Nov 17/18 – Focus on a vision for your future, as we kick off a powerful week with Mars conjunct the Sun – and both trine Neptune, activating a turbo-charged drive and perseverance that can propel you toward creating dreams come true. Mars-Sun in Scorpio has relentless determination, goes deep, and can release stale energies, while Divine Feminine Neptune brings a Higher Consciousness perspective, beyond 3D.

This initiates a new beginning for Mars, planet of action – and because it rules the North Node of Destiny, it has even more significance after a long period of feeling like we were spinning our wheels, unable to get any real traction. The Sun-Mars will be closely connected through Nov 22, so this can be a “cosmic launchpad” as we approach the end of the year. Don’t squander this opportunity to jumpstart a project, a dream, movement or to evolve your life!

Nov 20 – Sun sextile Pluto offers clarity of purpose, strength and conviction to your Sun-Mars vision. It also provides greater certainty and ambition to any decisions or actions needed to proceed or succeed on your mission. Tap into this powerful energy when making decisions, taking actions and making connections with others, as there is magnetic mojo if you are working
for the Greater Good.

Nov 20 – Mercury trine Chiron can be a healing, an amends, an apology from you to another or vice versa. You may have a new perspective that opens up your world – maybe you made yourself wrong (or someone else) and now you see another viewpoint with more compassion. The potential for healing is here around your thinking, words that need to be said or judgments
against yourself or others (including the global stage).

Nov 21 – Mars sextile Pluto. Continuing the theme of power moves, this high intensity duo can accomplish difficult tasks, so use it well. You will have great stamina for tasks that require major focus and energy, with enthusiasm and determination. What a way to close our Scorpio, on a high!

Nov 22 – Sun in Sagittarius. We enter into sunny, upbeat Sagittarius, sign of Higher Truth, meaning of life, belief systems, spirituality and foreign travel (and so much more!). You will feel a shift from deep, intense Scorpio feelings into the optimistic, impulsive energy of Sagittarius, inspired by social causes and sometimes zealous fervor, which is the day before Thanksgiving
and the shopping frenzy that kicks off the holiday season in the US. Sagittarius wants to say “Yes!” to everything, so be mindful — this can land you in overwhelm, with too many things going on…

Venus opposes Chiron. Take good care of your heart, as someone or something may trigger an old wound, an issue or something you didn’t even realize was still there. If so, give yourself nurturing, soothing TLC, either through Self-help tools, a loving friend or a loved one you can share with or other resources you have. But know, this is here to show you what still needs
healing. You are not meant to suffer forever. Get the help you need to integrate what is not You, so you can be whole, peaceful and free.

Nov 23 – Sun square Saturn. With the Sun in Sagittarius all hot to trot, Saturn is here to slow you down and give a reality check. This can be delays, obstacles and change of plans or disagreements about how to do things – the traditional way by the old guard vs. a fresh approach by the new generation. This is on Thanksgiving in the US, so be prepared to be flexible, as weather events or travel issues can affect what happens. Know in advance, it will be good to give yourself extra time and space for travel on the holiday, to add to relaxation – and easy does it with the elders.

With a world in chaos, it is imperative to recognize and be grateful for your blessings. Know what you stand FOR, not what you are against. What you stand for brings you into an expanded consciousness, whereas what you are against anchors you in duality (us vs. them).

That’s the trap the world is in – us vs. them – and we will never evolve from that space, which is
what we are here to do.

Wishing you a blessed, powerful, transformative week.

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

The main event this week is Uranus, the Great Awakener, that’s in the mix this weekend and opposes the New Moon in Scorpio on Monday, bringing sudden changes to shake up your life and twists to disrupt old patterns. This also gives you the opportunity to make needed changes to prepare for 2024.

Nov 10 – Mercury square Saturn. Mercury in Sag shows up with a big idea (always) – and Saturn shuts it down (the adult in the room). Mercury in Sag is full of fire, but doesn’t think things through. Saturn is the reality check, extra work, or something that either deflates the balloon or creates a delay by forcing a process to be fulfilled. Not necessarily bad, just extra work. Or it’s a conflict of viewpoints, having to defend your position or explain yourself to clarify.

Nov 11 – Mars opposite Uranus. This is a pattern-breaker and freedom-seeker. Mars wants independence and Uranus is a disruptor, activating the unexpected – and in opposition, this is a combustible duo. Could be an earthquake, a surprise attack, a breakthrough, a brilliant innovation or breaking out of a rut, but something will happen. If you feel stuck, this aspect can spur you to make a move, and if you’re impulsive- get a second opinion before taking action. Be mindful and move consciously today, as people may be on edge and easily triggered.

Nov 13 – New Moon in Scorpio @ 20o at 1:27am PST. Set your intentions and take action toward something you want to call into your life. Mars conjoins the Sun and Moon and they oppose Uranus, creating a volatile energy that can be explosive, can generate breakthroughs, breakdowns, and can

disrupt the status quo, whether world events or your personal life. The goal of the breakdown- breakthrough is always a “cosmic-upgrade,” and it only takes what is no longer viable and needs to go. If something leaves your life, know that it will be followed by something that’s more congruent with your evolving Self.

Scorpio rules transformation and power and the ultimate result is transcendence over old, stale, non-working patterns, structures and relationships. Trust in the cycles of life, knowing that whatever comes up that is uncomfortable or dark has come up to be recognized and healed, released or integrated – and you are being asked to step into your power.

Uranus rules your Authentic Self, so look at how you’re living and where you’re out of alignment with your truth. It deadens your spirit when you abandon yourself to fit in, rather than daring to be real. Now is the time to break the chains (inner or outer) that keep you locked in old patterns, living like a hostage. It is so freeing to be your Self – and you deserve to experience that, even if you take baby steps to get there. If you need help, let me know.

Neptune is in harmony with Mars, Uranus and the New Moon, calling you within and inviting you to attune to your inner state of Being and discern where you are. Your inner world is rich and filled with insights when you learn to go in and explore. The outer world is noisy, whereas your inner world is peaceful and it’s your North Star – your *true* reality. Don’t miss the beauty of the magical, nonlinear world where All Are One.

Nov 15 – Mercury sextile Venus. A flowing, social, light, easy way of connecting with anyone, but especially those who you hold dear in your heart – or expressing your creative gifts joyfully. A pleasant, easy day – and we love that!

The world is in a state that is too harsh for the heart and mind to process, so it’s important to maintain a witness space. Stay high, don’t allow yourself to be dragged down by the drama. Choose love, do your personal work to center your Self and stay on your path.

Stop judging. When you judge others, you judge yourself. Make it a spiritual practice to stop judging and see what happens. 

Projection is a Scorpio-ruled domain of the unconscious. It’s all about you. The things that bother you in others are your disowned material. Don’t miss the opportunity to evolve, awaken and integrate unconscious beliefs by living in judgment of others, no matter how it’s disguised (caring, analysis, etc.). And watch your beliefs – they interfere with you being fully present, no matter how right you think you are. Human egos created all these wars, conflicts, extreme rules and laws – with everyone thinking they are right.

My idea of power is the ability to access your gifts, strengths and talents and utilize them joyfully, in service to the Greater Good.

Wishing you a powerful, transformative week.

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.

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.
