We continue through the waning Moon cycle this week as we approach the New Moon in Scorpio on Nov 1 @ 5:47am PDT. It’s a watery time, with the Sun, Mercury, Mars, Saturn and Neptune all in water signs, very emotional and changeable – also intuitive and potentially fluid. 

With Pluto in the final weeks of its 16-year cycle in Capricorn, this is prime time to continue releasing what’s no longer serving you – and it’s the perfect time to focus on what you want to call in on the New Moon. The abundance of water facilitates the connection to your inner world, your Higher Self and your Intuitive Guidance.

The Mars-Pluto opposition is closing in and tightening day by day, exact on Nov 3. This creates an underlying current of disruption, stress or conflict, depending on how you experience it – even if you rise above the fray personally, still feeling the aggression and destruction in the world. It will be an ongoing  feature of life in various ways, as Mars-Pluto will oppose each other 3x between now and late April ’25 (due to the Mars Rx path back and forth).

Our world will be topsy-turvy for months in its growing pains and you need skills and modalities to ground yourself and stabilize, so that you are not at the mercy of every external event that occurs. The more you can watch from a witness perspective, knowing when it’s your time to act – and what to do, the better. 

Being in a a state of panic, depression or anxiety is not helpful, so if that’s where you are, seek help to shift into a more balanced state of Being. Depending on your starting point and circumstances situations will vary, but we are here to support one another – and thankfully, everyone is not “up” or “down” on the same day. 

Oct 27 – We have a Yod (fated finger of God) between Mercury and Chiron sextile Jupiter. You have the opportunity to heal issues around communication, over-sensitivity (taking things personally), shifting your perspective on a particular issue, to make amends or forgive a long-held grudge. You can release your need to be “right,” and allow everyone the right to their own perspective. Words can be used for healing and to uplift, rather than to hurt, manipulate or subjugate others. Yes to this!

Oct 28 – This day has back to back aspects that can take you high or low – YOU decide which way you go.

Mars trine Neptune. Mars in sensitive Cancer can gently flow with Neptune in Pisces around obstacles in its path. This is Wu Wei energy, effortless actions that align with the flow of life. Soft and purposeful without being pushy; ready to put visions into action. Great for inspired, creative and spiritual experiences, leisure and connecting. 

Venus square Saturn. Venus in Sagittarius is ready to go, but it runs into Saturn, who says, “not so fast…” This is a reality check, a delay, setback, rejection or a block. You may feel as if you aren’t valued (a hint that you need to heal that issue), or a $$ situation arises. Whatever happens, it is forcing you to face something you were either unaware of or unwilling to deal with that is required in order for you to move forward. There’s a message here if a roadblock occurs – get the message, regroup and do your work. More will be revealed later…

Oct 30 – Mercury opposite Uranus. This is a busy pair, as Uranus speeds up the tempo, be it thinking, communicating or actual activities. Mercury is the details and Uranus wants to innovate, change things up and modernize. This may include automation, AI, programming, new ideas, new methods and it can include chaos, disruption and the challenge of radical shifts in your thinking to assimilate incoming newness. 

Oct 31 – Mercury trine Neptune. Harmonious creative, spiritual, intuitive energy, perfect to dress up for Halloween, to create an altar honoring your ancestors or to perform a seasonal ritual for Samhain (the Celtic roots of Halloween). This is nonlinear, deeply feeling (especially w/ Mercury in transformational Scorpio) energy, when the veils between the physical and the spirit realms are thin. Pay attention to messages that come through for you, as you may want to meditate and ask for guidance or connect with loved ones who have passed over. 

The next morning is the New Moon in Scorpio when you begin a new cycle of rebirth and the intensity continues (a la Sun, Moon, Mercury in Scorpio and the Mars-Pluto opposition), along with a harmonious trine to Saturn offering stability. More on this next week.

The following elements remain true:

Retrograde Neptune and its dissolving energy is in late Pisces until it enters maverick Aries in April ’25 – and progressive Uranus will leave fixed Taurus next July to enter flexible Gemini, a much friendlier sign for the planet of radical change. This is a very slow, sacred, significant turning point.

Right now you may be feeling extra pressure to face, heal, release, align or change some major aspect(s) of your life (internal and/or external), as the effects of the Mars-Pluto play on.

Even if your life is stable, you are surrounded by a world that is rapidly changing due to weather events and power plays (that we know about – and the ones we don’t, behind the scenes), changing structures and the subsequent rules of operating. 

This requires constant learning, growth and attention in order to reorient and rebalance yourself in a fluctuating life experience. This may feel scary, inconvenient or exciting, depending on your perspective – and know that the way you envision the future, as well as current events is through your own lens. 

This is where your true power lies, in the way you internalize change and the way you feel about your own empowerment (or lack thereof).

I operate from the perspective that we chose to be here during this dramatic time of radical upheaval and rebirth, as we usher in the end of an old era and the beginning of a future that we are co-creating moment by moment.

If you are resistant, mired in worry or feel like a victim, it is a call for healing and support to integrate the ideas and beliefs that hold you hostage, keep you small and take you down so you can access your vital, vibrant, creative energy of wholeness. 

From this space of reconnecting with the truth of who you are, you will know what to do and be able to get your needs met without excess suffering. It takes commitment to heal deep issues, but the rewards are why you came here. This is Earth School. 

You are recalibrating as you awaken. Keep vibrating at the highest level possible and focus on that to stabilize your Being as you integrate your past, present and future Self.

Shine your Light, lend a hand where you can. We are here to be part of the One Love that we know is possible.
