty, courage, and a willingness to see beyond the familiar edges of your story.

Oracle Card of the Week
In alignment with this week's Neptunian themes, I felt the desire to tap into The Starseed Oracle by Rebecca Campbell. This is an activating oracle that will help you to unlock your soul gifts, connect with your cosmic origins, and remember who you truly are.
This week’s energy is activating creation, expression, and cosmic remembrance. The Seven Star Sisters indicate the birth of something new that wants to be birthed into reality. Whether it is a creative project, a personal reinvention, new spiritual direction, or a shift in identity, you are being called to step into your true authentic self.
You may feel new ideas, thoughts, imagery, and expression coming through, especially as Neptune turns direct this week. Follow the threads. Nothing arriving right now is random. The tapestry of your life is weaving itself with greater clarity, and you are being asked to trust the process even if you cannot yet see the full design. Collaboration and community may also be highlighted. You are not meant to birth this alone. Allies, teachers, guides, or soul family may enter your sphere as co-creators or reflectors of your next evolution.
Your voice, your vision, your presence, and your truth matter more than you have been taught to believe. This is your sign to create boldly, express authentically, and bring a dormant dream back to life.
Affirmation: “I am a vessel for creation. I trust the threads that are weaving me into my next expression.”
