Planetary Transits for December 15th – January 14th
(Interpretations based on the Systemsʻ Approach to Vedic Astrology
Note: This report is available on the 15th day of the month. This coincides with the transit of the Sun, which follows the same pattern every year. “Watching the Sun” is a helpful guide for your monthly activities.
Note: The winter solstice is December 21st. This is the shortest day of the year in the Northern Hemisphere, caused by the Earth’s axis being tilted furthest from the Sun. This astronomical event marks the official start of winter and is celebrated with cultural festivals worldwide, symbolizing the return of longer daylight hours. This astronomical phenomenon is a solar event defined by Earth’s orbit and tilt.
