At this Family Yule gathering near Asheville, NC the Waning Moon will be in Virgo:

Here is the Moon at her most discriminating. Wearing an efficient, tailored uniform, she's ready to take care of whatever needs work--no matter how much work it needs. This is the most detailed-oriented sign out there, the sign most concerned with fixing, fussing and tending to. This Moon sign puts us in the mood to clean, scour, sort, troubleshoot, and help. Virgo is the most helpful of all the signs, ready to take up a broom, mop, or gardening tool and offering her assistance. Now is when we're more health-conscious, work-oriented, and duty-bound, too, so this is a great period during which to pay attention to our diet, hygiene, and daily schedules.

*Blessed Be*

Aspects for Yule November 21, 2000

AM on the 21st: Moon semi-sextile Pluto-- old anxieties are reawakened. PM on the 21st: Moon square Venus-- relax with friends, extravagance. Moon square Uranus-- erratic or eccentric behavior, quick mind.

During Yule The Waning Moon will be in Scorpio:

This fixed, feminine water sign is co-ruled by Mars & Pluto, so this Moon doesn't mess around. She's all dressed up in her formal black, looking so good she knows you can't take your eyes off of her. Scorpio is the most intense sign out there, and when the moon is here, she feels everything to the absolute nth degree-- everything. Needless to say, we do, too. Passion, joy, jealousy, betrayal, love, and desire all take center stage in our lives now, as all our emotions deepen to the point of possible obsession. Be careful of a tendency to become secretive, suspicious, or to brood or "stew" over an offense that was not intended. Now is a great time to play detective, investigate a mystery, do research, "dig"--both figuratively and literally--and allow ourselves to become intimate with someone.

*Blessed Be*
