She begins by warning listeners that the week's astrology is trying, with challenges from Neptune and Saturn likely causing anxiety and boundary issues. Lanyadoo advises practicing empathy and healthy boundaries as key strategies. She then dives into specific transits, starting with Mars square Neptune on December 14th, describing it as demoralizing and exhausting, using a metaphor about sitting on a wet bench. She notes the supportive Sun trine Chiron transit on the same day, which promotes self-worth. On December 16th, she explains the Sun square Saturn transit as heavy and consequential, testing character and accountability. December 18th brings Venus trine Chiron, a lovely transit for strengthening self-worth and values.
