Welcome to the Rochelle Christian Podcast. I'm Rochelle, your host. I'm here to help you come back to your body, take charge of your emotions, and live life on your terms. This podcast is a space for raw, real conversations about what it means to trust yourself, lean into your power, and create a life that feels aligned and alive. We'll explore human design, astrology, and other tools to help you understand your unique energy. More importantly, though, we're gonna talk about what it means to actually live and embody these aspects. So each week I'm gonna share stories, lessons, guidance to help you navigate life's challenges and really own your magic. So if you're ready to step up, take control, and show up as the most authentic version of you, let's begin. Welcome back to another episode on the podcast. Today we're gonna talk about December transits, the major themes and transits that are happening in the month of December. If you want more weekly updates, you can join the Roof and Rubble podcast, follow me on social media, TikTok. I do sort of a weekly card poll, transit update, and then the Inner Mother Collective, where we do monthly moon circles and transit updates and so much more happens in there. This is gonna be, again, just sort of a broad overview of the things that are happening in December. And there was not an episode on Thursday, which was Thanksgiving in the US. So this is gonna come out at sort of an odd time on Sunday, and but it'll be out just in time for December 1st, which is Monday. So Mercury, as I'm recording this, Mercury is officially direct. When I tell you, this Mercury retrograde kicked my ass. Like it literally was probably the most challenging Mercury retrograde I feel like I've been through because I'm definitely one who always says, just live your life, you know, maybe slow down a little bit, but don't kind of live by this Mercury retrograde. But the last, um actually the about same time last year, this the last one was also incredibly challenging for me as well. But yeah, this Mercury retrograde started in Sagittarius, moved back into Scorpio, and it is starting a year, well, more than a year. So 2027, it's going to be dipping in and out of water and air signs, but 2026, it is in all the water signs. So there's going to be a Mercury retrograde in Pisces, a Mercury retrograde in Cancer, and a Mercury retrograde again in Scorpio. And this is really asking us to reflect, review, revise, revisit, really assess and spend time with our old habits and emotional patterns. And when I tell you, this came up so strongly and so painfully for me during this Scorpio season. I'm gonna get more in detail on it. Maybe in another episode, but for sure on the roof and rubble, where this is sort of my space to kind of, it's a little bit more behind the scenes. It's a little bit more raw about my personal life, not to dramatize anything, but it's just kind of like the real raw stories. And so if you want to join that, you can uh click in the show notes. But I'll probably do another episode where I just broadly talk about um the lessons I learned because I'm still integrating them a little bit. And but yeah, when I say it was so much of the patterns that come up for me, they all came up and were very much in my face. And there was somebody that was a mirror that was activating those for me, which you know, the people that we choose to bring into our life are always mirrors for us, painful or otherwise. And this was a mirror for a very specific reason. This person was a mirror literally just for Mercury retrograde, and then um, and that's it. So lesson, you know, lessons to learn, strong lessons to learn. And okay, so today, as I'm recording this on Saturday, December 20th or November 29th, Mercury is direct. We talked about that last month. So we're gonna get into this coming month's major transits. So we're gonna start out the month on the fourth with a full moon in Gemini happening at 13 degrees. That's at 5 14 p.m. And it's gonna be in gate 35. Now, I didn't actually pull the chart yet of this full moon, but this full moon in Gemini, you know, Gemini is curiosity, Gemini is fact-finding, Gemini is ruled by Mercury, it's sort of the trickster kind of energy. And Mercury at this time is again just station direct, so is moving back through these final lessons of Scorpio of this retrograde cycle. So really notice what themes, what was coming up or what is coming up during this specific time because full moons are times to they're full when there's a full moon, we can see clearly in the sky, right? The moon is bright, it's opposite the sun. And so it's a time of illumination. It's showing us the things that we're kind of ready to release and shed. And 2025 has been a year of shedding. So again, whatever themes kind of came up for you during this Mercury retrograde cycle, we might feel illumination and clarity on them now that Mercury is direct. And again, Mercury is the ruler of Gemini, which is why we want to pull Mercury's energy into this full moon. So, what are the things that are very clear that maybe you need to release, you need to clear out in order to make space? Because during new moons is when we're planting the seed, right? We can't necessarily see clearly. You think about you plant a seed in the ground and you, you know, bury it or whatever. You can't see it, but the intention is there. And over the course of the lunation, the cycle, it's gonna then, you know, come to fruition and grow and we'll be begin to be able to see. But we have to clear the space. We have to make room for that seed. So that's really kind of what's coming up during this time of like, what is that seed? What do we need to release? Rather, what came up for you? What do you need to face? What do you need to work on? Again, my thing is always nervous system regulation, like so strongly, especially with Uranus, retrograding back through Taurus. Nervous system regulation. Find the practices that work. And I know during this holiday season, we collectively tend to eat a little bit differently, drink a little bit more, find ourselves a little bit more triggered, especially with family and things like that. So really coming into your practices. And I say this as like this is a theme for me right now, right? Where it's like, I'm definitely, oh my gosh, since Thanksgiving, I'm still eating leftovers and I just feel like I've eaten nothing but carbs. And I think the important thing is again to continue to come back to our practices and to not shame ourselves. It would be so easy for me to be like, oh my God, I ate like shit. I'm like drinking more than I normally do, and just to like sit on that shame train. But I also know that tomorrow is a new every moment, not even tomorrow, every moment is a new opportunity for me to choose and go back to patterns that I know and habits rather that I know work for me. So that's what's happening now. And so that is the 4th of December. That full moon is happening on the 4th of December. And then on, let's see, on the 11th of December, I'm trying to decide how um, yeah, we're just gonna do the big, the big again, the weekly sort of like transits we will talk about in the Roof and Rebel and social media, all those things. The so 11th of December, Mercury goes back into Sagittarius. It is still in that shade retro shade phase, so it will be until the 16th is when it officially leaves that retro shade phase at six degrees of Sagittarius. So again, just like really reflecting on these themes that are coming up. Mercury theoretically doesn't really like to be in Sagittarius because it is a ruler of Gemini. I kind of like it because again, Mercury is curiosity, it's fact-finding. Sagittarius is more the big questions, the big philosophical questions. Who am I? What am I here to do? But without having those little sort of like curiosities along the way, picking up these little facts, right? Kind of, you know, I find a lot of Gemini people are a little bit play that devil's advocate, right? Where it's like they have their own opinions, but they kind of like to poke the bear a little bit, right? It's like the what if. So it's like in order to answer these big broad questions, we have to have the little facts. We have to like have had the little cure curiosities and built the sort of like foundation there to have those big, broad questions. So, you know, we might be focusing a little bit more on the, I don't want to say the details, but the little things maybe that don't matter as much, but I think that they'll build up um and empower us in those bigger questions, right? On the, so Mercury, again, as it moves back before it moves into Sagittarius, it's gonna be opposite Uranus, which is just a lot of, again, it's our mind, it's anxiety, it's the electrical impulses in the body, it's asking those big questions. And so it's could be that could feel really uncomfortable in our system because again, Uranus is the electrical impulses, Gemini is a nervous system, Mercury is a nervous system. So, really, really, really around this time, make sure that we're grinding ourselves in, doing the work, getting outside. If it's not freezing cold, and even if it is your even if it is freezing cold, can you go outside and just spend a few minutes, right? Get some sunlight. You know, obviously with winter, it tends to, it gets dark earlier. Like last night we were sitting there and it felt like it was 10 o'clock and it was like 6 15. So making sure that we're getting enough sunlight, we're kind of like doing that work, can be really helpful with our mental health. Um and then on the 15th, okay, so actually on the 10th of December, I skipped over the 10th. On the 10th of December, Neptune is stationing direct in Pisces. Now, again, this is gonna be those last final degrees in Pisces, Neptune and Pisces, and I was, I think it was the last new moon circle with Jenna Romer, and she was talking about the transits, and she said, you know, with Neptune and Saturn, especially Neptune at those final degrees in Pisces and kind of moving back over it as a station's direct, she was like, if anybody feels like they can see clearly, that's more what I'm concerned about. Like none of us should, like, we should all be confused right now, essentially. We should all have a little confusion because everything that's coming up, especially with Neptune at those final degrees, it's gonna station direct at 29 degrees, 22 minutes of Pisces. Like, this is that final, this anoreatic, like critical point in Pisces, and we're not going to see clearly. Pisces, when we have like major transits moving through Pisces, we tend to get more clarity on the other side. When we're in it, we're gonna feel confused. We might not be able to see it quite clearly. The same goes for Saturn when when Saturn is officially gonna be moving out of Pisces or when Saturn's gonna move into those final degrees. We might not know what the lesson is in those moments. We might feel a little bit confused. So again, just like anchoring in, trusting, noticing your dreams. My dreams have been wild. I had they bit actually, I've had a lot of animals in my dream. And I always, not always, but oftentimes I'm just not sure what my dreams mean. But I've been dreaming a lot of kittens, which to me is like vulnerability, but it's also new beginnings. It's it's like very like soft, little uh playful energy. And then last night I had a dream of a lion, I had a dream about a bear. Like these are really big, and the bear was like protective of me, right? So it's this protector energy. So just noticing what's happening in your dreams because there's a lot of transits right now. Jupiter and Cancer, depending, of course, where that is in your chart, but Jupiter and Cancer, um, Neptune and Pisces, like Saturn and Pisces, our dreams are really telling us something right now. So really noting them, paying attention to them, throw it through Chat GPT. Like I literally plan it, I've just the all morning. I journaled and then I finished this 2026 um astrology forecast. So if you want to get your copy, click down the show notes. It is available. It is 2026, it's a broad overview of it. We go through what each planet is doing, and then it's a planner. So it has every single daily transit, monthly transit, lunation, retrogrades, everything is in there. So you can have it um on your phone, you can look through it and help plan your 2026. So you can grab that below in the show notes. But yeah, so I finished that this morning. So I haven't had time to like throw this into Chat GPT, but I will be doing that today and just getting chat's um opinion on what it could mean, but it's just it's so fascinating to me. Uh okay, so that was Neptune stationing direct, December 10th, and then again the 11th, Mercury moves back into Sagittarius. Um, the 16th, Mercury is going to be moving out of its retro shade phase period, uh at six degrees 51 minutes of Sagittarius. On the 15th, Mars moves into Capricorn. I love this. I have Mars and Capricorn in my own chart. Mars loves to be in Capricorn. Mars does not like to be in Cancer. So Mars moving into Capricorn, it's like, you know, Capricorn holds a little bit of struggle, right? But Capricorn wants to, it values hard work. It wants to move things forward. It's always kind of, you know, like the mountain goat, it's climbing up to the top of the mountain. And so Mars is giving us the energy and the willpower, I guess, and the action and the ability to like move on these things. So whatever goals that you set, you can even look back to neck last year, whatever goals you set, or if you're setting goals for 2026, like this is going to give you the energy to move on those, to get practical, to set some things in place, to like move on that, right? So this is a really beautiful uh transit ingress, right? Mars being in Capricorn collectively, and in if you have this individually, um, it's really great as well. So that's gonna be happening on the 15th. Um, on the 19th, let me see if I missed any other little ones. Um again, of course, there's little squares in here, not little squares. Everyone is like impactful, but um, okay, so that is on the 15th. On the 19th, we have our new moon in Sagittarius. This is in gate 10, the love of the self. This is all about self-love. I love this. It's in the G Center. Um, this is happening at 28 degrees, another 28 degree new moon at this like critical, um, this like final degrees of the sign. Because we're having new moons at 28 degrees until Pisces, uh, and then Aries. I think it goes to, I think it's the new moon in Aries is at 27 degrees, but 28 degrees have been since Libra. Uh Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, it's gonna be Capricorn, it's gonna be Aquarius, it's gonna be Pisces. All of these are happening at 28 degrees. So for what it's worth, that's uh pretty intense. And so this new moon in Sagittarius um is gonna be square to Saturn and Neptune, bringing some, you know, that Saturnian energy, a little bit of confusion with a Neptune being there. And the uh Jupiter is in um cancer. And uh so anyway, so yeah, that's happening on the 19th of December, and the 21st, the sun moves in Capcorn. And again, we went over Capricorn a little bit. This is hard work, this is perseverance, this is kind of like facing the struggle a little bit, right? We're highlighting this area. This is like getting logical, being planned, this is ruled, Capricorn is ruled by Saturn. So we're, you know, this is karma, this is time, this is restriction, this is boundaries, it's all these like kind of more serious themes that um come up during this time. And then on the 24th, uh, Venus moves into Capricorn. So a lot of stuff's moving into Capricorn right now. Venus and Capricorn, as far as like values and relationships and money um and self-worth, like it's in it for the long haul. This is not like a quick, flighty, like you know, little playful energy. Venus and Capricorn is in it for the long haul. So things that you start now, be it a relationship, be it maybe some sort of like financial, um, maybe you're saving money or whatever it is, financial goal things. Like again, Venus and Capricorn is supporting us in long-term goals. So that is happening on the 24th. And I think that's like the biggest uh transits that are happening for the month of December. Um, again, you can check out the um, you can check out the my kids are yelling in the other room. You can check out the 2026 forecast planner that I have below. You can join the Roof and Rebel to get weekly transits. Um you can, um, like what else is going on? Um discount. Oh, if you as you listen to this on the 30th, yeah, the 30th. If you want to join our Reclaim Your Power, Return to Your Power workshop that is happening on Tuesday, December 2nd at 6 p.m. Central Standard Time. This is a free workshop that I'm partnering with Patty Tobacci and who is a hypnotist, uh, or hypnotherapist rather. We are going to be talking about the energy of 2025, the energy of 2026, and we're gonna be doing some journaling. And Patty is gonna be guiding us through a uh group uh hypnosis session to really release and unhook from the themes of 2025 or the things that we need to leave behind in 2025. Now, 2025 was the year of shedding. Everybody is talking about it, and if you didn't feel it, like uh great, but I know so many people who have just been going through it. There has been so much that we've been asked to face, so much that we're moving through, so much that has been just painful and hard and challenging and things falling away, and it's this collective, like like we're needing to release to move into 2026. So if you want to join that, I will leave the link down below. I think there's 10 of you in there now. Um, you will be getting the replay. So if you can't join live, it's fine, you'll get the replay.
