Astrology This Week

Our week starts off with Venus conjunct Jupiter in Scorpio early in the morning on the 13th.   Once a year Venus gets right on Jupiter so it is not unusual for a conjunction but of course Jupiter has just moved into Scorpio since its last transit 12 years ago.   So, we are getting our Scorpio on—big time.  

We’ve been building towards this transit all month.  Jupiter expands whatever it touches and Venus speaks to our values.  During the weekend did you find your softness up?  Did you feel your tender up?   Connecting on an intuitive deep level is part of our journey during Jupiter in Scorpio and when touched by Venus we get the gift of processing through our heart.  Versus the brain.   What do we feel in our heart?  What is it telling us on a deep level?   Remember we will have Jupiter in Scorpio for a year.   Scorpio favors black and white versus grey meaning it is looking for a line and picking which side it stands.   What came up this weekend where you found yourself saying that is beautiful or that is wrong?  What was your heart telling you?  Did you find something speak to you and you knew you needed to move on it?   It could have been subtle.   Whatever it was the process you did to ‘get’ it, on an intuitive level is something you can call upon for the next ten month while Jupiter continues its journey.

We are still in the last quarter Libra moon.   Actions based on truth and bravery.   

On the 14^th we move into Balsamic moon where we release our washy washiness and non-committal.  New Moon in Scorpio launches on November 18.   (Separate post to come)

Last Quarter moon:  Now we do the final adjustments to the seeds we planted on new. The final call, the final letters to send, we follow all the trails that came up that still make sense.  And we let the other parts lay fallow. It is a time of action but wise action.  It is a time for living  “The serenity prayer”

God, grant me the Serenity
to accept the things
I cannot change Courage to change the
things I can, and the
Wisdom to know the difference.

Focus on:

What actions are you taking that stoke your pride? What actions are you taking that speak to your heart?  What actions are you taking that are dramatic?  How are you learning the power of theater?   What’s going on with your ego?

Special focus:

Special focus:

11/13: Venus conjunct Jupiter:  Love & Money expands.   Bridging to money and loving. 

11/13: Mercury/Neptune:  Tricky conversation that might not be accurate.   Stupid bragging rubs people wrong.  

Balsamic Moon Phase

November 14, 2017

8:11am EST

Balsamic:   We let go.  By releasing we can prepare for the new. 

Focus on  How are we releasing  our wishy washy?  How are we releasing our co-dependency?  How are we releasing our lazy?  How are we releasing the celebration of the partner at the loss of ourselves?

Apologies for getting up this report a day late.  Lot of juggling over here.   Last lifetime I clearly was a clown.   

We are in the Disseminating Phase of the Libra lunar cycle.   How are we learning about balance through our family?  How are we finding our balance through our emotions?  How are we negotiating through family and harnessed emotions?

11/07:  Venus enters Scorpio putting the accent on things that are deeper and below the surface. On one hand we might feel like someone pushed “basement” on our elevator and all these things come up or maybe it is something we suspected or wondered about are now clear.    With Scorpio it is black and white.    Gray is not easily accessible. 

On the 10^th we move the last quarter of Libra  cycle putting actions that speak from our heart.   

All week we slowly build towards Saturn trine Uranus.    Creativity and hard work go hand in hand.  Breaking out builds new structures.   Bold visions are well received.    

Disseminating

Nov 7 2017 

6:06am EST  

Focus on:  How are you sharing your emotions? How are you sharing your family focus?  How are you sharing your protectiveness?  How are you sharing the power of a hard shell?  How are you snapping?   How are you cozy?

Taurus Full Moon! Yay!

Taurus Full Moon

11 Taurus 58

November 3 (PDT)  10:22pm

What a lovely Full Moon.  How often are those words said?   In the last couple years--- not much.    But this Taurus Full Moon has gentle aspects with Neptune; a trine with the Sun and a sextile with the Moon.    Nice.

During this full moon, harnessing the power of faith may be easier than usual.  Trusting a process could be easier.  Accessing intuition could be easier.    Why is Neptune lining up with the Sun and Moon giving us such a nice boost?   Perhaps the Universe, in all its wisdom, is helping us work and utilize the energy of Scorpio with the help of Taurus and to take both to full advantage.   Every sign has its opposite and the full moon is when the moon is opposite the Sun.   Imagine a teeter- totter in order to find balance you need to find that space in between the two signs.  With Scorpio the question is what are you willing to give up?  What are willing to let die?  What are willing to release?  How are you accessing your power by letting something end?    With Taurus who NEVER likes to give up anything and hates even the concept of death we need to ask:  What must die so we can just be practical?  What needs to die so that we can build something new?

And there is a little kicker with this Taurus full moon, just before the full moon, the planet Venus, who rules Taurus gets into its own teeter totter with crazy Uranus.   Don’t be surprised if someone says something or you see something or you experience something that speaks to conflicted values.   And you find yourself saying, “WTF?!” You may be very tempted to get into it.   This is where the power of this particular Taurus Full Moon could be of help.  Before you get into it ask, what is the practical solution?  What can I just let die and move on?  What misplaced value am I putting on this situation?  Is there a chance I have outgrown something?     Taurus can be stubborn but really it more that they are stuck.   Their love of routines and habits can get in their way.  They may have outgrown something but are completely unaware of it.   This is why values out of sync can be helpful.  It calls attention to where you really are these days.      What needs to end so that our values are in sync?   And with Taurus and Venus we should ask, what needs to die so we can improve our love and improve our resources?  

Don’t let your own stubbornness get in your own way.   It’s not practical and you may be cutting yourself out of a new resource of supplies whether it is emotional, financial or spiritual.  

Happy Full Moon.

Onward.
