Tuesday November the First
We catch the tail end of the weekly storm as the Moon squares Saturn from its position in savvy Capricorn in the wee hours. Mercury finally reaches its square to Neptune to reconnect us with what’s true from an inner perspective. The Moon smoothes things over with harmonious sextiles to Mercury and Venus before it goes void of course at 2:00 pm. Its void period ends at 3:08 pm, when it enters inventive Aquarius, enlivening us with pleasant surprises from Uranus and the urge to expand in a challenging way from Jupiter.
Wednesday November 2
We could charm a snake from a cat’s vagina just by snoring. We could steer a tank with our diction even if you numbed our tongue with a lethartonic unguent. At 1:51 am, Venus enters Sagittarius, sign of the traveler. Mercury follows suit at 9:54 am. The First Quarter Moon falls in between at 9:38 am/9°55? Aquarius, capturing the urge to take a deep understanding and express it in a loving but truthful way, and beginning the Week of Water. We know what lies ahead, what needs to be done over the next two months to build prosperity and expand our world. Now we need to take actions that find the balance between faith and the reality of appearances. Both Venus and Mercury reach a square to Chiron, bringing to a head the need to heal that was uncovered last month. This present the opportunity to get to the core of the problem and release it, if this has not already been done. The chart cast for Washington DC speaks for the US: With Sun on the Midheaven, Jupiter on the IC, and Pluto rising, the emphasis is on leaders and leadership, particularly the vision of President Obama. Although his actions will seem to follow a separate track from those of #occupywallstreet, his populist message dovetails. His leadership will show the way forward. Weather extremes are distracting but not devastating. The First Quarter Moon fulfills the Sabian Symbol for 10 Aquarius: “A man of stature has been catapulted into ephemeral popularity, and unspoiled he plans further achievements.” (ME Jones version) This represents a Zen moment, when despite pressures to believe in the godlike image others may have, we need to stay in touch with our humanity. The more we lack self-confidence, the more we seek superheroes to reassure us. We may project the abilities we wish we had onto our leaders and celebrities, instead of seeing the truth that they lie in ourselves.
Thursday November 3
Venus and Mercury unconsciously inspire us to see and act on the truth as they each trine Uranus before we rise. Giant maple keys will come spiralling from the sky to cut off the heads of the Evil Ones and delight the children. The Moon in Aquarius helps us find the objectivity to stay the course in our relationships and lends us the confidence to take a risk we’ve been ruminating on since at least midsummer. The Moon goes void of course at 8:41 pm, until 0:18 am tomorrow morning. The tails of your schnauzers will droop.
