You
are getting prepared for one more climb up the roller coaster Aries, and
the time is ripe for you to make a new and very different start. This could
prove to be a month of trials and also of triumphs for you as you work through
issues from your past. These might take the form of a critical partner or
greater pressure in career and outer expression but it is really all about
your own journey and how far you can allow yourself to bend. Compassion is
your keyword. It helps when you able to relax and trust in the power of the
cosmos to guide you. Unlike the little mind, the larger and all-knowing universal
Mind will never let you down.
As the month begins, you are full to the brim with enlightened self-expression that is both sensitive to nuance and at times rather abruptly visionary. You are definitely coming to the bottom-line conclusion that Spirit must be a fundamental part of the equation before you'll even begin to commit yourself, and now more than ever. This is a time to grow yourself downward as well as up, and you know this in your heart as well as in your head. It is surprising how easy you can make it for yourself when you yield to the bounty and let your life flow in a direction that is congruent with your highest purpose for yourself.
The Full Moon of the first Monday of the month sets the stage for further revelation. You are centered in self and your own security needs while from this base still managing to reach out to others around you in a creative way. It is truly the gold of inner meaning that motivates you now, rather than its yellow substitute that pales in comparison. There is transformation in the air for you these days, and your concrete presence in the world is changing, whether considered from the standpoint of your work or your creative self-expression.
With the Last Quarter Moon a week later, taking place on Monday, November 9th, you are gathering the fruits of your endeavors. Partnership poses challenges for you and also the reward of the wisdom that comes from fully traversing its territory. This idea gives you the impetus for further visioning of what you might be able to attempt and in time to become.
A week later, the New Moon of Monday, November 16th, represents a fresh start with the metamorphosis that has so engaged you, and provides a perhaps somewhat confusing glimpse of the further reality that awaits. Your transformation is far from complete, and will require your utmost calm and acceptance to see it through. Partners in your life constitute an important part of your process right now, and will lend their support and wise council, although not without some degree of friction. Over the last two weeks of the month these ideas will be percolating through your consciousness with long-term positive results, but you must wait patiently for them to sort themselves out.
The First Quarter Moon of the 24th will represent one moment of relative tension, which can also prove clarifying. The arc of your development right now is no simple highway, but involves itself much more fully with the twists and turns of the road represented by soul-level involvement than you might be ready for in your merely logical conscious mind. If you try to apply logic to the problem it will fall over, incapable of the task. Acceptance of what the universe has in store for you is the key. Only by a reliance on Spirit and your inner angels to guide you will you be able to sail through with flying colors.
Taurus
(April
19 - May 19) Earth. Ruling planet Venus. Top
This is the first month of the rest of your life, Taurus, in case you didn't know. The call of service to the greater collective that surrounds you has become profound, and along with it the chance to work one-on-one with helpful partners. Right from the very beginning of November you are seeing the future differently these days, with more sharing and more caring. Perspective shifts are major for you right now, and lead you to question everything that has gone before, but in a good way. The edifice you are building upon the wreckage of the old will be longer-lasting and make for a greater level of happiness, so why not jump on in? The only thing that you have to lose is your chains.
As the month begins, you are embodying service to others in an entirely new way, and investing time in facets of partnership that were previously unexplored. You are not just there for others for the sake of others, but also for yourself, and it is important to recognize the distinction. You continue to dig your own garden, and this is of ultimate importance for you, but it is at least partly through the agency of others that you must accomplish this task right now.
The Full Moon that begins the first week of the month, and that takes place on Monday, November 2nd, helps you to maintain this balancing act between self and other as you look ahead to the future and open up to new perspectives for yourself going forward. This is a wild and creative time for you, one that you will come to regard in future days as the crux of a turning point, both for yourself and for the surrounding culture. You are pulled this way and that but your track is steadily trending toward a distant goal that is now much more clearly perceived by your inner soul. Things might still appear confusing from the standpoint of your outer, more logical and thinking self. Confusion is almost expected in these circumstances; this speaks to the essentially illogical nature of the cosmos which works as the bible says, "in mysterious ways."
With the advent of the Last Quarter Moon of the following week, on Monday, November 9th, you are coming to a new understanding, since you have the distinct possibility at this time of recognizing what simply does not work along with what does. You are coming, through the school of hard knocks, to the wisdom to discern the difference – so that there is both a gain and a loss involved with these realizations.
The New Moon of Monday, November 16th, represents a fresh start in both partnering and self-realization. This is the time when you perhaps most fully recognize how your life and progress are bound up with that of significant others in your life, and how the gains that you now make are actually a species of joint triumph and a shared joy.
Over the remaining two weeks of the month there is the distinct possibility of tension and crossed purposes, but you are likely to find these challenges productive of greater insight. You have the determination right now to expand your perspective to include the largest possible picture. From the standpoint of the cosmos, everything is very much on track no matter how it might appear in the deceivingly ephemeral present moment.
Gemini
(May
20 - June 20) Air. Ruling planet Mercury. Top
You are in this for the long haul, Gemini., Even as you deal with the ephemeral shifts and turns of your workplace these days, and bow to the winds of change blowing through you, something inside you is telling you to have faith in the universe to uphold you. Service is an important component of everything that you do, because it takes you further toward what you are now beginning to recognize as your soul purpose. After the mid-month New Moon, important others in your life present you with a more compassionate perspective that enables further metamorphosis as you can allow it. It might sometimes seem as though you are stuck, but then, in an instant, the scene alters and you are cruising.
As the month begins, you are thoroughly exploring specific elements of your life path, and taking a long hard look at where things are headed for you when you include the perspective of Spirit in the equation. You are reinventing yourself in this current cycle, and your outreach to others around you is showing its softer side.
The beginning of the first week of the month, Monday, November 2nd, with its Full Moon, will be a time when these ideas solidify in terms of concrete manifestation. This could also be a time when career objectives and business priorities could morph rather suddenly in response to changing times or even for no apparent reason. The times are in flux, and whether you like it or not your worldview is changing right along with them. This in turn leads you to considerations that dictate a different channel on your personal dial, a forming mission statement more consistent with soul level values, one that has a chance of being the very thing that you came into this lifetime to perfect.
The Last Quarter Moon that comes along a week later, on Monday, November 9th, brings these considerations to the fore, with perhaps also some degree of tension in the mix. You are at this time embarking on new explorations of your possibilities, which is an essentially happy process that could involve actual travel plans or other means of educational shifting of your perspective, but there also could be communication difficulties at this time. There is potential conflict possible with mates or business partners that could provide a few kinks in the road of your progress, but which also serve to clarify your own position.
The New Moon one week later, taking place on Monday, November 16th, brings a new set of ideas for breaking through to what is really necessary and important. This period of time also reiterates the positive possibilities inherent in working with others. This might be a difficult time; you are taking a position that reveals the essentially paradoxical nature of human as opposed to merely physical realities, and this can be a confusing prospect for your merely logical mental function that likes everything to line up in easily enumerated rows and figures.
Then too at this time the course that you are taking in business or career, due to sudden changes of circumstances in this area, could seem to be a house built on shifting sand, and this insecurity as to definite direction is also likely to be crazy making. In the process of the last two weeks of the month, these ideas will be much more gracefully sorted out, the more so the more you can let go and let the universe, as it were.
Although the First Quarter Moon of the 24th might provide a moment of tension for your process, you win when you put your faith in the efficacy of your deep soul guidance and the power of the universe to sustain you no matter what. It helps to recognize that although we think and plan as though we know the road we are traveling in actual fact we only know a small part of the story.
Cancer
(June
21 - July 21) Water. Ruling planet is the Moon. Top
You are working on your stuff, Cancer, along with everyone else that you know, and for you, core security needs are an important component. You are likely to further explore this issue in the weeks ahead. Home and family concerns seem stuck but can morph rapidly, leading you out of the trap, as changing worldviews alter your perception of events. These epiphanies are hopefully nudging you toward an attitude of no blame, not for you, not for anyone else. This seems obvious in theory, although the difficulty is still there in actually manifesting this ideal. Different times and changing relationship dynamics call for different responses. True compassion is dawning within you but you must rise to meet it.
As the month begins, you are seeking the fulfillment of your dreams and schemes from a place that is deep within you. Home and family concerns are always an important consideration with you, and right now more than ever. You are in some ways breaking out of old patterns that show up in your core-level psychology and in family interactions, and in other ways you might feel like you are incredibly stuck, but finding beauty in the stuckness. Your goal is to modify these older patterns, and the stuck places also, as you engage in an entirely thorough-going and ultimately beneficial transformation of values and goals and of the methods you use to arrive at them.
With the Full Moon that starts the first week of the month, on Monday, November 2nd, you are feeling the mandate for change. There is a future self that is blossoming in connection with the on-going exploration of your roots that you are currently engaged in, and you can feel its presence even though the faint outline is difficult to see clearly. This involves perspective shifts that are quite sudden at times. As the epiphanies slide into place and the tumblers of your locked self begin to click and gratefully open you will experience the rush of being in at least two places at once, with one of them far beyond and much deeper than the everyday world and yet so close to it that you can almost touch it.
The Last Quarter Moon one week later, taking place on Monday, November 9th, might provide some points of tension in your unfolding process of awareness, but also the deep joy of feeling your way through to the right path forward for yourself. You are intent on discovering a true form of security that has nothing to do with your bank account but relies on the more everlasting received wisdom that stems from life and living.
When the Scorpio New Moon comes along one week later in your sector of self-expression, taking place on Monday November 16th, you are reveling in the freshness of the moment and the promise of further positive change. This mid-month period represents a mystical crossroads, when not everything is as it seems and yet when the ordinary realities of day-to-day existence are just as present as ever, illuminated by your deeper experience into something that is simultaneously more rich and strange.
The last two weeks of the month provides both challenges and successes. You are reinventing yourself in this current era and taking into account as you do so input from partners and from your own deeper centers. The former might be difficult to hear at times, and might even play out like criticism, but there is a way to reframe this into useful feedback if you manage to stay centered. Sometimes when what you hear doesn't make you feel good there is a way around it that makes you feel better on reflection. The secret is to have the presence of mind to breathe, and to count to ten before reacting.
Leo
(July
22 - August 21) Fire. Ruling planet
is the Sun. Top
Communication and outreach is the name of your game right now, Leo. You have energy for relationships of all kinds, business partners and more intimate ones, and your mission is to use that energy wisely. You could well find that some degree of perplexity reigns in the area of interpersonal relationships, with also the possibility of sudden breakthrough. You are in the process of shucking old patterns and this can be a confusing but ultimately rewarding process, as you come to a new understanding of what you are about in this important area. Of course, it is also important to keep firmly in mind that these roads that bring others into the picture in the end lead you back to yourself.
As the month begins, you are feeling some degree of collision between home and family issues and partnership concerns, with your work in the world thrown in. You have some big ideas right now for what you could be doing and what outreach you can make to ensure that the possibilities you envision have the best chance of coming through for you. You are entirely in earnest about how you approach others around you, so that your communication is both more somber and takes on a serious purpose every time you speak. You are finding the way through the underbrush of circumstance toward what you have recently began to imagine as your life path going forward.
With the Full Moon that begins the first week of the month, taking place on Monday, November 2nd, you are reaching for the flowering of the impulse from the previous New Moon in October that sought to marry sense and sensibility with compassionate outreach toward everyone around you. The essentially internal self-transformation that you are engaged in has its reflection in outer world activity at this time. This current cycle kicks off an active period for you of many weeks and months, lasting through winter and into the spring of 2010.
With the advent of the Last Quarter Moon of the following week, taking place on Monday, November 9th, you are in some sense coming to terms with the most fundamental ingredients of your plan, seeing what works and what doesn't. You are also evaluating the inherent tension in this process. You have an entirely optimistic and even visionary idea about significant persons in your life at this time, and your idealism in this area can even border on self-deception, or actual deception on the part of others, something to watch for and to work through.
With the New Moon of the following Monday, the 16th of the month, it is time for a fresh start with domestic concerns and with other aspects of your home environment. This laps over into your psychological roots and core security needs. Meanwhile, and for the remainder of the month, there are confusing idealizations on the partnership front to deal with. Old relationship patterns that you are ready to outgrow could also come up at this time for better understanding and eventual healing. You are engaged in quite a growth spurt in this latter half of the month, and although it comes upon you in fits and starts, with maybe two steps backward now and then, it does trend toward wholeness.
The Quarter Moon that punctuates this period takes place on Tuesday, the 24th, and could conceivably represent kinks in the road of your progress. You are forging ahead with important plans for the future that take you closer to refining your life path along lines that are consciously more fully realized, and this takes time and psychic energy, as well as side-stepping the snares of self-delusion. The key lies in trusting where the universe is leading you in spite of rather than because of your overt plans.
Virgo
(August
22 - September 21) Earth. Ruling planet
Mercury. Top
It might be difficult and it might be easy, Virgo, but it will certainly be interesting. This is a time of gathering your energy for your next phase and of learning more about what you will become when you grow up. If this is a rough ride you are on at least you have lots of company and there are plentiful rewards for staying the course. You are experiencing sudden enlightenment through friends and partners that could help to pave the way for a helpful attitude adjustment. Security issues that you may have, and how you deal with finances, are hot-button items for you as you go through this month's set of changes. Partly as a result, you are transforming in the way that you project yourself out into the world.
As the month begins, you are changing your approach once again, still morphing into the person that you will eventually become over the course of this dramatic year. Your values and your basis for security are an increasingly visible part of your life journey right now, and finances may continue to occupy your attention. It helps to recognize that whatever you do or don't do, the universe has a plan for you that will prevail over all your attempted protestations.
The Full Moon that begins the first week of the month, taking place on Monday, November 2nd, signals a time when you are seeking the balance point for educational in-flow and out-flow. This is a great time to consider all kinds of mental activity such as writing and teaching. This is obviously a terrific time for journaling as well, or for sharing your deepest truth with like-minded others.
The conversation heats up a week later with the Last Quarter Moon of the 9th taking place in your sector of dream worlds and inner unfolding. The days surrounding constitute a period of tension, when creative sparks may fly. This is also a time when you will be getting closer to understanding your ideal career or life path – your "dream job." Part of this new-found understanding is coming from an almost entirely unconscious or pre-conscious place right now, so that it pays to go slowly and to examine the nuances of your situation for clues to what this is all about anyway, and where you are heading.
The New Moon that comes along a week further on, taking place on Monday, November 16th, is a powerful time of further opening. This represents another opportunity to make the best out of what are perhaps difficult life circumstances right now. Home and family concerns and security needs are likely to predominate. Sudden epiphanies that arrive on your doorstep by way of helpful partners might be more the rule at this time than the exception. You are seeking to find a way home to what feels natural rather than forced or the result of others' expectations, and this is no easy or conceptually simple task.
The First Quarter Moon of Tuesday, November 24th, might represent a moment of tension in your evolutionary process, a time when partnership interaction will likely be both helpful in sorting out your priorities and a contrast to your own viewpoint that proves clarifying. All through these last two weeks of the month your self-expression is blossoming in ways that are new to you and not a little strange, to the point of being difficult to understand and to accommodate by those that know you best. You must recognize that whatever road you are on, it is your own path. This path is one that you must walk alone in many ways, in spite of the support of loved ones, and is the right path for you at this time, all appearances to the contrary notwithstanding.
Libra
(September
22 - October 22) Air. Ruling planet Venus. Top
This month that follows your birthday represents a great moment of burgeoning awareness as you take on a new persona and begin to concretely act it out in the world. As you grapple with inner patterns and take a serious look at your new mission statement, at the same time you are exploring a powerful set of revelations that stem from the very core of your being and that practically shut you down in terms of outer agenda. You must form your own unique path through the soul truth that you experiencing right now and it takes all you've got. That doesn't mean that you can't have fun with this. The saints laugh, because at bottom they and you remain eternally joyous to be alive.
As the month begins, you are riding the wave of the New Moon in your sign from the middle of last month. The powerful configurations of this period initiated a time when you are clearly more active both mentally and physically, and are also filled with idealism. You are also perhaps a bit confused as you are evolving in some very different directions from what might be on your conscious agenda. Since Saturn entered into your identity sector just before the start of the month, on October 29th, you are getting quite serious about these changes that you find yourself in the midst of.
With the Full Moon of Monday, November 2nd, you are still partaking of a less worldly agenda, now investigated it from the standpoint of self and other. Significant partners in your life will prove to be integral to your own development at this time, providing both the difficulty of merging different points of view into your own and the joy and expansion of doing so. There is a way that the opinions of others are crucial for you now, and help you to define your connection to your future self; and there is a way that you also find that you must preserve your own integrity and your own autonomy all the more aggressively because they do.
The Last Quarter Moon of Monday, November 9th, serves to exacerbate these basic considerations by highlighting the difficulties in getting along with others, and with simultaneously acknowledging your own core needs, and also the fundamental optimism that you bring to the table right now, the feeing that you can move mountains. This feeling will stand you in good stead in the weeks to come, as you get deeper into the inevitable changes that this period of time holds for you leading up to the end of the year. Like the Roman god Janis you are looking back right now as well as forward, making this second week of the month a terrific time for journaling.
With the New Moon of the following week, taking place on Monday, November 16th, you are ready to make a fresh start with the development that you are in the midst of, and with the resources that you will need to accomplish it, peripherally including financial ones. This is a confused period of time for you regarding monetary concerns, and the ultimate meaning of finances in your life. While it is true that happiness does not derive from financial stability, such form of security does make it easier to cultivate a relaxed state of mind that is so necessary for pursuing your true goals. The trick that you might be able to come to over this closing period of the month is to proceed as though the financial aspects were already covered, and see what comes out of that, remembering all the while that your true soul purpose is being revealed to you more and more.
The First Quarter Moon of Tuesday the 24th punctuates this process and definitely presents you with a few curve balls, which also turn out to be enlightening. Intuition is a powerful factor for you over this entire monthly cycle. This period of time is only difficult when you refuse to accept the fact that everything is changing for you and that you might as well go along with the program. Once you start to seriously consider the idea that the steering wheel is out of your hands you can begin to relax and simply enjoy the ride.
Scorpio
(October
23 - Nov 21) Water. Ruling planets Mars,
Pluto. Top
This is a month of great outer as well as inner work, Scorpio. You are manifesting and achieving, no doubt about it. You may also encounter a trace of tension in your process as you face challenges to your equanimity that can be decoded as a series of tests to your new persona. You are finding both joy and madness in issues that remain at your psychological root level or as revealed in home and family interactions that have come back to haunt you. You can put these to bed with a determined effort to look on the bright side and see the glass of your evolution as half full rather than letting the darker side of your imagination detract in any way from your ultimate success.
As the month begins, you are feasting on outer world excellence while still hopefully staying true to recent inner world explorations. You are currently emerging out of the depth of your unconscious process into the light of everyday events and priorities, and yet carrying with you the memory and the utility of the time spent within the darkness of your interior knowing. As you know intuitively, there is much more to your existence than superficial logic or surface events will allow for. The darkness informs the light.
The Full Moon that begins the first week of the month, on Monday, November 2nd, opens you up to further dimensions of your experience and brings outer manifestation more sharply into focus. You are also coming into new awareness regarding the interaction of important others in your life, who during this month will contribute mightily to your ongoing process. You are very active in the world at this time, and you will continue to be so for the next several months, although you might shift your priorities somewhat when your ruler Mars turns retrograde in mid-December. You are feeling like something has to give in terms of the way that you do things, and yet have also the basic confidence to assume that it is all just part of the plan right now., at least when you are able to access it.
The Last Quarter Moon of the following Monday, the 9th, puts you in an optimistic mood, increasing your faith in your current arc of development, while providing a thoughtful reflection on what has gone before, although perhaps this happens through the agency of some degree of turmoil. Relationship with significant others in your life, including business partners, is important at this time as well, and can be quite useful in allowing you to explore other points of view as well as your own.
The New Moon that follows a week later, taking place on Monday, November 16th, provides a fresh start for increasing integration and wholeness which could however prove to be disruptive in the short term. You are at this time wrestling with issues of deep interiority from an entirely new angle, and it might take you quite a while to really get a grip. This is because as a natural consequence, the collision of your present-tense identity with your ancient inner one can be confusing, even self-deceptive at times.
The last two weeks of the month will be a time for working these issues out, punctuated by the First Quarter Moon of Tuesday the 24th. This moment of intensity has the effect of increasing your awareness of the changes that you are in the midst of right now. On the one hand you are filled with the joy of delving down into your roots and discovering there what is to be discovered, while on the other there is the mystery and the illusion created out of too much exposure to a double vision that transcends ordinary reality.
Then too, old patterns that are ready to be discarded might be coming up for your conscious attention at this time, which can also be unsettling. It is important to take everything that happens as it comes, as something to animate with your intelligence rather than to seek to control or to flee from.
Sagittarius
(Nov
22 - Dec 20) Fire. Ruling planet Jupiter. Top
This is a darkly magical month for you, Sagittarius. The last two weeks of October have been good, and have made you fortunate in your visioning capabilities for future-oriented societal connection, whether or not you have consciously acknowledged these powers. It is a new mandate for social change that you are currently experiencing. On the other hand, there is a fated quality to all that you have chosen to take on, and a seriousness to your attitude there that leads to greater wisdom surrounding your choices. This entire cycle of events will improve your understanding of the values you aspire to and the way you operate in the world in order to grant yourself a sense of security in challenging times.
As the month begins, you are riding the wave of the Libra New Moon from mid-October than took place in your sector of goals and societal involvement. Events lately have conspired to put you in the driver's seat for significant life change that connects you to soul purpose and while doing so, and enhance your communicative outreach to everyone around you.
The Full Moon of Monday, November 2nd marks the flowering of this ongoing cycle and the lead-in to the next. This is a time when you are more deeply engaged in exploring secret inner realms of dream imagination than in dwelling in the chaotic activity that characterizes the merely material plane of outer events. Just as the world that you inhabit in your sleep is restorative and generative of daytime energy and experience, so too your inner world, richer and stranger than you might suppose, informs and provides the foundation for the more obvious day-to-day waking mode. With the aid of angel powers only to be found within, you are investigating further facets of your ongoing direction. You are seeking the life path that corresponds more directly to your soul purpose and that you arrive at only with the passage of time.
The Last Quarter Moon a week later, taking place on Monday, November 9th, traditionally represents bumps in the road of your progress, and is a time when you might become more focused on what parts of the plan refuse to work themselves out rather than what succeeds. In any case you will experience an increased awareness of your situation at this time, and one that opens up into new perspectives and new ideas for the future.
The New Moon a week later represents a similar time of waiting and watching since you are still operating from behind the scenes, as it were. You are acutely aware at this time of the essential fragility of your current circumstances, in which it seems that the road is long and the destination misty and unclear. Still something compels your onward, and it might well be your inner wisdom that is calling upon you to make a grater effort to connect with it. You are mentally acute at this time, and your communication has the effect of revealing the more sensitive and hidden sides of your nature, so that you might feel within you the tendency to pull back from too close a contact.
This is a time also when you recognize and take more seriously the societal connections that seem to be the most productive for you. You are playing for keeps right now, and the feeling of responsibility that has been your watchword in recent months has taken a new turn that is more future-oriented.
With the First Quarter Moon of the 24th, you are taking these ideas to the streets and seeing what might come out of them for an actual result. This is obviously an important time, when your concept of resources and finances is nagging, and when your feeling of what it might take to get yourself in gear might seem rather insurmountable. These concepts continue to percolate over the next few weeks, into December, when you will have a better, although an even more idealized sense, of what you are attempting; others will help you along your way.
Capricorn
(Dec
21 - Jan 19) Earth. Ruling planet Saturn. Top
Your times they are a'changing, Capricorn. So are everyone else's but right now you are ahead of the curve. You seek to transform all that has grown stale in your life and that no longer serves you, and the pace is accelerating. When you hold back and attempt to stay static, you make things difficult for yourself, whereas when you go with the flow of recent life developments you enhance all your possibilities. It helps to remember that the changes that are being thrust upon you are ultimately in your own best interest, and will see you through. It's only a question of whether you go painfully, or easily and gladly, into the future that is building for you.
As the month begins, you are getting out into the world of concrete manifestation in a totally new way. Business is hard work for you now, but the recognition is there for you too, and the certainty of long-term reward. Personal transformation continues into this November timeframe with perhaps a harder and a more productive edge. The pain that is associated with negotiating change always lies in direct proportion to your natural inclination for resistance. Get past that and learn to let go and you've got it licked.
With the Full Moon of Monday, November 2nd, the pace of change accelerates. You are seeing the advantages as well as the drawbacks of abandoning your entrenched position, and are making a positive attempt to move on in your life, although still negotiating the distress this brings to your intimate connections and to yourself also.
The Last Quarter Moon a week later, taking place on Monday, November 9th, represents another moment of tension in your process of growing awareness. You are fortunate at this time in the resources that you will require to make a needed breakthrough, although again not without some source of conflict with others around you. Right now you are rubbing up against the changes that your future self requires and it can be a painful time since until acceptance comes, your resistance is generally the sabotaging factor. This second week of the month is a good time for evaluating what works for you and what doesn't, and for checking out how far you have actually come almost in spite of yourself.
With the New Moon of Monday, November 16th, you are making a fresh start with plans and goals and with the societal connections that will take you to the next level. You are surrounded by grace at this time, and there is a sense of the miraculous that follows you through your day. You are in a positive and even idealized space with regard to ways and means that might even be a little confusing, considering the potential hardships. Information that comes to you quite suddenly from the depths of your intuition can be trusted as long as you can feel it concretely somewhere in your body. The concept will serve you well right now that there is wisdom beyond knowledge. In the final two weeks of the month you will be following up on and acting out the considerations of the first two.
Especially in the week of the New Moon your thoughts are vitalized and lead you to amazing consequences. Be careful what you wish for at this time for your wishes are very likely to come true. In spite of all the mental constructs that you can bring to bear that seem to negate this basic truth, it is essentially blind faith that leads you though all the potential missteps, a belief in the fundamental beneficence of the cosmos that surrounds you and that pervades your actions.
Aquarius
(Jan
20 - Feb 18) Air. Ruling planets Uranus,
Saturn. Top
This is a powerful time for you, Aquarius. A rapidly changing worldview has created opportunities that were previously dim or nonexistent, giving you much food for thought as you ascend the mountain of your destiny. Your transformation takes hold of you from the inside out. This is also a time when you are shucking off pieces of the story you tell yourself that no longer fit, and transcending old patterns that no longer serve you, and it can be confusing and painful as you do. Encapsulated within what you are going through are the seeds of celebration, that comes when you simply accept it that your life is no longer the same, and you are lighter and move more easily because of it.
As the month begins, you are riding the wave of the New Moon of mid-October and the alterations in perspective and in awareness that accompanied it. These are big times for you and even more so as you edge into November. Interior shifts in perspective are heralds for outer world results over these final weeks of this climactic year.
With the Full Moon of Monday, November 2nd, you are seeking a balance point between public and private initiatives as well as between self and other, and taking it to the streets with your head and your heart. Creative tensions could arise with active partners in your life, and these spark your interest in business activities of all kinds and in personal exploration. You are feeling the joy of the encounter with hidden parts of your being that may not always be given their due as part and parcel of your waking life. You are firmly embarked at this time on a voyage of discovery that will not cease until you recognize the potency of your inner world.
Over these few months leading up to your birthday you will come into more comfortable alignment with these relatively unconscious factors of your being, moving through the uncertainty that they represent and the pain of doubt that you might find when you pierce the veil of secrecy that surrounds them. Although what exact form this will take remains to be seen, it is a truism that there are more things to be discovered in the direction that lies within than we can easily imagine using mere logic and mental constructs.
At the time of the Last Quarter Moon of Monday, November 9th, you may find a degree of tension in your process that strongly effects close relationships, and that presents you with the evidence of the senses that you will need to continue your journey with confidence and courage. There is an optimistic flair to your interactions with others at this time that takes you far, and that if anything might need to be tempered with a dose of caution. You are fully engaged at this time also in a process of reflection on where this current arc of development is ultimately taking you, and how far you might be able to go in the direction of greater understanding. With the New Moon of the following week, taking place on Monday, November 16th, you are coming to a new sense of purpose and of outer world capability that perhaps is a consequence of your inner migration. You are also at this time in a totally confused and confusing place of partial acceptance of the insufficiency of the cause-and-effect world of events to predict outcomes for you.
The final two weeks of the month will constitute a working out of these ideas that are swirling around in your mind these days, punctuated by the First Quarter Moon of Tuesday, November 24th, when the pressure to break through into a new worldview might be particularly intense. The acceptance of paradox as a natural and fundamental component of your universe is antithetical to 20th century conditioning and your own scientific bent but is vital to your continued success as a human being.
Pisces
(Feb
19 - March 19) Water. Ruling planets Neptune, Jupiter. Top
This is an extremely active time for you, Pisces, but not obviously so. There is a lot happening and it is all behind the scenes. Destabilizing revelations are still as plentiful as they have been in recent weeks, maybe even more so, but you are less than reactive on the surface. Your ship of state keeps sailing on, although you might be in a ferment below decks. You are perceiving things more clearly now, and exploring your options with a different perspective. This as you prepare to make an important move toward what you can see as your emerging life path. The time for action is not yet but it is coming soon, before the end of the year, and when it does it will be dramatic.
As the month begins, you are still feeling the energy of the New Moon from the middle of last month that stimulated your sector of intimacy and personal transformation. You are on a roll at this time in your life, no two ways about it. You are also likely to be feeling the somewhat blocked and stifling force of Saturn in this same sector, granting you both a separation from others around you and a sense of seriousness for your own inner process.
The Full Moon of Monday, November 2nd, represents the fullness of the balance that must be reached between your perspective and another's before there can be a true mutuality of ideas. You are putting your money where your mouth is these days, going for the communication and the sensibility that will express, not even in words, the goal that you are trying for and the culmination that you are actively seeking. Where your head and your heart join forces, they assist in finding the vocation that is truly coherent with your deepest values and your higher-mind understanding. This month initiates a weeks-long investigation into just that conundrum.
The Last Quarter Moon of Monday, November 9th, represents kinks in the road of progress and also a concentration of your conscious energy on long-term goals. This is also a time when you will find that day-to-day considerations take you further into your process of discovery than you would have ever imagined. There is some special amalgam of spiritual necessity and the events of ordinary life that conspire to make a new way of thinking possible.
With the New Moon of Monday, November 16th, you are ready to launch yourself into new ways of seeing, and as a consequence of being, in the world. This is a potential conflict for you with everything that has gone before, a complete departure, and yet also somehow a quite necessary consequence of your prior history. The ability to hold mutually contradictory ideas in your head at the same time is a sign of maturity.
Over the last two weeks of the month, and especially when the First Quarter Moon of Tuesday, November 24th, hits in your identity sector you are applying the lessons learned. This is another moment of potential conflict between public and private, and between what you feel and what you think, as you attempt to sort your priorities according to what makes you feel like you are doing what you came into this lifetime to accomplish. You are mustering the resources and the higher mind commitment to complete your task as you now see it, and like the classical sculptor removing any part of the stone that is not your masterpiece.
As the month begins, you are full to the brim with enlightened self-expression that is both sensitive to nuance and at times rather abruptly visionary. You are definitely coming to the bottom-line conclusion that Spirit must be a fundamental part of the equation before you'll even begin to commit yourself, and now more than ever. This is a time to grow yourself downward as well as up, and you know this in your heart as well as in your head. It is surprising how easy you can make it for yourself when you yield to the bounty and let your life flow in a direction that is congruent with your highest purpose for yourself.
The Full Moon of the first Monday of the month sets the stage for further revelation. You are centered in self and your own security needs while from this base still managing to reach out to others around you in a creative way. It is truly the gold of inner meaning that motivates you now, rather than its yellow substitute that pales in comparison. There is transformation in the air for you these days, and your concrete presence in the world is changing, whether considered from the standpoint of your work or your creative self-expression.
With the Last Quarter Moon a week later, taking place on Monday, November 9th, you are gathering the fruits of your endeavors. Partnership poses challenges for you and also the reward of the wisdom that comes from fully traversing its territory. This idea gives you the impetus for further visioning of what you might be able to attempt and in time to become.
A week later, the New Moon of Monday, November 16th, represents a fresh start with the metamorphosis that has so engaged you, and provides a perhaps somewhat confusing glimpse of the further reality that awaits. Your transformation is far from complete, and will require your utmost calm and acceptance to see it through. Partners in your life constitute an important part of your process right now, and will lend their support and wise council, although not without some degree of friction. Over the last two weeks of the month these ideas will be percolating through your consciousness with long-term positive results, but you must wait patiently for them to sort themselves out.
The First Quarter Moon of the 24th will represent one moment of relative tension, which can also prove clarifying. The arc of your development right now is no simple highway, but involves itself much more fully with the twists and turns of the road represented by soul-level involvement than you might be ready for in your merely logical conscious mind. If you try to apply logic to the problem it will fall over, incapable of the task. Acceptance of what the universe has in store for you is the key. Only by a reliance on Spirit and your inner angels to guide you will you be able to sail through with flying colors.
Taurus
(April
19 - May 19) Earth. Ruling planet Venus. TopThis is the first month of the rest of your life, Taurus, in case you didn't know. The call of service to the greater collective that surrounds you has become profound, and along with it the chance to work one-on-one with helpful partners. Right from the very beginning of November you are seeing the future differently these days, with more sharing and more caring. Perspective shifts are major for you right now, and lead you to question everything that has gone before, but in a good way. The edifice you are building upon the wreckage of the old will be longer-lasting and make for a greater level of happiness, so why not jump on in? The only thing that you have to lose is your chains.
As the month begins, you are embodying service to others in an entirely new way, and investing time in facets of partnership that were previously unexplored. You are not just there for others for the sake of others, but also for yourself, and it is important to recognize the distinction. You continue to dig your own garden, and this is of ultimate importance for you, but it is at least partly through the agency of others that you must accomplish this task right now.
The Full Moon that begins the first week of the month, and that takes place on Monday, November 2nd, helps you to maintain this balancing act between self and other as you look ahead to the future and open up to new perspectives for yourself going forward. This is a wild and creative time for you, one that you will come to regard in future days as the crux of a turning point, both for yourself and for the surrounding culture. You are pulled this way and that but your track is steadily trending toward a distant goal that is now much more clearly perceived by your inner soul. Things might still appear confusing from the standpoint of your outer, more logical and thinking self. Confusion is almost expected in these circumstances; this speaks to the essentially illogical nature of the cosmos which works as the bible says, "in mysterious ways."
With the advent of the Last Quarter Moon of the following week, on Monday, November 9th, you are coming to a new understanding, since you have the distinct possibility at this time of recognizing what simply does not work along with what does. You are coming, through the school of hard knocks, to the wisdom to discern the difference – so that there is both a gain and a loss involved with these realizations.
The New Moon of Monday, November 16th, represents a fresh start in both partnering and self-realization. This is the time when you perhaps most fully recognize how your life and progress are bound up with that of significant others in your life, and how the gains that you now make are actually a species of joint triumph and a shared joy.
Over the remaining two weeks of the month there is the distinct possibility of tension and crossed purposes, but you are likely to find these challenges productive of greater insight. You have the determination right now to expand your perspective to include the largest possible picture. From the standpoint of the cosmos, everything is very much on track no matter how it might appear in the deceivingly ephemeral present moment.
Gemini
(May
20 - June 20) Air. Ruling planet Mercury. TopYou are in this for the long haul, Gemini., Even as you deal with the ephemeral shifts and turns of your workplace these days, and bow to the winds of change blowing through you, something inside you is telling you to have faith in the universe to uphold you. Service is an important component of everything that you do, because it takes you further toward what you are now beginning to recognize as your soul purpose. After the mid-month New Moon, important others in your life present you with a more compassionate perspective that enables further metamorphosis as you can allow it. It might sometimes seem as though you are stuck, but then, in an instant, the scene alters and you are cruising.
As the month begins, you are thoroughly exploring specific elements of your life path, and taking a long hard look at where things are headed for you when you include the perspective of Spirit in the equation. You are reinventing yourself in this current cycle, and your outreach to others around you is showing its softer side.
The beginning of the first week of the month, Monday, November 2nd, with its Full Moon, will be a time when these ideas solidify in terms of concrete manifestation. This could also be a time when career objectives and business priorities could morph rather suddenly in response to changing times or even for no apparent reason. The times are in flux, and whether you like it or not your worldview is changing right along with them. This in turn leads you to considerations that dictate a different channel on your personal dial, a forming mission statement more consistent with soul level values, one that has a chance of being the very thing that you came into this lifetime to perfect.
The Last Quarter Moon that comes along a week later, on Monday, November 9th, brings these considerations to the fore, with perhaps also some degree of tension in the mix. You are at this time embarking on new explorations of your possibilities, which is an essentially happy process that could involve actual travel plans or other means of educational shifting of your perspective, but there also could be communication difficulties at this time. There is potential conflict possible with mates or business partners that could provide a few kinks in the road of your progress, but which also serve to clarify your own position.
The New Moon one week later, taking place on Monday, November 16th, brings a new set of ideas for breaking through to what is really necessary and important. This period of time also reiterates the positive possibilities inherent in working with others. This might be a difficult time; you are taking a position that reveals the essentially paradoxical nature of human as opposed to merely physical realities, and this can be a confusing prospect for your merely logical mental function that likes everything to line up in easily enumerated rows and figures.
Then too at this time the course that you are taking in business or career, due to sudden changes of circumstances in this area, could seem to be a house built on shifting sand, and this insecurity as to definite direction is also likely to be crazy making. In the process of the last two weeks of the month, these ideas will be much more gracefully sorted out, the more so the more you can let go and let the universe, as it were.
Although the First Quarter Moon of the 24th might provide a moment of tension for your process, you win when you put your faith in the efficacy of your deep soul guidance and the power of the universe to sustain you no matter what. It helps to recognize that although we think and plan as though we know the road we are traveling in actual fact we only know a small part of the story.
Cancer
(June
21 - July 21) Water. Ruling planet is the Moon. TopYou are working on your stuff, Cancer, along with everyone else that you know, and for you, core security needs are an important component. You are likely to further explore this issue in the weeks ahead. Home and family concerns seem stuck but can morph rapidly, leading you out of the trap, as changing worldviews alter your perception of events. These epiphanies are hopefully nudging you toward an attitude of no blame, not for you, not for anyone else. This seems obvious in theory, although the difficulty is still there in actually manifesting this ideal. Different times and changing relationship dynamics call for different responses. True compassion is dawning within you but you must rise to meet it.
As the month begins, you are seeking the fulfillment of your dreams and schemes from a place that is deep within you. Home and family concerns are always an important consideration with you, and right now more than ever. You are in some ways breaking out of old patterns that show up in your core-level psychology and in family interactions, and in other ways you might feel like you are incredibly stuck, but finding beauty in the stuckness. Your goal is to modify these older patterns, and the stuck places also, as you engage in an entirely thorough-going and ultimately beneficial transformation of values and goals and of the methods you use to arrive at them.
With the Full Moon that starts the first week of the month, on Monday, November 2nd, you are feeling the mandate for change. There is a future self that is blossoming in connection with the on-going exploration of your roots that you are currently engaged in, and you can feel its presence even though the faint outline is difficult to see clearly. This involves perspective shifts that are quite sudden at times. As the epiphanies slide into place and the tumblers of your locked self begin to click and gratefully open you will experience the rush of being in at least two places at once, with one of them far beyond and much deeper than the everyday world and yet so close to it that you can almost touch it.
The Last Quarter Moon one week later, taking place on Monday, November 9th, might provide some points of tension in your unfolding process of awareness, but also the deep joy of feeling your way through to the right path forward for yourself. You are intent on discovering a true form of security that has nothing to do with your bank account but relies on the more everlasting received wisdom that stems from life and living.
When the Scorpio New Moon comes along one week later in your sector of self-expression, taking place on Monday November 16th, you are reveling in the freshness of the moment and the promise of further positive change. This mid-month period represents a mystical crossroads, when not everything is as it seems and yet when the ordinary realities of day-to-day existence are just as present as ever, illuminated by your deeper experience into something that is simultaneously more rich and strange.
The last two weeks of the month provides both challenges and successes. You are reinventing yourself in this current era and taking into account as you do so input from partners and from your own deeper centers. The former might be difficult to hear at times, and might even play out like criticism, but there is a way to reframe this into useful feedback if you manage to stay centered. Sometimes when what you hear doesn't make you feel good there is a way around it that makes you feel better on reflection. The secret is to have the presence of mind to breathe, and to count to ten before reacting.
Leo
(July
22 - August 21) Fire. Ruling planet
is the Sun. TopCommunication and outreach is the name of your game right now, Leo. You have energy for relationships of all kinds, business partners and more intimate ones, and your mission is to use that energy wisely. You could well find that some degree of perplexity reigns in the area of interpersonal relationships, with also the possibility of sudden breakthrough. You are in the process of shucking old patterns and this can be a confusing but ultimately rewarding process, as you come to a new understanding of what you are about in this important area. Of course, it is also important to keep firmly in mind that these roads that bring others into the picture in the end lead you back to yourself.
As the month begins, you are feeling some degree of collision between home and family issues and partnership concerns, with your work in the world thrown in. You have some big ideas right now for what you could be doing and what outreach you can make to ensure that the possibilities you envision have the best chance of coming through for you. You are entirely in earnest about how you approach others around you, so that your communication is both more somber and takes on a serious purpose every time you speak. You are finding the way through the underbrush of circumstance toward what you have recently began to imagine as your life path going forward.
With the Full Moon that begins the first week of the month, taking place on Monday, November 2nd, you are reaching for the flowering of the impulse from the previous New Moon in October that sought to marry sense and sensibility with compassionate outreach toward everyone around you. The essentially internal self-transformation that you are engaged in has its reflection in outer world activity at this time. This current cycle kicks off an active period for you of many weeks and months, lasting through winter and into the spring of 2010.
With the advent of the Last Quarter Moon of the following week, taking place on Monday, November 9th, you are in some sense coming to terms with the most fundamental ingredients of your plan, seeing what works and what doesn't. You are also evaluating the inherent tension in this process. You have an entirely optimistic and even visionary idea about significant persons in your life at this time, and your idealism in this area can even border on self-deception, or actual deception on the part of others, something to watch for and to work through.
With the New Moon of the following Monday, the 16th of the month, it is time for a fresh start with domestic concerns and with other aspects of your home environment. This laps over into your psychological roots and core security needs. Meanwhile, and for the remainder of the month, there are confusing idealizations on the partnership front to deal with. Old relationship patterns that you are ready to outgrow could also come up at this time for better understanding and eventual healing. You are engaged in quite a growth spurt in this latter half of the month, and although it comes upon you in fits and starts, with maybe two steps backward now and then, it does trend toward wholeness.
The Quarter Moon that punctuates this period takes place on Tuesday, the 24th, and could conceivably represent kinks in the road of your progress. You are forging ahead with important plans for the future that take you closer to refining your life path along lines that are consciously more fully realized, and this takes time and psychic energy, as well as side-stepping the snares of self-delusion. The key lies in trusting where the universe is leading you in spite of rather than because of your overt plans.
Virgo
(August
22 - September 21) Earth. Ruling planet
Mercury. TopIt might be difficult and it might be easy, Virgo, but it will certainly be interesting. This is a time of gathering your energy for your next phase and of learning more about what you will become when you grow up. If this is a rough ride you are on at least you have lots of company and there are plentiful rewards for staying the course. You are experiencing sudden enlightenment through friends and partners that could help to pave the way for a helpful attitude adjustment. Security issues that you may have, and how you deal with finances, are hot-button items for you as you go through this month's set of changes. Partly as a result, you are transforming in the way that you project yourself out into the world.
As the month begins, you are changing your approach once again, still morphing into the person that you will eventually become over the course of this dramatic year. Your values and your basis for security are an increasingly visible part of your life journey right now, and finances may continue to occupy your attention. It helps to recognize that whatever you do or don't do, the universe has a plan for you that will prevail over all your attempted protestations.
The Full Moon that begins the first week of the month, taking place on Monday, November 2nd, signals a time when you are seeking the balance point for educational in-flow and out-flow. This is a great time to consider all kinds of mental activity such as writing and teaching. This is obviously a terrific time for journaling as well, or for sharing your deepest truth with like-minded others.
The conversation heats up a week later with the Last Quarter Moon of the 9th taking place in your sector of dream worlds and inner unfolding. The days surrounding constitute a period of tension, when creative sparks may fly. This is also a time when you will be getting closer to understanding your ideal career or life path – your "dream job." Part of this new-found understanding is coming from an almost entirely unconscious or pre-conscious place right now, so that it pays to go slowly and to examine the nuances of your situation for clues to what this is all about anyway, and where you are heading.
The New Moon that comes along a week further on, taking place on Monday, November 16th, is a powerful time of further opening. This represents another opportunity to make the best out of what are perhaps difficult life circumstances right now. Home and family concerns and security needs are likely to predominate. Sudden epiphanies that arrive on your doorstep by way of helpful partners might be more the rule at this time than the exception. You are seeking to find a way home to what feels natural rather than forced or the result of others' expectations, and this is no easy or conceptually simple task.
The First Quarter Moon of Tuesday, November 24th, might represent a moment of tension in your evolutionary process, a time when partnership interaction will likely be both helpful in sorting out your priorities and a contrast to your own viewpoint that proves clarifying. All through these last two weeks of the month your self-expression is blossoming in ways that are new to you and not a little strange, to the point of being difficult to understand and to accommodate by those that know you best. You must recognize that whatever road you are on, it is your own path. This path is one that you must walk alone in many ways, in spite of the support of loved ones, and is the right path for you at this time, all appearances to the contrary notwithstanding.
Libra
(September
22 - October 22) Air. Ruling planet Venus. TopThis month that follows your birthday represents a great moment of burgeoning awareness as you take on a new persona and begin to concretely act it out in the world. As you grapple with inner patterns and take a serious look at your new mission statement, at the same time you are exploring a powerful set of revelations that stem from the very core of your being and that practically shut you down in terms of outer agenda. You must form your own unique path through the soul truth that you experiencing right now and it takes all you've got. That doesn't mean that you can't have fun with this. The saints laugh, because at bottom they and you remain eternally joyous to be alive.
As the month begins, you are riding the wave of the New Moon in your sign from the middle of last month. The powerful configurations of this period initiated a time when you are clearly more active both mentally and physically, and are also filled with idealism. You are also perhaps a bit confused as you are evolving in some very different directions from what might be on your conscious agenda. Since Saturn entered into your identity sector just before the start of the month, on October 29th, you are getting quite serious about these changes that you find yourself in the midst of.
With the Full Moon of Monday, November 2nd, you are still partaking of a less worldly agenda, now investigated it from the standpoint of self and other. Significant partners in your life will prove to be integral to your own development at this time, providing both the difficulty of merging different points of view into your own and the joy and expansion of doing so. There is a way that the opinions of others are crucial for you now, and help you to define your connection to your future self; and there is a way that you also find that you must preserve your own integrity and your own autonomy all the more aggressively because they do.
The Last Quarter Moon of Monday, November 9th, serves to exacerbate these basic considerations by highlighting the difficulties in getting along with others, and with simultaneously acknowledging your own core needs, and also the fundamental optimism that you bring to the table right now, the feeing that you can move mountains. This feeling will stand you in good stead in the weeks to come, as you get deeper into the inevitable changes that this period of time holds for you leading up to the end of the year. Like the Roman god Janis you are looking back right now as well as forward, making this second week of the month a terrific time for journaling.
With the New Moon of the following week, taking place on Monday, November 16th, you are ready to make a fresh start with the development that you are in the midst of, and with the resources that you will need to accomplish it, peripherally including financial ones. This is a confused period of time for you regarding monetary concerns, and the ultimate meaning of finances in your life. While it is true that happiness does not derive from financial stability, such form of security does make it easier to cultivate a relaxed state of mind that is so necessary for pursuing your true goals. The trick that you might be able to come to over this closing period of the month is to proceed as though the financial aspects were already covered, and see what comes out of that, remembering all the while that your true soul purpose is being revealed to you more and more.
The First Quarter Moon of Tuesday the 24th punctuates this process and definitely presents you with a few curve balls, which also turn out to be enlightening. Intuition is a powerful factor for you over this entire monthly cycle. This period of time is only difficult when you refuse to accept the fact that everything is changing for you and that you might as well go along with the program. Once you start to seriously consider the idea that the steering wheel is out of your hands you can begin to relax and simply enjoy the ride.
Scorpio
(October
23 - Nov 21) Water. Ruling planets Mars,
Pluto. TopThis is a month of great outer as well as inner work, Scorpio. You are manifesting and achieving, no doubt about it. You may also encounter a trace of tension in your process as you face challenges to your equanimity that can be decoded as a series of tests to your new persona. You are finding both joy and madness in issues that remain at your psychological root level or as revealed in home and family interactions that have come back to haunt you. You can put these to bed with a determined effort to look on the bright side and see the glass of your evolution as half full rather than letting the darker side of your imagination detract in any way from your ultimate success.
As the month begins, you are feasting on outer world excellence while still hopefully staying true to recent inner world explorations. You are currently emerging out of the depth of your unconscious process into the light of everyday events and priorities, and yet carrying with you the memory and the utility of the time spent within the darkness of your interior knowing. As you know intuitively, there is much more to your existence than superficial logic or surface events will allow for. The darkness informs the light.
The Full Moon that begins the first week of the month, on Monday, November 2nd, opens you up to further dimensions of your experience and brings outer manifestation more sharply into focus. You are also coming into new awareness regarding the interaction of important others in your life, who during this month will contribute mightily to your ongoing process. You are very active in the world at this time, and you will continue to be so for the next several months, although you might shift your priorities somewhat when your ruler Mars turns retrograde in mid-December. You are feeling like something has to give in terms of the way that you do things, and yet have also the basic confidence to assume that it is all just part of the plan right now., at least when you are able to access it.
The Last Quarter Moon of the following Monday, the 9th, puts you in an optimistic mood, increasing your faith in your current arc of development, while providing a thoughtful reflection on what has gone before, although perhaps this happens through the agency of some degree of turmoil. Relationship with significant others in your life, including business partners, is important at this time as well, and can be quite useful in allowing you to explore other points of view as well as your own.
The New Moon that follows a week later, taking place on Monday, November 16th, provides a fresh start for increasing integration and wholeness which could however prove to be disruptive in the short term. You are at this time wrestling with issues of deep interiority from an entirely new angle, and it might take you quite a while to really get a grip. This is because as a natural consequence, the collision of your present-tense identity with your ancient inner one can be confusing, even self-deceptive at times.
The last two weeks of the month will be a time for working these issues out, punctuated by the First Quarter Moon of Tuesday the 24th. This moment of intensity has the effect of increasing your awareness of the changes that you are in the midst of right now. On the one hand you are filled with the joy of delving down into your roots and discovering there what is to be discovered, while on the other there is the mystery and the illusion created out of too much exposure to a double vision that transcends ordinary reality.
Then too, old patterns that are ready to be discarded might be coming up for your conscious attention at this time, which can also be unsettling. It is important to take everything that happens as it comes, as something to animate with your intelligence rather than to seek to control or to flee from.
Sagittarius
(Nov
22 - Dec 20) Fire. Ruling planet Jupiter. TopThis is a darkly magical month for you, Sagittarius. The last two weeks of October have been good, and have made you fortunate in your visioning capabilities for future-oriented societal connection, whether or not you have consciously acknowledged these powers. It is a new mandate for social change that you are currently experiencing. On the other hand, there is a fated quality to all that you have chosen to take on, and a seriousness to your attitude there that leads to greater wisdom surrounding your choices. This entire cycle of events will improve your understanding of the values you aspire to and the way you operate in the world in order to grant yourself a sense of security in challenging times.
As the month begins, you are riding the wave of the Libra New Moon from mid-October than took place in your sector of goals and societal involvement. Events lately have conspired to put you in the driver's seat for significant life change that connects you to soul purpose and while doing so, and enhance your communicative outreach to everyone around you.
The Full Moon of Monday, November 2nd marks the flowering of this ongoing cycle and the lead-in to the next. This is a time when you are more deeply engaged in exploring secret inner realms of dream imagination than in dwelling in the chaotic activity that characterizes the merely material plane of outer events. Just as the world that you inhabit in your sleep is restorative and generative of daytime energy and experience, so too your inner world, richer and stranger than you might suppose, informs and provides the foundation for the more obvious day-to-day waking mode. With the aid of angel powers only to be found within, you are investigating further facets of your ongoing direction. You are seeking the life path that corresponds more directly to your soul purpose and that you arrive at only with the passage of time.
The Last Quarter Moon a week later, taking place on Monday, November 9th, traditionally represents bumps in the road of your progress, and is a time when you might become more focused on what parts of the plan refuse to work themselves out rather than what succeeds. In any case you will experience an increased awareness of your situation at this time, and one that opens up into new perspectives and new ideas for the future.
The New Moon a week later represents a similar time of waiting and watching since you are still operating from behind the scenes, as it were. You are acutely aware at this time of the essential fragility of your current circumstances, in which it seems that the road is long and the destination misty and unclear. Still something compels your onward, and it might well be your inner wisdom that is calling upon you to make a grater effort to connect with it. You are mentally acute at this time, and your communication has the effect of revealing the more sensitive and hidden sides of your nature, so that you might feel within you the tendency to pull back from too close a contact.
This is a time also when you recognize and take more seriously the societal connections that seem to be the most productive for you. You are playing for keeps right now, and the feeling of responsibility that has been your watchword in recent months has taken a new turn that is more future-oriented.
With the First Quarter Moon of the 24th, you are taking these ideas to the streets and seeing what might come out of them for an actual result. This is obviously an important time, when your concept of resources and finances is nagging, and when your feeling of what it might take to get yourself in gear might seem rather insurmountable. These concepts continue to percolate over the next few weeks, into December, when you will have a better, although an even more idealized sense, of what you are attempting; others will help you along your way.
Capricorn
(Dec
21 - Jan 19) Earth. Ruling planet Saturn. TopYour times they are a'changing, Capricorn. So are everyone else's but right now you are ahead of the curve. You seek to transform all that has grown stale in your life and that no longer serves you, and the pace is accelerating. When you hold back and attempt to stay static, you make things difficult for yourself, whereas when you go with the flow of recent life developments you enhance all your possibilities. It helps to remember that the changes that are being thrust upon you are ultimately in your own best interest, and will see you through. It's only a question of whether you go painfully, or easily and gladly, into the future that is building for you.
As the month begins, you are getting out into the world of concrete manifestation in a totally new way. Business is hard work for you now, but the recognition is there for you too, and the certainty of long-term reward. Personal transformation continues into this November timeframe with perhaps a harder and a more productive edge. The pain that is associated with negotiating change always lies in direct proportion to your natural inclination for resistance. Get past that and learn to let go and you've got it licked.
With the Full Moon of Monday, November 2nd, the pace of change accelerates. You are seeing the advantages as well as the drawbacks of abandoning your entrenched position, and are making a positive attempt to move on in your life, although still negotiating the distress this brings to your intimate connections and to yourself also.
The Last Quarter Moon a week later, taking place on Monday, November 9th, represents another moment of tension in your process of growing awareness. You are fortunate at this time in the resources that you will require to make a needed breakthrough, although again not without some source of conflict with others around you. Right now you are rubbing up against the changes that your future self requires and it can be a painful time since until acceptance comes, your resistance is generally the sabotaging factor. This second week of the month is a good time for evaluating what works for you and what doesn't, and for checking out how far you have actually come almost in spite of yourself.
With the New Moon of Monday, November 16th, you are making a fresh start with plans and goals and with the societal connections that will take you to the next level. You are surrounded by grace at this time, and there is a sense of the miraculous that follows you through your day. You are in a positive and even idealized space with regard to ways and means that might even be a little confusing, considering the potential hardships. Information that comes to you quite suddenly from the depths of your intuition can be trusted as long as you can feel it concretely somewhere in your body. The concept will serve you well right now that there is wisdom beyond knowledge. In the final two weeks of the month you will be following up on and acting out the considerations of the first two.
Especially in the week of the New Moon your thoughts are vitalized and lead you to amazing consequences. Be careful what you wish for at this time for your wishes are very likely to come true. In spite of all the mental constructs that you can bring to bear that seem to negate this basic truth, it is essentially blind faith that leads you though all the potential missteps, a belief in the fundamental beneficence of the cosmos that surrounds you and that pervades your actions.
Aquarius
(Jan
20 - Feb 18) Air. Ruling planets Uranus,
Saturn. TopThis is a powerful time for you, Aquarius. A rapidly changing worldview has created opportunities that were previously dim or nonexistent, giving you much food for thought as you ascend the mountain of your destiny. Your transformation takes hold of you from the inside out. This is also a time when you are shucking off pieces of the story you tell yourself that no longer fit, and transcending old patterns that no longer serve you, and it can be confusing and painful as you do. Encapsulated within what you are going through are the seeds of celebration, that comes when you simply accept it that your life is no longer the same, and you are lighter and move more easily because of it.
As the month begins, you are riding the wave of the New Moon of mid-October and the alterations in perspective and in awareness that accompanied it. These are big times for you and even more so as you edge into November. Interior shifts in perspective are heralds for outer world results over these final weeks of this climactic year.
With the Full Moon of Monday, November 2nd, you are seeking a balance point between public and private initiatives as well as between self and other, and taking it to the streets with your head and your heart. Creative tensions could arise with active partners in your life, and these spark your interest in business activities of all kinds and in personal exploration. You are feeling the joy of the encounter with hidden parts of your being that may not always be given their due as part and parcel of your waking life. You are firmly embarked at this time on a voyage of discovery that will not cease until you recognize the potency of your inner world.
Over these few months leading up to your birthday you will come into more comfortable alignment with these relatively unconscious factors of your being, moving through the uncertainty that they represent and the pain of doubt that you might find when you pierce the veil of secrecy that surrounds them. Although what exact form this will take remains to be seen, it is a truism that there are more things to be discovered in the direction that lies within than we can easily imagine using mere logic and mental constructs.
At the time of the Last Quarter Moon of Monday, November 9th, you may find a degree of tension in your process that strongly effects close relationships, and that presents you with the evidence of the senses that you will need to continue your journey with confidence and courage. There is an optimistic flair to your interactions with others at this time that takes you far, and that if anything might need to be tempered with a dose of caution. You are fully engaged at this time also in a process of reflection on where this current arc of development is ultimately taking you, and how far you might be able to go in the direction of greater understanding. With the New Moon of the following week, taking place on Monday, November 16th, you are coming to a new sense of purpose and of outer world capability that perhaps is a consequence of your inner migration. You are also at this time in a totally confused and confusing place of partial acceptance of the insufficiency of the cause-and-effect world of events to predict outcomes for you.
The final two weeks of the month will constitute a working out of these ideas that are swirling around in your mind these days, punctuated by the First Quarter Moon of Tuesday, November 24th, when the pressure to break through into a new worldview might be particularly intense. The acceptance of paradox as a natural and fundamental component of your universe is antithetical to 20th century conditioning and your own scientific bent but is vital to your continued success as a human being.
Pisces
(Feb
19 - March 19) Water. Ruling planets Neptune, Jupiter. TopThis is an extremely active time for you, Pisces, but not obviously so. There is a lot happening and it is all behind the scenes. Destabilizing revelations are still as plentiful as they have been in recent weeks, maybe even more so, but you are less than reactive on the surface. Your ship of state keeps sailing on, although you might be in a ferment below decks. You are perceiving things more clearly now, and exploring your options with a different perspective. This as you prepare to make an important move toward what you can see as your emerging life path. The time for action is not yet but it is coming soon, before the end of the year, and when it does it will be dramatic.
As the month begins, you are still feeling the energy of the New Moon from the middle of last month that stimulated your sector of intimacy and personal transformation. You are on a roll at this time in your life, no two ways about it. You are also likely to be feeling the somewhat blocked and stifling force of Saturn in this same sector, granting you both a separation from others around you and a sense of seriousness for your own inner process.
The Full Moon of Monday, November 2nd, represents the fullness of the balance that must be reached between your perspective and another's before there can be a true mutuality of ideas. You are putting your money where your mouth is these days, going for the communication and the sensibility that will express, not even in words, the goal that you are trying for and the culmination that you are actively seeking. Where your head and your heart join forces, they assist in finding the vocation that is truly coherent with your deepest values and your higher-mind understanding. This month initiates a weeks-long investigation into just that conundrum.
The Last Quarter Moon of Monday, November 9th, represents kinks in the road of progress and also a concentration of your conscious energy on long-term goals. This is also a time when you will find that day-to-day considerations take you further into your process of discovery than you would have ever imagined. There is some special amalgam of spiritual necessity and the events of ordinary life that conspire to make a new way of thinking possible.
With the New Moon of Monday, November 16th, you are ready to launch yourself into new ways of seeing, and as a consequence of being, in the world. This is a potential conflict for you with everything that has gone before, a complete departure, and yet also somehow a quite necessary consequence of your prior history. The ability to hold mutually contradictory ideas in your head at the same time is a sign of maturity.
Over the last two weeks of the month, and especially when the First Quarter Moon of Tuesday, November 24th, hits in your identity sector you are applying the lessons learned. This is another moment of potential conflict between public and private, and between what you feel and what you think, as you attempt to sort your priorities according to what makes you feel like you are doing what you came into this lifetime to accomplish. You are mustering the resources and the higher mind commitment to complete your task as you now see it, and like the classical sculptor removing any part of the stone that is not your masterpiece.

Overview
of the Planets this month: Top
The
Astrology of November features all the outer planets: Saturn, Uranus,
Neptune and Pluto. Just before the month began, Saturn entered Libra
and squared Pluto, an important aspect that becomes exact by mid-November.
This powerful combination of archetypal energies is made even more
so because Pluto currently resides in Saturn's sign of Capricorn. The
structure of our lives that we have come to depend on might take a
sudden turning.
Both Uranus and Neptune are also featured prominently in this month's
configurations. Like Pluto, these powerful numinous archetypal energies
symbolize forces for change, although less sweepingly drastic in their
effects than their astrological cousin. Uranus represents the flash
of inspiration that can apprehend in an instant all that we are about,
the human condition raised to a level of cosmic understanding. Uranus
is prominent in these November skies because it is almost stationary
during this month, about to turn to direct motion, and also because
it is aspected by both the Full Moon and Venus at the very beginning
of the month and the New Moon of November 16th. Neptune is also stationing
direct this month, on November 4th. The New Moon of the 16th aspects
Neptune strongly, by square, just as Jupiter closes in on a repeat
of the triple conjunction with Neptune and Chiron that was active during
last spring and early summer.
Since Uranus and Neptune occupy the same degree of different signs
right now, they are linked; any configuration, like this Scorpio New
Moon, that aspects Uranus also aspects Neptune. Since they remain in
mutual reception – each one in the sign ruled by the other – there
is a strong dose of compassionate understanding in the air, which is
a much-needed plus; a potentially optimistic way of seeing past the
enormous burden of change that is already upon us. We are fortunate
to have compassion and sensitivity for each other and the intelligence
to deal positively with the changes and the challenges that are upon
us as part and parcel of these climactic times we are currently living
through.
The square between Saturn and Pluto is huge, and represents the first
combination of these powerful planetary energies since the fall of
2001. This configuration becomes even more compelling due to the nature
of the degrees involved, since the initial degrees of Capricorn, and
of Libra, are equivalent to the Aries point, which is related to the
beginning degree of all four Cardinal signs. The Sabian Symbol for
the first degree of Libra, opposite the Aries point, where Saturn begins
its November journey, is "a butterfly made perfect by a dart through
it." This symbol speaks to the sleight of hand of human perception
which transforms the raw stuff of nature into art. As Saturn transits
Libra in square to Pluto, the very structures of our lives that we
depend upon for sustenance are subject to the storm of destruction
represented by Pluto, a storm that can be in the end constructive also.
We have room to grow as individuals only by eliminating previous foundations
and removing the dead weight of the past that would otherwise hold
us back. It is a brave new world that we are entering in this end-of-the-year
period, redolent with the reasonable fear of the unknown, and yet holding
much promise as well, as we begin to get with the program and allow
ourselves to let go of what we can no longer hold on to.
Current Moon Configurations
November 2nd Full Moon
This is a thoughtful Taurus Full Moon with Mercury close by the Sun. Saturn is
closely square Pluto at this time, which is powerful. The structure of your life
as you have come to depend on it might be changing even more radically than before.
The Full Moon also makes a T-square to Mars, meaning that sudden action might
also be emphasized. It is a good time to remember to breathe, and to "count
to ten" before reacting.
November 9th Last Quarter Moon
This is traditionally the time when we look back over the events of the previous
three weeks and attempt to understand their impact, and what lessons we can draw
from them. The Moon is opposite Jupiter which makes for an optimistic assessment.
On the other hand, Saturn and Pluto are drawing nearer to a perfect square, indicating
what is perhaps quite a difficult passage. This is also a time when mental activity
is very much in the forefront of our awareness, since Mercury remains within
a few degrees of the Sun and in square to the Moon. It's a time when we are tempted
to use logic to solve problems that are inappropriate to merely mental solutions,
so that it is good to be aware of the value of intuition, which is also powerfully
present right now.
November 16th New Moon
The Scorpio New Moon represents an important turning point when emotive magic
is being invoked, since Neptune, and also Uranus, are powerfully configured.
This Scorpio New Moon squares Neptune, just as Jupiter begins to conjoin it in
a triple conjunction that perfects a month later in mid-December. Neptune in
Aquarius is confused and not fully at home there, but it succeeds wonderfully
in taking us out of our everyday affairs and tuning us into the numinous possibility.
Uranus meanwhile is standing by in trine formation with this New Moon and symbolizes
intuition that comes from deep inside and the sudden knowing that overcomes us
as it changes everything in an instant.
November 24th First Quarter Moon
The Sun, newly entered into Sagittarius, and the Moon in Pisces conspire to make
a few waves that lead us into increased awareness of our total situation. We
are drawn to an understanding during this period of where we are at with outer
world activity and inner world intuitive grasp. We are also engaged in seeing
more clearly how important partners in our lives represent both a help and a
hindrance in moving us along our chosen path. As Venus enters its brief trine
with Uranus over these few days, relationship issues could come up rather suddenly.
Everything that we have going for us now contributes to the sense we have been
feeling lately that the times are changing, and irrevocably, and for good reason,
as we prepare to abandon those parts of our individual lives – and also
of our dysfunctional society – that just aren't working for us anymore.
