December Bazi Astrology

The 3 Pillars for December 8th are:

 Yin Metal   / Yang Earth     / Yin Wood

Pig day   / Rat month / Snake year

December Bazi Astrology:

1. The flow of the elements has a lot of unstable Water with Yang Earth like a continent or mountain sitting atop. The Water channels through to feed the Wood which in turn nourishes the Fire of the Snake which returns the favor by feeding the Earth. This has flow and it also has a shifting of tides aspect.
2. Predictions from the Bazi of December show greater threats of earthquakes leading tsunamis, a general feeling of destabilization, big endings and beginnings, seismic shifts in the collective, and things held under the surface emerging which may be emotionally charged such as grief.
3. December is winter and the start of a season that calls for wintering; more rest, simpler lifestyle, mindful nourishment like stews or soups, hot tea, hot baths, fireside conversations with dear ones. More quiet introspection, reflection, meditation, and journaling.
4. The Pig is the Enemy of the Snake and this is Day that starts the month off brings the echo of the conflict and tension from November bleeding into this Bazi for December. What was brewing last month that might be erupting now? What conflicts are we now ready to have deep and meaningful discussion over?
5. The Rat is our changing of the day animal 11:00PM-1:00AM and is the FIRST Animal in the Chinese Zodiac
6. The Earth in its Yang form atop the Rat which is Yin Water like snowfall, icicles, and frost is underneath, it is a flow of chi underground, hidden from view but felt.
7. The Rat is often associated with being very social, very people oriented, and crowd gathering but this is more clandestine in this situation. It is more of hidden rendezvous than openly communal.
8. The Rat is also a gatherer, a collector, and financially savvy.
9. When we combine all of this into a Tarot Card we might begin with the Magician which is the #1 card in the Major Arcana. It bodes of a new beginning, a quick mind that is strategic, and smart…like psychic smart Knowing. The flow of chi is under the surface, behind the veil of 3D day to day living and more in tune to the vibrational essence of the 5D in which we are more sensing, sensitive, and in tune to subtle energies.
10. The Shadow of the Rat is cunning, deceitful, stingy, hoarding, and neurotic.

This is collective astrology, friend, so we would need to lay this over your own Bazi Astrology in order to get a personal forecast for you. Go over to the Astrology Page and order your reading with Lydia.

JOURNAL PROMPTS:

*What emotions have been under the surface that you are ready to sit with, journal about, and possibly dialogue with in the company of a safe friend or therapist?

*What are you beginning again or starting anew?

*How do you find stability in your daily life?

Activity:

Mapping exercise where you make a circle for each major aspect of your life and then draw lines away from those circles to add smaller circles which are all the ideas you have about your 2026 vision for those things. For example: a circle that says ME, and I may have several circles around that that are (increase daily self-care), (spend time with friends), (develop a meditation practice), (nourish with healthier foods), etc. Each of those may have added circles to them as well like (nourish with healthier foods) could have – weekly trip to farmers market – and -take a cooking class –
