Your well being is primary, especially during this time of dismantling, destruction, distraction and destabilizing. Nourish your etheric body and honor your innocence with impeccable care, steeped in the natural and nonlinear world as much as possible (the antidote to nervous system stressors).

Nov 3 – Sun opposite Jupiter. This can be an expansive, uplifting idea or perspective – or it can be zealous dogma and self-righteous ideals that will not bend. If you’re on a side, you’re in the game. The higher octave is to watch from an aerial view as a witness or observer – not from a superior position, but rather, neutral. Sun-Jupiter can push you to over-reach or overdo from over confidence. Stay high with humility.

Nov 3 – Venus opposite Neptune. Venus (earthly love) opposing Neptune (Divine Love) can create projections that illusions, idealized visions, deception. This is best for spiritual practices, being in nature, story-telling, music, right-brained, nonlinear activities, Being, playing, leisure, rest, movies, dancing. Enjoy. A nice “time out” for your nervous system (a lavender, Epsom Salts bath) or hot tub.

Nov 4 – Saturn Stations Direct. Saturn has been at 0o Pisces since mid-Oct and although it’s Direct, it won’t get to 1o Pisces until Nov 29. If you’ve felt stuck, stalled or stagnant, as if you can’t get traction or real movement happening lately, this may be a factor, especially for those with planets in early Pisces. 

Saturn, The Great Teacher, asks you to do your work, to simplify, to create something real and lasting. It’s where you develop inner muscle, responsibility and Inner Authority, as you learn to trust yourself based on experience. It is a game-changer.

Saturn entered Pisces in March 2023 and turned Retrograde in mid-June. You may have started something that got derailed or perhaps you’ve reconsidered your direction. Now inching forward again, you will be guided to make decisions for “Round 2” of this new model of structure and discernment in intuitive, nonlinear Pisces – and let your consciousness be in flow…

Nov 4 – Mercury opposite Uranus. Mercury (mind) opposite Uranus (Higher Mind) can be a surprise, the unexpected, genius, innovation or a mental download that’s out of the box or a pattern disrupt that breaks up stagnant energy. Saturn stuckness may welcome Mercury-Uranus brilliance – or perhaps it’s a rebellious troublemaker with a message. Info may be coming fast and furious. Whatever it is, it will shake things up. Direct the energy and see what you can channel from your own genius, but trust the blessing of the info.

Nov 5 – 2:00am Daylight Savings Time Ends. Clocks Fall Back.

Nov 6 – Venus trine Pluto. Venus wants connection, comfort, beauty, harmony and Pluto wants depth, to be ALL in, to know the other fully. A magnetic connection, it is deep, intimate, sharing secrets, passion, personal, with a power that is intoxicating. So, if you meet someone today who you are attracted to, get ready… It can be an obsession with someone or something you desire. But Pluto amplifies Venus in ways that are hard to control so it takes on a life of its own.

Venus-Pluto is here to show you something about you and your desires, intimacy – or blocks to intimacy, what you are craving, hiding, hiding from, ready to discover and/or transform. Explore to find out what it is or what it means for you!

Nov 6 – Mercury trine Neptune. The mind in harmony with higher consciousness, imagination, spiritual and nonlinear experiences. Any communications – presentations, stories, singing, creative writing, channeling, gathering circles, family constellations, dancing – all in flow, allowing expressions of Self as portals of magic. Even dreams and daydreams can be fruitful. Follow your magical pathless path…

All these aspects I have noted above are in water (Pisces or Scorpio) or earth (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn), making them all “yin” energies – receptive. Practice allowing yourself to receive whenever possible, taking in the Goodness that is around you and has gifts for you.

Nov 8 – Venus in Libra. This is one of Libra’s two home signs – the other is Earth Mother Taurus. Libra rules relationships, peace, beauty, balance. Libra is an air sign – it is mental and strategic, focused on what’s fair and justice (the scales). Venus in Libra is the peacemaker, the diplomat, seeking to create alliances, accords, agreements and harmony. Let’s see how strategic Venus in Libra operates during this time of heated aggression in the world. Your role? Can you be the witness, the watcher, seeing from above, but not engaged? It requires a level of detachment that is not of the 3D world, but higher
dimensional operating.

Nov 9 – Mercury in Sagittarius. Mercury focuses on info and details, but not in Sagittarius – this is a big picture feel, an inspired vision. Mercury in Sag can be dogmatic, zealous and enthusiastic. This is perfect for politics and religion – a charismatic preacher who stirs up a congregation is as powerful as a politician who inspires their followers.

Elevate your thinking beyond the usual 3D mental chatter and familiar thoughts to see what is available for you if you go up an octave. Rise to a higher level to find your wisdom (it is there) and then sit with it. Also, Sagittarius is freedom, so what does being free look like for you? Contemplate this and let it be part of the mix as your newly forming nonlinear consciousness is being created.

Mercury in Sag can be blunt (the Truthteller), too direct for some to handle. Here’s a rule: you don’t have to tell people everything you think. But if there’s oversharing, Venus in Libra will help to smooth things over…

There’s a lot of activity this week, especially for Mercury and Venus, thinking, feeling, exploring and connecting, with structural Saturn making his turnaround in Pisces in the background. Your world is coming into form even at the most minute level, internally as well as externally – and all this with the Sun, Mars (action) and Mercury (mind/communication) in transformational Scorpio.

Your job is to maintain a spiritual practice that helps you remember who you are and gives you a quiet space to commune with your Inner Guidance. Wishing you a magical week.

“Above all, watch with glittering eyes the whole world around you, because the greatest secrets are always hidden in the most unlikely places. Those who don’t believe in magic will never find it.” ~ Roald Dahl

“Happiness is your nature. It is not wrong to desire it. What is wrong is seeking it outside when it is inside.” ~ Sri Ramana Maharishi

As always, I am grateful for your presence on our journey together.

The deconstruction in the 3D world continues at maximum intensity. Hang in there and keep the faith, as you volunteered to be here during this time to hold the Light. Fear doesn’t help anyone. Stay high and remember the truth of who you are and what is real.

Oct 28 – As you enter into the Lunar Eclipse, what must you anchor in – and let go of – in order to stabilize yourself to move forward? A Lunar Eclipse is generally about completions or endings, but this one feels like a rebalancing energy, with a
Jupiter bridge as a vision for your future, here to help you grow.

The Moon is in Taurus, sign of practical earth, values and stability, ruled by Venus: love, $$ and how you value your Self. Take this to heart, as you focus on what needs attention to support your security and well being. Get your life in
order, so you are prepared for your future. 

The Sun is in Scorpio, sign of transformation – deep introspection, CSI discoveries and releases that can free you from old programming and patterns. This is also the sign of joint finances, loans, taxes and $$ owed. Time to clean this up (or make a plan), if it hasn’t been handled already.

 The Moon conjoins Jupiter  opposing Mars, activating ambition, inviting you to stretch toward a dream or goal that inspires you – or it can tempt you to overindulge in a vice that feels good, but gets you nowhere and you pay a price later. Because the Moon is conjunct the North Node in Aries, you are called to step into a path that enhances your sense of Self and evolves your Inner Authority. You always have a choice. Do you want to awaken or go back to sleep? That’s your decision.

Jupiter opposes Mercury, giving you lots of bright ideas or you may say yes to too many people and things, making promises you regret later. Don’t get scattered. Jupiter opposite Mercury can open your mind to a bigger picture if you utilize it deliberately, but it can lead you astray if you let it run wild. Don’t squander this opportune energy for visioning from an expanded perspective.

Oct 29 – Mercury conjunct Mars opposing Jupiter. This is perfect for planning and connecting. What, when, where and with whom? Use it consciously to create a path forward and for productive conversations to move from point A to point B.
Clarity, focus and concise decisions. Yes, no, yes, no. You will be clear. If you’re not clear, go back. Get clear. Like a flow chart…

Oct 31 – Venus trine Uranus. Perfectly timed, this falls on Halloween, so have fun dressing up in costume if that is your thing and otherwise, do something different to liven up your life. Uranus want change and a little excitement or stimulation to
break up stagnant energies. This is a pleasant pattern disruptor as a free-spirit or creative way. Have fun with it!

Eclipses often create turning points – in the world – and sometimes personally. As always with an Eclipse, anything that is meant to be (fated events) will happen, so be as positive as possible, because we don’t know what the big picture is or
how it will unfold. New info can come to light and reveal things that change the picture for you. Stay tuned…

Focus on your vision for yourself – what to release, what to strengthen and where you’re ready for a stretch. Is there an opportunity in front of you? That’s a Jupiter thing, so pay attention and feel into what’s right for you. Go within for your
answer and trust your Inner Guidance. Others may have an opinion, but only you can feel when it’s a “yes” for you.

This is a powerful time for self-inquiry and contemplation, as we approach the Lunar Eclipse. Your job is to maintain a spiritual practice that helps you remember who you are and gives you a quiet space to commune with your Inner Guidance. Take good care and easy does it.

As always, I am grateful for your presence on our journey together.

The crescendo of chaos, violence and destruction in the world continues as we move through the wormhole approaching the Lunar Eclipse on Oct 28. This reflects cosmic activity designed to deconstruct existing paradigms that are obsolete, to make way for innovative solutions, inspired ideas and ultimately, a new Aquarian world – but it won’t be soon. It will take a considerable period of time for the dismantling, the rebuilding and for the world we dream of to become a reality.

For more detailed info about the cause of the chaos, see last week’s blog post: click here.

Oct 20 – Sun-Mercury Cazimi – with the Sun and Mercury so close, you may get an insight, an aha!, helpful info that gives you direction or clarifies something for you. Pay attention to signs, info, messages you receive on all levels today, verbal and non-verbal. Don’t miss what’s available for you!

Later on Oct 20 – Mercury square Pluto – you may be faced with a problem, a hard conversation, a deep conflict or info that’s been hidden. Mercury square Pluto is CSI – it will dig deep to find the real story. Secrets may be revealed that are game-changers, but at least you will know the truth. This is powerful energy for healing and breakthroughs. Use it proactively if possible. Good for Self-reflection, journaling, exploration if you’re ready to get real and may be something you need to release in order to move forward.

Oct 21 – Sun square Pluto – You may encounter a power struggle or a situation in which you are bullied or you give your power away. Control issues are initially about emotional safety, but they become habits and are detrimental as a way of life. When you’re in your power, you can manifest what you desire – you don’t have to control others in order to do so. Again, perfect energy for healing and breakthroughs when you are ready to evolve and grow. This can indicate something you need to release – a behavior, a thought pattern, a belief that is not serving you relating to power / powerlessness.

Oct 22 – Big day, three astro events. Two aspects, one sign change. Venus trine Jupiter = gifts and blessings in earth signs (Virgo and Taurus), dealing with the physical world – nurturing your body, eating well, upgrading your self-care, having a massage, facial, showing love by sharing practical gifts to enhance your (or another’s) well being.

Oct 22 – Nov 10. Mercury in Scorpio – is CSI all the time, wanting to see what is REAL. The detective, intense, direct, covert, all or nothing – Mercury in Scorpio loves to learn the secrets of others while hiding its own. Not into small talk – it wants to go deep. And verbal communication is only part of the story, as the intuitive read is just as important – and nobody is better than Scorpio at reading others, as they use this gift to feel safe, reading the room.

Mercury trine Saturn – This supports grounding any info or insights you gained when the Mercury was Cazimi the Sun or squaring Pluto. This can help you stabilize and integrate any new info and changes that have occurred to evolve your consciousness. This is also good for making plans, vows (to yourself) and decisions regarding your future, which is grounding.

Oct 23 – Sun in Scorpio – The Sun leaves harmonious, other-oriented Libra to enter intense Scorpio, sign
of what’s hidden, transformation, death and rebirth, issues around power and the underworld. Scorpio is
like an iceberg – what you see is the tip, but the real story is hidden underneath; it is private, guarded,
defended and will be in control of every situation that is unfamiliar, if possible. This is the sign of the
healer, therapist, banker, medium, detective, CIA and researcher. Transformation: the death of the False
Self and the birth of the Authentic Self; two lives in one lifetime. Amazing, the power of the Phoenix
Rising!

Oct 24 – Sun trine Saturn – Another stabilizing aspect, supporting you in laying the framework for the
future by making decisions, setting boundaries and knowing what feels right for you. Feel where you’re
being called and what is needed to further your efforts. Practical actions and work goes to building structures that will support your future. You will know what that is – and this is the time for action while the
energy is aligned for you.

We are going into the deep, with the Sun, Mercury and Mars in Scorpio, which will give you tremendous
power to attune to your Inner Guidance, feel what is out of alignment for you and release what needs to
go. What needs to be addressed in order for your Evolving Self to live well?

This is a powerful time for self-inquiry and contemplation, as we approach the Lunar Eclipse. Your job is
to maintain a spiritual practice that helps you remember who you are and gives you a quiet space to
commune with your Inner Guidance. Take good care and easy does it.

“Consider the trees that allow the birds to perch and fly away without either inviting them to stay
or desiring them never to depart. If your heart can be like this, you will be near to the Way.” ~ Zen
proverb

As always, I am grateful for your presence on our journey together.

The escalating chaos and destruction in the world is being generated by a perfect storm of various elements, all active and combustible, with a profound cosmic agenda: to facilitate the ongoing upheaval, dismantling and clearing of old power structures and reference points that are no longer relevant, led by Pluto Stationing Direct as it completes its 250-year U.S. Return in Capricorn while squaring the Nodes of Fate in Aries/Libra (you vs. relationships). 

This is all taking place in the Eclipse wormhole (a short distance between different realities), as fated events can happen and emotions run high, which calls for special care to regulate your mind, emotions, body and nervous system. Spiritual practices and rituals are your best path forward during this time, using all that nurtures you, feeds your spirit, lifts you up and directs your attention with intention. 

Oct 14 – Ring of Fire Solar Eclipse @ 21º Libra 10:55am PDT. A Solar Eclipse is a dramatic New Moon (new beginning) with exponential power – and often a turning point, activating the unexpected to shift circumstances. It can alter your life in an instant – and if it does, go with it, whether you understand what’s happening or not. There are higher forces at work, guiding your path. Or you may feel like nothing is happening for you personally. Maybe or maybe not, but sometimes, you can only see the effects of an Eclipse in retrospect, so stay tuned. 

The Libra Solar Eclipse is on the South Node (the past), inviting needed course corrections in relationships and how you relate to others. The South Node refers to what is shaky or weak in you and
will reveal itself, whether it’s a pattern of behavior or connections that have reached their expiration date.  Look for and release any patterns of Self-abandonment to please others, to keep the peace or be “nice” no matter what, as a conscious inquiry. You have a right to your own choices, opinions and convictions and if you suppress them, you are not in truth or your power. Also, you can focus on developing your negotiating skills or create strategic alliances as a higher expression of Libra and a way to be in truth. There are practical avenues to pursue if you need support.

The North Node of Destiny is in Aries – warrior, maverick, pioneer, asking you to boldly come out of hiding and go for what you want now – or next. If you don’t know (and a lot of people don’t), let that be your mission – to discover what’s next for You. Speak your truth, explore and follow your intuition without permission, approval or agreement. Try things, see how you feel. Learn through experience what works for you and what doesn’t. Wherever you have denied yourself, this is the space for your research and development. It’s time for the focus to be on YOU. 

Eris (a dwarf planet) is sitting on the North Node. Eris is a disruptor, a female warrior and an Awakener, who is in the middle of the Eclipse, here to challenge the power dynamics and to stir up trouble. There are major war planets activated already (that’s why the world looks the way it does), and this is meant to bring up everything that has been suppressed, repressed, hidden, denied, where we’ve become blind, deaf, dumb and numb – programmed. It’s not pretty, but it’s necessary if we’re ever to wake up and truly evolve to create the world we dream of.

Guidance: find ways to love and honor your Self. If turbulent emotions come up during this intense time, seek appropriate care. Know that the antidote for anger is getting your needs met; determine what you need – then do your best to have your needs fulfilled. YOU are your job and YOU are important.  We will be feeling the Eclipse energy all week, along with various other aspects that will likely instigate reactions from misunderstandings and unclear info. This is not the week for major life decisions if you can help it, but rather, tune in for spiritual guidance or do creative work. Be slow and gentle to stabilize yourself. 

Use this Eclipse energy for rebalancing and to release anything that diminishes you, but remember to be spacious with yourself and others, as everyone is in this container of multi-layered edgy cosmic tension, aggression and confusion. 

With Eclipses we never really know what will happen, so take good care and focus on being a good human, from your heart and soul. Do unto others… and stay high enough that you can see the big
picture. 

We are in a protracted ending and new beginning as Pluto leaves Capricorn and enters Aquarius, going back and forth over the next thirteen months, so we have to develop patience as we birth the new world and are being prepared for our next level of evolution. 

“Right now the world is in calamity because it is preparing for a quantum leap into another vibrational dimension. Your role is to not be on the left or the right, to be the this or the that. Your
role is to step back far enough, to see the whole process, and to stand in the feeling tone of Oneness.” – Rev. Michael Beckwith

As always, I am grateful for your presence on our journey together.
