Energetic Overview ​

 

 Happy November!

Mars continues through its retrograde shadow this month. Mars leaves its sign of Fall in Cancer, where it struggles and tends to get stuck or restricted. Mars enters Leo, where he has Triplicity power; as Mars rules, Leo's brother sign, Aries. We will need to keep our egos in check! Mars is the God of War, ruling over bravery, courage, anger, aggression, action, drive, initiative, desire, passion, energy, and impulsiveness. The Sun rules Leo. The Sun is our character, ego, vitality, sense of purpose, well-being, individual will, personal power, creativity, pride, self-image, authority, males, and father figures. Having Mars in the shadow, in the sign of the Sun, can slow down our ambitions, vitality, and energy reserves and can cause us to feel lost and confused. This is a great time for turning inward and reflecting. The shadow side of this energy is boasting bullying, letting our ego burn out of control, and being overconfident.

​

From now to June, we are dealing with Mars in Cancer & Leo!

​

The first few days of the month are action-packed. We begin the month with a powerful Scorpio New Moon closing out Eclipse Season. We have the 2nd of 3 Jupiter Chiron sextiles, which bring in a powerful ability to heal and regenerate. Mercury wraps up its time in Scorpio with a trine to Mars, then sextile Pluto, before entering Sagittarius, where Mercury will retrograde later this month. We also have the 1st of 3 Mars-Pluto oppositions; this is an interesting one because the 1st one is from Cancer to Capricorn, which is the last Mars in Cancer to oppose Pluto in Capricorn for our lifetimes! We have been working through this opposition every two years since 2008; this is the final confrontation, so it's even more intense. In addition to the intensity is the US presidential election just days later! Venus activates the Jupiter Chiron sextile with an opposition to Jupiter, then sextile to Chiron, bringing healing to relationships/partnerships. Mars enters Leo early in the month, bringing about a much-anticipated energy shift from 9/4 when Mars entered its sign of Fall. Mars is happy in Leo but in shadow, so beware of being overconfident! This is all in the first three days of the month!

The intense action cools down as we get into the month; the Sun trines Saturn on the 4th, Mercury enters its retrograde shadow on the 7th, and Venus squares Neptune on the 9th. Venus enters Capricorn on the 11th, bringing a more serious tone to the Goddess of Love and Beauty. She's focusing on party planning and end-of-year goals. Mercury squares Saturn on the 7th, bringing us a reality check. This is a spiritual checkpoint. Saturn Stations Direct on the 15th. This is a significant energetic shift. Saturn will be working its way through the end of Pisces and into Aries in the Spring! We also have a powerful Taurus Full Moon on the same day as the Saturn Station! The following day, the Sun opposes Uranus, making the Full Moon energy even more intense and volatile; huge shifts and breakthroughs are happening mid-month! On the 18th, we have yet another big day: Mercury opposes Jupiter, the Sun trines Jupiter, and it's the final day of Pluto in Capricorn for the rest of our lives! Pluto enters Aquarius and stays for the next 20 years on the 19th! We are officially in the age of Air! The future awaits! Make it great. On the same day as Pluto ingresses into Aquarius, Mercury trines Chiron, bringing in some healing energies and inspiration. We begin Sagittarius Season on the 21st! Happy Sadge Season! It's party time! Enjoy this beautiful time of year, and spend time with friends, family, and loved ones! The Sun will sextile Pluto, having a welcome party for Pluto in Aquarius and the Sun in Sagittarius; this energy is inspirational and fun! Venus sextiles Saturn on the 22nd. Mercury Stations Retrograde on the 25th; this can cause some travel delays for the Thanksgiving Holiday! It's time to slow down and enjoy social events. We end the month with the Sun trine Mars on the 27th, then Venus square Chiron, triggering some hurt feelings and potential drama.

​This Week:

​

Happy Thanksgiving week! 

We have a big week ahead for several reasons! We begin the week with Mercury Stationing Retrograde in Sagittarius, Mercury's sign of Detriment. This is a severe retrograde, so please be careful and cautious! Mercury and Jupiter are in each other's signs, and neither of them like being there! Now, they are both retrograde opposing each other, so accidents, squabbles, gossip, and confusion are more likely! We are being asked to slow down and rethink events and thoughts we have had over the past 3 months! This week can be filled with miscommunications and blurting things out, so Thanksgiving should be fun! On Wednesday, the Sun trines Mars. This is a significant aspect because Mars is Stationing(stopping) and preparing to Station Retrograde on 12/6(next week!) We receive important information; pay attention to what you hear, be aware of your words, spend more time in meditation, and SLOW DOWN! Venus squares Chiron on Wednesday evening; this is a tense aspect. Relationships and finances are strained during this time. It is a great time for some heart healing or physical activity to move frustrations through our bodies. On Thursday, we celebrate Thanksgiving! We also enter the Dark Moon phase today, which can be a time of undoing, so pace yourself this year! It's a quiet day; the Moon is in Scorpio all day. We are feeling more contemplative and reflective. If arguments break out, they can turn vicious and cruel quickly; pick your battles! 

We celebrate a beautiful Sagittarius New Moon on Sunday, 12/1! This is a manifesting and planning New Moon! Set goals for the year ahead, remembering that the beginning of the year has a slow start. We have lots of retrograde energies until June! Making long-term plans is supported now. Know that those plans will change and develop over time as we grow and change. It's a Mutable New Moon, and Mutable signs are fantastic at going with the flow! Sagittarius is a Fire sign, so reignite your passion, light candles, enjoy bonfires, and string up holiday lights. This is a celebratory time of year; reflect on what you are grateful for!

​

​​Today:

​

Here we go! Mercury Stations Retrograde tonight! We are feeling Mercury's full stop today! This retrograde is sure to be a doozy! We have Mercury in its sign of Detriment, opposing Jupiter in its sign of Detriment. They do have Mutual Reception, meaning that the energies exchange, so they function better, but they are still both in signs they don't particularly like! Jupiter and Mercury were not friends in Greek mythology; they are like warring siblings trying to one-up each other. This retrograde is likely to be a sh!t show!

We can expect blurting out secrets, hurtful truths, and gossip galore! Mind your words and thoughts! This is oversharing vibes, BIG TIME! We could experience delays in travel, accidents on the road, and technology issues. Mercury Retrogrades want us to slow down, rethink, review, revise, and revisit thoughts and ideas that we've been mulling over. We also have the final week of Mars being Stationed! Mars has also stopped in the sky and will be stationed retrograde on 12/6(next weekend!). This is NOT a time to push ahead with big changes or make impulsive decisions! The planets of movement and action are both slowing down, stopping, and reviewing old territory, so we are encouraged to do the same! Having both Mars and Mercury stopped and turning retrograde increases the risk of accidents that can be deadly. Pay attention to your surroundings, avoid road rage, de-escalate tense situations, put your phone away while driving, DO NOT SPEED OR DRINK AND DRIVE! This energy stays with us into the New Year. 

The Moon entered Libra early this morning. The Moon is feeling good in Libra today and makes supportive aspects. The Moon will meet the South Node this morning, asking us to let go of some emotional/relationship baggage. The Moon is Waning, decreasing in light. This is a good time for rebalancing our emotional scales, unplugging from draining situations and relationships and clearing our homes energetically. The Libra Moon wants things to be beautiful and visually pleasing. 

​

Moon in Virgo opposes Neptune Rx in Pisces at 1:35 am; this is a fantastic aspect for sleep and rest. Make sure that your alarms are set before going to bed! This aspect can also signify psychic attacks, so be sure to protect yourself and your home with practical safety measures as well as prayer and asking your Guardian Angels to protect you. 

​

The Moon goes void of course at 1:35 am; the Moon is void for the rest of the night. Sweet dreams! The Moon enters Libra Monday morning. 

​

The Moon enters Libra at 7:20 am; the Moon in Libra is cooperative, partnership-oriented, social, appreciative of beauty, fair, balancing, indecisive, and indolent.

 

Moon in Libra trines Pluto in Aquarius at 7:33 am; this is a beautiful Air trine. We are seeing the benefits of Pluto in Aquarius this morning. This aspect helps us to accept the changes that we know are coming in. Our minds and perspectives are opening to new possibilities. Go with the flow if Pluto is removing something from your life. Trines help us to move with the changes. 

 

Moon in Libra sextiles Sun in Sagittarius at 3:32 pm; we take another step down with the Waning Moon.  Stoke the inner fires, practice good self-care, stay warm, and light candles for energy clearing and protection. This is a sexy aspect; get your flirt on!

​

Moon in Libra sextiles Mars Stationary in Leo at 6:18 pm; spend quality time with your partner, pet, or yourself! Enjoy soups, stews, or warm tea. This is a sexy aspect, so enjoy!

​

Mercury Stations Retrograde in Sagittarius at 10:42 pm; here we go! Mercury Stations Retrograde at 22*38' of Sagittarius. Mercury will retrograde back to 6*33' of Sagittarius, ending on 12/14. Mercury remains in its shadow period until 1/2/25! We are in a significant review period! The Universe is putting us all on a timeout, and we need to use this time wisely! We can expect people from our past to return, reach out, or they could be on our minds. I would avoid diving into a past relationship, especially because Mars is Stationing Retrograde!! This is a wild retrograde, so please pace yourself, watch your words, and be sure to enjoy some slow-down time and enjoy quality time with family and friends!
