  • Sun in Scorpio sextile Vesta in Capricorn (22 deg)

Sun in Scorpio’s depth is gently enhanced with a sextile to Vesta. Vesta’s focus is applied to an already intense issue, with just a touch of emphasis. Think if this as a gentle nudge to look a bit deeper or consider one more layer.

Focus on or devotion to a particular subject should come naturally and easily – nothing will be forced on you. Good for all matters of exclusive concentration.

Full Moon in Gemini: Think Twice

The November 23rd Full Moon takes place at 0 deg Gemini. It opposes Jupiter (which conjoins the Sagittarius Sun) and squares Mars in Pisces.

A Mars/Jupiter square is about big actions – bold, exaggerated, optimistic, risky. Even more so because Jupiter is at full strength in the sign it rules, and Mars is in fluid Pisces (no boundaries). There’s a sense of a massive push that can result in things going much further than anticipated. Mars in Pisces can drift into strange, distant waters.

Gemini is the sign of multiple choices and information, so this culmination may feature a flurry of options and words. You may feel pushed or rushed to choose/speak out, but Mercury (ruler of this Moon) is Rx in Sagittarius. This means the details of the story will have to be carefully examined. You’ll want to run faster/accelerate further, but the information will be in flux. And you may even be returning to something from the past.

It’s a difficult Moon due to the contrasting energies – bold, enthusiastic, dreamy actions/decisions versus the need to think twice and ask questions.

Best advice is slow down if you can. Look very carefully at the choices in front of you, before you leap. There may be a grand opportunity, but there’s a risk of missing a key detail or acting before you know the full story. Remember that things can change once Mercury stations direct (December 6th, 2018).

  • Moon in Capricorn square Venus Rx in Libra (25 deg)

  • Moon in Capricorn conjunct the South Node (29 deg)

  • Moon in Capricorn square Uranus Rx in Aries (29 deg)

  • Moon Void of Course in Capricorn (10:13 AM EST)

  • Moon enters Aquarius (10:45 AM EST)

  • Moon in Aquarius sextile Jupiter in Sagittarius (1 deg)

Things begin on a sober note as the authoritarian Capricorn Moon squares Venus Rx and conjoins the South Node: this is about revisiting a past relationship or self-esteem issue, and drawing that firm boundary. You’re saying goodbye or defining your parameters – pay attention to that sense of finality. Restrictions around what you want/love (or social tensions) are signs that it’s time to wrap something up.

As the Moon squares Uranus Rx, there may be a jolt or surprise that forcefully shatters any remaining limits or traditions from the past. The extremely brief Void of Course period gives you a bit of time to sit with what happened, then the Moon accelerates into detached Aquarius and makes a happy sextile to Jupiter. Watch for a significant energetic shift – a feeling of being lifted up and out. What weighed heavily on you is in your rearview mirror; it’s time to move on.

This aspect is all about future growth, hope and new possibilities.

Astrology of Now: Inferno to Paradise

A huge fire whirl, sometimes called a fire devil, roars down a road; people are incinerated in their homes; the sun is reduced to a glowing orange ball behind the smoke; chaos. Spin the globe, blood-red flowers drip from lamp-posts, memorials, statues; wrap around park benches, line streets, nestle in every buttonhole. Spin it again, fireworks, marigolds, turmeric; chaos. Red, orange, yellow – fire colours are everywhere. Jupiter, the biggest planet, has come home to fiery Sagittarius, a sign where he knows no boundaries at all. Excess in everything. It’s always worth noting what’s in the news when Jupiter changes […]
