Astrology, Tarot and More

This week Uranus re-enters Taurus,  Mercury retrograde begins 😔, a beautiful Full Moon in Taurus shines at us from the skies, and we're treated to an extended Opportunity Period!

The planets are staying busy this month! 

Uranus re-enters Taurus. Jupiter goes retrograde, Saturn goes direct, and - good news - they align in an extended trine, active throughout the month.  And, as November progresses, the Sun and Venus in Scorpio join the party! 😀 

Love, finances, and just plain old luck all get a boost on specific dates through the month.  But, there is one big fly in this lovely cosmic ointment:  Mercury turns retrograde. 

Auspicious energies continue this week.  This time, Mars is in the spotlight!  From the best day to launch a promotional campaign to the day to avoid if you're a big spender, this forecast will help you prepare for the week ahead. 

Astrology keeps us connected with the larger cycles of the Universe. As the Sun travels through the Zodiac, each month we get a chance to “try on” the qualities of that sign. When the Sun is in Scorpio, work on self-limiting beliefs, karmic "knots" (your astrological chart will highlight them), and on embracing your power.

This New Moon, in relationship-oriented Libra, is great for setting intentions to attract a happy romantic relationship, or for a deeper connection in the current relationship.  

It's also a great New Moon to ask for a balance of assertiveness and collaboration in your life, especially if you feel that your needs are not being met.  And if you need success in negotiations, this is your New Moon as well. 

Tap into the energy of the New Moon in Libra to manifest the relationship of your dreams.  Pay attention to your triggers when the Sun-Pluto square starts gaining strength.  And....this week brings a Grand Trine! Don't miss! 

To be honest with you, I get a little apprehensive when Pluto is about to visit my natal chart. 

Yes, I know I will come out stronger than ever after its energy departs. But, I also know that a challenging Pluto transit will bring some major transformation, closing a door so completely that it’s cemented shut. Whatever was behind that door is either gone, or transformed beyond recognition.  It will also connect you with the deepest reserves of your personal power, that you didn't even know you had.

This week, Pluto turns direct.  "Claim back your power", it says.  And Venus enters her own sign, Libra.  It forms a rare alignment - a Grand Trine - with Pluto and Uranus.  And that's great news for your love life, especially if you're single.  Don't miss! 

Astrologically speaking, the Full Moon is the time to celebrate our successes and progress this lunar cycle, give thanks - and then to start releasing what no longer serves us.

This Full Moon is great for bringing assertiveness (Aries) and collaboration (Libra) into balance in your life, especially in relationships. 

If you need to let go of non-constructive anger and impatience, this Full Moon is for you! 

This week, Mercury moves into Scorpio, sharpening our minds and tongues.  And it immediately butts heads with Pluto - tongues might turn just a little tooo sharp this week!  Choose kindness. 

And the bold, fiery Full Moon in Aries arrives, asking you "Are you honoring your own needs in relationships? Or have you been over-giving or over-compromising"?
