This Week in Astrology

This week in Astrology

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?  

Last Quarter Moon Phase

November 10

3:36pm EST

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:

11/11 Saturn trine Uranus: Discipline begets breakthroughs  novelty meets hard work.  Enthusiasm and New Beginnings.

Taurus Full Moon! Yay!

Taurus Full Moon

11 Taurus 58 

November 4 (EDT)  1:22am

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.

Astrology This Week

This Week in Astrology
October 30 - November 3

This week on  ( October 31)we move into Gibbous Phase of the Libra Lunar cycle.     Faith & Spirituality are up. 

On November 3 the Sun lines up for a trine with Neptune sending good vibes on transformation and back to faith again. 

Values that look screwed up will capture our attention as Venus opposes Uranus builds to an opposition on Friday.    Money and love get twisted up.   Rebels will be up our grill.   

On Saturday we move into Taurus Full Moon.  Separate post to follow. 

Gibbous Moon

October 31, 2017

3:16pm EDT

Focus on:

How are you refining you faith?  How are you refining your inner mysticism?  How are you refining your ‘victimness’?   How are you refining your creative muses?

Special Focus:

11/3: Sun trine Neptune.  Mysticism wakes up.  Faith is coaxed out.  Spirituality inspired. 

11/3: Venus oppose Uranus:  Love is unique.  Creativity and money and values are shaken up.   Rebel learns the value of softness.  

This Week....

This weekend we are still in Libra New Moon.  Are there any actions you need to do that will speak to improving relationships?  That speak to being fair?  What actions can you take that bring more balance in your life?  What area is totally out of whack? 
How can you do one small thing that puts it to the road of balance?    In The USA we have all day Saturday and most of Sunday until 3pm (EDT) to generate action that bring us stronger partnerships and balance. 

 On the 22^nd the Sun moves into Scorpio and on the 23^rd we move into Crescent phase. On the 26^th the Sun conjuncts Jupiter.   Watch and see what gets big and important as we approach the 26^th.    Watch if there is a power play or power shift.   As the week progresses Venus grows into a square with Pluto putting pressures on love and money and values.   Are they in sync?  How is the power of love at play?  And how is love of power at play.   

An interesting week. 

This focus:  Where do you need balance?  Where do you need to commit?  What are partners sharing with you?  Where do you need more of the partnership experience?  How can you commit and negotiate some solutions that will bring you more balance? 

Special focus

10/22: Mars enters Libra

10/22: Sun enters Scorpio

Crescent Moon Phase

October 23, 2017

 3:00pm EDT

Focus on: What are you learning about other cultures?  What are you learning about righteousness?  What are you learning about being a “bridge”?  What are you learning about education?   What are you learning about your philosophies?  

Special focus:

10/24:  Mercury trine Neptune:  High Intuition, inspired thoughts, delightful conversations also a bit fuzzy. 

10/26:  Sun conjunct Jupiter:    Opinions extreme.  Power trips.  Harsh black and white.   No grey. 

First Quarter Moon

October 27, 2017  

6:22pm EDT

First quarter: We do more actions based on the information that we just received.  Or we feel our instincts guide us on something.  We pursue again.  We make another call or we see someone. We mail something.  We stir the pot again.  This can be a time when we realize that the goals we planted on New need more action from us, perhaps actions that involve breaking away.   Are there people who say they have our best interest in heart but fear us growing away from them?  Maybe we need to get help from others not the usual suspects.  Some independence may need to be exerted.

Focus on:  What actions are you taking that speak to groups?  What actions are you taking that join you with your tribe?  Where is your tribe and how are you actively engaging them?   Where are you like minded peeps?  How are you connecting up with them?

Special focus

10/27: Venus square Pluto:  Money and Love wound up tight.  What needs to be transformed?  Both?  Shallow versus committed.  Light versus hard work.
