How have you been feeling lately? Have you noticed all of those powerful emotions that you’ve been carrying… and where they have been guiding you? We can carry a lot of extra heavy weight with us; but eventually that hefty load will burst through the tough walls – that kept us safe. Creative people who […]

November 25th, 2018: Make Time to Nurture

Waning Inconjunct between the Cancer Moon and Sagittarius Sun/Jupiter (3 deg)
Mars in Pisces trine Ceres in Scorpio (5 deg)
The Waning Inconjunct takes the expansive energy of November 23rd’s Full Moon and reminds you that it’s time to pause and look after yourself or someone close to you. The Jupiter-fuelled situation has a personal side. Or, you need to honour some intimate needs/family/security amidst the rush of bigger issues. A matter involving right/wrong, exploration, faith or wisdom has a distinctly familiar angle.
Mars/Ceres can help with the above as compassionate or spiritual actions support deep nurturing. The more you let go, allow or move with the prevailing current, the greater the intensity of unconditional care and support. This is nurturing that is not afraid to move through loss to the other side.
November 24th, 2018: Progress With Neptune Direct

Neptune
Retrograde since June 18th (from 16 to 13 deg Pisces) Neptune direct is about moving forward after the last remnants of an illusion/dream/outdated situation have dissolved. There may be a release as something fades away. If Neptune has been triggering confusion or loss of focus, this can be a time when you make some headway and progress further into the unknown country (forward means you’re one step closer to the other side).
If you have a natal plant or point at:
13 deg of the Mutable signs, Neptune will be permanently done with you as of December 27th, 2018 (roughly)
14 deg of the Mutable signs, Neptune will be permanently done with you as of February, 2019 (roughly)
17 to 18 deg of the Mutable signs, you’ll be getting your first taste of Neptune around April 2019
Mercury/Pallas
Mercury in Sag makes the first of two sextiles to Pallas. This is a quiet but positive influence – any harmonious aspect between Mercury and Pallas blends information/communication with strategy. Pallas in Libra is about relationship or diplomatic strategies, and boosted by Mercury in Sag, we have expansive communication to deliver these strategies. Meaning, a convincing way to send your message.
But Mercury is Rx, so this will be a revision of previous information, or a second request. Ask again and restrategize. Mercury direct will sextile Pallas again on December 29th, so the plan may not roll forward in its entirety until then.
For now, rest assured that this is a good time to adjust those solutions and have them favourably received. And it’s happening when Neptune goes direct, so you know there will be progress, even if it’s slow.

Sagittarius Season With Jupiter
Sagittarius season begins today (Nov 22nd) with the Sun’s ingress at 4:01 AM EST.
This is the season of hope, distant horizons, possibilities and expansion. And of course, this year Sagittarius will juiced up by the presence of Jupiter, at home in his sign. Jupiter will amplify Sag energy in general. Expect more enthusiasm, more opportunities and more optimistic beliefs (whether or not they’re realistic).
Sun Sagittarians with birthdays between November 22nd and November 26th/27th will benefit from a Sun/Jupiter conjunction. This energy will be part of your Solar Return year, which means some area of your life will be bursting with “more” – what can you do with this gift? Jupiter brings something/someone new that is (usually) beneficial. While Jupiter has been known to expand negative potentials, it’s really hard to go wrong with a Sun/Jupiter conjunction. That’s pure power, confidence and faith in the next big thing.
Jupiter is also about wisdom, so this Sag season could trigger new insight and knowledge. Keep your eyes and ears open.
Even if you don’t get this conjunction on your birthday (or if you’re not a Sun Sag) you can still do something with it (see the list below for exact date and degree). The Sun will illuminate the Sagittarius area in your chart and there could be a spot of luck, assistance, growth or a gift. Yes, Jupiter can brings gifts: you don’t have to work to earn Jupiter rewards, although if you want to make the most of them it’s always helpful to do more with what you’re given.
Or, maybe you want to celebrate. Sun/Jupiter can also mean massive enjoyment and sometimes you just want to enjoy what life has to offer.
Here are the aspects the Sagittarius Sun will make:
Nov 23rd: Full Moon (0 deg Gemini)
Nov 26th: conjunct Jupiter (3 deg)
Nov 27th: conjunct Mercury Rx (5 deg)
Dec 2nd: square Mars in Pisces (10 deg)
Dec 4th: sextile Pallas in Libra (12 deg)
Dec 5th: sextile Black Moon Lilith in Aquarius (13 deg)
Dec 5th: square Neptune in Pisces (13 deg)
Dec 7th: New Moon (15 deg)
Dec 12th: inconjunct Juno Rx in Taurus (20 deg)
Dec 18th: inconjunct Cancer North Node (27 deg)
Dec 19th: square Chiron in Pisces (27 deg)
Dec 20th: trine Uranus Rx in Aries (28 deg)
Dec 21st: Capricorn ingress

Sagittarius Decan 1 ~ Nov 23 to Dec 2
‘PRIVATES’ INVESTIGATORS. The great attraction for foreign cultures serves these subjects well when looking for herbs (Or drugs..), cures and enlightenment from far and wide.
November 21st, 2018: The Second Disruption

Sun in Scorpio inconjunct Uranus Rx in Aries (29 deg)
Mercury Rx in Sagittarius sextile Black Moon Lilith in Aquarius (11 deg)
In the final degree of Scorpio, the Sun makes a jolting inconjunct to Uranus Rx. Change, liberation or a break from the past will shake things up and challenge a deeper sense of control or intimacy. The change may feel unwelcome (a threat to survival) but Uranus’ Rx status says that you’re revisiting this issue. It’s not new, and it’s high time for that final break.
But at the same time, deeper resources or privacy must be respected. The inconjunct means an adjustment to both sides, so as the Sun prepares to leave Scorpio, let go of what you can’t control (or what’s ready to leave) but know that you don’t have to toss everything out.
Mercury/BML connect in the second of three sextiles. Open-minded words or ideals support Lilith’s outcast energy. The dangerous woman has a voice, and her message is delivered in a way that others will be receptive to (the sextile is a harmonious aspect).
Taboo issues about women’s power and sexuality can be spoken of openly, but Mercury’s Rx status means revisiting the subject that was first broached on November 10th. Now, it’s time for questions, a review of the challenging story or a second request. Perhaps this subject matter was initially so unheard of that no one wanted to touch it (BML raises those uncomfortable issues about gender dynamics). Well, what was unheard of is now being repeated.
Altogether, today’s influences suggest going back to shake things up (again).
Sagittarius Decan 2 ~ Dec 2 to 11
13TH FAIRY. This decan seems to be about hidden knowledge and the importance of using it with integrity. It is vital for these subjects to keep in contact with nature.
Sagittarius Decan 3 ~ Dec 12 to 22
DISORDERED CRYSTALS. These people are often seen as trouble makers, misunderstood, exiled and tortured for their beliefs. Need to have access to the nature spirits.
