November Forecast

							November Forecast

The end of October saw messenger of the gods, Mercury start to dance madly
backward into the deep mysterious waters of the Scorpionic realm, plunging
head first into the subconscious mind .

While we try to make some sense of what we feel, the rational mind may
struggle in the hope of finding light in understanding. But true to the sign of
Scorpio is the need to just let go and allow the darkness to take hold so that it
may be transmuted into light. If we try to rationalize the shadow aspects of the
ego self, they become disowned projections aimed at who ever is in our path.
The challenge here is to just watch our feelings, own them, and then gently,
without having to take on guilt, let them go.

Be watchful of an impulsive mind and a sharp tongue to assist it. Scorpio
brings with it accountability for our thoughts and actions, especially since the
ruler of the sign –Pluto, sits in Sagittarius, forming a semisextile to Jupiter in
Scorpio, the question must be.

Who’s truth is it anyway? , and what is the purpose of projecting our version of
that truth onto some one else reality?

Is it that we need validation? Asks Saturn in Leo, as he continues to apply
pressure to impel us to turn to our heart for the answers. A nd who decides
what our wants are compared to our needs anyway?

We do! Reply the Scorpio mob in charge of destroying the Lernean Hydra of
the mind. As overseers of this deep reflective time, there is the urge to
uncover hidden aspects of our true selves, and what ever is in the way of that
must be moved.

The full moon on the 5th of November is a key time to observe Pandora’s box
come flying open. Will we reflect, react or respond openly to what we see?
Will we judge our actions and stand in a place of fear and act out of desire to
control (this is a major theme for the month)? Or will we accept that it is alright
to sit silently in unconditional love, so that we can let go and be free of that
weight holding us down and contracting the means of communication
between soul and personality.

Scorpio brings the need for inner reflection so that we may consider our
thoughts, consider our words, delve deeply into your deepest fears and
contemplate the purpose of it all. We do not need to hold onto our findings,
but if we allow the grace of spirit into our lives, we may also find the strength
to recognise where old outworn patterns can be released and replaced with
new paradigms that help us to truly connect with our soul selves, thus
embracing and accepting that we are all merely reflections for each other.
 Naturally the next 3 weeks will bring the opportunity to examine our deepest
desires and stirrings, the need to understand will be a major driving force over
this time. The desire to love and be loved, what does love mean to each of us
asks Venus?
How do our actions support us and those around us, and where do they come
from? , are they executed in love or out of fear? questions Mars?

Later in the month we see Venus and then Jupiter move into the sign of
adventure seeking, fun loving Sagittarius, and Uranus stationing direct from
the 14th, bringing a lighter energy into our conscious realities as November
comes to a close. With Mercury also in forward motion again by the 18 th , we
may start to embrace the changes that have taken place in the first half of the
month and move out into the world seeking joy, peace and happiness from a
place of gratitude and love, with a new, more inclusive perspective of the gifts
and challenges we each set oursevles in this life we have chosen to live.
