READ PART ONE

November 4   Mars ingresses into Sagitarius and opposes Uranus retrograde in Gemini 

Mars in Sagittarius can give us the charge to overcome the shadows that were brought up in its trip through Scorpio.  Take to your spiritual practice. This Mars can bring the spiritual guidance you seek, especially with Neptune and Saturn in Pisces, and reignite what is meaningful to you.  Don’t get caught in ideological wars with people. Fight energy only pushes and gets pushed back upon.  It does not open hearts or ears. Keep an open mind.  See the fellow human behind their ideology.  Mars in Sag also needs to be heard. Ask them questions and see if questions are asked in return.  If not, let it go.  Pluto in Aquarius can bring power back to the people if we are willing to embrace each other.  This Pluto is also calling us to evaluate our relationships and let go of those that aren’t in our best interest, and helping us find the place where we can be ourselves without giving ourselves up to fit in.   

Uranus in Gemini opposes Mars before retrograding back into Taurus.  Take the time to review facts and ideas that have come to you since July.  These can be breakthroughs that can help lift us up and positively move forward 

 

November 5   Full Moon in Taurus at 13 degrees 

The Full Moon in Taurus on the 5th can ground us back into our bodies and back into our values. It’s okay to want for more when we are grateful for what we have.  What do we value?  Do our wants align with our values?  Remember your own resources, your talents, abilities, and wisdom.  Feel the comfort that you are well-resourced and that you have value. Let that sink into your body.  Use this full Moon to acknowledge the full beauty of all that you are. 

On the other side of the Moon, the Sun in Scorpio is calling us to release limitations and clear blocks.  Open to this change and use your logic to recognize patterns.  Saturn asks if what we are doing is working, and Neptune lets us know that we are Divinely supported.  Saturn in Pisces is the manifestation of our dreams.  We must be willing to see what’s real and true through the Neptune fog.   

When Venus moves into Scorpio on November 6, you can feel a lack of self-worth or feel what is lacking in relationships or finances.  Remember your value and all your resources when Uranus goes back into Taurus on November 8.   

Mercury turns retrograde in Sagittarius on November 9th.  You will be feeling this strongly all week as it has been slowing down to station at this retrograde point.   Again, remember all that you have realized about yourself and your worth at the full Moon, and do not fall into the escapism that all the Pisces energy can lure you into.  Remember what you are creating.  This retrograde is going to bring up deep truths about what needs to be changed in your life, as well as secrets and lies.  Bring to mind anything that has come to your awareness since Mercury entered its retrograde shadow on October 21st.   Be sober and open to and willing to see truth.  You can use this to manifest positive change or to create chaos.  Use Mercury’s energy to stay focused. 

Jupiter turns retrograde in Cancer on the 11th.  This can pull us into negative emotions. 

Mercury meets Mars on Wednesday, the 12th.  These can be arguments, angry words that cut or injure, accidents, or travel delays.  Be aware of the damage your words can cause. This may bring up something that happened on October 20 when Mercury and Mars first met in this cycle.  Stay calm.  Don’t be reactionary.  Be aware of your surroundings and be aware when driving.  You can expect to see these themes in the world and on the news. 

On November 17th, the Sun, Jupiter, and Saturn create a grand trine in water.  Trines are not always easy.  The energy is flowing, and how you are using the energy will create what’s flowing.  Are you aware of your values, self-worth, and what you are creating?  Or are you getting swept away in emotions and repetitive patterns?  Don’t get lost in the shadows.  Use the light of that Taurus Moon to light your path and stay grounded. 

Mercury re-enters Scorpio on the 19th and opposes Uranus retrograde in Taurus.  Again, this brings up all the Scorpio themes we have discussed here and in the previous overview.  The soul’s call to shadow work, to change repetitive patterns, and to release what keeps us stuck. This transit can bring up a lot of anxiety and overthinking. Review the suggestions for modalities in the overview and remember your resources and value.  Remember your vision and stay focused. 

This brings us to the New Moon in Scorpio on the 20th and the Sun conjunct Mercury during this new moon.  We will go into this and look at the rest of this intense month in the next update.  Stay sober and focused, do your spiritual work, and reach out to our local practitioners to assist you on this journey. 

May the Taurus Full Moon bless us with the remembrance of our divine beauty and eternal value.
