WANING QUARTER MOON FORECAST NOV 5-13
I gotta laugh..Sometimes Life and, synchronistically, the astrology have such “whelming” and big waves that it can become somewhat ridiculous. The tragic/comic side of life becomes too palpable and one can sense “the man behind the curtain” pulling the levers of transformation. My personal aspects have been certainly putting me to the test lately, but your results may vary.
Its apparent we are all in just such a time now in the general astrology. Admittedly, for many of us it is an ongoing challenge to step back enough to get above the singularly tragic viewpoint. When the Universe/Life/Soul/Whatever sets the stage for us to metamorphose, we either do or truly suffer the consequences. Yep, true, we suffer anyway it happens…Life is dukkah as the Buddha pointed out. So we suffer our initiations, well or badly, and a sense of the comic is certainly necessary for staying upright, as well as trust/faith and gratitude. But yeah, it’s often a shitshow as well. But; As within, So without.
Annoyingly, the tension doesn’t let up a whole lot in early NOVEMBER, because of the ongoing oppositions and planets Rx. So responsibility, self-care and equanimity are still the order of the day. URANUS Rx is leading the transformation parade this month and as we head towards the NEW MOON on NOV 13th. MERCURY, MARS and the SUN all oppose the planet of sudden and inexorable change for good or ill in sequence this week. Its not all bad news though. URANUS also relieves tension like a snapped rubber band and can bring unique and innovative inspirations as well. If we stay loose and adaptable, creative and positive, we can use this time to the best advantage. Also good news, the NEW MOON will signify a slow but sure turning point in some of the energies we’ve been dancing with for weeks.
Saturday the 4th SATURN, the planet of responsibility and limits finally stations direct, but that won’t change things much as it doesn’t move out of 0 degrees PISCES until near the end of the month. Then we’ll start to feel some more traction. Sunday the 5th the MOON does its waning square to the SUN and later squares to MARS and MERCURY which could lead to some tense emotional moments that day.
On Monday the 6th I don’t think the usually auspicious trines between PLUTO to VENUS and NEPTUNE to MERCURY will help much. Just as likely to confuse and intensify issues as to inspire and improve them due to some bothersome quincunx’ throughout the day. Especially as MERCURY also moves in to sextile PLUTO on the 7th to 12th. Watch for canny or uncanny intrusions from the dark unconscious or the higher self being expressed those few days. Discern the difference if you can. What is wild is PLUTO is also sextile NEPTUNE, now (tho not exact), Its dances on and on, in and out FROM approx. 1947 to approx. 2036! A truly evolutionary and generational aspect influencing our times. I’ll be speaking more about that in the future as will all the astrologers by 2026.
I feel like staying low and slow for the 8th through the 15th would be good advice that it will be really hard to take. URANUS opposes the SUN+MARS conjunction while Mercury squares SATURN during that period when potentially dramatic, impulsive and unwise choices will be all too easy to make. NEPTUNE is there, trine SUN + MARS adding possible escapist fantasies, inebriation and confusion to the mix. OR with the right collective attitude we could all experience some profound spiritual inspirations and genius innovations. Probably a mix of both, some bubbles will likely pop, as we tumble or dance our way to the SCORPIO NEW MOON. Remember though, “Your results may vary”.
