Weekly Forecast ~ Week of November 5th
We start the week off with lots of energy in water and earth and as the week progresses we have Mercury moving into a fire sign and Venus moving into air which changes the overall vibe. For people new to astrology it’s an interesting practice to observe the elements that are being activated at any given time. You can learn a lot about yourself through this process. I am mostly fire and air and when there is a lot of water energy sometimes I feel like I am floundering or just treading water. But when we have a lot of air energy it’s like I have a buzz from all that energy. Pay attention for yourself and let me know how you feel under different elemental influences. Monday November 5th ~ What’s going on today: Moon in Libra The Libra moon is a good time to focus on balance and harmony. You ideally want the different parts of your life to compliment each other. Your work supports your relationships. You relationships support your self-care. Your self-care supports your health. On and on. It’s good to take action with these things in mind today. The small things you do can create a sense of harmony in your larger life. Tuesday November 6th ~ What’s going on today: Moon in Libra void-of-course at 2:19 AM CST Moon enters Scorpio at 7:02 AM CST Sun Trine Neptune Uranus Rx enters Aries What it means: When the sun and Neptune work together we feel like we can make our dreams come true. We feel supported by spirit. We feel in touch with our intuition. It’s true there can be a little fantastical energy here, the stuff made of dreams and nostalgia and imagination. But those are good things and we want that type of inspiration to filter down into our reality. So shine the light on your spirit, your hopes and dreams, and let them come into your awareness. The second thing we have going on today is Uranus moving in retrograde motion back into the sign of Aries. We are going to feel a little upheaval with this one! Aries is the original rebel. Aries can be rash and is always independent. When we put Uranus into this sign we get a electric shock to the system. Revolution is likely. Here in the states we have midterm elections. Expect them to be more hotly contested with better turnout than in years. Also expect them to overthrow some of the status quo. In your personal life think about how you can host your own personal rebellion. What isn’t working and what do you want to just get rid of? Take action and trust that you can build a better system. Questions to ask: How can I add more magic to my everyday life? How can I overthrow that which is currently oppressing me? How can I embrace more independence? How do I bravely challenge the status quo in my own life? Wednesday November 7th ~ What’s going on today: New Moon in Scorpio What it means: A new moon it when both the sun and the moon at at the same degree of the same sign in the zodiac. Today they are both in Scorpio. I absolutely love new moons because each month the universe gifts us an influx of positive energy which we can harness for personal growth. If you look at your chart and see which house and which planets are being affected you can get a really wonderful idea of where you can set the best goals for the current new moon. That said I find that most people are already resonating with the energy so naturally are setting goals that the new moon will support. For example if the new moon falls into your first house you may set goals involving health and fitness and your appearance. One of the interesting things about the sign of Scorpio is that it does tend to reveal secrets so if there is something that has been holding you back from achieving a personal goal you may find out what is going on beneath the surface. We might not always want to see the hidden issues but once we do see them we can finally address them. The Sabian Symbol for this new moon is “A Girl’s Face Breaking Into A Smile”. This makes me think of the inner child within us all, and connecting to a source of joy in the eyes of that child. By setting intentions around the idea to engage in behavior and beliefs that make your own inner child smile you can make magic this new moon. Questions to ask: Where in my life do I feel the need to plant seeds for new growth? What goal can I set to represent the growth I feel in need of at this time? What has been blocking me from achieving my goals up until now? As I peel back the layers that have complicated my own personal growth how I can simplify things so these obstacles are no longer an issue? How can I bring joy to the inner child within me? Thursday November 8th ~ What’s going on today: Moon in Scorpio void-of-course at 4:42 AM CST Moon enters Sagittarius at 12:59 PM CST Jupiter enters Sagittarius What it means: Hip hip hooray! Jupiter enters Sagittarius today! Sagittarius is the home sign of Jupiter so we have a strong Jupiter at home doing what he loves best! It takes about a year for Jupiter to move through a sign and this time around Jupiter remains in Sagittarius until December 2, 2019. Jupiter in Sagittarius gives us an innate sense of optimism that we all need to believe that there is in fact meaning to life. This placement also encourages us to develop our own sense of the meaning of life and also to further improve ourselves as people. Jupiter is called the “greater benefic” because it is historically thought to bestow great gifts onto those who it touches. I am reminded of a quote by Immanuel Kant: “Beneficence is a duty”. By this he means that we should be good to each other. We should practice kindness. We should help raise each other up by our association with each other. This is how Jupiter works and this is how we can all work, too, through a practice of loving kindness and of benevolence toward all who we encounter. There are other attributes of Jupiter in Sagittarius: a sense of justice, a love of travel, an appreciation for foreign people and things. Sagittarius is an adventurer and by traveling far and wide recognizes that in our heart people are all the same. We might live differently or believe differently but we all cry when we are sad and laugh with joy when we are happy. We all need to give and receive love. Questions to ask: How can I bring kindness and hope to the world today? How can I improve everything I touch? What is my personal philosophy? What is the meaning of life? How do I engage with meaning in my daily life? Friday November 9th ~ Moon in Sagittarius Venus Trine Mars What it means: When Venus and Mars get together I always think of sensuality. This can be in a sexual manner but it doesn’t have to be. It’s the exploration of the senses through being immersed in activities that stimulate our sense of sight, touch, hearing, taste and smell. So if you have a partner with whom you can explore your senses physically then great, go for it, but if you there are millions of other ways to engage your senses. Try finger painting, or sculpting with clay, or shopping for fresh veggies then preparing and eating a beautiful meal. We are sensual people and today is they type of day to indulge in sensual pleasures. The other thing going on here is the harmony between our feminine and masculine energy, the eternal yin and yang. Questions to ask: How can I engage all of my senses today? How can I engage both my yin and yang aspects? Saturday November 10th ~ What’s going on today: Moon in Sagittarius void-of-course at 9:35 PM CST Moon enters Capricorn at 9:55 PM CST With the zodiac each sign is like an over reaction to the previous sign. We spend most of the day with the moon in optimistic and cavalier Sagittarius. It’s a fun party vibe that keeps a bounce in your step. Later in the evening the moon moves into Capricorn which is considered to be serious and work-oriented. Capricorn works first and then, if there is time, might play. Sagittarius plays and doesn’t think much of work at all. Remember this is a caricature but you will be able to see this in your friends and family with strong Sag or Cap placements, and you will be able to feel it under the lunar influence. Sunday November 11th ~ What’s going on today: Moon in Capricorn Sun Sextile Pluto What it means: With the sun and Pluto in sextile aspect we are able to look at our shadow side with a little more courage than usual. We are more able to accept our faults and we are able to see beneath the surface in a way that strengthens us. We all have a dark side and learning how to be comfortable with that side of ourselves allows us to be healthier and more well-rounded people in general. Questions to ask: Are there things about myself that I have been afraid to see? Are there secrets that I hold that can become a source of power instead of a source of weakness?
